Exaggerating cock size?

If I exaggerate about size I usually say it is smaller than what it is, just to get some people to leave me alone. In all honesty, I still don't know my size, I've said that Ive measured, and few know my real size but, for the most part i think measuring is difficult for one to do acurately by oneself. So if anyone asks I'm 6x5 inches.:cool:
 
I thought getting accurate measurments was even more difficult because guys have varying degrees of arousal, as what I read about here.

Another thing I've noticed in judging size, but of people's height, is when someone, in terms of pure inches only, is, for example, 4 inches taller than someone else. In some ways that 4" doesn't sound too significant until I see the taller person standing next to the shorter person, who suddenly looks smaller (or, in turn, when it comes to the taller person, suddenly looks bigger) than I thought he or she would be.

I'm guessing the same kind of optical effect applies to other aspects of people's body parts.

You are huge, since you are way above avaerage in length and girth. I'm 7" by 6" and I've been called huge, thick, big, etc. by almost every woman I have been with.

Same here. Not that experienced, but I've been called thick, big, well-endowed, "it's a cobra" (hence the nickname). I'll admit I've never been called "huge" (not yet, anyways...), but I would not necessarily consider myself huge (I'm 8" by 5.75").
 
1.) Women dont usually go around measuring dicks, the men do that. Beacuse of this there are extreme exxagerations on the womens part. How many times have i heard a girl say that her dude is 10 inches, stretching her arms way out in gesture? Its a bonified luagh for sure.

2.) I forgot where i was going with this....but in any case averages dont measure jack, when we live in a world of extremes. Being larger then average is no accomplishment, beacuse averages were only put in place for those of lesser intelligence, and essentially mean very little. Much like curse words actually.
 
Yeah, I'm sure some people exaggerate their size, but there are some legitimately hung people here. I agree with Madame Zora's stats on size too because most guys you'll meet will fall into the 5-7 inch range, with the average being a little less than 6. Guys with 8+ inches are very rare.

I'm not really sure where you're going with this either. The "average" penis size, or an "average" anything does mean something and is a valid measurement. People do not tend towards extremes at all - the distribution of penis sizes, weight, height, etc. follows a bell-shaped curve. Essentially, this means that some people will have the "average", i.e. mean value. Most (around 50%) will be within one standaed deviation either side of the mean, probably 4-7". As the sizes become more extreme, there will be fewer people who possess them.

I don't know why you think averages are for people of limited intelligence. Knowledge of how a population behaves, or how a particular characteristic measures on average, is essential in pubkic health, medicine, business. Unless what you mean is that we shouldn't make assumptions about a person based on the "average person", which is very true - this can be dangerous in personal relationships as well as in science.
 
all im saying is, if you have 5 guys who have dicks that are 10 inches long, and 5 guys who are 3 inches long, you get an average of 6.5.

What does this tell us about those men? Nothing. It tells us that the average numerical size of their totals length is 6.5. So would people assume that in a large group of men like such as this, that at least half of them are an average 6 inches? In this case, averages only build up assumptions.

Yes there is proof that many, MANY men are the current average of 6. BUT, what if NO MAN were that size at all? WHat if all men were either extremly huge, or extremely small? We would still get a medium average, and that would serve no purpose. It would only cause assumptions.

Of course i understand the pupose of averages in a general sense, but in the case of penis size, it just doesnt serve any purpose. It only gives false hope. I could even go as far as to discuss the fact that when taking these "averages," that many men will not be honest about the size of their penis, and add one, two, or perhaps even 3 inches, thus destroying the entire equation.

Im sure im preaching to the choir with this one cuz you seem like some sort of mathemetician. In any case my opinion stays. though i will state that instead of measuring "jack, it measures something, that tells us very little, in the oh so comical world f penises
 
Very very Very interesting thread.

I dont know if this adds anything...

I have a 6.75 x 5.5 cock measured from topside. I am also 6'4 and 200lbs. I kinda feel out of proportion (penis a bit small) with a large body and a somewhat avergage / above average penis. However - I've had sex with 5 women. 2 said mine was quite big, 2 said nothing but were satisfied, and the last made me stop cause she was feeling pain.

My exgirlfriend - who is one who thought I was big - was a tiny phillipino girl who had also only had asian boyfriends, but she said I was able to hit her cervix. Interesting feeling, but I cant imagine having anything longer would be fun for me in that instance because I like giving the deep dicking :) I had to be careful and that kinda sucked.

I never used to consider myself "big" and dont really now

Photographically I dont look very great. maybe i will verify myself sometime but I dont see the need.

In conclusion i think most women will probably be satisfied with the average.

So, there is my case study...i thought I had a better point to make but this is all my cluttered mind can come up with right now.
 
I choose not to believe a lot of claims here myself. At least not the ridiculous ones like 12x8 etc.

