I am about 3-4 flaccid and in my younger days as a teenager(I'm 23 now) I was conscious about my size thinking I was small. When Erect I am about 7.5-8 and have no complaints from the ladies so I guess I should be content with my size.

That's a respectable length flaccid or erect. You have nothing to be ashamed of. Both measurements are above average even if it does not seem so to you.

Well that's plaesing news. People I know seem to have much bigger flaccid dicks than I do, so that's the reason for my logic.

Point Of View. God's greatest joke is that the penis looks smallest when viewed from above. Best thing to do is look in a full-length mirror if you can find one.

I think you are right about the 2/3 being what is a avg flaccid/hard rule. But you can be fooled also. I have one friend that is 2.75 inches when soft and very slim. When he is hard he is 7x6.5 inches. Another friend of mine is 6 inches soft and 7.5 inches hard. I think it is safe to assume that some guys are well hung soft and some aren't. Just like erect sizes. I am 5.5 soft and 8 inches hard.


It seems to me that generally, a penis' flaccid size is about 2/3 of it's erect size, like a 9 inch cock is when 6 inches flaccid, a 13 inch cock is 9 inches flaccid, etc.quote]

My penis seems to have a mind of it's own. When completely flaccid, it can be as small as 2" (looks like an acorn!) but when erect it is 6" (not huge I know but big in comparison).

2/3rds as a general rule of thumb? Nope. It depends on the flaccid size.

LPSG can't really be used to judge what the standard ranges of growing and shower are. Here is some data from a site several months back (someone else also linked to it in this thread), I don't know if more has been added since then.

Also, at Thundersplace overall the 3" flaccids averaged out to 5.75" erect (grew 2.75") and the 5" flaccids averaged out to 7.25" erect (grew 2.25").

So the two sites datas match up fairly well.

Flaccid Length--------Averaged Erect Length----------------Amount of increase in inches
1.00-1.49---------------------4.71-------------------------------------+3.50
1.5-1.99----------------------4.89-------------------------------------+3.14
2.00-2.49---------------------4.88-------------------------------------+2.63
2.50-2.99---------------------4.92-------------------------------------+2.17
3.00-3.49---------------------6.07-------------------------------------+2.82
3.50-3.99---------------------6.08-------------------------------------+2.33
4.00-4.49---------------------6.69-------------------------------------+2.44
4.50-4.99---------------------7.00-------------------------------------+2.25
5.00-5.49---------------------7.35-------------------------------------+2.10
5.50-5.99---------------------7.80-------------------------------------+2.05
6.00-6.49---------------------na----------------------------------------na
6.50-6.99---------------------9.00-------------------------------------+2.25



The numbers are somewhat unstable, which more data in each range would likely smooth out. The average increase is 2.5 inches in the chart above. The data above clearly shows that the belief shorter flaccids/growers are just as big as longer flaccids/showers when erect is a myth even though smaller flaccids tend to grow more (giving the myth some validity).
