Wats the avreged girth?

Sex Tips & Talk

I think the whole problem around size will always stem from from teenage years.

It's a bit like you would be quite curious whether you have a big one or a small one. But it's not like you could go comparing sizes with your mates.
And in immaturity, lads would always say something silly like "yeah well mine is 9 inches"

Not only that you would have watched a porno in your teens (talking 16-18yrs) and seen some fine stud of a specimen who is tirelessly banging away at 2 women giving them, the time of their lives with his shlong.
Does that also lay a seed in the head?

Then you also hear some women. And I have at times talk to other women about how they must have a man with a big one.

I think this in all always makes a man conscious about tthe size of his penis.

I have never measured mine and dont intend on doing so.

That was meant to say

"Then you also hear some women who talk with other women about how they must have a man with a big one"

Good points :) Mr Gooner

i think that a lot of pressure is placed on a man regarding size, its so much easier for a women,men have diff sizes and shape penises,us women have different size and shape vaginas, some are big, some are small, some are wide, some are narrow,so it always makes me chuckle, when a women uses the penis size card, to get back at an ex, but have they thought it might well be them aswell, cant just put the blame on a man,for not satisfying them, were all equal now :)

But really size is a number and i dont feel its of any importance to a relationship

There definitely is a lot of misleading information on guys in their early years. Porn is a huge one and you can definitely see how lads would think they are abnormal, either too small or don't last as long etc. Plus mates bragging to each other yes. I can see how it would be as worrying to a man as it would be to a woman watching the same porn and thinking "Shit, I don't look like her"

Yes there are woman who say they want a BIG one. My guess is it is the young female comparison of the young man who brags about it? I dunno but you can bet if that is how the woman starts her "desires list" shes pretty shallow. To me, those woman are the female equivilent of the males who say "I want big tits and a "tight" pussy"

Apparently those are the women the majority of men are inclined to listen to. A couple of men have even gone so far as to tell us that we're lying in threads like these.

Maybe it's some sort of evil conspiracy on the part of the women of LH to boost male confidence. Aren't we nefarious? :-)

My struggle is women says they dont "need" a big penis

They also say they dont need to orgasm every time.

But they would prefer to orgasm every time

So we infer they would prefer a larger......

I'm literally going off I suppose what I hear people say.
I work in an office which is predominantly women and often over hear few of them talking in conversations about size etc whilst talking about how great 50 shades of grey is. And this is coming from women in the 40s-50s.
Maybe it's just chatter amongst women like men who will often say stuff like Fluffbags mentioned.

As LilMissMardy mentioned sometimes an ex will say you have a small one as a means of getting back at you. Although it could be B.S. I Suppose again it knocks your confidence.

I think we just live in a world where bigger is better in every aspect lol

See that I can get my head around. I mean you could have a 10 inch shlong but have no idea how to use it. As they say it's all in the hips. You could have a 1 1/4 inch one but have the ability to perform great oral which could give a woman orgasm/s

Can't say I hang with groups of women, but I can imagine it being the same as a group of guys down the pub "Corrr did you see her tits" "I had a girl last week with the biggest tits" I dunno, it all seems bravado to me. Unless I have a strange vagina that really doesn't care.

Here is now I see it. Dunno about other women, but this is me:

My vagina has most of its sensitive nerve endings around the entrance, and then there is another spot, only a few inches inside, on the upper wall (g-spot) which also has lots of nerve endings. The rest of my vagina can only really "feel" stretching sensations as something passes in and out (Put your tongue into the side of your cheek and wiggle it) Aside from the areas I mentioned, the rest of my vagina feels LESS than what you feel right now tonguing your own cheek. It is well known that females most sensitive areas are outside or surrounding the vagina, not deep up inside there. In fact, deep up inside there is the vervix and that is not comfortable with being prodded!

But sex still feels amazing because a) No matter what size the penis (unless under an inch or two, I guess) all my "hot spots" in and around the vagina are being touched and brushed against and most importantly b) Which is feeling close with my partner, connected, whether animalistic or romantic or passionate. I am getting excited by the situation and him hitting my g-spot and feeling his hands and kisses and all the rest. I do not get anywhere near orgasmic if I just pick up a largish dildo, lube it up and lay there rhythmically moving it in and out. I actually get bored. Its the whole situation and sensation of your partner. If there is clit stim during the sex then I possibly will orgasm clitorally, if he gets me in the right position I may squirt, but trying to do that alone with a large dildo is boring and actually sore after a while.

Now, I am not ruling out big penises. In saying small ones are fine and big ones hurt. Not true always and big penises feel nice too. The differences though are all down to how much "stretch" you feel in the vagina and big penises may have some advantages (Like they apply more pressure to the g-spot in most positions, wheras smaller guys may only get that kind of pressure in certain positions only) but smaller penises have their advantages too, like being able to have longer sex sessions with that guy because my vagina doesnt feel battered and bruised or chafed after 5 minutes, or being able to take him all the way inside without him hurting my cervix, so the smaller guy can pound me whereas large guy needs to watch what he is doing. Pain is never a good step to an amazing session. I love that I can deep throat smaller guys too! This is a joy that I cannot experience with huge guys, i have a small mouth and jaw! lol

So, all guys, small large or whatever have a place and have advantages and disadvantages. I say advatnages and disadvantages for people who reduce the penis to the sole method of pleasure. (Most people don't look at a penis for its advantages and disadvantages lol) Maybe some women out there do prefer large penises in the same way a guy prefers blondes or large boobs or whatever. We all have our own tastes, however, just as any man would not rule out, or be disappointed in a brunette if he fell in love with a brunette after only dating blondes, women are honest to goodness not disappointed in your penis and the size of it only concerns us really at this point if it is too large that it hurts and we can't take it.

Woman have these fears too. Are our labia too big, too dark, is our clit too big, are we shaped wrong, etc so I do understand why guys would worry. Its the same deal really, the occasional aresehole man will mock a woman for how her vagina looks or exclaim that the "perfect" vagina looks bald/no inner labia showing/pink whatever...and its the same asshole women who reduce a man to being all about his penis size. Thats my opinion anyway.

I love penises :D

Okay I am going now lol

Id say 5/6 is the averaged girth.

32

Surely this is a totally academic question, the average must me based on your current lover's experience not a national or even international average?

As has already been said size is not important it is the man that it is attached too that counts and probably his brain.

I know that I am above avwrage howewver, because when my now wife first saw mine she said she had never seen one that big! So in my wife's eyes and experience I am above average, but who is to say that if I were to show someone else they might think it was small?

So does it really matter?

Looks back at previous page.... Don't see a single 'need' there. Did I overlook something? Maybe in another thread? Not much inclined to go searching through the pages of posts the women of LH have written on the subject, but if you can find one I'll give it a look.

What I 'need' is as little pain as possible. That means either an exceptionally skilled and patient lover, someone on the 'small' side, or preferably both.

Also, the smaller the penis the easier it is to fellate well. All of you smaller guys can just chuckle about that one to yourselves. I'm not worried about larger men feeling like they're missing out. It's not like any men here believe us after all.

34

Yeah not here, on other threads.

35

From experience, I feel that it's the guys who brag about being 'large' and are 'sex-gods' are in fact the total opposite. My BF is quite shy and was never one for bigging up his penis. (In fact he didn't need to, which I found out when we started going out 3 years ago!)

But I did measure him after reading this thread as I was curious....and it confirmed not only was he bigger that average but, when you're in a good relationship you can experiment and find out what works sexually. So you can work with what you have, big or small.
