Is it the internet's fault that penis size is so misconstrued?

And porn is readily available to anyone at any age via the....

It's also been available in select cinemas since the 40's or there abouts. As soon as the human wang waggled it's way onto screens people started comparing. Heck, phallic symbolism has been big news for hundreds if not thousands of years, so I imagine it could have even started way back then.

Besides, the answer was technically correct.... depending on the local of the person who asked the question in the first place, that is. http://www.ebaumsworld.com/pictures/view/80595106/

1. I said READILY AVAILABLE to people of ALL AGES

2. Yeah the average penis is "6-7.5 inches"....just like the average height is 5'0" to 6'0"

3. I'd hesitate to trust an average penis size chart off of EBAUMS!!

Jeeso, calm down fella, no need for the shouting. There's a world of difference between inches and feet, and the chart originated from somewhere other than ebaums, the fact that I linked from there is neither here nor there.

Is the internet to blame for penis size being interpreted incorrectly? No, because length and girth varies all over the world. What may be average in Jamaica won't necessarily be average in Japan. Globally there is no standard size.

There for, nothing to worry about :)

It's more media in general (of which porn is a part) which should be "blamed" for penis oversizing (and undersizing).

I am quite sure that when porn first began (1920's? Film porn I mean), penis size was not a factor in choosing 'talent'. What happened was porn became stale and they wanted something to make porno "stand out" so to speak. So they chose guys with the biggest cocks they could find (which are not actually that big).

The biggest problem is that you have doctors, people on TV and the internet all saying that the AVERAGE penis size is "somewhere between 5 and 7 inches".

What they mean to say is most penises range from 5 to 7". An average should be a single number. In which case the average is more accurately 5.3" or so.

The reason they give you a range of numbers is to try and satisfy everyone. But there is a very big and noticeable difference between 5" and 7". Only about 1% of men have 7" or more. Also, nasty girls need 7" or more...

For example, two units is two units. If the average height is said to be 5-7ft then maybe everyone would be happy with their height. But that is in fact a lie. Since very few people 7ft tall just as very few people have 7" or longer penises.

What you need to remember also is that anyone can say anything on the internet. The person who answered that question probably has a penis smaller than 19cm/7.48in

So he is not an objective party and was most likely jealous of the person asking the question. I think his information was wrong too. Not just because it gives a range as an average instead of a single number but because he says the average is 5 to 7.5. I have never heard any doctor or person of authority say the top end was 7.5.

I think they are all told to say 5-7".

Even if the internet and/or porn has turn a good size cock into 'average', men have it easy.

I think young guys must be watching porn and ending up with even more unrealistic expectations for their young female partners. Most girls aren't going to be that into what they're seeing in porn.

the diff between b4 the 'net and after is that gals don't have to be sluts to see a few penises. in the 80's porn was on VHS tapes, in one nite my wife saw more penises than she had seen all her life. now it's on the internet. I fucked a few gals who got around if you know what I mean, and when they said I was big, I knew that comment was from experience. I had one gf who I was her second guy ever. she asked her mom would a guy be big if she could barely get her hand around it. her mom said, why, yes that's big. then she told her mom that was me, and mom got all interested cuz she had not been exposed.

I blame the increasing inability for people to separate fiction from reality. People watch television and movies or read books and look at models and think that what they are seeing is reality. People are dumb.

Wow just wow at the answer... someone's wayyyy off base! :rolleyes:

For reference:

The question was: "What [is] the size of 19 cm penis big or small?"

The answer was: "19cm is 7.4 inches. average is 6inch to 7.5inch, so its pretty average, maybe a little bit over"

LOL!!!

Misconstrued by whom? Maybe, just maybe, there isn't a generic consensus about a topic as wide and long as "penis size." Maybe, just maybe the width and breadth of this colossal, throbbing topic can't be contained to the opinion contained on one or two or three or three million websites. Maybe, just maybe, there's six billion plus thoughts about this sizeable topic.
