The point of most penis enlargement is to have a larger functioning penis. You can have a larger penis for show. Videos of men using peinis pumps and silicone show really huge penises but they are for show: These men don’t seem to really obtain normal erections. To maintain them, they use artifical devices such as cockrings. 
If that were true, I would have a shlong the size of a Buick. I didn’t get married until I was 42, so needless to say, I’ve done plenty of ‘squeezing and pulling exercises’. And the damn thing has been ‘jerked’ and/or ‘milked’ more times than I can reasonably count.
I realize that this deviates substantially from the OP’s question, but for what it’s worth I’m going to throw in my $.02 on the subject of human penis size. My advice—stop stressing about it. There just isn’t that much variation in human penis size because evolution has already selected for large human penises. Female promiscuity varies greatly among different species of ape. Female gorillas are the most faithful of all the primates. Once a male mates with her, she’s his forever and will swat any other suitor who even winks at her. So a male gorilla doesn’t have to have a large bwangawanga—his reproductive success is guaranteed, because he has no competition from other males. Female chimps are a little hornier, and their eyes tend to stray more. When they’re in estrus, they may mate with 3 or 4 males in a single day. So the chimp who brings the biggest set of cojones to the party will have the greatest chance of reproductive success, because he produces more sperm and deposits it closer to the uterus. Human and bonobo females are the sex fiends of the animal kingdom. With so much competition at hand, human and bonobo males have got to be able to whip out the Big Daddy Johnson in order to ensure reproductive success. In addition, human females derive more pleasure from sex than any other species, and female sexual response is closely correlated to the size of her mate’s penis. (Sorry guys—it’s true. They really have been lying to us since the beginning of time). The sight of a large penis also provokes a neural response in a human female which is tied into her reproductive drive. So the bottom line is that the guy with the biggest dick gets the most action, and has the greatest chance of passing on his genetic material. Therefore, evolution favors large penis size in the great apes, and particularly in humans. So thank your lucky stars that women are so picky, or we would all be strutting around with gorilla sized cocktail wieners.
The mean size of the human penis is open to a considerable amount of conjecture. But based on one study, it is very possible that that the mean length of an erect human is penis is as little as five inches with a standard deviation of three quarters of an inch. Roughly 65% of a Gaussian distribution is contained within one standard deviation above and below the mean. So 65% of all human penises may very well be 4.25 to 5.75 inches long when erect. Also, there are outstanding reasons why you don’t want to have an abnormally big one. Believe it or not, once a penis reaches a mere 7.5 inches in length, it is at the point where a substantial percentage of women will find it uncomfortably large. I’ve never considered myself to be spectacularly well endowed, but my wife assures me that it’s the biggest one she’s ever had. So in my own armchair expert opinion, I would say that if your tallywhacker measures four inches long or greater when erect, you essentially shouldn’t fret about it.
Can you give your source for all of this?
I’ll see what I can do. The bulk of that post was taken from a somewhat tongue in cheek post that I made on another message board about a year ago. The information was taken from a web page whose bookmark I long ago deleted.
Well, the herbs can help. A little. Some herbs can help you somewhat in gaining erections. They work like Viagra, just not as well. Yohimbe, Horny Gaot weed, a few others. (Note, just becuase they are 'all natural" doesn’t mean they are nessesarily safe). Now, some men who need a little help in the erction dept don’t get fully erct- which means the penis isn’t fully engored, which means it’s smaller. Better erections means more engorgement, means bigger.
Some of the “penis pump” methods only have you gain a 'soft-on" near all the time- but then you’re handicapped by having a difficult time getting full engorgement. Your penis is bigger in the “non-excited” period, whch IMHO doesn’t really help.
Other than in these cases, or in the case or surgery (which does work, but when it goes wrong, it is very bad)- there is nothing that really makes you bigger, despite what** artcouple** sez. There are Kegel and other exercises (as ** artcouple** also mentioned) that do help with the ability to get an erection and ect. These could make your erect penis somewhat more engorged- but only if you’re not getting full erections in the first place.
So- other than surgery- let me make this simple. Men- do you remember your hardest erection? The time you felt like you could hammer nails with it? Think how large your penis was then. That’s it. Nothing will make you bigger than that (other than surgery). Some few things will help you get back closer to that time. YMMV.
If I were most guys between 7 and 8 inches, I’d stop there, because I’ve heard several really hung guys say that anything over 8 inches is almost always just left hanging out-- it just won’t fit.
Oral sex can easily become a problem, too with too much size. Teeth don’t feel nice.
Being really big isn’t always all it’s cracked up to be, even though it does look great in a pair of levi’s.
Trying to enlarge past 8 inches is usually a product of male vanity, IMO, although I will say that there are a few women out there who claim to really enjoy something that big even on a regular basis.
Most women either can’t fit it more than 7 1/2 to 8, or end up pretty sore in the morning for trying, or so I’ve heard from several accounts.
We hear alot about average, and we hear alot about those hugely hung porn stars. I think the optimum size lies somewhere in between. Somewhere between 7 and 8 for most ladies and fairly thick is a good place to be, if one has the choice of size. Valid enlargement can give that option.
Of course, women vary in their size, so one size doesn’t necessarily fit all.
