Penis size poll

[gsu22 187]

wow, after viewing the results I'm right in the middle at 6.5 in

[Necro71 16]

I'm about 6 1/2 to 7 depending on how aroused, and about 5 1/2 to 6 around. Not huge, but enough to keep my lady happy.

[mxdtxn774 17]

Ok, hope I am on topic with this one. I have a slight curve in my penis (Not Peyronie's disease) and I have measured many times. Sometimes the measurement is 6.5 inches, and sometimes it is 7. I gonna guess that I am doing something wrong and ask the men how to properly measure. I will also ask the ladies to help out on this. My next question is how long does a man have to be to hit "the spot"? I know positions are one thing but I am looking to be able to hit it as if by second nature.

[TNT 1,155]

I have a foot long penis with the pictures to prove it...unfortunately Teresa only wears a size 5 shoe.

Based on the poll, a 9 inch penis is NOT defined as "well hung." This I would have never guessed because to me, a 9" cock WOULD BE PLENTY WELL HUNG in my eyes. [I'm glancing down at my ruler at this very moment. ]

 

Profiles stating the woman wants "well hung" men has a whole new meaning for me now...10-12 inches...geesh!...what do you women do with big'un's like that

 

I watched a porn film where the poor guy with the 8-9" cock seemed to be taking forever to get erect; he never seemed to get it hard in my opinion, I think they did a cutaway in the film, someone stuffed him in the gal, and then they cut back to the scene and continued.

 

I've got to ask, women or men, are 9" or longer cocks ever able to get really hard? Does it matter to the guys or gals if they don't?

[TxCouple98 15]

Must admit we have measured long before this poll...and very pleased to say he offers up a nice thick 9". Some might say that size doesn't matter and is how he uses it. Well that is true to a point, but sorry I do love that very full feeling!

[TexasBlondie 15]

I (the guy half) am having trouble believing this poll and other polls like them.

 

First let me say that I am not gay or bi but I do have penis envy. Like most guys I would love to be 9" x 6" but, sad to say, I'm not. I am 6.75" normal hard and 7" raging hard so I, of course, answered the poll 7".

 

My problem with this poll and the others is that MOST of the guys that I have seen naked are as large or larger than me and I have probably seen at least twenty guys.

 

Also when the Boss (Blondie) and I first started dating a couple of years ago I asked her about previous relationships and their size in relation to me. She had been with four other guys and of them I found that her ex was 8 1/2 and another guy she had been with was 8 1/2 and only one of the guys that she had been with was smaller than me at 7"..... So statistically speaking, either she won the lotto or these polls are wrong.

 

Just my experience.

[AdventurousTxM 19]

I think this poll is very accurate. I've seen porn flicks where the guys are always eight inches or larger. Therefore, I always thought that I am average in size, and I'm a true seven inches. But I recently read from a fairly authoritative survey that the average erect penis is actually just shy of six inches. That explains why, when I have been sexual with someone new, they usually express surprise at my size. Sure, it would be nice to have another inch or two, but given the fact that I usually hit bottom when having sex with someone, I have become very satisfied with how I am endowed.

 

One more thing. I've heard people say that guys who are tall with big hands and feet are always very well hung. Some may be. But over the years, at various health clubs that I've been a member of, without exception, the longest and thickest flaccid penises have been attached to men who were slightly built and less than 5'8". The tall guys have only been average in size, at best. That's just from observing...not from touching!!

[hotblonde47 22]

I'm going to second that last comment, my man is 5'6 and though I haven't actually measured him I know there are times when he makes me gasp ... he say 61/2 but i think longer, not thick, but long. So, don't go with the hand, foot size ... it definitely doesn't work. But I'm gonna go with, and I know it will cause a riot here, the ethnic thing. My guy is Italian and most of them I've had the pleasure to experience are pretty well endowed ....however, just came across my first Irish and damn he wasn't long but very thick, so - what works ..... a penis that is hard for you (whatever the size) and a man that can figure out what works for you (cos we're all different)!

Hi Hot Blonde!

 

Well, I am 5' 7" and as I said, I'm 7" when fully functional and have a fairly athletic physique if I do say so myself.... so I don't LOOK bad as a package.... but still have penis envy. I'ts a "shortcoming" of mine. Badah Boom!

 

I wonder if they will ever perfect a penis transplant?

