Do women remember the size of their former lover's penis?

I have been bombarded with penis enlargement emails lately. Something like 100+ a day. Hopefully I am not the only one. :) Obviously these are SPAM I know, however there are lots of products claiming to work for those less endowed. One of the common emails subject titles is something like...Your girlfriend remembers her past lovers size, how do you compare? Make her forget all about them with MegaDik. Whatever!! So it makes me think, do women remember the penis size of their past lovers? If I was asked about the size some of my ex's breasts were, or how tight they were, I would not be able to recall any of this. Is it different for a woman? For those older ladies, how about 15+ years ago, could you remember for a fact that one guy was bigger than the other thinking back on it today? I was just wondering if the hype and marketing ploys these herbal product manufacturers are using is really true sometimes or has any validity.

Wow thanks for the responses. I did not ask this question due to an insecurity, maybe it sounded that way. I am very fortunate down there. However even being the case no guy wants to hear or think that someone was bigger or better. This is the male ego at work. In a previous post I mentioned that one of my wifes past lovers is now involved in my life. Our kids play football together and I see him almost daily. Sure when I see the guy things don't feel quite right, and I have looked him over wondering what he offered her back them (granted he was 17 at the time, so probably not much). Mostly these SPAM enlargement emails just got me thinking that after being together for 18 years could a woman remember details of being with someone that far back? She was 19 when we met, and all of her past partners (5 total) were a teenage hook-up after a party, or some guy that said the LOVE YOU word to get sex, then dumped her the next day. This part hurts me more than thinking what they did to her sexually. In every case alcohol was involved usually to the point of being very drunk she said. It was brought up that a guy should/could remember a past lovers breasts, etc. I think we are talking about apples and oranges here. A girls breasts have nothing to do with the feelings associated with sex. In other words breast size is not a make or break issue for great sex. If a girl is going to remember a past partner, it would be based around the actual intercourse experience or feeling, not a visual thing. For example, did it hurt like heck, or on the other side, could she not feel it at all. In these cases yes a woman would remember that "JOHN" was larger than her previous or future lovers, or smaller than she was used to. I agree with the anonymous comment, I doubt seriously that any married woman sits around and thinks about someones elses penis after being apart from them for 18 years and in love with someone else all these years. But then again I am not a woman so I can not say for sure. If you are lets say 20, and have been sexually active for lets say 5 years, sure I can see a young girl like this remembering details. Back when I was young I feel that being endowed actually made me a worse lover in most cases. I knew I was large and I new it was going to hurt most young girls. If they did not act like it hurt during sex then I did it harder. It was almost like I got off on making it hurt. After being married and in love all these years, my goal is to instead be careful, take it slow and make her feel like each time is better than the time before. Even if I had a small penis, having this attitude as a guy makes alot of difference.

My wife remembers the size of her past partners that were unusually large or small. That is from 30 years ago. One was between 7 and 8 inches and fairly thick. She remembers that it hurt some of the time and he never could get it in the whole way. Another was short, at about 4-1/2 inches, she thinks. He used a lot of positions and it took a long time for him to have an orgasm. The rest were average (probably 5 to 6 inches) and she remembers little about their size. She much better remembers what they were like as lovers. Most just screwed her, only a few made love to her.

I don't know how long mine was when I met her, but we couldn't do doggy and I couldn't push it in hard, as it hurt her. I thought I was just a bad lover, as others had done that. I never measured mine until I was in my 50s and it was 6-1/4 or a little longer. I could still hurt her. Now I am older and typically 5-3/4 or 6 inches and she loves it. We can do doggy fine and she likes me to occasionally be rough with her. I can still hurt her just the tiniest bit (hurts so good feeling). She wishes mine were a bit thicker, but the length is now perfect. She also thinks that I am the best lover that she ever had and I believe her since I don't think that she has ever lied to me.

I am giving so much detail to help to show that even though she might remember some guys that were bigger than you that she might not have liked the big ones. Here is a discussion of females that shows that many do not like big penises and have trouble enjoying them. Most of them agree with my wife's feelings, that your tenderness and love making skills are far more important than your size.

Here is the web site with the discussion of what women think of size. It seems like honest opinions. I hope I am permitted to post this site, because I think that the opinions are very helpful.

She might remember but that doesnt mean she's sitting around thinking "oh, bobs penis was much bigger than my husbands, I miss it" blah blah blah.. if she didn't like your penis and the things you do with it, she wouldn't have married you (or stuck around for 18 years)...

If someone asks Im sure she can say whether so and sos penis is bigger than someone elses but it's not something most people I know ever dwell on in their free time.

You remember the way other women looked I am sure, but do you hold it against your wife?

I remember the size, but more importantly I remember what they did to me. I've had men with average and smaller than average penises who were fantastic lovers while I've had a couple of lovers with huge penises who thought they were God's gift to women and were totally lazy in their habits. Give me a guy with a smaller penis who is totally passionate and totally engaged and I'll take him over any guy who is well hung but superficial every time.

Yes, of course we do. That's like asking men if they remember physical attributes of thier past girls, like the size of their breasts. I can pretty much remember all of my past lovers sizes, and I had 21. But if they aren't big, but good in bed that's more important.

Interesting. I only ask the 15+ years thing as my wife and I have been together for 18 years total. Was wondering if after that long things become a blur... :)

I remember the ones who were significantly sized yes. But if the penis was a nice size not necessarrily huge but we had great sex, that stands out in our minds too.
