It is however rare to hear an insider mention any specifics about size, but given that virtually any time size is given a number in a porn movie, it's an exaggeration
I think over here in the states we're much worse about porn inches and monster dicks in general. It might be easier for a Hungarian to say something like that.

In surveys most women report being fine with average. Many women here who have had various sizes and comment still say average is fine. There really shouldn’t be the kind of anguish I see here.

An issue seldom discussed is that penetrative sex might not be as satisfying for small guys as large. A "lack of power", popping out esp. when the partner flexes, feeling small in an expanded juicy space, not being able to "reach" doggies style, etc. might be factors. Maybe this causes small men not be as active as large as well as other factors.

Smaller men experiencing these things which are unpleasant TO THEM may project, rightly or wrongly, on the woman.

Many men enjoy playing basketball. Not every man under 5' - 10 can dunk the ball. Some can; and some cannot. You can still enjoy the passion of the game; and score many points. just don't dunk

Look up a guy named Spud Webb, if you want inspiration he is 5' - 7"

Yes, like height is a handicap in basketball, penis size may be a handicap in sex. Handicaps, if not too severe, can be overcome, at least by some outstanding people.

A guy I played against in high school, well under six feet, could dunk with both hands from a standing position.

However, I don't think this relates to my post that you answered.
 
You are missing the point and arguing for arguing's sake. I was trying to clear things up for you, but you clearly don't want things to be clear. You are full of shit and I bet you could spin yourself in circles with your own farts.

The point is that you don't know what the fuck you are trying to say. Small/Big is defined by where people PERCEIVE it. There is clearly a size that is perceived as small or big. No one is saying a 3" dick is big. I'm not sure why you are saying that a 3" dick is not big no matter how you look at it. That was from your absurd example that I said had no real world relevance.

I'm not saying that 50% of penises "automatically" are big/small regardless of their size. Not at all. I was trying to present an example where things make sense for you, to explain how one may align the words "average", "big", and "small" all together in one context. Go back and read it if you are confused.

Seems you are confused by stating that medium is defined by the average, but then stating that if the if the average were 3” it would not make it medium or large, it would still be small, you are agreeing with me.
 
81 votes for "perfect, just right", irrelevant, and other.

Only 65 think "somewhat smaller". Even on this site, that should tell folks something :p

Please let this also be the end conclusion of this thread!

I also voted “irrelevant” because it simply is. And as stated before, my perception of the average size (in other words I’m seeing a guy with 5.5 inch) is somewhat smaller then I expected to find before studies came out. Now I know better, I’m educated. But ask this on any other sex related forum and they would probably have different opinions then the guys and girls on lpsg. That is to be expected.

But in the end, the size really means nothing. It’s all about the person it’s attached to. Let’s adapt this whole discussion to hand size and see how ridiculous it gets. :)
 
The problem with the average study is nobody really ever truly believes it. Most straight guys only see cocks bigger than 7 inches. Most gay guys chase big cocks. And the average of 5.5 inches, in reality, does not exist (the jaggedness principle) plus the fact we're being less accustomed to being naked around each other and it's no wonder guys feel insecure about size.

I'm just under 6 inches erect. Perfectly normal. Do i like my length? not really. why? i'm small compared to the majority of cocks I've been exposed too.

I just read up on the jaggedness principle and I don't think it is used correctly above.

"Attractiveness" would consist of many different attributes: character, height, build, penis, presentation, etc. That would be jaggedness of the the concept of attractive. An individual could be above or below average on different scales. How do you combine jagged data? No clear way.

On the other hand, "length of penis" is 1 variable and definitely has a median (average) and a mode (most frequent). Both are from 5.1 to 5.5 according to studies. No jagged data there.

Of course, people are not necessarily exposed much to the average if the sexually active are in the large range.
 
just to add my two pennies worth:)

if by definition 'average' is 5-5.5 inches then it is not 'small' just average? if someone were 4 inches then that could be classed as small just as if someone were 7 inches it would be large - but these are just descriptor words and don't mean anything otherwise.

i'm dating a younger guy, his dick is spot on average and for me, given who it is attached to, what he looks like and acts like overall, it is just perfect.