People with verified pics, or at least non-model-looking pics I can accept. Although I know there are a lot of liars on the internet.

I don't lie [to] myself. I didn't used to think I was all that big but after some real life comparisons by ex's, I think I am. I'm not huge though, and never claim to be. Big is fine.

As for the liars, just ignore them. Or pity them...some people is real messed up.
 
I used to exaggerate and use the dimensions measured along the side of my erection. I was lying to myself, I eventually realised that most people measure on the top so to be able to compare how big I was with other men, it wasn't useful.

I sadly had to accept the 1.25" reduction of the more honest measuring method but I was still in the big catagory.

I've since made it grow longer than my exaggerated size.:biggrin1:

Well, in math and marketing, that formula works, but in the world of penises it doesn't. Average, in this instance, means the range in which the most adult men fall. Most men on the planet are hung between about 5.5 and 6.5 inches. Smaller numbers of men have penises larger and smaller than that median range, with the percentages getting smaller the closer to either extreme you get.

Your example of "average" could ideally mean that in a world where ALL men were either hung above 6.5" or below 5.5" with no middle ground, your "average" penis size would be 6" and technically wouldn't exist.

I don't mind so much when people lie about their age, because there often is a possibility that you can get away with it (I don't feel the need to lie about that either). But a ruler will dispel any lies about penis size, and, frankly, don't you look like a fool for exaggerating. A fool, or a sorry, pathetic person who has so little self esteem that you think adding a fictitious inch makes you (and I'm speaking of a hypothetical "you", not anyone in particular here) seem more manly. I've said it before... saying you have a bigger dick don't make it so. Period.

It would be nice if LPSG would somehow encourage members to take ruler shots of their hard cocks... some sort of incentive, like an icon to go with the member's profile might work. Or, to be included in an exclusive "Ruler Club" or somethihng along those lines. Cuz I gotta tell you, I've seen some of the pics of cocks that are touted as "over 8" but to my eye look more like 7" at best.

PS: Kyuhaku, you have a magnificent penis. I honestly believe you are true to every inch! Thanks for showing it to us!
 
Im going to post my expieriences so far with sex and how my size has come into play. Firstly, i wasnt born with the size i have now, but i was a little above average before i did ANY kind of PE. My length varied from 6.9-7.1 inches in length, and the girth was about 5.25-5.5 at the mid shaft. However on my stocky build (more than 30 inch theighs), my dick didnt look all that big. When i stood up however, it looked pretty good. The first time i had sex i dont think i was even 7 inches, i think i was about 6.5 or so. The sex went very well, and i more than satisfied the partner i was with, and i had sex with her MANY more times after that one time. We lost touch for a while, but when we finally got back in touch my dick had grown to a solid 7 inches, and she said my dick felt a good amount bigger than before, and some positions we did last time, didnt go down the way they used to because of me going in to deep and hurting her. She described the feeling of me slamming all the way in, as the feeling to us guys when we get kicked in the gonads.

Some girls get off on that feeling, some girls just dont like it. This was one of those girls that just didnt like the whole cervix smashing feeling. Other girls, since aquiring my new size of 7.75 non bone pressed by 5.5-5.75 at the mid shaft and 6.25 at the base, has gotten mixed reactions. Some girls have been all for it and loved it, and then there are some who just plain cannot handle it, and since being this size i have had more of who couldnt than the ones who can take it all the way with me going hard. The last girl i had sex with just flat out couldnt handle it and had to take control, and she was on top and had to go real slow and left about an inch or so of my dick out. She also has seen alot of dick before mine, and has been with many different races of men, and said my dick was one of the largest, if not the largest, next to this one black guy. So with that response, im sure alot of people around here exagerate, and espicially, over estimate other peoples cock sizes.

I have one erect pic in my gallery from when i was 7.5, and u can tell im legit. The head of my dick matches perfectly with the dvd case, and the case is exactly 7.5 long. Since then i have grown .25 in length, and im .25 away from my final goal of 8 inches now. My last measurement of 7.75, was also done standing, rather than sitting. All that aside, i dont think people truely realise how big a certain size is. In my opinion, 6.5 inches non bone pressed, along the top, is definitly above average and will satisfy most women. Anything over that is icing on the cake, or not depending on the women.
 
I don,t think that many people here are exaggerating, but a few most likely are. I consider myself large at 8.5" x 6.25" but not huge, I mesured straight along the top. My penis has a upward cuve and if I use a fabric ruler and following the curve from the top I am over 9" would that be exaggerating? If I use the same ruler on the under side of my penis I am almost 12"! I have a female friend, and had a boyfriend who had a penis over 12" x 7.5" and I believe her because she has seen my dick rock hard and says he was MUCH larger than me. So they do exist. However she also said intercourse was very difficult and painful, she ended the relationship because of it.
