Penis Size 101

[ManOMan]

I have heard a lot of different answers. Does anyone know the average size? Erect and when its not? Plz let me know if u know

[Brandye]

Well, I have sen a few. First, when not erect. It depends on so many things. When cold, the penis and scrotum both both pull up and no conclusion can be made.

The real question is likely, when erect. I have had men become erect when I am examining them and then I have had a few sexual partners. There was a major study a few decades ago that concluded there is no difference because they all become the same size when erect. This has been disproven. Most are 6 to seven inches long when erect. Variation around this is rather slight.

From a female perspective, I like them not real big and not hard as steel bars. A large, rigid penis limits my movement and makes it difficult to get the rubbing in the right spots. Just slightly soft gives me more flexibility and more satisfaction. I often jack my partner off during foreplay. Thisa slows thing to my speed and will usually make him a little less rigid when we get to real business.

I seriously think that it doesn't matter. I think its a big myth that it matters a whole lot in making a woman climax. I think its just a head game (pardon the pun) women play. I fall on the larger end of the average but I don't boast about it. It takes more than size to send a woman over the edge. Bottom line...I think everyone has their preference.
Besides...we play the same game with women in their breast sizes. I just prefer that they have two great, round, non saggy breasts. I prefer a natural breast over implants too. Okay I got side tracked!

They always say the same thing every where. Average = btw 5 to 7 inches.
I'm Mr. Avarage then. PEnis sizes are similar to boob sizes i guess. There's a huge range and it really depends on shape as well as size.

So how do different shapes affect sex from the woman's perspective?

In my experience, a long and straight penis can feel great but can also cause a lady to go "ouch, my uterus!" And if a guy is 8 inches or more then he can forget anything anal. My personal preference is for something in the 5-7 inches range, with a good girth (which for me is around 4 inches). For me, girth is more important because I love the feeling of being filled. I'm not overly concerned about straight or curved, although a curved penis usually has a better time hitting my G-spot, which can be a lot of fun.

But honestly, I think it's all about how a man uses what he's been given. I have never been disappointed in sex because of the man's penis - the two times I have been disappointed it was definitely by the performance.

as everone has said, the average is about 5-7 inches, although most men fall into the 6.5 inch category. girth is between 3-6 inches, and most ment fall into the area of 4.5 inches. unerect or flaccid state is different depending on the guy. those who have a small flaccid penis are the ones who usually grow the most during an erection. men who have a long flaccid dick usually stay the same, they just get engorged and hard

WOW! I can't believe the wealth of misinformation. Of course, it got started fifty years ago with Kinsey's famous poll that put the average at around 6.5 inches. The problem was that his statistics were severely "exaggerated" (which he readily admitted to) by relying on the accuracy of measurements taken and reported by the participants themselves.

I don't know why guys feel compelled to lie in an anonymous survey (denial?), but it's been shown that on *average*, they'll add at least an inch to the truth even in that situation. So, you can absolutely depend on every web poll to be undependable. *

Fortunately, there have been a number of scientifically conducted medical studies in recent years that show the true average erect length to be between 5.1" and 5.4", with the majority of men falling within a one inch range roughly centered on the average. Also, the percentage of those with 9 inches and above isn't even a double digit. The average girth is around 4.75" to 5", and most men are pretty close to that, too.

Hard to believe? Of course it is. Men *LIE*. Even those who have 8 inches will add one more, and the ones who would need to add 2 or 3 inches just to be "respectable" generally say nothing instead. It's a rare man who will admit to having "only" five inches (or less), but as a faggot who's personally inspected more penises than I care to say, I will say that before the zipper comes down, I'm expecting about 5.5", give or take a half inch, and I'm usually right. Of course, I don't see nearly as many under that range as above it, but those guys tend to sit at home rather than having to bare the "shame" of revealing their "sexual inadequacy".

I guess I should say that altho I'm in the group slightly above the average range (OK, it's 7x4.75), I have a fetish for little dicks, and a preferrence for average or smaller. Besides the fact that they get harder, longer, they fit in my mouth much better. * *