[two4youinswva 3,068]

I think a guy's perception that he is smaller is just that, perception. There have been times that my wife has said, "his was smaller than yours", when I thought his was at least as big, if not bigger. In other words, ours looks smaller to us from our viewpoint, and theirs look bigger from our viewpoint. Don't know if that makes sense, but hopefully you catch what i am saying. BTW, 6.5 here. But much much much smaller when flacid.

[TH1PG490 15]

I think for the most part people are hung up on penis length. I think a more accurate way to size the equipment would be to take length * circumference.

Just like when I buy a pair of jeans i want to know the waist size and the length of the cut.

 

That being said I'm a size 39!

[us2maybe 15]

Yeah, I don't know about that whole shoe/hand/height thing. I'm like barely 5'8" - 5'9" slender/athletic and I'm about 8 to 8.5" and nearly as thick as my wrist (granted I don't have "popeye" arms). The only complaining I get is that she would always like more sex or on the occasion that I hit bottom (she says it feels like its close to her stomach).

 

Still though, even then I myself on the occasion run into a larger penis in locker rooms etc. felt as if I'd like a larger member. For one, I'm a "grower" not a "show-er" so I'm probably about average flaccid - so if I see a guy who has a larger penis flaccid I'm probably going to be just a tad envious -even though I already know that doesn't mean his full hard on would necessarily be bigger than mine. Its just a common preoccupation - its almost a given that human beings obsess (at least initially) about the quantity rather than quality of matters. No different from women who obsess about their weight or breast size.

 

And with that breast size thing in mind, here's a thought fellas - when was the last time breast size truly affected your ability to have mind-blowing sex with a woman? I mean sure in the case of titty-fucking or some mammary fetish...but otherwise did it truly have that much of an effect? Probably not - and the same stands for some women. Now there are of course "size queens" - but truth be told men are the biggest size queens ever! And to be honest it'd be much easier with a larger penis to stimulate and reach certain parts of the vagina and is probably more stimulating for her visually (if the guy knows what he's doing) - but the thing is women more often seem to prefer girth to length. Us men get caught up in the "who's stick is longer game" when we should be thinking like the Grand -Am commercial "wider is better". Not that you can change that either...but you can definitely *compensate* during lovemaking more for girth than you could for length (i.e. gently inserting a lubricated finger or two to the upper wall of her vagina to stimulate her g-spot). And of course the old stand by is eating pussy...the tongue for some of us can be the "great equalizer". I mean seriously if it is or was absolutely imperative for your woman to have a larger penis she probably wouldn't be with you or you could use extensions or dildos - chances are however if you couldn't or weren't willing to eat pussy...you'd have a problem. Coupled with the fact that women want to feel desired, respected (no matter how "slutty/naughty" the behavior), loved, etc...and all that stuff comes into play too. A guy could have the perfect penis in the world...but if he didn't know how to be a good lover its not going to do him much good.

 

I think a flaw for us men is we vest too much of our sexuality in our organ...and this is coming from a guy of pretty decent endowment. We sometimes seriously sabotage sex because of our insecurities with our bodies, and often its not even that serious. Seriously - that is a turn-off for some women. They don't want you focusing on your cock so much that you start doubting your abilities romantically/sexually with them. Women tend to like men who are confident and exude a sort of sexual prowess whether they have 5" or 12", and truthfully if you know how to please your woman you have probably 120 cubic feet of other flesh to use to your advantage *especially your tongue*. Now having an absurdly small penis may not fly too well...but all in all women want to know your attention is on pleasing them...and that means by "any means necessary".

 

**Oh and on the topic of better penile enhancement surgery - why don't they just come up with a procedure where they could sorta reposition the balls back an inch or so? I mean there is probably a good 1 -2" there of erectile tissue why not reconstruct the scrotum a bit to further exploit the shaft without having to damn near impale the penis with artificial materials?**

[nyteNdelite 15]

I gave the answer of 8 but a little over 7.5 would be more honest. Hell, I never had many complaints.

[F16AV8R 18]

I dunno guys...My hubby has quite the package and it has not been the blessing you guys might think it would be. His length and girth have scared off potential playmates and have caused some of the guys we had hoped to play with to get jealous and back off. Too bad too because I can enjoy a 9" or less penis with complete relaxation without worrying about getting hurt.

 

Mr AV8R is lugging around a huge penis and I don't think he experiences any more pleasure or brings any more pleasure because of it. In fact, he is very self-conscious about it. He has been teased for years and when we swing, often the mood is broken because instead of things flowing to the next step, everyone takes a break to discuss his dick. Often the woman chickens out or the guy gets jealous and refuses to allow things to move further along.

