Lpsg Perpetuates Average Isn't Good Enough

[Khegan]

I remember that there was at one time a member on the site who was actually a statistician, degree and everything, but I can't remember who it was. Maybe if someone knows one, they can convince them to come into the thread and rip these studies apart and school everyone on proper terminology and interpretation of results.

Of course even if they do that, the individuals purporting their dubious at best interpretations will just find some other minutiae to fixate upon.

Yes, of course. I've never said otherwise.

My point has been that men are size conscious and were so before porn was easily available. This size consciousness has been an important factor in the male hierarchy, the phallocracy.

Yet not one record of the phallocracies throughout history ever mentioned dick size. It's been the best kept secret ever. Except from you, of course.

Greeks and Romans

Greeks and Romans

They discussed dick size as a factor in determining which males ruled? Do tell.

Those societies ascribed higher value on small, not large penises, as symbols of status and beauty.

I welcome your evidence of any record showing that penis size, specifically larger penises, played a role in determining political or social status in Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.

We all know it was the cliterati that killed Caesar

Et tu, clitoris?

We all know the Romans cut their hair short and wete defeated by Saxons and the Celts, who had long hair. And of course in the East Alexander the Great had the greatest hair ever. Hence the name. Evidence galore!

First of all, who cares!

Second of all, it’s not the site that perpetuates, it’s the users

 

[Tattooed Goddess]

As SMA (aka Sir Mix A Lot) once said...

I like big clits and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny...

That's all the evidence one needs..statically speaking.

 

[Llbaker]

Uhhhh no... you’ve also been harping on about how women don’t want a man with a small peen. Geez you can’t even keep up with your own bullshit.

Really? Feel free to find where I have said that.

Giving users a forum helps perpetuate, though I agree it is a minor factor.

If this (the ability to find and satisfy a partner) isn't the crux of your argument, then why would you argue ad nauseum that the "actually small" have a "handicap"? Does the penis have yet another function beyond passing urine and sperm?

What, exactly, is the handicap you've claimed?

BTW, it's patently disingenuous to repeatedly delete your account and then return with a different name. Someone like @rtg who is new to your bullshit won't be able to search your post history to find the past ramblings stating what I've said above.

I'd say this site does anything but perpetuate a negative view of one's own body. I see plenty of men/women get positive feedback on their pictures no matter what size, shape, gender or colour they are.

The stigma against small penises has existed for centuries now. This forum doesn't really perpetuate that idea in any way I've seen.

I suppose I need to find those exact words or else it’s equivocation.... he’s accused women countless times in this thread alone of preferring large dongs and apparently we are anti-small dongs because we don’t idolise them. Despite the fact that no woman has said they idolise big peens in this thread either.

As if I can be fucked even going back to this thread to pull up exact quotes, because I know if I did, he would still claim equivocation or misinterpretation.

Being perceived as lower status in the male hierarchy (phallocracy) is a handicap among men but also with regard to women because of psychological damage inflicted by men impairing self-confidence, assertiveness, etc. Only a very few women internalize the male obsession with size in my experience.

Yes, it is possible for strong men to avoid or overcome such damage in my opinion.

I think you are confusing me with someone else in the thread.

Having studied statistics off and on for 30 years, I'm 95% confident that I'll never understand statistics as well as I should.
Having said that, I'm also 95% confident that 1) a confidence interval is a measure of how accurate our measuring tool is rather than being a measure of the data, per se, and 2) I read somewhere that the inventor of the confidence interval regretted it because it was a) usually misunderstood and b) not worth the trouble it causes.

Yes, there is no end to how elaborate statistics can get.

However, "confidence" doesn't apply to the interval as you stated. You can have a 95% confidence the actual % of the population lies within the interval selected. The larger the interval selected, the smaller the sample size required for the same confidence level.

My point was that you don't need a huge sample to show that quite a large % of men think they are too small with a good confidence level. Using a +/- .5% interval would be good if it were very important that the % be almost exactly 50% for the hypothesis to be valid.

Not the case for the hypothesis under consideration.

 

[Llbaker]

A 95% confidence level does not mean that 5% of the time the data is inaccurate. You know nothing about statistics so stop talking about it. You should read some of the sources that I gave you earlier that explain confidence and selecting sample sizes.

A 95% confiendence level means that 5% of the time you are WRONG in confirming or denying the hypothesis about the population from the characteristics of the sample. Data, if collected properly, is never inaccurate. Yes, of course, larger sample sizes increase confidence, but aren't all that necessary if you have a large interval under consideration.

 

[Llbaker]

A larger study? Why larger, if the sample size is already several times greater than the minimum of 30 needed for accuracy?

The 30 size sample is not adequate for all situations. Adequate only when a large interval is acceptable as in this case.

It would be interesting to know the % before and after the advent of porn. Smaller intervals would probably be needed for that study and, thus, larger sample sizes.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who has done that. In any case, my comment still stands.
