tape Measuring: The first 1/2 inch of the tape measure (the little metal part) is bent, so you are actually starting at the 1/2 mark. The tape measure is not pulled straight either even though your cock is straight. (It's not just following the natural curve.)
my girth: I never trust these measurements because it's too easy to have a little slack on the opposite side. Even if it's only 5.5, that's nothing to be ashamed of!
The first 1/2 inck....you must be joking....all the tape measure I own display the first 1/2 inch and not where it is bent....they all go from 0-1"...LOL! You must be joking?
What do you mean "the tape measure is not pulled straight"?
