Many threads here were about the "hung Italians" myth.

I don't think it is true: i am Italian living in Italy, and i am pretty hung (not huge for a lpsg member though :smile: ). I compared with just two friends and i can say that one was average, the other had my lenght but was way thinner.

The question is: what is the origin of this myth? Maybe mediterranean men are thought as more passional and keen on sex?
Methinks Italian machismo is the origin of the myth.

Italians do not have larger than average European penises. Their pre Christian culture worshipped big cocks. It is just that Italians like talking about their dicks and admire them. Who else would adore pricks like Burlosconi and Mussolini - the later still has cult following there.

I don't think anybody asked you to judge Italians.

First of all, the cult of fertility with big penis symbols is common in many pre christian cultures, including Egyptians and Greeks (Priapus): in no way it is a distinctive Italian feature.

Regarding Fascism, our history is full of mistakes, as any other nation's. Anyway Mussolini has not that big following in modern Italy, as neo fascist parties don't even have seats in Parliament. For your information their names are Forza Nuova (New Force), and, under certain aspects Alternativa Sociale (Social Alternative).

Even during Fascism, however, not all Italians accepted to kneel down to the dictatorship, and many of us died to bring democracy back to our country. Learn about Mr Matteotti, Mr Gramsci, and Resistenza, the popular uprising agaisnt fascists and nazi invaders.

The party that somebody says to be neo fascist (Alleanza Nazionale, the National Alliance) has the vote to immigrants in its agenda. Not only: his leader Mr Fini has been welcomed in Israel and has visited Yad Vashem Memorial (if you ever know what it is) where he said that Fascism has been an "absolute devil".

Regarding Berlusconi (and not Burlosconi), he might be a disastrous statesman but, still, Italians have voted him in free and open elections (maybe they won't in april). So you have absolutely no right to moralize him, not being an Italian elector.

I think this is all, next time think before posting. I would never judge Mr Bush nor his operate: you can think about this.

Eventually, i agree there are many things mre important than penis size: one of theese is respect.


Lucky Luke can be right, instead.

The only real difference between mainland Southern Italians (Neapolitans for example) and Sicilians is that the latter are on an Island. Remember most Northern Italians (anyone living south of Rome) consider all Southern Italians "negri" or "blacks". Like it or not, they see themselves that differently.

In truth with the boot of Italy protruding so obviously into the Mediterranean it's logical and historically accurate to assume the Siciliani (Sicilians) and the Napolitani (Neapolitans) are descended from the same people. Both areas were immensely involved in ancient trade with North Africa, the East, the Phoenicians, etc. and in fact the Vikings made their way down (though infrequently) through the Straights of Gibraltar and account for the few red-headed Southern Italians/ Sicilians today.

When someone says "I'm NOT Italian, I'm SICILIAN" today they're simply distinguishing themselves from the mainland Italian. Hereditarilly there's no substantive difference in the genetic mix.

The Sicilians from an Italian standpoint (again I'm only recounting my experience) are considered the poor cousins to mainland Italians and of course the legends surrounding that island and its inclination to corruption are lore.

I have to laugh at this so hard. I remember some of my very old Venetian relatives talking about this very topic. They would say things like only people from Venezia are "real" Italians and people from southern Italy and Sicily weren't Italian at all.

When I was just in Padova a few weeks ago, I was speaking with someone about a town in Sicily and the culture down there. He said, "well, you know, it's really not Italy and the people there aren't really Italians..." It made me think about one of my grandfather's aunts and what she used to say--it was almost word for word the same!

While the Venetians may want to consider the other parts of Italy a different country (it really is a whole different world), being a trading port I'm sure that there was plenty of blood lines mixing from around the Mediterranean and who knows where. (they just won't admit to it LOL)

I'm Irish (and actually born and living there, not like you "my great grand pappy once met an irishman, so I'm irish too" americans), and believe me, the Irish curse is a myth, invented by Americans so that they could say something bad about the otherwise perfect Irish.

Obviously, since it's not true, that means we are, in fact, perfect.

Is it just me or is almost every race well hung it would seem, you could talk to any guy of any race and he'll say something about their background and them being hung. just the other night my friends dad was saying "you know what they say baout dutch guys" and I said no "well were well hung". he later then wanted to compare cocks with me, it was rather akward. that man is always sauced when I see him. I think the media has alot to do with people having mis conceptions about race going along with penis size. I think asians and blacks have been played on by the media the most to go with penis size. I think it doesn't really matter what race you are there's going to be well hung guys and there will be some not so well hung guys.

Well, I don't know that I can shed any additional light here. A portion of my heritage is italian, so if that contributed to my being hung, then great! I'm happy to have the endowment, regardless of the source. Most of the full blooded italian men i've been with have been probably around 7. In fact the smallest dick on a man i was ever with was a full blooded italian american guy. I have known a few hung guys of partial italian heritage. In fact I have a close friend who is half italian and half polish and sports a thick 9.5 cock. I suppose I would agree with an earlier post that observed that there are hung guys and not so hung guys in most races and ethnicities.

i think i may be able to shed a little light on this subject.

part of the reason for the "myth" of italian men being well endowed is the fact that italy was one of the first places that latex condoms were commonly used. because of this, manufacturers sized them accordingly. the average condom is approx. 7" long when unrolled. this was so they could comfortably fit the penis of the "average italian".

when the product was introduced to the rest of the world, by some person's standard or another's, the condom, unrolled, seemed rather long. hence, the "myth".

someone else pointed out that men living in warmer climates could possibly be larger because of the warmer temperatures. the penis and scrotum hanging farther from the body would aid in reproduction. statistically, equatorial countries seems to produce larger men. however, when these men move to colder climates, there is no longer a need for the penis to remain elongated. in a lot of cases, italian-american men settled in colder climates (new york, chicago), whereas, african men were sold into slavery in traditionally warmer climates (the south). this could explain why it is rumored that african-american men are more well-endowed than italian-american men.

Yes, you are right. Our soldiers were given latex condoms during colonial wars in Libia (1912).

True enough my friend. Last time I was in Venice (Oct. '05) I heard a Venetian aristocrat who has a rather meagre palazzo at Campo Santa Margherita saying "Oh Richard! We're innundated with ALBANIANS now! It's dreadful. Notice that the backs of their heads are so flat. It's sure to be the downfall of the Venetian bloodline"! :eek:

When I was just in Padova a few weeks ago,
I envy you that my friend. Padua is always a wonderful day trip from Venice and I sorely miss "la gente italiana" just now.

While the Venetians may want to consider the other parts of Italy a different country (it really is a whole different world), being a trading port I'm sure that there was plenty of blood lines mixing from around the Mediterranean and who knows where. (they just won't admit to it LOL)
With place names like "Fontego dei Turchi" you can be sure of it!! I will say that, by in large, the Venetians are a pretty damned good looking lot however.

Didn't know you travelled in Italy prepstud. :smile:

Sure is a myth. I've had my share of Irishman and with very few exceptions you dudes are packing.:cool:

A wise moderator here once said, "If you have a penis, you're hung."

. . . . and they don't even have to hang to be hung? i've seen guys in the showers whose cocks barely pass the pubes, no hanging, therefore not hung!

I think Italian men have a lot to be proud about including their sexuality.

Italian culture creates passionate good looking & confident men.

I dont know if Italian men are generally bigger, I am italian and i am pretty big at 9.5" I have met a few really hung italians (even some bigger than me) and some avg/small ones.

I think Italian men are hot, they got great looking cocks, judging by this site, many are pround of their cocks.

Uncut cocks (of which the Italians and many European countries tend to have) always give the appearence of fuller girth due the increase in size with folds of skin...the suprise as always is on erection....:wink:
