hehe hi guys <3
i wanna talk about an importannt issue: penis size

u know how people say "its not the size, it's how u use it" yeah well thats something guys with small dicks say!!! im not even kidding. how manny well endowed guys do U know who says this?
when i gossip with my bffs we never say "so how did he use his penis?" we ALWAYS ask how big it was! xD

i red an article today about this and really wanted to share


The study, published earlier this year, found that penis size has about the same influence as height in determining how females rated the attractiveness of males. The authors suggested that sexual selection of this trait could explain why human's have the largest penis to body size ratio of all primates.

Captivating topic discussions on Penis exstentions:

Has anyone used a vibrator on their or their partner's penis with good results?
I know about the Cobra and the Man Eater. Has anyone used a vibrator designed for clitoral or G-spot massage on their or their partner's penis? I'm...

So which part of the body is most indicative of penis size? If any.
So is there actually any part of the body (other than the penis of course ) that has some correlation to a person's penis size. We've all heard...

Can you use a packing penis for insertion?
I'm brand new to fake penises (penii?), and I want something small and very soft to start out with. I'm interested in the extra-small Mr. Limpy,...

Extra SMALL Penis?
Same question as the Extra LARGE penis Discussion i started. Have you ever been sexually involved with someone, maybe a boyfriend or husband or maybe.

Penis size varying
I've been measuring my junk and I've found that sometimes I have like a super boner thats almost an 1/2 inch longer than normal and sometimes its...

The article contradicts a lot of previous research about human sexuality done by some of the top researchers in the field. And the worst sex I've ever had was with the guy with the biggest penis I've ever had. Aren't shorter ones better for g-spot thrusting anyway?

Apes look at other factors when selecting mates, like how blue the butt is and other things.

Judging by the abstract and title, there were a lot of "buts" in the findings. I'd love to critique the entire article (in getting my degree, I had a class where we had to bring in an article critique daily, so I've had quite a bit of practice) but it wants me to pay for access and I'm too cheap for that.

Anyway (from the abstract of the article that the one you linked is from):

"based upon female assessment of digitally projected life-size, computer-generated images," Computer generated images are rarely used when measuring attractiveness because people have been found to I accurately rate them; as in, there's no correlation between how people rate a computer generated face with three characteristics and a real face with those same three characteristics but with other human details.

" the marginal increase in attractiveness eventually declined with greater penis size" translates to "they liked them when they were a but bigger, but really big ones weren't preferred over medium/big ones (I wish I had access to the article for the full size). The article you linked claims it was 3 inches flaccid that women stopped caring after, but, mind you, flaccid doesn't carry into erect. Some men with small flaccid penises have large erect ones. Furthermore, it has been found several times that the average flaccid size for males is 3.5 inches, so, basically, all that the article is saying is that women like penis that are average more so than small ones, and that, at larger than average, they stop caring.

"Penis size had a stronger effect on attractiveness in taller men than in shorter men" which implies proportions played a role here. " Surprisingly, larger penis size and greater height had almost equivalent positive effects on male attractiveness" I wonder if they did an interaction effect analysis. I'd love to read their results section. Someone should get their hands on this article for me.

Anyway tl;dr: You should go back and read that. And I need a copy of the article for a full analysis. But this article isn't claiming that bigger is better, just that average is better than small.

As you pointed out, the correlation between flaccid and erect lengths is non-existent (grow-ers vs show-ers) and computer images have not been shown to be at all reliable in tests of attractiveness. I do wish I had the whole study to read, but like Sincerely Yours, N, I am not paying for access to it, especially when it is not a rigorously designed experiment (as far as I can tell).

Sweeping generalizations might make for interesting reading for the lay person, but anyone with training in experimental methods is not going to take this sort of thing as anything more than the earliest exploration into the subject. All it says is that women MIGHT have selected mates with larger flaccid penises THEY THINK for better fertilization, as well as preferring a wide shoulder to narrow hip.

I wonder why they chose that particular picture to go with the article? It's from the study, but it's already mixing the issue by combining the signs of sexual maturity, that is the shoulder/hip ratio, with the flaccid penis length. I think the body shape of the "guy" on the left is distorted and childish looking, while the one on the right is more in line with what I consider a fully adult male to look like. But regardless of everything else, the most glaring thing to me that has me dismissing this as nothing more than preliminary research, is that they chose only 105 females. That is not a decent sample size! And unless they are just using this study to get interest and funds for a more rigorously designed, cross-cultural study, it's essentially meaningless.

Having sex with someone who is well endowed is often painful. I've never had any problem getting pleasure from a guy who was smaller. In fact, the guy I'm sleeping with now is quite endowed and we've discussed how anal sex is going to be a challenge. However, the the past with smaller partners it has been super easy. So, there are pros and cons to each side.

Size matters but not actually in bed. Sure a huge dong LOOKS attractive but when you actually get it "parked in the garage" it's different. I personally don't like huge penises, I need 4" or 5" in length to be pleased. Also diameter of 1 3/4 or so. Anything less I could maybe work with but 2" length is admittedly too small for me.
Really it is truly what one does with their dick, if they don't know the best way to use their dick the sex probably won't be that great.

Though even if a guy has a smaller dick it's not very nice to gossip about. :c Guys can develop a really big complex on size just the same way girls occasionally wonder "is my vagina too big or ugly will anyone like it will I be able to please anyone with it?". Just something to be aware of.

What a good comment there would be guys that worry them selves sick about there small cock and gain a huge complex, well i think ladies with uneven boobs and different shaped pussy as just fine and sexy. Don't small ladies need small dicks?.

I was above average in the change rooms at sport, there was only one real big man out of about 40 and no one ever gave jokes to small dick men.

I'm okay with this. As a 5'7" male, my considerably above average size package might even out the paying field then It's a shame that height is much more noticeable for first impressions, though.