 

I enjoy sex with my husband, but when he gets carried away, it can be too much. I wish he was slightly less thick and slightly less long. When he is flaccid it is a monster to look at but attracts lots of attention especially at Hedo. When he is engorged, men often ostracize him and women look at him like a circus animal. Makes for quite an uncomfortable situation especially when you are hoping to make friends and enjoy this lifestyle.

 

Don't put so much energy into the dick size thing. It IS NOT what we women are looking for and does not determine the level of our satisfaction with you. I am very happy and in love with hubby, but definitely wish he were smaller down there. Besides that, I am only 5'2" and HWP, I don't have any desire to be stretched out so much.

 

Hubby's size has also created another problem in that I want to have a DP, but am unable and unwilling to allow him in my ass. He is unwilling to allow another man to have me in a way I will not allow him.

 

So, for all you guys out there who think the Holy Grail is a big dick, I can promise you there is a downside to having too much meat.

 

Let's go back to Physiology 101 too...A woman's nerve endings are only in the first few inches of her vagina. When I was in college I dated a guy who was so short he often popped out when we were going at it. He was however sufficiently thick and felt very good. We dated for nearly a year and I would have been very happy with what he provided had we gotten married.

 

Hubby is the light of my life but it is because of the friend he is, the father to our children he is and because he is such a great human being I fell in love with. When I think of all the great things I love about being with him, his circus-sized pecker does not AT ALL factor in to it!!! In fact, had I not fallen in love with him, I would never have allowed him to have sex with me because it is simply too big.

 

So guys, don't get wrapped up in the size is everything hype. Don't go wasting your money on Enzyte, Penis Pumps, etc...

 

Kiss us...Caress us...Lick us and hold us afterwards...Get over the dick size issue because it isn't what makes us love our S/O's or enjoy the great benefits the lifestyle brings!

[MysticalStorm 15]

I find that there is some truth to the old saying it is not the size it is how you use it. But I wont deny that I want to atlest feel it inter. My husband is more than enough for me I actually measured him as a joke one time from soft to hard. Soft 2.1/2 in Large 8 in. More than enough for me. However as for woman I hope there penis size is 0.

[850couple 16]

I'm like TexasBlondie I have a definite case of penis envy as well. I am 34 yrs old and have never put a tape measure on it, but I am interested enough that I measured across my palm before....So 4.25" palm width multiplied by 2 palms plus a little head sticking out just above left hand = 8.50 to 9" or so. But like I said, I have such a bad hang up on the whole penis size deal I dont think I'll ever "officially" have it calibrated.

[parcarcaliente 15]

Hi there, I'm 7" so that's what I stated on the poll, this is a worry most guys have and I think most men has measured at least once in their life (if they're sex interested anyway).

 

I have to agree with AdventorousTxM saying that height or build doesn't have to do with penis size, I'm 1.85 m tall, and I have seen guys shorter than me well hung, so it's definitely just random, no sweat about it.

 

I think women has the word on this, my wife says it's better thick than long, even most guys are 6, 7, which it's a pretty perfect fit for everybody, she has had some long ones in her life and it hurts like hell, so it's not so fun, she enjoys what I have and feels great.

 

I would suggest to make a thickness poll, would be interesting to see the results, don't you think everyone?

 

take care all

[findtime 16]

I have the same problem as F16AV8R. My husband is a thick 9 1/2 inches but I'm only about 8" deep.

 

This has made it so I am unable to orgasm by penetration alone (and I was able to regularly with other partners). We have to use some kind of external stimulation as he can't go in far enough to meet my clit with his pubic bone. In addition, he can't ever just let go and pound away as he'd like to sometimes. We also have to be quite careful in certain positions.

 

The vibrator during sex works fine but then I have to sacrifice the intimacy of feeling his body pressing against mine as I cum, as he has to be propped on his hands.

 

The thickness is wonderful, but long cocks are overrated!!

[Denver2some 15]

when we swing, often the mood is broken because instead of things flowing to the next step, everyone takes a break to discuss his dick.

 

... that actually made me laugh out loud! Sorry, F16AV8R ... I'm sure it's not funny at all when it's happening. Especially if the woman chickens out.

[HotMoCpl 20]

We are still laughing our freaking ass off! It flew right by both of us until we read the first relpy!

 

The wife asks, do it measure it flacid or erectf?

 

Cheers.

