You may have a point but for what interests me I think a binary choice might be appropriate. Perhaps I could have phrased it as "particularly turned on". Indifferent is not turned on. A 4 is not "particularly turned on", you would be a "not turned on". Anyone else with this thought, if you're not a 6 or a 7 you're probably "not turned on".

Indifferent as in one way or the other, I don't mind... So I would "moderately agree" with your points of interest... a 4. If you don't like the likert method, you can always use a semantic differential. :tongue:


The problem I have with the way this is structured is that it seems more like it's what "you want to hear" (I don't mean that in a highly negative way) rather than how we feel. So narrowing the answers down so radically just pushes words into the mouths of participants, and how will that give you valid information?

For all the deepspot, backstop grinding lovers out there I ask this: Wouldn't a large mushroom head feel better functionally and thus look better aesthetically? Does one necessarily precede the other? Can something actually be a "meh" visually and at the same time mind blowing internally?

(Disclaimer: I've always wanted to have a wide-cap mushroom head for that reason, sadly my head is so-so... see my pic)

Mixed emotions on this one.

First of all, I think I would need a radical size difference to really be able to differentiate the two, but even so, an unappealing dick, though it might feel good, still looks unappealing. I am sure there is some moderating effect of sensation quality on looks, but I doubt it's enough to totally mitigate aesthetics.

Plus! What about the dicks that stay really thick to the very tip, with a small and blunt glans? They seem to work just as well as mushroom tips. :biggrin1:

Decided to check in on the voting on this thread. Too few women responding to draw conclusions but the conclusions from the men are pretty obvious. Men like seeing big heads and lots of semen. 2 theories I'd propose are:

1. these are both signals of virility - ie people are attracted to traits that show greater likelihood of impregnation
2. these are both signals of arousal - ie people are attracted to signals that someone is extremely aroused

Of course, given the nature of this forum, the sample is highly biased so extrapolating to the rest of the world is probably unwise, though potentially fun.

There have been many many threads around mushroom heads on LPSG. This survey doesn't seem to have defined what it means by "mushroom" head...usually distinguished from "helmet" head. Mushroom, like the fungus, has a full convex, outward curve from rim to tip, helmet, like the fireman's hat, has a concave, inward curve from rim to tip. Mine is a classic mushroom.....

....but as you seem to be concerned with size of head (and volume of cum) maybe it's not really mushrooms you're after, just large cock heads of either style.

And yes, although my cock ain't so big, the mushroom head does get compliments, and my gf takes time to slip up and down very slowly over it...which feels great for me too.

Love large mushroom heads and lots of cum but am SICKENED by thick, indisputably white semen... Elmer's Glue semen. If it's not runny and somewhat translucent, I can't look at it without feeling a little "upchucky". Some say that thick white cum is a sign of virility - meh. To me, the guy is just eating too much of something he shouldn't be. I've cum thick and white on rare occasions - usually backed off on a supplement or something I was eating to stop it.
Back onto mushroom heads. To me, it makes any cock look bigger than it actually is - I've considered a previous BF with a 6.5" huge because his shroom was massive (and his shaft was reasonably thick too :p).
