[QUOTE=Contrapuntal] I have the same problem. I found that there was just one way to get my dick six inches long. I had to fold it in half. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE] Best answer yet. ---

[QUOTE=diggleblop] Well, all my life I’ve had trouble having sex with women. There has only been one woman that can…uh…“handle” my length and girth. [/QUOTE] A trivial search of web porn will reveal that there are women who routinely take objects (fists, donkey penises, etc.) that no human male will ever match. Assuming this whole thread isn’t BS, then my advice would be to find an adult dating website for your area or the local dating classifieds and simply let the world know you’re available. ---

The main problem with the operation is that only about 6 inches of length and 3 inches of girth can be taken away at one time. I am still trying to come up with a way to pay for my fourth one. ---

[QUOTE=Shagnasty] The main problem with the operation is that only about 6 inches of length and 3 inches of girth can be taken away at one time. I am still trying to come up with a way to pay for my fourth one. [/QUOTE] It’s the vision of the remaining girth left to you between ops that has me troubled. Do you leave you with a central core, or is it more of a linear whittling process in which you have a short-term off-centeredness with a D-shaped aspect? ---

[QUOTE=diggleblop] Frankly I’m tired of it and having a large member isn’t cracked up to what most people think it would be. [/QUOTE] I believe it. I remember reading an article years ago about a guy who ranted about how tough it was having a huge cock. His complaints were as follows: 1. “Eeeeeek!” :eek: :eek: (woman runs for her life) 2. More restrained version: stunned silence :eek: , followed by an admittance, “I can’t handle that.” ☹ 3. Worst reaction (in his opinion and mine): “I heard about it from a girlfriend and just wanted to see it. I don’t want to fuck you. Thanks for dinner.” 4. Being fucked just because he had a big dick wasn’t much of an issue. He implied that he wouldn’t mind if that happened, at least he would be on the same moral level of the woman he would fuck. IOW, he would be a partner in hedonistic pleasure, not a freak show. ---

[QUOTE=KarlGauss] Can someone explain to me why the Google ads for this thread are about “death records”? [/QUOTE] Because Google can’t believe anyone who is alive is asking this 🙂 **Diggle** , I’m assuming this is a legitimate question, so, sorry, I don’t have any useful answer. I must concede that out of all the problems I’ve ever had, this is not one of them. Ackshully, I’d be happy to take your leftovers :o ---

\ **Diggleblop** - if you’re serious, see a doctor. If you’re joking, keep it out of GQ. Thread closed. \ Moral of this story: Never get in a dick-comparing contest with a Moderator. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/questions-about-penis-reduction-surgery/371552.md?page=1)
