mandingo size

[AlphaMale]

He was saying the ratio was the same. 9.5" to 8" is the same as 85.5" to 72" which is 7'1.5" to 6'. The point is 1" difference in penis length is a big difference. 7" is much bigger than 6" which is much bigger than 5".

Right, I get what he meant and I'm saying that making ratio comparison like that is bullshit.

There is no discernable difference to the eye between objects that are a mere inch difference in size.

Especially, if you don't have the objects side by side to compare them and moreover definitely not in a picture or video. And, even if they are side by side it can still be hard to tell the difference (I know you saw my thread about the optical illlusion).

2.54 cm makes something that much bigger - you've got to be joking, right? 2 or 3 inches, maybe... but saying 1 or 1.5 inches is that significant is pushing the envelope a little too much here.

The cervix of a woman starts generally at 5.5".

So you can't even go further than that without some force or pain.

In addition to what others said there also is tenting, the cervix rises up and vagina expands and the penis goes under and past cervix into back wall of vagina (fornix).

It might help you to think in percentages instead of in absolute terms.
You can also convert height to inches so it makes it easier to compare.

Height: 7 footer vs. 6 footer

7 ft = 84 inches
6 ft = 72 inches

The diff is 12 inches.
12/84 is 1/7 OR .14 which is a 14% difference.
So, there is a 14% difference between 6 feet (72 in) and 7 feet (84 in).


Penis Length: 7 incher vs. 6 incher

The difference is 1 inch.
1/7 = .14 = 14% difference.
So, there is a 14% difference between a 6 inch penis and a 7 inch penis.

Conclusion:
The difference between a person who is 7 feet tall compared to 6 feet tall is equal to the difference between a 7 inch dick and a 6 inch dick, 14% in each case.

Assuming that the differences in scale between 6-7 inches and 6-7 feet do NOT affect one's perception of size, then a 7 inch dick should appear much longer than a 6 inch dick.

However, we should NOT assume that the differences in scale between 6-7 feet and 6-7 inches do not affect one's perception.
Obviously, the differences in scale do affect one's perception -- otherwise, we would not be having this discussion.

Think about it: no matter how much fatter (girthier) a 7 foot tall guy is than a 6 foot tall guy, the 7 foot guy will always appear taller.
But, when perception is based on a smaller scale, such as the difference btwn a 6 inch and 7 inch penis, if the 7 inch penis is much fatter (girthier), then it is possible that the 7 inch penis will appear shorter than a less girthy 6 inch penis.

This difference in scale is why it is so much more difficult to estimate the length of penises and why girth plays a much larger role in our perceptions of penis length than it does in our perception of height.
Therefore, because girth varies, females cannot estimate the length of penises with a high level of precision just by looking at them.
And neither can many males.
Furthermore, this difference in scale between 6-7 inches and 6-7 feet is also why it might seem to a male that there is not much difference btwn a 7 inch penis and a 6 inch penis (only 1 inch, right?)
But that would be an erroneous viewpoint, because though one may perceive there not to be that great of a difference btwn those 2 penis lenghts, the fact of the matter is that the difference is just as large as the diff btwn a 6 foot guy and a 7 foot guy.
The human's perception apparatus is flawed at smaller scales, but that doesn't change the facts!

I hope this clears up a lot of the confusion for everybody...

Right, I understand that what is being stated is mathematically sound - that was never in question. Anyone in elementary school can come up with a ratio as a means of arbitrary comparison.

However, the argument as a whole is non sequitur. Just because the ratio is mathematically the same doesn't mean it can be used as a logical comparison tool.

It's extremely obvious that someone 7 feet tall is much taller than someone who is 6 feet tall - that's a 12 inch difference. However, it's not very obvious that something 7 inches long is much longer than something 6 inches long, that's a 1 inch difference. Regardless if the mathematical ratio or percentage is the same.

Yes, 7/6 or 7x12/6x12 is the same ratio mathematically. Like I stated before - that's elementary. But, 7 FEET and 6 feet is a 12 inch difference, whereas 7 inches and 6 inches is a 1 inch difference - or 12/1.