If he was a complete dick in life generally, then i'd think his dick wasn't perfect for me.

so overall the size is more irrelevant for long term commitment partners in my view, and I can happily play with a 5-5.5 inch dick as an 8 incher.

I'm really grateful that I have at least 5.5 or close to 6 inch dick. Because like even what you say here...."can happily play with a 5-5.5 inch dick" says to anyone with a 4 or 4.5 inch dick that they would have a serious hurdle and actually reinforces their insecurities. I fear there are lots of guys with that size dick, too. I think it is really one of Mother Nature's most unfair tricks.

I certainly wasn't trying to make anyone insecure, hence my use of the word 'could' when describing a 4 inch cock and my comment about happily playing with a 5-5.5 inch dick was in reference to my own current partner being that size and that I didn't need a much bigger cock to play with for it to be fun.

sorry if I caused anyone offence.
 
I think it's hilarious to read the mental and linguistic gymnastics some here engage in to make whatever they think be true. Statistics don't lie: people do.
You have stated that average penis size is 4”-5”. You have stated most porn actors are average size. Therefore, we can conclude that most porn actors are 4”-5”. A=B=C. I know it is 6th/7th grade math logic. It can be challenging to understand. No judgment.

Yeah because you know and have a list of every porn actor in Canada, USA, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic, Guadaloupe, Trinkdad and Tobago, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Haiti. Should I go on with South America? Europpe, Africa, or do you understand what I am sayimg?
I never stated that average is "4"-5"". Ever. I have stated that the median/average is 5.2", with citations to back it. I have stated that most porn actors are within the range of average. Just because you seek out and fixate on big penises doesn't make them more numerous than they really are.

You constantly intermix terms as if they are interchangeable. Average, median, large, small, medium...these all have different meanings. You are obsessed with your penis and insist that it's small. It is statistically average, and you have a LOT of company, as most men are within one inch of your size. If you want to call that small, then call it small. It changes nothing. Your mental illness will never be cured or treated, your penis size will never change. By all means don't do anything to improve your outlook. Stay the miserable bastard you've always been. No judgment.

As always, I end by asking why you are here.

Yes. It is hilarious to see your mental gymnastics from your privileged stance.

First of all, statistics do not qualify, they merely quantify. Just because the majority of men may be small, does not make the size medium.

It has nothing to do on how big things are or how small things are or how long, or thick or dark or light or hot or warm or cold nor is it and indicator of any qualifier. It just indicates where things fall, not qualify them.

If in country Xoxo, the poverty level is at $1000 xoxorians a month. 85% of the population make $800 xoxorians a month or less. 10% of the population makes $1000 xoxorians a month, and 5% of the population make over $1000 xoxorians per month. The average citizen of Xoxo is not middle class even though the majority of its citizens will fall within the average monthly income range. They are poor, regardless of where they fall within the range. It just shows that the majority and average citizen lives under the poverty level and are poor, not that they are middle class or rich.

Likewise, the fact that majority of human males may fall within the average range of 4”-5”, does not mean they are not small. It just shows that the average or majority of males are small, as 5” is small. If the population would change due to war illness etc and all men 5.5” and above would disappear, does not mean a 5” is suddenly a huge monster cock. And if the opposite would happen and all men 5.5” and below would disappear, does not make a 7” cock tiny.

Likewise, if in a certain location in the universe the average/mean temperature is -85F it is cold. It does not mean the temperature is cool or warm just because it is average. Same if the average temperature is 237F, it is hot and not cool or warm because it is average.

Same principle with penis size as statistics do not qualify, they only quantify.

And your point is?

You're still too sceeeeered to have a relationship. You disqualify yourself, instead of trying. And you're still obstinately oblivious to how psychiatric counseling can help you understand that your perception of size is unimportant to whether you can have a relationship.

So stay alone, you're saving some poor woman from dealing with your psychosis.

THE POINT in this thread is if average size is small, which it is. Try to do what, set myself up for failure, rejection, always having to keep compensating, always being compared to other bigger guys they’ve had, always having to worry that she may leave because I an not her ideal and wants mote then I have to offer and then talk and disclose to others about me? A relationship based on what, if there is no physical desire? Psychiatric “help” is not going to change facts and reality.
