A female reader, a shoulder to cry on United Kingdom +, writes (12 March 2007):

does that even matter? if your being judged on the size of your penis your spending time with the wrong people. if the size of your penis really makes you feel insure you should look at the variety of creams pills and machines that can help enlarge you naturally, failing that, look into surgery but be carefull. and is that really going to make you feel better?

A lot of the web sites on the net says that that normal length of a penis is 6 to 7 inches. I don't agree my penis is about 4.72 inches and most that I have see are about the same length. What's your comment on the subject

Lack of PCness is fine and is a 2 way street. Given the option, you like girth; perfectly understandable (friction!) and so honest vis a vis below. Given the option, I quite like a certain tightness in a woman who can give a good base-of-cock squeeze when I am inside her (friction!). But this is way down the list of desirable female physical attributes.

A thicker penis (larger circumference) can make some women feel fuller which can be a fantastic sensation. Sorry guys, I know this is not PC, but he wanted and honest opinion.

David Lewis agony auntYes, but many guys will say they are 8" plus.

If we did a survey based on answers on 16 - 17 year old, we would have a population of donkeys.

This appears to be the differences between the sexes, women tend to take inches off, whereas men add them on.

Wendyg agony auntWould just like to add... I watched a documentary the other day on porn... and the making of some of the films... It seems in the main they go for men with slighter larger cocks so they can get the camera angles... Ie they like to get side shots, so that the penis can be seen in the vagina, and all various angles, if they use a man with a slightly smaller cock then the cock will fall out and its not as easy to film... as some men at an angle will slip out, thats just how they do it in porn, to make the films easier to film... so to them the bigger the better plus thats what sells porn its all about image etc etc.. its not all about being real, its a snapshot of a men that happen to have larger cocks...

Woman do not lie and say yeah its fine if its not as what would be the point in that ? its definately not about cock size when two people care about each and are engaging in sex, it comes down to how you are with one another and what you do to turn each other on, its nothing to do with size, there is no such thing as an average either, its all about the person... i do wish men would get over this cock size thing, you were born with it, use it wisely and stop stressing about it, we woman really do not care, we are not as shallow as "some men" who think the bigger the breasts the better, and forget all about quality... I have dated a variety of men and not one of them had the same cock size, but i enjoyed a sex life with them all the same... (and now i wouldnt say i have been around the block, but ive had my fair share..) It didnt matter whether it was fatter thiner, longer, shorter, it was about the moement and the enjoyment that was at the time...

Get the point ???

A male reader, Yos Netherlands +, writes (1 September 2006):

Yos agony auntThe comment below sums up pretty much all the common misconceptions men have about penis size in one short post. Quite impressive sir!

"It just seems to me that if something is bigger and thicker then it must feel better?"

Why? That is the mentality that has people buying SUVs and extra-large of everything. Super-size-me shows us the problem with that way of thinking. If bigger and thicker is better then women would like to have sex with men with cocks the size of baseball bats. Or why not barrels? Or why not the washington monument? Bigger is better right?

"if size doesnt matter then why do porno mages and movies show men with big penises"

Because porn is made for men not women. And men like to imagine themselves in the movies, and like to imagine themselves with big cocks.

"I personally think that big or small penises for a woman depends on her exposure to them. if you have seen a hundred penises then you will have a broader idea of big or small"

Yes. The friend of mine who has seen around this many said that bigger is not better. As long as it is within a reasonable range then it's all about the owner. Too big and you don't want to go near it, too small and it doesn't really work. But too big has to be really pretty big, and too small has to be really small.

i always wonder if when women say "size doesn't matter" they are being truely honest? i guess all men think that. it just seems to me that if something is bigger and thicker then it must feel better? it makes more sense to me. if size doesnt matter then why do porno mages and movies show men with big penises? i personally think that big or small penises for a woman depends on her exposure to them. if you have seen a hundred penises then you will have a broader idea of big or small...

A male reader, Yos Netherlands +, writes (1 September 2006):

Yos agony auntWell there's lots of research done on this.

Most of the surveys are done by men measuring themselves. The average comes out around 6 inches.

However, the more reliable ones are done by researchers doing the measuring. Funnily enough, the average comes out at around 5 1/2 inches :)

You can explain that one of two ways:

- Men get more turned on when measuring themselves (unlikely...) or

- Men like to pretend their penises are longer than they actually are

I know which of those two I believe.

The most reliable stats I have seen also claimed that less that 1% of men have a penis longer than 8 inches. So the large number of teenage boys claiming to have 9 inch cocks are probably, I know its hard to believe, but just possibly, being economical with the truth.

The most reliable statistics I have heard have come from someone (a girl) who has seen a very large number of penises. Her hands-on research supported the 5 1/2 inch average.

Hey Anon,

It really doesn't matter what the average size is. As long as it's at least 3 inches, you're good to go -- that's because first three inches of a woman's vagina has the most nerve endings. :)

bonym agony auntHere is a definition of average:

"approximating the statistical norm or average or expected value"

Whats the average weight, whats the average height, whats the average shoe size, whats the average amount of time we spend talking, friend, can you see my point!!! There are no averages because what is the norm? Everyone is different, if I told you 7 inches would you flinch? Or what if I said 5 inches, what difference does it make, dont worry. xXx