That's why, "Furthermore, this difference in scale between 6-7 inches and 6-7 feet is also why it might seem to a male that there is not much difference btwn a 7 inch penis and a 6 inch penis (only 1 inch, right?)
But that would be an erroneous viewpoint, because though one may perceive there not to be that great of a difference btwn those 2 penis lenghts, the fact of the matter is that the difference is just as large as the diff btwn a 6 foot guy and a 7 foot guy.

No one is going to look at the 7 foot tall guy against the 6 foot tall guy and say, "Oh gee look, he's 14% taller" and then at the same time look at an object 7 inches long against one that is 6 inches long and still say, "Oh and by golly, that's 14% longer as well."

In the real world that's going to be more like, "Damn, that guy is Shaquille O'neal and the other guy is the point guard, and oh yeah those two objects look pretty much the same length" - because they are going to be looking at the actual 12 inch difference in height, and the actual 1 inch difference in length... not the percentage or ratio of difference. Erroneous or not, that's the reality.

EDIT:

Let me give another example, and I'll arbitrarily set the parameters. We're changing inches to thousands of dollars. That's the same as me saying:

I had $84,000 (7 x $12,000) and now I have $72,000 (6 x $12,000)... so I lost 14% of my wealth.

My friend had $7,000 and now he has $6,000... so he lost 14% of his wealth.

Now we both lost 14% of our wealth, but which one was more significant: my $12,000 loss or his $1,000 loss?

Still the same ratio or percentage, but one is negligible compared to the other... and definitely more noticeable.

MATHLETES lol.....on the cervix issue....the aforementioned depth of the cervix is in the un-aroused state, when i woman is aroused and the penis is slowly inserted the cervix can expand to a much greater depth

 

[Riven650]

In addition to what others said there also is tenting, the cervix rises up and vagina expands and the penis goes under and past cervix into back wall of vagina (fornix).

Unless it's a very short penis, it always goes past (not into - I hasten to add) the cervix - there is nothing to stop it - and a medium/long penis will easily reach and press against the back wall of the vagina. 'Tenting' is when the walls of the vagina become engorged and change texture with hightened sexual pleasure. The vagina also opens up somewhat - particularly inside - and feels more cavernous.

 

[Riven650]

The cervix of a woman starts generally at 5.5".

So you can't even go further than that without some force or pain.

I also gotta pick you up on this one. Not sure where you got that info from but it's misleading. A woman's cervix is not at the innermost end of the vagina. Take a look at an anatomy cross section of a woman's reproductive organs and you'll see what I mean. Imagine the vagina to be a stretchy sock that can accept a cock. If you put your index and middle fingers into a woman's vagina (but let her know what you're up to, for goodness' sake) you will find the cervix. It feels, and looks like, a big nipple on the inside front wall. You can reach it so it's only about 3"-"4" in. But that measurement is approximate as the vagina is flexible, and comes in different sizes (as do penises). The penis glides painlessly past the cervix during sex. 'Hitting my cervix' is what a woman might say if she's being penetrated too deeply, but it doesn't mean that. What she should be saying is that her vagina is being stretched too far, and/or her bladder, bowel or kidneys, etc. are experiencing pain from being jabbed.
(I'm pretty sure I have that right. Is there a doctor in the house who'd like to edit this?)

With the height and penis length analogy you would have to know the average and standard deviations. One extra inch of penis length might be like 4" of height; it's noticeable and significant but not a huge difference. On the other hand, some women have said that the difference in men's height of 5'11" and 6'3" is a huge difference to them, so maybe 1" of penis length is also huge.

 

[DeepCurve]

If you mean in porn inches, or e-penis inches, he's easily over a foot. :biggrin1:

But if you mean IRL, I'd have to agree with Joe Montana and Optimum on this one. Based on in-picture proportions with other objects, such as hands, I'd guess Lex is around 9" and Mandingo a bit larger, but probably not by a full inch. I seriously doubt Mandingo is over 10". For one thing, he's a short dude like 5'7", and that always skews the proportions. They like to pair him with tiny petite chicks who are like 5'1", to keep it looking consistent and not destroy the illusion. They used to do the same thing with Jeff Stryker, who's also short of stature and in reality only about 7", not the 10" he was billed with.