I’m right between 7 and 8 now, almost 6 inches around, and my wife has just started to tell me it’ll be time to think about stopping this business of enlarging very soon. I agree. I’m pushing her end, and she can feel every bit of me when we make love, because the fit is pretty tight these days. We feel like that’s a good place to be–why ruin a great fit?
The problem with enlargement for many guys, IMO, is that it gets to be an obsession, and I think that’s what wives fear most about it–that should it work, hubby just won’t know when to stop. That’s what bothered my own wife the most at first.
Of course, I’m not trying to say that if you have 10 inches that is necessarily a bad thing. It’s definitely got its benefits.
It’s just that most guys that big wouldn’t recommend, given a choice, trying to get that big mainly for practical purposes.
artcouple seems happy, and sounds sincere. That said, JDT was sincere as well.
Women tell me that a dick that big would be frightening. I’m gay, so I don’t think they’re saying it to salvage my ego.
And studies have been done on those exercises. They don’t work. They risk permanent damage to your wing-wang, too. You can rupture the corpus cavernosum and have misshapen (or no) erections on a permanent basis. Apparently there are cases of stretched penises in which the soft tissue is stretched but the corpus cavernosum isn’t, resulting in a “sock hanging off the end” kind of look. Not pretty. Though I’m not sure whether that’s the result of exercise or more hard-core methods. Either way, injuries do happen as the result of these stretching exercises. I wouldn’t try it myself.
True, but they sure are fascinated with the really big ones. When John Holmes was being treated at Cedars-Sanai Medical Center in Los Angeles, the nursing staff were literally fighting over who would get to bathe him. :rolleyes:
I’ll say what my own experiences are. I can’t speak for everyone who enlarges. I will say that I do have three and one-half years experience and have talked extensively with people who have nearly three times that long in enlargement(too long in my opinion). Two of the more popular moderators are M.D.s. One of them has gained over two inches in length.
My penis has actually straightened somewhat. It used to lean left more.
My measurements are taken after at least one to two days after a break. If they were taken at the time of my workouts, they would be much larger and inaccurate, like measuring the size of biceps right after doing curls.
I have no mishapenness. I get alot of compliments on how it looks from my wife, and that’s what I really like. If anyone is interested, photos of enlargers are available on some forums. I myself am not really different looking from before, just larger.
I have taken breaks for up to 5 months, and some loss in size does occur, but not much. Although it isn’t the same type of exercise as strength training, in my experience, it is similar in that gains are partly temporary, but mostly retained. Lost ground is quickly regained.
Minor injuries are common, just like in any body building or strengthening exercise or sport. Like those, due mostly to not being as responsible as a person could be, i.e, not warming up, overtraining, not taking breaks. As in fitness training, or baseball, you won’t notice many people crippled permanently from doing it, but it is possible.
In my own case, I have weight trained for thirty years now, and have my share of injuries, but the benefits have greatly outweighed any temporary setbacks I have had. And like with my muscles and strength training, my penis seems healthier than ever, with good erections, functioning, sensitivity, color, etc.
In three years, I have never heard of a fellow enlarger with a permanent injury or permanent impotence, or even mishapenness. I have heard the typical internet stories circulate when this subject comes up, and even seen a few “freak” photos from dubious sources intended to scare the bejabbers out of people who quickly make up their minds and refuse to research the matter any further than that. Most freak photos I’ve seen are post-operation photos of surguries gone wrong.
Injury is possible, but it’s not been my experience, or those I know or have talked to on a board of 40,000 people. Injuries are learned from and can take awhile to heal, but patience prevails. In other words, minor injury or strain is a reality–we are forcing something to get bigger, after all. It’s just not a big problem. A little temporary bruising, soreness, etc. No freak show stuff.
I’m typically a worry wart, but I’m definitely not worried about this.
I have no doubt, though, if someone tried hard enough he could injure himself permanently. Like most things, if it can happen, it most probably has happened, or will eventually to someone.
It’s not for everyone, for sure.
The only reason I’m saying my experiences is that when I first heard of enlarging, I really wished I had someone who had experience with tell me what they knew, because I thought it was just a scam, and I didn’t believe it was possible. So, when I saw the question posed on the first post, I thought I’d speak up.
I suppose if I hadn’t tried it myself, I still would be thinking it was a scam. And all those rediculous money-making e-mails don’t help clarify the truth, for sure. But, at this point, I’m not about to start arguing with the larger measurements of my ruler and tape measure. Or the improved health and functioning I’ve experienced or that of the others I’ve come to know.
I’ll get off of this thread for awhile and let others speak their piece. Hopefully this subject can be kept positive and informative.
I agree concerning the pumps. I’ve tried them, but don’t feel that they were very effective in a permanent way, for me, at least.
I know of others seem to like them, but they seem to just leave me with a case of temporary edema. However, it sure makes me look really impressive for, like 10 minutes : )
~hitches up belt~
Why, that should be more than sufficient.
My man did exercises and his penis did grow by about an inch. He wanted surgery but I said no! He visits free websites too and got his knowledge from there. What freaked me out was a guinness world’s record clip that he showed me where the man added more than 6 inches to his thing to over 10 inches!
Okay I just asked him where he saw that and he said “http://www.peforum.net” I have nothing to do with that site so if it offends anyone please take it down, but it’s a free site.
Zombie penii!!! :eek:
