Of course.
Maybe, maybe not. If the end of the ruler is in plain sight and there's no visible skin indentation then there's not much to argue about IMO.
I'm not sure about that, but you seem to know more about it than me. Setting the camera in front of the penis will give a higher reading but there will be tell-tales, like some of the bottom of the glans showing, or a screwed up penis/body/feet angle. I might be missing something though, feel welcome to enlighten me, by PM if you don't want to publicly share your secrets
No secrets, it's just involved enough that the typical faker won't invest the time or money to make it happen. If you know anything about view cameras that employ lenses that can be angled in relation to the film (or ccd) plane, this manipulation can be employed to both "fix" distortions and cause them. Basically the cam/lens is set up such that the angle used to gain length is compensated by making the object (penis) appear to be parallel to the camera. It can't compensate for excessive manipulation, but it still works. Obviously this can't be achieved with either a phone cam or a common dslr lens, but it's still possible. Since most of us can't figure out what motivates someone to fake photos in an anonymous forum, we can't completely discount it happening.
