why can't guys be happy with what they've got

[lafever]

What the heck is a Trabant? Is that worse than a Pinto or a Pacer?

It`s an east german car, it reminds me of the old pedal cars for kids(1950`s style). It has no horsepower what so ever, i think you have to push `em to get them going. lol

What's the use of having a Lamborghini when there are no roads that can handle that kind of speed? On top of that you don't know if it's going to work half the time.

No, I'm quite satisfied with my Honda Accord EX-L, thank you. It's responsive, reliable, and handles very well. It's great for those long rides and it will never let you down. I get compliments on it all the time. It just feels right.

How bad was it??? Just read:

The car is a freak. It started to roll off the production lines of East Germany in 1957 as the communists’ answer to the Volkswagen Beetle. That was the year that the Soviet Union launched a Sputnik into space and the two were billed as the onset of a modern, scientifically advanced socialism.

The reality was that the car had primitive brakes, no fuel pump and no oil filter. Instead of a fuel gauge it had a dip-stick. Wise drivers carried not only a spare wheel but also a spare engine.

Because there was a steel shortage, it was made from compressed cotton waste held together with a phenol-based resin. An original plan to build it out of compressed cardboard foundered after the test model was left out in the rain: it was the first soggy car in history.

But despite the flaws, waiting lists for the car ran up to 14 years. As a result it held its value for decades; the trick was to stockpile spare parts.- Project Earth News

I agree. I wonder this all the time. Too much obsession on size. But that goes without saying on a forum called Large Penis Support Group, I suppose.

Really, really don't care what your opinion is. All of my friends have been female- I have 1 male friend. You try to berate my posts any chance you get so, really, it's pointless to even say what I'm saying now.

Lamborghinis are wonderful fantasy cars. You can go faster than everyone else, people gasp in awe, man and women wonder who you are. Sure they're not practical for everyone but in fantasyland you'll be able to attract hot passengers simply for the car itself.

No, I'm quite satisfied with my Honda Accord EX-L, thank you. It's responsive, reliable, and handles very well. It's great for those long rides and it will never let you down. I get compliments on it all the time. It just feels right.

An Accord EX-L may as well be a Lamborghini to the Trabant and Pinto crowd. They're very practical, very comfortable, and do everything well a car should do; they even have some nice luxuries found in the more expensive cars. People see it an they nod in appreciation for the sensible choice then come to find it's actually very comfortable and does so many things very well. While you might not attract the shallow crowd the Lamborghini does, you can rest assured that no one will be offended either. You can own an EX-L and be very content that you'll fit right in any place you care to because you won't stand out or be laughed at like the Trabant owners.

There are plenty of roads that can handle very rapid acceleration, and in general that's more fun than just cruising along at 175 mph. Though both have something to offer.

Honda Civics will get you compliments and catcalls from young Asian or Hispanic girls, amazingly enough. I've found this while riding with my friend Ben. I blame The Fast and the Furious.

A thread full of truth...really shows the good and the bad side.

My penis is slightly larger than average. I went a very long time thinking it was "small" by anyone's standards and now though it still bothers me, I've moved on. I know where I stand. "Slightly larger than average", but in reality, this just translates to "average", "decent" or "normal".

I don't know why it took me so long but I realized my penis size is nothing special, and I mean that in the best way possible. No girl will look at my size and think "Wow, that's big!". No girl will see it and think "Ugh, that's small" either (well, except wildhoney maybe).

Then I realized the things I have to fall back on, even just sexually. Although my penis size is nothing outstanding, the shape is. Many people find it very aesthetically pleasing and healthy looking (not to be "cocky", but it's something I completely agree with anyway). I also have a really large tongue. I know what to do with my tongue. I have long, very dextrous (sp?) fingers (I'm involved in many activities that has caused me to develop extremely agile fingers). I've been told I'm very, very "smooth", "suave", etc. in bed. This is what I hear is "word on the street" amongst the girls I've laid and their friends. A lot, if not basically all of the girls I've had some form of sexual relationship has called back for more, whether she was an ex-girlfriend or a would-of-been one night stand. Basically, I've left a pretty good mark.

So, why did I become a slave into thinking I was a waste of flesh due to my percieved small dick? A bruised ego. I think any guy who isn't undeniably huge is vulnerable to that attack by a woman. I was careless with a girl and she said something that gave me the impression that she thought I had a small dick. Suddenly I wondered if it was true, I kept thinking until I eventually believed it, then everything went to shit. All good feedback I ever got was thrown out the window because I imagined girls saying things like "Yeah, he was great but he's kinda small", or something of the sort.

Nothing has ever fucked with my self-esteem as much as this has. I can't think of anyone I hate enough to ever wish it on them, honestly. I'm just glad I got educated and now know where I really stand. Still, isn't it a depressing thought that it's much easier to believe a really terrible thing rather than a good one? Oh well, lesson learned...I've come up much stronger.

No she's not. You just accussed any women who wear make up as being insecure or attention whores.

Which is really just bullshit.

 

[D_Lortius Waxwillow Piddlepoop]

so this is what it's come down to, we are comparing penises to cars????

 

[D_Geffarde Phartsmeller]

I'm gonna go with the "grass is always greener" philosophy. For those unaware, the grass is always greener on the other side. I think some guys are justifiably unhappy with what they're packing (4" hard zone). If that was me and I had the world telling me I was less of a man as a result, I'd be upset. But those cases aside, I think it's because people constantly want to better themselves. We always want more than what we've got. Maybe it's greed, maybe it's self-esteem, perhaps something else. Hell, sometimes I think about what it would be like to have another inch even though it's unnecessary. Self-improvement might be a good description for it.

 

[No_Strings]

Well Mr. Strings, let me tell ya.

I know I've given you some great ratings but let me say, and this is coming from a voracious top man, you have got the finest ass on LPSG. Now that's quite a thing in itself however you also have one of the top 5 cocks on LPSG. Let's add to this mix one of the most bewitching smiles, just a dash of great sense of humor, and a maturity beyond your years, and you have one hell of a great package.

I'm going to roll back the clock a bit and say that if I saw in the mirror at 19 what you have now, I think I'd have felt much different about myself. But I can't be sure. Like you, I had insecurities aplenty, many having to do with my appearance and penis size. If only I had this, if only I had that, so many things would be different. Or not. At face value it amazes me that you have any insecurities at all. On introspection, it just saddens me so much because it illustrates how infrequently we see the positive things in ourselves that others see.

The counterpoint is that when I was in school the one guy with the true 9 incher was perpetually greasy, acne ridden, withdrawn, and somewhat resembled Peter Lorre. He was a really nice guy once you got to know him though. In his case being huge didn't make a bit of difference. What was important to him were other things in his life that weren't going well at all. Though I know he took pride in outshowing the jocks and popular guys, he didn't have the self-confidence I thought someone that big would have. Pity it took me 23 years to learn that (but at least I didn't wait another 23 years) I'm not my dick though part of me is my dick and how exceptionally fortunate for you that you know this now.

Big guys telling little guys to be happy with what they have is like the Porsche owner telling the guy with the rusty Trabant how grateful he should be to have a car that runs. Who wants to ride with you in a Trabant? Who wants to even own a rusty Trabant? There's a point where yeah, it's a car, it does what it's supposed to, so you should be grateful, but it just doesn't have the same feeling. It doesn't say anything about who you are or want to be.

Wow, I'm blown away. Seriously.
I'm sure you're exaggerating just a little at the beginning there, but I see your point and I thank you for saying it. I had a long talk with my partner after I wrote that post, and we covered some ground in my past that I hadn't cared to discuss with anyone before. I do have majors issues of self-esteem, self-worth and self-image, and there are more than a few reasons as to the cause of each one, but talking really does put me clsoer to resolution, much to my own surprise.

Slowly, but surely, I am becoming more confident in myself, proud of myself, and appreciative/aware of what I have that (bizarre at may have seemed to me) some men would possibly be envious of. I am constantly evaluating myself though, as I'm wary of self-confidence overflowing into arrogance. LPSG has been such an eye-opener for me in many, many ways and I'm still adjusting to the fact that, wow, I'm not short, fat, ugly, hairy and small-dicked. :tongue:

I may not be there yet, but at least I understand that's where I've got to go. (How would I have captured the heart that belgons to the woman of my dreams, if I wasn't all those things?) :smile:


Now you boys carry on talking about cars; 'fraid I know too little on the subject to be of much use. :biggrin1:

 

[2322]

I stand by what I said. If I didn't believe it I'd keep my mouth shut as I try to be polite. Your no elephant but your cock is big and beautiful and your ass is the best here imho. Not all gay guys like the hairless boy look.

Same deal with your personality traits. Part of becoming a man is not only trying to correct our faults but honestly appreciating our assets while still maintaining humility. If you are balanced in other ways in your life then you'll be able to do it. From where I sit you're well on your way to achieving that.

I didn't have to say any of what I wrote. I have no designs upon you, don't want you for a boyfriend. Just one man giving an honest evaluation of another.

In other news, who was talking about cars?

I understand and I thank you for your words. I apologise for not accepting your evalution of me graciously. Receiving compliments is entirely new territory for me; I had only received two compliments in my life before I joined this site, and yes I remember them both. (Ironic, perhaps, that I once started a thread here entitled "How can you compliment someone, and have the believe it?") :redface:

I've had these issues and habits for 18 of the 19 years of my life and I'm doing my best to break out of them - you noticing and commenting on that means a lot to me, truly.

In other news, who was talking about cars?

Not me. :biggrin1:

 

[2322]

Me too. Had a horribly difficult time accepting compliments. I used to constantly deny and minimize them. Finally I got to the chapter in Emily Post, our classic book of etiquette over here, which said it was rude to do that and so I forced myself to simply say thank you. Just always say that, even if you don't believe it, and you'll find that the belief in the compliment will eventually follow. Compliments are great to receive, particularly when they're from someone you respect. Just ask yourself, if you respect the complimenter's opinions in other things, why not in the compliment of you as well? Some people are idle flatterers but you'll know them when you meet them. True compliments should mean something and as they're given as gifts, accepting them with true gratitude will repay the compliment giver amply.

My wife has had 2 10lb+ babies, with a third of unknown weight coming soon. It is no surprise that she is a bit stretched out from this; past the point of Kegels helping. I think she deserves the joy of feeling filled up during sex. This is the primary reason I Jelq. Will I ever be able to fill her again? I don't know but I'm going to keep trying!

 

[avg_joe]

Pure ego, and insecurity !!!

 

[invisibleman]

I am happy with my penis. I am very content. If anyone has a problem with it, they don't have to live with it. I do.