[HotMoCpl 20]

Okay, I forgot what the wife has always told me. If a guy has two inches, that is enough to reach her g-spot. If he can stay with the program long enough to make her cum too...then TWO inches is enough. After that I quit worrying about my penis size.

 

On the contrary, my ex couldn't find one big enough.

 

Cheers.

I don't know if there is much you can do to take that extra 1 1/2 inch but side lying and doggie will "create some space "and facilitate the closeness you desire from full to the balls penetration. My wife has had trouble with the "banging" against her cervix so she stated to "take over" and we now go super deep and she has no discomfort . That's why she wants me thicker she's a "closet size queen" . Even though she's a size queen she doesn't like a cock longer than 8" but she sure loves them thick so I thickening up for her! GOD IT SUCKS TO BE ME!!!!!! HELP !!!!!!!!!

[JacobSky 17]

I'm 6.75" when erect, bone pressed.

 

5.25 mid shaft erect girth.

[JacobSky 17]

jrw said:

I'm 8" long and very thick about 7" around but my wife wants me thicker!!!

 

I believe that 7" in girth is really nice. That is in a good size neighborhood. Still some guys at a penis enlargement forum that I belong to are afraid that having over 6" in girth would be too much for oral, anal, and even vaginal for some women. Huh.... 6" ain't too much in the girth department for most... if so, her taste is probably an exception to the rule.

[JacobSky 17]

hotcpl4unfla said:

Good poll, but you left out one controlling factor: How to actually measure the penis to determine ACTUAL SIZE. Everyone has misconceptions about how to measure their penis.

 

That is a great point. Urologist and sex researchers take Bone Pressed Erect Length measurements for their studies. It is the only accurate way to compare endowment since men have varying amounts of body fat. To take such a measurement:

 

Stand with legs, pelvis, and spine straight.

Push the base of the ruler firmly into the pubic pad till it presses hard against the pubic bone.

Keep the ruler parallel to the floor (straight out) and measure to the tip of the head.

 

under 5" small

5"-7" average

7"+ large

8"+ very large

9"+ huge

[flassh 15]

Hi, Mrs here. We love the 6" tool because of the versatility of it. My previous BF was 9+ and banged hard on the cervix. It hurts and will not make for memorable experiences once irritated.

 

But hey, the whole thing is this. I love the confidence of a man and how well kept the rest of the body is. Hedo is like the who's who of well hung but the real sex is all about kissing and touching and real charming attitude. As the hubby says, "if the hung guys could ever learn to be real gentlemen" and stop with arrogance and "look at me" style, then, there would be more competition for the girls. Not over size, but over nice guys that no how to turn the girls on.

 

Likewise, if the short hung guys would lose the complex about size, they too would get more action and keeping the girls hornier. So, the mid-size seems to be king of style for the moment.

 

It's purely in the head of the beholder though. I love the well kept guys that seem to go right past the physical and straight to the emotional side of fun and laughter. Hubby can do this quite well and he makes others feel good about themselves regardless of the body. Drop the attitude and pecking order thing with male penis size and I suppose there will be a lot more smiley girls out there.

[txduo2000 18]

Due to a recent unregistered user's thread on her husband's fear that he doesn't measure up, I thought I would revive this post. Both to give the unregistered OP an opportunity to see exactly how vastly penis sizes differ, to hopefully give her husband some reassurance, and because this thread is older than my membership and I never took the opportunity to add my vote. Also, I think it would be an interesting thread for the bunch of new members that we have had since the last post on this particular thread.

 

I voted, of course, on behalf of my husband. lol

 

He is 8", and I, personally, equate that with "well hung" ... so go figure.

[breeder 15]

I have a nice thick nine inch cock that is girthy like a 7oz shaving cream can and curves upward and to the left slightly with a nice set of balls that hang about 7". Most of the couples I have been with the male had a much smaller cock and loved to see their spouses enjoy a larger cock and the women most certainly do enjoy the feeling of being "filled up".

[Tempest419 15]

I always wonder why men only measure the length... can't someone start a poll on girth? Now that would be a yummy, interesting thread...

[breeder 15]

Tempest 419, Hi honey I do have girth, if you wrap a tape around me it will be 6 1/2". The ladies do approve of this!

[johnjacob121 15]

Well I'm 8" and it seems to be slightly above around here.

[oreophxation 15]

Well my wife says I'm almost 8 inches and thick so I guess it is 7 3/4"s and thick...lol, maybe she was being generous. Either way I think it goes both ways, one just needs to know how to use it. I have been with women who made me feel small because they were huge, but positioning and knowing what to do makes up for everything else...

