If I’m reading between the lines correctly, it seems that you had (maybe have?) esteem issues that possibly centered on being overweight.\* If you could choose, would you rather be thinner/more buff or have a bigger dick? Why?

If your partner _did_ make fun of your endowment, would it hurt? Would it hurt more as a trust issue or as an esteem issue?

What age was puberty for you?

Do you find yourslef attracted to women who are smaller/shorter/more petite than average?

Do you find penis size jokes to be humourous, unfunny, or somewhere in between?

Are you aware of penis sizes in your family and, if so, are you the norm in your family?

\*It’s very hard to ask such questions on this board without offending anyone, so at least give me credit for trying.

i’ve been pretty lucky in in terms of mates and penis size. the smallest i had was 6", with a lovely girth (yes, girth does it for me). the rest have been 7"-8.5".

ladies (or gentlemen, if you swing that way), i pose a question: if you’re like me, when you meet a guy - any guy - the question of his size creeps into your mind at some point. How is your accuracy in guessing size? I’m not talking a quanitiative assessments here (_i guess he’s 5.75"_), just general guesses.

I’d say I have a 80-90% accuracy in guessing whether he’s ‘big’ or not. i don’t know how that is, but that’s been my experience so far. Something in the personality and confidence levels i think…?  
maybe this is TMI, but I’ve often wondered. 🙂

Hmm. What’s the standard way to measure hands? From my wrist to the end of my middle finger is…(rummaging around for a ruler)… 6 and 7/8 inches.

> [@](#):

10.5 or 11. In case you’re wondering, I have a big nose, too.

I would definately rather be thinner and more buff. It’s been my experience that most women don’t particularly care about dick size (assuming one has the skills to pay the bills) but many are simply not attracted to fat men. And I don’t blame them; I’m not attracted to fat women either. Plus, being fat is simply not healthy, and it would be nice to not have to worry about that kind of stuff as much.

> [@](#):

I suppose it would. I’ve had friends who seemed to enjoy making fun of my weight, and I suppose I would feel the same way as that.

> [@](#):

Normal age I guess; I don’t recall exactly when I noticed the various puberty “events.” I _did_ have to put up with a cracking voice all the way through high school, though. That was an endless source of entertainment. 🙂

> [@](#):
>
> Do you find yourslef attracted to women who are smaller/shorter/more petite than average?

I find I’m attracted to a wide variety of women, both younger and older, and various shapes. The one thing that freaks me out is women who are taller than me. I’m 5’10" though, so they’re unusual.

> [@](#):
>

I enjoy all tasteless humor, so I find them funny.

> [@](#):
>

No, I’ve never asked or had the opportunity to look.

Ok, TMI alert.

So, once a woman has a vaginal delivery, she’s rather, um, to put it directly, stretched out down there.

If you are or have been with a woman who has had a child, did you find sexual intercourse less pleasurable after she gave birth? Did she notice a difference?

I’m only asking hypothetically, of course, as my partner is MASSIVE!!

(Hee, hee, just in case he reads this!)

I have been known to refer to it as Mortimer. Not for any particular reason; I just really like the name Mortimer. At one time, I also had a goldfish named Mortimer.

I haven’t lifted weights in many years, but when I did, I got up to about 230. These days I prefer aerobic exercise such as swimming.

None right now, though I enjoy shooting and may buy one in the future after getting some better training. (I am also a gun-rights supporter.) I am also lead to believe that acquiring a handgun permit in New York City is a royal pain in the ass, so I may have to put that project on hold until I have more time to deal with it.

I’ve never had sex with a woman who has given birth, so I got nuttin’ for ya.

this thread demands that i tell a [hijack] story:

Hanging out at the local watering hole, i was talking with some guy friends when my friend mike tells me that brad has a tiny penis. i dont really think much of it, cause it doesn’t really affect me, but mike keeps on and wants me to go ask him. after another shot of jager, i do.

apparently, brad is not at all shy about his small penis. ‘oh yeah, i’ve got the smallest penis you’ve ever seen’ he says. ‘really,’ i say, and you are proud of this? ‘sure,’ he tells me, ‘it’s so cute!, wanna see?’

cut to the chase, he whips it out right there standing at the bar. and you know what? it was cute! all girls like cute, fuzzy things, right?

**UncleBeer** you’re offering one of your guns in the express intention of compensating for a smallish penis? I take it you own the gun. Care to share anything with us? 😃

Not a question, exactly, but I understand that overweight men lose some length in the natural fatty areas at the base of the penis. Perhaps if you would lose weight, you may find that your length is not as short as you think it is.

I know a gal that claims her (now ex) boyfriend had a penise the size of your thumb…when _hard_ and practically not there when soft! Based on that comparison, you, my friend, are a S-T-U-D~! 🙂

I dated a guy like this, and it really was that small. I’m ashamed to admit that it was a bit of a turn-off - I mean, not a deal breaker or anything - we still dated and still had sex and that’s not why we broke up - I just sometimes thought it would be nice if there was a bit more there to play with, so to speak.

However, 4 inches is plenty - particularly if you have other skillz as well.

Finally, **Loopydude** - 8" can actually be rather uncomfortable for many women, myself included. I guess, despite my height (I’m 5’8") I have a short vagina - trust me - a penis bashing against one’s cervex doesn’t really spell romance. Somewhere between about 4 and 6 inches is perfect for my particular kootchie.

I bet that’s way more than any of you actually wanted to know about me.

**friedo** - dude… it’s all in the units of measurement.

For example; You are an incredible 101600 Microns long!

Why, that’s a whopping 1.07393e-17 Light-years!

Chin up buddy.  
What’s it weigh in metric tons?
