As I recall I read an article from sexual behavior that penis size is in the family genes but not like one would think. I read that the gene for a large penis run from your mothers side of the family. So if you want to know more about yourself look toward the males on your moms side.

This is my family throgh and throgh, my dad and brother are average, (i havent seen them ercect) but my uncles and cosins on my mums side are well hung, my older cousin is very hung and fit as anything ( im tring to work out the social, legal and moral implications of thinking this but he really is).

OK I know this wont end teh discussion but I do have the best answer so far.

FIrst let me say I have seen my fater naked but I was like 3 or 4 and so everythign looked huge then. As for what he was really like I have no clue. Dont really care. My family was not uptight but we didnt parade aroudn the house naked. Comfort or not most people wear clothes :wow: .

Now as for the genetics, most if not all aspects of our physical appearances have a genetic factor. However, to say that there is a hung gene is a gross misjudgement of genetic information. There are probably tens or hundreds of genes which contribute to penis size. Genetics themselves can never fully explain what a person will be. They can give you a pretty good idea but not exact. This is becuase of mutation and mistakes. Mistakes are a lot more common that you think. Most mistakes are corrected by destroying the faulty protein or the entire cell. However, some mistakes are not so dire that cell function is drastically altered and so they are let pass. One of these mistakes could make a receptor to a growth hormone latch on to that hormone and not let go. Suddently that receptor is in the on position contantly and growth happens faster. The change in the receptor coudl make it less able to grab the hormone. In that case the growth of that area woudl be less. There are also the genes leading to proteins to manufacture the hormone. There are entire processes in the cell which have associated proteins and organic molecules...each one of those will have some gene which codes for that.

When the sperm and egg fuse, the genetic material isnt evenly dispersed. Some genes are traded...a chunk of the mothers chromosome will be inserted into the fathers and the respective section on the fathers chromosome is inserted into the mothers. Most cells will get one gene from both parents as they divide, but some cells will get both genes form one parent. There is also the possibility of sex-linked genes which are on the x-chromosome. This woudl be very intersting if one of the primary genes for penis size was on the x...becuase then mothers woudl pass it on to their sons who woudl express it, but then for males with the big dick...that gene he couldnt pass to his own sons but could to grandsons by his daughter. Even so, it is very unlikely that there is one gene somewhere which is primarily responsible for penis size.

Yeah, there are parts of our physical appearance which have no genetic factor. Scars, for example. LOL But you're right, it's more how much of a genetic factor there is rather than whether or not there is a genetic factor.

I recently saw my father naked because we were showering at the gym. as I stated earlier he's about 10" soft, but he corrected me, he's 10.5" according to him hahahaha, half an inch off. but anyways, we joked about each others size and both agreed it's definitely in the family. he claims all the men on his side and some on my mothers side have "horse syndrome" which obviously means the men in our families have very large penises. he jokingly claims our family has the best men because they're all hung like horses. i'm certainley glad it runs in my families, it's good to be hung like a horse lol.

I have two brothers and both are larger than my nine and a half... and one is two years younger and the other is three years younger and my dad was over 10 inches...
[post=290612]Quoted post[/post]​


Damn, that must be quite a sight to line all 3 brothers together. BTW, have you actually measured each other? I&#39;m curious as to how you know your dad is as large as you stated. :wow:

Dad was not at all hung up on the sex talk thing he had his talk with us and explained things and told us things and when it came to size questions he showed us it was normal for our family to be rather on the larger side and me and my brothers one day did mesure each other to find out who was the largest of the three of us&#33; Jose&#39;Latinoboy9

I saw my dad naked a few times while I was very young. If memory serves, he was hugely hung. Of course, my memory also has me thinking my dad was about 8&#39; tall when I was that age and he somehow shrunk to 6&#39;2" while I grew to 6&#39;2.5". Being less than three feet tall at the time had my sense of proportion a bit skewed I would think.

