It's good to see someone find comfort in that realization. I like most of these type threads for that reason and don't see why guys are sometimes attacked for putting that sort of information out there. Presenting facts that might help many people feel better about themselves can't be a bad thing, and the way I see it, any guys who are genuinely large will only feel bigger if the more accurate statistics are more common...
Completely agree. It's one of the reason's I always do my best to try and demolish the myths. I grew up with a significant amount of anxiety about my size, even though by any reasonable statistical comparison I'm actually big. Unfortunately when I was younger there was less access to information and consequently more acceptance of the myths.
As a result, I actually joined a couple of PE sites when I first got onto the net. It was really some of the stuff I saw there which made me research the issue more closely. Because of that, I slowly come to the realisation, that far from being average, with a likelihood of most of my potential partners having experienced much bigger guys, the opposite was true.
I haven't actually had a lot of partners, primarily due to a number of other body dysmorphic issues when I was younger.( For a long time I didn't look at girls because I thought I was so unattractive I'd make them angry, if you can believe that). Looking back at the ones I have had, the clues were there that I was big, such as one abortive session that I was absolutely devastated by, believing that the sole reason was my singular uselessness at sex. A couple of girls even told me I was big, but I dismissed it out of hand (although none of the others explicitly commented either way).
If someone in my position could genuinely believe that they were much smaller than they are and be caused anxiety as a result, then there is a problem somewhere. FFS - even SHANE DIESEL apparently gave an interview in which he said that for a long time he didn't think he was exceptionally big.

Sort of on topic, this was a quote I saved a while back from a different forum. Hope nobody's offended by it. Just thought it was funny as crap :biggrin1:
"The lying and braggadocio on LPSG far exceeds the random exaggeration you'll find anytime you Google looking for threads about penis size and are directed to mainstream chat sites like askmen or cupid.com or any of those types of things.
It's like they have assembled the collective bullshit artists from the entire planet in one convenient location. Not just guys with big dicks, its guys who THINK they have big dicks, guys who WISH they HAD big dicks, kids who barely HAVE dicks, and of course, the proprietors of pay sites who profit on insecurities about penis size, pretending to be women COMPLAINING about not getting enough guys with big dicks.
That is not to make the claim there are no guys with big dicks there. Of course there are, just like there are here. But to your point, I'm sure the majority of guys there CLAIM 8x6. I think most of them need to read a few threads from this forum about how to measure. Ever check out the members pics section? "

The only people who could possibly be offended by that pretty spot-on analysis are the BS merchants, the deluded and the fanasists themselves.
If that's offensive, then you can offend away as much as you like in my book.
