I’m about midrange of the average group.

Ehwwww. That quote’s about a mortal sword wound. And you want to apply it to your penis?!? Oh well, Shakespear has been used for stranger purposes.

Hmmm…I hadn’t thought that far ahead (so to speak.)Ummm…there isn’t a good girth. But girth is good. Does that clear things up?

And if your gonna start doing measurements,I would say the widest part around the head. The widest part is what we’d notice. I leave the further details of comparision to you guys.

Folks, I was misleading.

When I said to think of a beer can, I meant it. That way, you would be distracted from my tiny penis, which is about the size of a gummi bear, without the interesting flavors.

You knew I would post here at some point didn’t cha  
Some factual knowledge in the US:

[ul][li]1 out of 200 men are less than 4 in.[/li]  
[li]roughly 1 out of 4 men are 5 in. in girth[/li]  
[li]roughly 1 out of 4 men are 6 in. in length[/li]  
[li]roughly 1 out of 10 men have a 7 incher[/li]  
[li]1 out of 100 men have eight inches[/li]  
[li]1 out of 1,000 men have 9 inches[/li]  
[li]1 out of 10,000 men have 10 inches[/li]  
[li]1 out of 105,000 men have 11 inches[/li]  
[li]1 out of 1,000,000 men have 12 inches[/li]…[/ul]  
(need I go further?)

Lets just say you could pull me out of a crowd of 6,000 men.

Of course size is **not** everything, just as important, or more important, is shape, presentation, and skill in using it.

(Just my 2 cents)

Heh heh, too late. Girth is the only thing I’m really ever even close to considering as a factor. I would probably never sleep with a pencil dick, and too big around might be a little bit more than painful.

MC, where do you get one of those excersize things you were talking about? I want one!

Heck, I’ve already used Shakespeare for stranger purposes myself: to describe blow jobs, and…err…felching…:

Anyway, sword wounds are pretty big, no?

Per your request, and since I always aims to please, we’ll try again. Mr Snake is:

Know what this one’s about?

What does a man with twelve inches eat for breakfast?

It varies… Let’s see…Umm… This morning I had two eggs over easy with rye toast, grapefruit juice, black coffee.

You’re supposed to bring it to just before climax & then measure it. Masters & Johnson did the measurement from the bottom but others may do the top.

I measured from the top, but if you measure from the bottom you get a whole _extra_ inch! (Wow, that makes me ten times rarer!) Porn stardom her I come!

Nah, that would be low. I mean if someone asked you whatcha did for a living and then you said, “I’m a adult film actor,” -sheesh, do ya think anyone would ever take you seriously, what a hard line of work involving incredible amounts of mental ability!

    - Um, do you mean, , , the widest part of the head itself? or that the head is the widest part of the total of which you speak? - I recall the picture of “the parrot”, and that guy’s looks like Yosemite Sam wearing his ten-gallon hat. Is that (the overall shape) to be considered usual, or just a reasonable variation?

It all depends on the situation:  
right now - average  
highly excited - above average  
after swimming - below average (yes, there is shrinkage!)  
so I fit in every category. And I have measured length, but must admit I’ve never measured girth, and no one I’ve talked to has ever measured girth. Is this a common measurement to take?

I still fail to see the need to measure … it is not like I hang out with a group of guys where we whip them out to compare.

The standard dick length jokes come out (my favorite still being “slap you upside the head with 9 inches of limpdick” - Christophalis) but everyone gets to make jokes about their 7foot long dick or whatever.

I have never had a desire to measure my blueveinedwhateveritwashecalledit but my SO did. Maybe it is just a girl thing so that they can compare more easily? I mean with girls, you can see their breasts pretty easy and make a decent guess … as well, girls are pretty open about their cup sizes.

Size can matter, especially if they don’t know how to use it. If it’s really, really small and they don’t know how to anything but grunt like a pig on top of me, that’s a problem. Also, if it’s very large and they use it like a battering ram, that’s a problem.

And yes, I’ve faked it just to get men off me! Some lovers are so bad that you will do ANYTHING to get it over with. Trust me, I fake it, get it over with, and don’t bother to take them into my bed again.

I’ve seen a lot and I have to say that six seems about average. I’ve been with someone that had such a small penis I couldn’t even feel it inside me. I’ve also been with someone that had one so big it hurt. I didn’t care to continue a sexual relationship with either. Neither one of them really cared about how I felt or what I needed.

I guess technique and who the person really is matters a lot more. Hell, I’ve been with people (women) who don’t have a penis at all and I thought they were fantastic lovers!

And as to the OP: I think most men DO lie. But that is the very nature of the internet. You have no idea if what someone tells you is true.
