I'm wondering how having a big penis has affected your life. I've always felt I was below average although I realize now that my erect penis is slightly bigger than average. But my perception has greatly affected my life. It has been a major distraction for me. I'm wondering how it has been for those who have always perceived that they have a big cock.

I always though I was average sized based on things like Penthouse Forum, where every guy was 8 inches or more. In porn, there were many sizes represents way back then (pre VHS and pre Internet!) but I still thought I was maybe on the large size of average.

I started to believe that maybe I was well endowed when I started having sex, and the women I was with complemented me on my size. After a few different women all basically call you well hung, you tend to believe them! Then I saw multiple Penis Size Survey results when they were first published on the web, which confirmed that my 7" by 6" (nbp) was indeed on the higher side.

Has it affected my life in any way? Only when I first get naked with a new woman. Knowing that those women who like the 'filled up' feeling would not be disappointed gave me some sexual confidence.

But, having a big dick does not make you a good lover! Being a good lover is paying attention to what the woman you are with likes, how she responds, and ensuring that you are doing everything in a way that maximizes her enjoyment. While most women have made remarks about my dick, the best compliments were those made post orgasm, when she expresses how good that sexual session was.

I wish there was a neutral option of some type, because-- like most things-- there are pros and cons. I have had both positive and negative experiences, though I wouldn't say that either completely outweighs the other.

It's given me added confidence in certain very specific situations — when first undressing with a new partner, or in the gym showers or locker room — but I wouldn't say that it greatly colors my self-esteem one way or the other. While on balance I see my large penis as an asset, in the grand scheme of advantages that one can have in life, it's pretty unimportant.

I'm sure that my response would flip from "somewhat positive" to "somewhat negative" (or worse), though, if not for the fact that I have a partner who has no issues with accommodating my size. I've been with others in the past where the physical fit wasn't good at all, and that would be VERY frustrating in a long-term relationship.

I have never been shy about stripping off, it's just a body after all. What I have found, unfortunately, though is the number of shallow guys that just want you for your cock and nothing else. I am a lot more than just my cock, and those that just want the cock are soon kicked to the kerb.

Beyond that I don't think it has made a positive or negative impact to my life overall.

That always happens - forget to add another good answer option. They don't make it easy to edit polls. But thanks for sharing your view in writing which is better anyway. Hearing you say that contributes to me reconsidering my narrative that my penis size distraction in my life probably isn't warranted and need to move on to more important issues and distractions.

Thanks for the thoughtful response. I'm glad its been more positive than negative due to your "lucky" partner's view!

Good answer. I'm actually okay with my erect size. I've gotten mostly compliments about either the overall size, thickness, fat head, or the feeling it has brought some partners in the rare instances I have topped. I also had sex with women who were younger and never had one negative comment. Women don't care as much. But I've had nice compliments from gay men. I've also had a couple of negative comments which I found quite hurtful but they were from casual people. My flaccid cock when at its smallest is quite tiny due to shrinkage. I'd be more than happy if my flaccid cock was about the same or just a little smaller as my erect cock - would make being in locker rooms and naked pool parties with the gays more fun and comfortable.

If you had asked this at different points in my life you would have gotten different answers. If you had asked when i first found out i wasn't small. When i first found out i might be big. When i first found out i was in fact big and after you would gotten mixed results. Now though, i know it hasn't effected my life at all. Not really.

Interesting story. So what size were you when you thought you were small. What size when you might be big. How did you realize, in fact, that you were big? How big are you?

Well last time i checked i'm 8, 6 1/2. I didn't realize i was big until a woman thought i was a massive geek and sexually challenged me. Afterward telling me i was not only big but the perfect size for her. My previous relationships said about as much but this one literally went out of her way to make sure sex happened as much as she could. Which solidified it. I didn't think i might be big until late twenties. Again, i was told here and there but never really believed it until my late twenties when i met the one i talked about. So up until then i thought i was small. As far as i can tell i was the same size throughout. It's just that the only means of comparison i had was porn. And most of that (considering camera tricks and manipulative tactics for entertainment) made me think i was small. Along with me having gotten use to my own size from the start. Making it look small considering the angle.

I had a lot of self esteem issues growing up and when my cock got big and started being noticed, it was a big help in pulling me out of that mind set. I almost six inches flaccid and I've five inches in girth flaccid. I have more limp than most guys and that is an ego boost.

Don't see your pics.
The guy above you is about 8 inches. You didn't look very hard. Too bad you are mean spirited. Wonder why...

im not mean spirited I just hate delusional people that lie

being real gets respect from me

So what is your definition of "being hung?"

Myself, I have visited the web site where one is able to enter their measurements and get the results of how they compare with the world general population. There is even data as to how many standard deviations on is above or below the mean, not average. Maybe you would be interested in checking this out.
