Yes and No. There is a whole scientific school of thought that differs from this. A continent, even surrounded by water, is considered a continent if it has its own flora/fauna, has geological/tectonic independence and has it owns culture SEPARATE from the closest continent to it. Greenland is too much like North America hence it is an island, Australia is separate from any other continent based on the above criteria so is it is considered a continent. Those Brits are too much like the rest of Europe.
As always, there are exceptions to this rule.
As the saying goes - size doesn't matter.
hehe, funny but again YES and NO. A small penis may be able to compensate for its lack of depth with other knowledge. But in many cases a small penis is just that, deficient. Oh wait--you are talking about ISLANDS.
