Hi i am about 18 years of age, and I have a question on measurement in penis sizes. When i put the ruler next to my penis it shows me that i am 8 inches. Now the problem is, when i was in MMA the men had to take showers when the session was over. I wasn't nervous to get naked but when my friends did, it seemed like their penis is more endowed then mine, and they were only around 7 inches. I heard that if you look at a mans penis, it looks bigger then it actually is because you're looking at it in a different viewpoint then you look at yours. I don't think im measuring wrong because i measured it infront of my girl

8 inches and 7 inches? Do you guys start measuring at your scrotum? I'm guessing you do...sorry but I've just heard guys make jokes about that before.

Listen, I doubt you and all those other guys are walking around with erect penises (at least I hope not). Angle doesn't matter. A guy can have a very small looking penis until he's erect. It doesn't matter if when he's soft it's 2 inches or 5 inches. The guy with the 2 inch penis when soft can have a bigger erection than the guy who's 5 inches when soft.

satindesire agony auntUnless all your guy friends had erections, you can't judge how big they actually were. Most of the time, a man's penis doesn't get to it's full length and girth until it's fully erect.

Anyway, it doesn't matter. You're probably getting your ideas about sex from porn, and I hate to break this to you son but...PORN IS NOTHING LIKE REAL SEX, okay? Women have this thing called a "clitoris" at the top of their vulva and it's analogous to the penis in terms of sexual sensitivity. Most women can ONLY reach orgasm through direct clitoral stimulation, so you could literally have NO PENIS AT ALL and still sexually satisfy a woman.

Trust me on this, you need to stop focusing on the size of your dick and brush up on your oral sex skills instead.

Tisha-1 agony auntDid you mean "sledge" and not "sludge"? "Sludge" is muddy industrial pollution.... Anyway, I digress.

What does it matter what the other guy's penis size is? Is your girlfriend out there measuring other penises to see how you stack up?

This really is a guy thing, I guess, measuring penises. If it makes you happy to think you have a huge penis, well, then, you have a way above average size penis. There's more to sex for the woman than the size of her partner's penis, just remember that while intercourse may feel very nice for most women, most do not get off on intercourse alone, they need clitoral stimulation.

So yes, your penis could look foreshortened to you and seem smaller. Take care.

If your over 6", put the ruler down and go find something more imporatant to do with your life... even if your 6", it really doesn't matter.

If you want to look longer shave all your pubes, the lack of hair adds the perception of length... and the guys in the showers should notice.

Ask oldersister agony auntReally, for a lot of females, anything over 6 inches can be a bit uncomfortable- you must watch a lot of porn or something. It's also not the length that's the most important, it's the girth so you are focusing entirely on the wrong thing. In fact, for many women, intercourse isn't that big of a deal because they can only get off with oral sex so they could give a shit about the length of your penis.

Ok, hehehehe. This is a funny question.

"it looks bigger then it actually is because you're looking at it in a different viewpoint then you look at yours"

What, are you looking at it in your side view mirror?

When you measured, I hope you did it with the ruler on top of your peenie, not from under.

FYI: 6" is average and widely acceptable.

Also, don't worry bout the size of your thingie. It's fine whatever the measurement is. I think it's normal for guys your age to think about such things.