As for any of these guys claiming a foot, the only foot is in their mouths. It's called marketing, as in hype. And in the porn world, few can afford to be honest. There's a vid I remember where somebody asks Peter North how big his dick is, and he replies matter-of-factly, "eight inches." They exclaim "It's got to be bigger than that!" and he replies: "No it doesn't." Classic! And right on target. Peter's a hung dude, but not near as big as Mandingo. OTOH he doesn't leave two inches of his cock outside almost every girl he works with, either. :tongue:

Porn is about fantasy. It should surprise no one that exaggeration and distortion are the industry's stock-in-trade. IRL an endowment like Mandingo's that's pushing 10" would be more of a liability than anything else.

On the other hand, some women have said that the difference in men's height of 5'11" and 6'3" is a huge difference to them, so maybe 1" of penis length is also huge.

Ok, last thing I'm saying about this and then I'm done, cause the original argument is completely asinine and probably one of the dumbest things I've ever wasted my time replying to. :smashfreakB:

You're comparing apples and oranges - human height and object length... and the way both are viewed. They are two things that are obviously COMPLETELY DIFFERENT no matter how an individual views them. The OP of the analogy and a couple posters are the only ones who have given them some sort of pseudo-comparative value or correlation.

To even do statistical analysis like average or standard deviation (statistics is a bullshit field btw, if you haven't realized that in life by now) there has to be some sort of correlation.

"..One extra inch of penis length might be like 4" of height; it's noticeable and significant but not a huge difference..."

How is it noticeable and significant, but not a huge difference? Only a blind person would not be able to tell someone who is 6'3" is not significantly taller than someone is is 5'11".

"...On the other hand, some women have said that the difference in men's height of 5'11" and 6'3" is a huge difference to them, so maybe 1" of penis length is also huge."

Right, they are infinitely correct in thinking that someone being 6'3" VS 5'11" is a huge height difference. No man or woman is ever going to think the person who is 5'11" is taller.

Now concerning 1" of penis length... they might verbally express that to them, it is a huge difference. However, if they couldn't actually (or easily) tell the difference between 1 inch of penis length... then is it really that huge of a difference? That's basically my overall point here. Obviously (again, and again) someone could simply state that .00001 inch difference in penis size is a HUGE difference to them, but if they couldn't even tell the difference is that really logical?

Your (plural) argument's would be much more sound if you were just talking about 1 inch of human height VS 1 inch of human penis length. It is actually very hard to tell the difference in height between say someone who is 6'1" and someone who is 6'0" - that argument makes sense.

Why you all insist in trying to give significant human height differences and insignificant penis length differences some type of correlation is beyond me. Make your falsely interpreted ratios even easier to falsely interpret by using something closer to 1:1.

OK, that's a pretty dumb thing to say. Statistics are used in so many useful ways in science and engineering. But if you are talking about things like political polls and their interpretations, then you may have a point. BUt usually I'd suspect the people are incorrectly interpreting/applying the stats.

"..One extra inch of penis length might be like 4" of height; it's noticeable and significant but not a huge difference..."

How is it noticeable and significant, but not a huge difference? Only a blind person would not be able to tell someone who is 6'3" is not significantly taller than someone is is 5'11".

Because "huge" is bigger than "significant." It's just a matter what the words mean.

"...On the other hand, some women have said that the difference in men's height of 5'11" and 6'3" is a huge difference to them, so maybe 1" of penis length is also huge."

Right, they are infinitely correct in thinking that someone being 6'3" VS 5'11" is a huge height difference. No man or woman is ever going to think the person who is 5'11" is taller.

My point is a man that is 5'11" with a similar build to a man that is 6'3" I wouldn't think would matter much to women, but I was surprised to hear that it made a big difference in how attracted some women are to them.

Now concerning 1" of penis length... they might verbally express that to them, it is a huge difference. However, if they couldn't actually (or easily) tell the difference between 1 inch of penis length... then is it really that huge of a difference? That's basically my overall point here. Obviously (again, and again) someone could simply state that .00001 inch difference in penis size is a HUGE difference to them, but if they couldn't even tell the difference is that really logical?

