Let’s say, 5’7 with an 8 inch penis versus 6’4 with a 4 inch penis. For guys who would you rather be, and for ladies who would you rather date?
Trying to settle a debate. I think the answer is penis size more important

Which of those values are meant to be the “good” ones, again?

I’d far rather be the 6’4 guy. Especially since penis size isn’t exactly something you can advertise, whereas your height is instantly visible.

I’d have to go with the large penis as I don’t really like tall men and penis size is indifferent to me. This is an honest answer.

Obviously, you are male.
Another “nope” here.

5’7" with a 4" penis is fine if he’s smart and makes me laugh. Anything’s fine if he’s smart and makes me laugh.

No, she took the guy that’s 5’7" because she doesn’t like tall guys. The penis was irrelevant. Really, insecure men think penis size is more important to women than it is.

So what if he is smart and there is just something funny about his penis?

If it makes me laugh, no problem. He might not take too kindly to that, however. 😃

Fair enough. Am a bit surprised to see no one finding the smaller penis to be a disqualifying trait so far.

FYI I fully expect both to be a disqualifying trait to most women. This is just to test the waters on which would be less ‘bad’ if you will.

The average woman is 5’4" - why on earth would being 3 inches taller be “disqualifying”?
Hell, _ **I** _ don’t find it disqualifying, and I’m a freaking beanpole

Being a huge dick is disqualifying, having one is an irrelevance.

Have known women to hvae the “heels” requirement… 5’4’ becomes 5’8 in heels…
What about the size then?
