Girth: How big is too big?

Contributor: Bex1331 Bex1331
When talking about a toy, how big does it have to be for you to describe it as being "girthy" or having a large girth? Does texture factor in? What about length:girth ratio?

Note: the diamaters and circumferances (circumfri?) were paired together below by use of an online converter estimating equivalency, if I'm wrong I'm sorry but I'm too lazy to double check.

I consider 1 1/5" to be "average sized" and 1 3/4" is about my limit, so I'd consider 1 3/4" and larger to be girthy.

I feel that anything above 1.5" in diameter could reasonably be called "girthy." 1.5" in a soft material is my personal limit, at least for the foreseeable future.

And it's "circumferences." There's nothing in the singular form to suggest that the plural would be "circumfri," so it would just be a really abstract pseudo-Latin word. Unless you were just kidding, in which case ignore me.

I feel that 1 3/4" is where "Girthy" starts in general. I figure that 1 1/2" is average for a penis so anything over that becomes girthy. For personal use I think anything over 2 1/4" is big and I know it will take some time to warm up to that size.

Same here. 1.75" diameter is L and 2" diameter is XL, in my opinion.

2 in my absolute limit.

It depends a lot on the toy too, but I would say that I often don't mind 1 3/4 inches, and sometimes 1 1/2 is too much... It really depends on the toy itself and my mood...

So I voted for 2 being too long because of that... ^^

1.75" is my wife's comfort zone - she can do 2" - but doesn't like to very often.

Ive yet to meet a human being too big, but maybe I just haven't encountered one yet.

So, in my last toy review, I was going to say that the toy was girthy (1.5"). But then I went online to check out the average male penis size to see it would qualify, and no, the Internet says the average penis size is 1.5" in diameter...so, I'm just going to write that whatever is higher than that is girthy.

Comparatively, I'm starting to feel a bit loose... 1.5" is pretty much my minimum. I find 1.75" to be about average for me, and 2" or more to be what I'd think of as "girthy". Yeah, it's time to hit the kegels...

2 1/4 in diameter is my limit.

over 2' is girthy to me, but I am adventurous and willing to press myself all the way to a hard boundary.

I can't vote in this poll because I view a 3 inch diameter as girthy and anything under that as kind of thin, but that's just me.

I don't have a 'limit' per-se, either; I just haven't had toys bigger than 3 inches to stretch with. :3

1.5" - average
1.75" - girthy (my limit)
2" - BIG

I like 1-1.25 so anything over that is large.

Woah I thought about adding a bigger size to the poll but I didn't remember seeing anything bigger on the site. I like girth but I don't think I can take that much!

Eh, I'm okay with experimenting with any size, but two or more sounds excessive

4.75 inches is a little too large for me.But,at 5.5 inches and I'd leave.It's just the way my body is made.

When writing reviews, I usually call anything 1.75" and up "girthy".

yeah... i've yet to find a toy too big for me. randy is about 2" and he's wonderful. at certain points a fat toy can be amazing. the bigger the better, says this size queen.

1.75 inch diamater/5.5 inch circumference would be my limit.

I think 1.5" is girthy!

Over 1.5" is generally too much.
