Many many moons ago when I was newer here, we did a rather exhaustive search to post every size related survey we could find, and assessed the credibility of them all. While flawed in its method of measurement, for many reasons the Kinsey report remains my personal favorite by a goodly measure.:tongue:
The actual "average" size of a penis is under 6", more like 5.5, and it's distributed like the Bell curve. The vast majority fall between 4.5 and 6.5, with the few that fall either above or below getting fewer and fewer as the numbers get further from the mean. I don't have the numbers in front of me anymore, and don't care enough to go through it all again, but I remember that dicks over 10" are probably about one in a million, literally, and over 12"- probably only a couple hundred IN THE WHOLE WORLD!
Anyone who claims to have had sex with or known in real life multiple men in that size range are either stupid or lying, unless they have been frequenters of gatherings specific to men with big dicks, such as the porn industry or strippers for whom there is a size requirement.
Point- 8.5" is in the top 1 or 2% of the size chart. Yes, that's HUGE! People lying about their size claiming to be over 10" are pathetic, but people who believe them need to learn to read a tape measure!
