neither http://www.free-condom-stuff.com , http://www.netdoctor.co.uk or http://www.sizesurvey.com/ offers this as far as I can tell?
The one that sais “But when erect, the average white penis was 6.2 inches long” ? ( http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a2_193.html )
Because I can’t find any other article about it. If you could post the link I would be thankful.
For your information, I lost my job two months ago.
Not, I’ll wager, on the grounds that your penis is point three seven seven inches shorter than some dubious web-published average.
0.7 compared to that quote from cecil’s article. and nope, I don’t know why I mentioned it. maybe to illustrate why I have too much time to ponder about this.
Careful! lest you become a parody of yourself.
The point is this; there are all sorts of things you could be thinking and worrying about; things that you can actually change, things that actually matter if you change them. Penis size is not something you can change, neither is it likely to make any worthwhile difference if you could. I’m not going to tell you how big mine is, but yours is bigger.
People keep saying “size doesn’t matter,” but it does.
Personally, having experienced penises of many sizes over the years, I prefer them at least 6 to 7 inches. My boyfriend of 9 years was 8 inches erect! (I measured it myself) 
In some positions and angles it hurt at certain times of the month, but otherwise it was great.
In the 5-inch range, you’re not really feeling much. It’s kind of ho-hum. The last couple of guys I dated were this way. It would keep falling out, and we had to stop to reinsert. Not very much fun.
Might that possibly depend on the person?
Of course it does. If that person has a 5-inch dick, chances are, the sex (the actual intercourse part) is gonna be ho-hum no matter how hard he pounds away. Booorrrr-iiinnnggg.
Perhaps you’re just particularly, erm, cavernous.
The idea is not that size does not matter at ALL, but that it doesn’t really matter within a certain range. Judging from what other people have said, the bottom of your “acceptable” range appears to be somewhat higher than many women’s.
Fortunately for all involved, Timestamp is having sex with his girlfriend, not with you.
The OP seems to be a whiny bitch. Sorry, just sayin’.
Hey, let me help your shitty self esteem. I’m 4.5 inches! Oh damn, you got a whole inch on me. I’m also short! 5’6" tall!
nyctea scandiaca’s posts to the contrary, most women simply don’t care. At all. My GF doesn’t complain and gets off so much that there are people here who don’t believe me!
If your obession is turning to suicidal thoughts, get help. Killing yourself over your penis is beyond pathetic. And how can you say surgery is too “dangerous” yet you want to throw yourself out the window? Like, what the hell? If you’re going to seriously kill yourself, at least try surgery first. Seesh.
I’m at 5-5 1/2" myself, and it’s never bothered me. It’s enough and I get no complaints.
Relax. It’s no big…it’s not an issue except in your own mind with your own ego. Guess what? Apart from yourself, it doesn’t bother anybody and if it does. don’t screw 'em!
Boring for you, perhaps, but we are not here talking about you but about Timestamp’s girlfriend, and unless you have some Top Secret Knowledge about her, I’d submit that it isn’t yours to say “Sex will be boring for her because his dick isn’t 8 inches long.”
Timestamp has already said more than once (I’d rather not count the isolated incidents) that, despite what he believes is a smaller-than-average penis, his girlfriend has no issue whatsoever with his size and is, if reports are to be believed, thoroughly satisfied.
I really don’t think you’re being very considerate to Timestamp by posting this here. The rest of us Dopers know that you’re probably more cavernous (thanks, Standup Karmic) than the average woman, but I have a feeling that in his particular state of mind, TS might read your post and think that it is indicative of the way all women feel, thus negating all of the previous support that he has received.
Of course this is a public message board, and you’re free to share your opinion. I just wish that you hadn’t shared your opinion in such a manner that blatantly disregards TS’s feelings. Next time, you should try to be a little less harsh (“ho-hum” and “boooorrrr-iiiinnnggg” come to mind as examples of not being considerate of TS’s history on this matter), and maybe use more qualifiers (“This is strictly one woman’s opinion,” etc.).
(insert(snerk) ‘still looking for my horse and cart’ joke here).
As depressing as it may sound to say that you have a below average measurement, think of this: by the very definition of the term, 49% of men are going to be below the “average” size.
A women who prefers a very large dick, would probably prefer a fist. With good sanitry behaviour , short nails, and lots of lube far more stimulation is possible from a fist than any large penis. Not that fisting is for everyone, but the cavenous could benifit from a partner who knows how.
Look at it this way–a smaller penis means that you’ll eventually buy a really nice sports car as compensation. So what would you rather have–that extra centimeter or so, or a Porsche?
I think I’m a bit smaller than the OP, and quite frankly, the cited idea that 70% of the men of our size are unhappy about their penis size astonishes me. I can understand some men wanting one that is larger, perhaps men who are with ladies who are, erm, cavernous, and to be honest, I’ve been with a couple that I was the one asking “Is it in yet?”, but with both my long term relationships, I fitted quite nicely, and we were all happy with it. Plus, it fits in the mouth, fits in the hand, fits in the … I’ll stop now. I’m content the way it is.
I can’t believe I posted in this thread; I’m going to blush now.
Timestamp, one more thing that might help you: are you familiar with statistics, with the terms average, median, mean, standarddeviation? That might help a lot to get some perspective. I recommend the classic “How to lie with statistics”. It’s an easy and fun read, doesn’t require any mathskills, and you’ve finished it in two hours. Once you’ve read it, you’ll be immune to bogus claims in advertising, politics, anywhere. Including claims about penis-sizes being (below) “average”.
That book also describes the problem with doing research that skew results, like bias. An iexample nstance of bias is the mechanism of self-selecting testgroups that Jenaroph described so well.