[funcpl4life 51]

6.5L * 4.75G"

 

Now, they say that 5" girth is average. How can that be? I'm "below average" and yet I really prefer not to use off the shelf condoms. They are just too tight and break too much. Wouldn't they make them for "average" guys. I use "They Fit" from condomania. (I don't get a commission or anything. ) This doesn't all add up. I'm not mental about it. There is just a cognitive disconnect. Both of the guys that we play with regularly are longer than me (one slightly, one a lot) and both of them are narrower (both some narrower, not a lot).

 

Maybe it's the condom manufacturers maybe it's just me.

Mr. FC4L

[writer4life 15]

Well I will say that question is the age old one. I am a female but my dido is 7" and sometimes it's to big and sometimes it's not big enough.

[Mhc 17]

I was married for a long time and she never felt the need to measure it till we got some swingers ad books. She started reading the ads, most said males 8 to12inches and 3 inches thick. I showed her the thread here how to measure it. Next day she comes home and said drop your shorts, as I have said before soft it looks small being I'm uncut. She just did girth, it was 2.5 hard. It was 5.8 long. She told her friends and they wanted to see a picture of my cock. When she told me that I kinda got excited when she checked it again it was 6 inches long and 6 around only this time we took a picture of it.

[SW_PA_Couple 4,024]

. . . 6 inches long and 6 around . . .

You're a freak of nature! I just measured the circumference of a beer can (Micelob Ultra) and it's seven inches around. Would a woman want to be penetrated by something almost as big around as a beer can?

[Jane1902 476]

Maybe the tape measure got turned around; 6 inches in length, 6 centimeters in girth. There is such a thing as too big to me.

[Mhc 17]

And it depends on how turned on I am. She used the tape that you use when you get fitted for a tux, and for the hell of it, I just put the tape on it and soft it's 4 inches right now.

[Bluespruce1 706]

My husband is about 5.5-6 long - not sure how thick. It feels nice but I would be lying if I didn’t say that I love the way a thick long cock fills my pussy and makes me cum in ways that he can’t. Just a fact.

[Ozzie+Harriet 84]

Real inches or internet inches?

[PSULioness 839]

I have physically measured three men. My husband was the smallest of the three. He is 5 3/4”. His friend who I am with often is 6 1/8”. I would say he is thicker than my husband too even though I haven’t measured that. The only other person I measured was a boyfriend I had years ago. He was 7 1/2”. He swore he was 9 inches, the reason we measured.

 

My husband is far from being the smallest, I think he is above average. He thinks he is small but I think plenty of men think they are small. Then there are those who think they are a gift.

 

It’s funny how some women gravitate to well hung guys at parties and others stay away.

[lovefest04 698]

I've seen many different methods for measurement. Which are you all using. Top at belly to end, or bottom under scrotum to end? I'm about 5.75# top to end and quite thick thank you, and I've seen a lot smaller and only a few bigger. So, I'm guessing the average is not 6-7" unless measured in another way. Help I really need help to put this confusion to rest.

[Jwcalgary3 22]

There is only one unambiguous way to measure, which is on top with a ruler pressed as far into your groin as it will go, aka bone pressed. You may not be able to use this full length depending on your fat padding but it is the only way to get a consistent reading for all men.

[lovefest04 698]

I'll try that and report back. bone pressed. I'm trim, 5'11" and 155lbs so the fat won't be an issue.

[Guest]

The happier you make them, the bigger they get.

[Numex 2,409]

Real inches or internet inches?

It's really impressive in centimeters. I'm 15 1/2.

[lovefest04 698]

So, finally remembered to get out the old ruler. Pleasantly surprised. A solid 6.5" and thick. walking around like a cock in a hen house today.

 

Only problem is I've notice a slight curve , more like a tiny bend near the glands. Didn't have THAT before. Two issues:

 

1. What is causing it AND more importantly WILL IT GET WORSE ? Noting on the web that makes me nervous, but no solution either. I guess all I can hope for at this juncture is that it gives my partners added stimulation.

 

2. Relating to this thread. I'll bet it's cost me a good inch or two on the old ruler.

[singlemgmguy 16]

I’ve measured and figured I would weigh in: my length is 6.3 inches and my girth is 5.5 inches. As many posters have said guys and their cocks come in all shapes and sizes but this is a fun little exercise.

[ExploringOptions 185]

I’m not a swinger but my guess 35% of men on here lie. Why are men so vain?