But I bet people could tell the difference between a 6" and a 7" penis. Just put two objects with those lengths next to each other and you can very quickly see which is longer. In practice people don't get to compare the penises of their partners right next to each other, but I'd still think they could usually tell the difference. But just like a tall person that slouches a lot might appear shorter, a bigger penis that isn't used well may seem smaller to the recipient. So in practice the 1" extra length will be noticed visually and in sexual pleasure and the apparent length will be based on those things.

Your (plural) argument's would be much more sound if you were just talking about 1 inch of human height VS 1 inch of human penis length. It is actually very hard to tell the difference in height between say someone who is 6'1" and someone who is 6'0" - that argument makes sense.

Why you all insist in trying to give significant human height differences and insignificant penis length differences some type of correlation is beyond me. Make your falsely interpreted ratios even easier to falsely interpret by using something closer to 1:1.

I guess we'll have to disagree. The ratio seems to be the correct way to look at things when comparing.

 

[Fable]

lol i love discussions such as these because it reveals all the people who are in fact lying about their penis size.

Without out counting the curve in my penis which takes off a good amount of length I'm 6.5 erect, yet when I look in my mirror, a common house hold item, I appear to be the same length as what some of these porn directors would have you believe is 8 or 9 inches. Now that presents us with a dilema. Either they are jamming the ruler into their pelvic bone, which I don't do, or they are LYING!!!

I know this hard for some of you to swallow, that people in media lie, but it does in fact happen. Don't believe everything you're told.

Take for example how every other person on this thread says they are at least 7.5. If these individuals were really 7.5 inches minimum, they would be able to accurately assess the penis size of not only these porn actors, but other people on these forums. The fact that they are deficient in this matter is a testament in itself that even on a forum for abnormally large penises we still have the need for lying and deception.

Now ask yourself why is Mandingo or Lextington Steele any more believable than anyone in this discussion? If anything he is less trustworthy because he stands to gain something from lying.

I feel once you honestly judge the the logic of this argument you will truly see that mandingo isn't 12 damn inches as he is often billed. I might give him 10 and that's a stretch. But once again I actually have something to compare with, my dick, and for those of you lying about your penis size don't make it so obvious by gawking at another man's cock and grossly overestimating it's length.

 

[B_Joe Montana]

Fable dont be angry because on a good day you dont even have 5 inches. Based on the countless movies this dude has been in he is at least 10 plus inches and that is a low guess.

Say what you want, as it just proves my point, you have in no way harmed my argument. If you really think Mandingo is over 10 inches after looking at your own penis in the mirror then you must either have a very small penis or be completely brainwashed. Either way you prove my point.

We don't like such shit here at LPSG. Slow down or you'll have not that many friends here.

 

[contortionist]

I really don't understand why so many find it difficult to just ACCEPT these claims. I'm pretty sure the foot long claims are purely a marketing ploy but these monsters exist out there. 2 boys at my school were both about 10''. We were constantly measuring them and watching them jerk off and although they were a lot longer than the rest of us, there were plenty of others around 7-8''. Perhaps the modestly hung guy is a bit envious

There are pros to having a cock the size of mandigos but their are also cons. I'm happy with my size, bigger than average and enough to get the job done with out sacrificing penetration or spending hours on fore play.

 

[B_Joe Montana]

Fable you have no point because you never met Mandingo, you have never measured his dick. You only know you aren't packing and Mandingo is alot bigger than you are. You proved my point, you are a jealous little boy who has a small dick. Live with it.

 

[Cuban]

dude that is easy to find the differences.. just multiply the numbers to equal 100 and do the same thing with the others.. like

5.8" is 72% of 8"

with height,,

in order to get the same percentage, the difference will be from a person who is 5'11" to someone who is 8ft tall... while there are only like 2-3 people in the world that tall.. maybe there is no correlation since we are taking these stats of height of the tallest around the world, where I doubt there are any 10 inchers in china.. is a bit difficult.. someone may want to do the math..

trying to compare them gives an error..