I would have to agree it&#39;s in the genes. But.. I&#39;m a grower and my dad is a hanger. I never understood that growing up, so I figured he trippled in size just like I did. Needless to say that gave me a complex. He looks as though he is smuggling a puppy in his briefs. But hey, big is better even if you have to grow into it...

ravenously: I recently found out that my father has an 11 inch penis. That is acctually a couople inches longer than me, but I&#39;m pretty thick and might be thicker.

It might "run" in some families, but I&#39;m the youngest bro in a family of tall guys who also happen to be somewhat hung. I&#39;d wonder if it&#39;s the "hung" gene (any scientists in the room feel free to correct that haha) or maybe when you&#39;re talking about guys that range from 6&#39;6" - 6&#39;11", EVERYTHING is on the big side...including appetites, just ask the grocery store we all shop at. I&#39;m the shorty at nearly 6&#39;5" (but growing still).

You guys that already posted, did being hung also go along with height?
[post=288589]Quoted post[/post]​

Being hung actually is pretty much genetic so yeah it would run in families..although that doesnt guarantee that if your father or brother are hung that you will be too..by a genetics standpoint we share 50% of the genes or our 1st degree relatives. 25 % for second and so on...but there may be other factors involved too or more than one gene. As for your family..damn you guys are tall..ever been checked out by a doc? might be something causing such tall heights although its not always a disease causing it..thats just gentics and normal in some families....from what ive seen most really tall guys are actually hung normal or smaller...like 6 or 7 inches...but you cant generalize everyone, like you whos hung like a horse ;) K

It seems that for some families the Hung gene comes from the mother&#39;s side, it&#39;s the opposite for me, most of it is all from my dads side. anyways, it seems that the uncle and cousins from both families are somewhat responsible for passing down the gene, don&#39;t know why but it just seems like that. both my uncles are very hung and so are my cousins.

you mean all the women on your mother&#39;s side of the family have small penises? :eyes:

uh, let&#39;s hope not.

seriously though: if there is a common genetic code for a larger penis, which we don&#39;t know and probably never will, it&#39;s almost certainly a combination of genetic traits from both parents. it wouldn&#39;t mean that the father or the mother&#39;s male relatives have big dicks themselves, although it WOULD mean that those people are more LIKELY to produce offspring with bigger ones.

hahahaha, sorry I should&#39;ve been more specific, I meant that it seems like if there is a Hung gene it seems to come from the mother&#39;s side for a lot of familys, but thats not really the case for me.

My brother&#39;s the same is me. I think my Dad&#39;s was completely average. One of my uncles though--freakishly huge.

My brother is huge. He was the captain of a major university diving team and a couple years older than me...sometimes I think it was his hot looks and big dick that made me attracted to guys, lol.

One weekend when he was still in school, he came home and was alone with me and a friend while mom was out shopping. My bro was taking a shower in his bathroom right off our family room, and my friend and I friend were hangin out watching tv. I heard the shower turn off, and he walked right out to see what we were watching. He was drying off and made no attempt to cover his dick. He picked up a pillow and threw it at me. My friend turned around and saw my brothers big dick and started throwing pillows back. My bro dropped his towel and strated throwing back at us...totally naked, dick flopping around...it was funny. For years afterwards, my brothers dick was the gold standard of size in my neighborhood. I was so proud&#33;

When he got out of school, he was a lifeguard at the local YMCA. One week I went down to spend some time with him, and we went to the pool to hang out. After we swam, we went back to the locker room to get showers. Man as he slid his speedos off my heart almost jumped out of my throat. I followed him into the showers fighting off a hard on. I think he could tell something was goin down because he invited me to hang out in the sauna with him. I will never forget watching him stretched back relaxing...perfect body and a good six inch soft dick and tight nuts.

(anyway...) Hes my brother, and I didnt do anything but look. My cousin on moms side is also hung, I made sure to check him out too. Ok so Im a freak, I admit it...heh.

I know it does down my dads side of the family of which my two brothers have gotten their genes but not on my mums side from where i got my share of the genes
