Facts/myths about penis sizes

...And America and Russia are in the red? So that's what this is all about.

Finally, the true motivation behind the Cold War is revealed - Penis insecurity.

Well, they didn't call it "Cold" War for nothing. *nudge nudge wink wink*

So I've been wondering about this for ages, but never bothered to properly look into it. Is it some kind of scientific fact or urban legend that black men tend to have large penises (or, at least, larger than most non-blacks and/or whites), and that Asian men adapted or something to have small penises?

EDIT: Sorry, thought this was the off-topic section. Could a moderator move this there, please?

Pretty much all of this. I'm pretty sure women should be into you for more than THAT reason -_-'

I never said that. I don't care about my penis size. I've just heard it being passed around so many times that I just wanted to know whether or not it was true.

My understanding was that while too few studies on this matter have been held to eliminate doubt, no significant racial correlation has been found. It really is just a myth.

I'll be honest I also agree it's just a myth. [sub]I hope.[/sub]

I believe it's just a myth, a very popular myth.

ok...

How about people do research before they post? [http://bit.ly/HlS5Bo]

Here is the site:

Now you de-construct it and assess its credibility... what are the sources and the research papers backing it up.

I honestly don't care but... do some bloody research before writing something off...

I find it mildly creepy that a web application such as this exists...

In any case, I get the feeling it's a myth based on some fact, but certainly not to the extend that things like gossip mags and the porn industry would have you believe.

Maybe that's the real reason they all migrated from Europe... this revelation does tickle me quite a bit. As does the fact that the USA is sandwiched between Canada and Mexico, both of which have it beat.

On another note, damn, Venezuelan women are lucky

Crap. My country is gray. How will i ever know if to feel infirior of supirior to others!

There's a number representation.

Weeeell, this new brand of "patriotism" is scaring and confusing me. As such, I'm getting the hell out of this thread!

Maybe Venezuelan woman are big, too (if you know what I mean), so it all evens out.

This is totally anecdotal of course, but of the four penises I have had any contact with, two of them being half-African-half-white, one of them being half-Asian/Carribean-half-white and one of them just being white...
the white guy was terrifyingly big. It was like a truncheon made out of meat when not even erect. He dropped it on my thigh and it made a loud slapping noise. *shudder*

Curious as to whether any ladies are reading this, because I find that usually they give a better idea about what women actually want from a penis, what with being women themselves and all.

Plotting those guys on the size to how-nice-it-feels chart there's a definite inverse correlation (the smaller the better). I don't like them long or thick. Perhaps I'm just a delicate flower but if I can get myself off with one finger, what use do I have with the rest of that length and girth?

That guy with the terrifyingly big dick I mentioned? I had to tell him to get off of me halfway through. I couldn't pee without it stinging for the next three days he'd bruised me so badly. Had to break up with him the next time I saw him.

At least he got a bragging story out of it. "I got dumped cause my dick's too big" is something no guy's going to exactly be ashamed of saying.

OT: In my experience with more penises than I care to admit to, I've found that on average black guys do tend to, on average, be slightly larger. Not massively so, and of course there have been a lot of exceptions to it.

My mother's a nurse so she's seen a lot of penises in her day. I think that's why at least... But she says that black men have bigger flaccid penises. I've only seen one black penis irl (you know that one kid in gym...) and he did have a real knee-slapper. I didn't stick around long enough to see it get hard, but according to my mom, they don't get a whole lot bigger.

I on the other hand, practically have a vagina when I'm flaccid. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but it's about the size of my thumb at this very moment. I feel like it's vain to discuss your own erect penis size with people, but I am definitely a grower.

true that... in fact those bragging rights probably made him happier than actually dating her ...

Indeed, two weeks of dating a girl, a lifetime of bragging rights. This is why it makes more sense to have sex before marriage, too. Imagine waiting until you've been together for years and got a marriage license before realising you can't actually fit into your partner.

Couple this to the fact that many people are used to seeing men who apparently have a penis somewhere between bigger-than-average to large-enough-to-be-given-another-seat-on-a-plane thanks to pornography, a lot of men feel they are inadequate to a man with a larger penis even if they feel they do well in bed.

To be honest, porn penises are terrifying. I think guys need to understand that.

OP: I'm not going to lie and say size doesn't matter but unless you've got a two inch penis it's really what you do with it that counts.

Why do you think most female porn stars fake it? Having your vagina beaten up by a giant penis is not in any way fun.

I can imagine more awkward wedding night situations... but they all involve weird props or animals. But yeah, for this reason exactly waiting until marriage is kind of weird. Some people just aren't sexually compatible for various reasons, finding that out before you get manacled together is just the smart thing to do.

As comedian Hal Sparks said: "You don't save yourself for the one, you practise for the one!" Your first time at sex is always a fumbling, awkward mess so why would you want that to be the memory of your first time with your partner? Makes no sense to me. This is why I practised extensively so the first time with my boyfriend I could make steam shoot out of his ears and the top of his head blow off. Metaphorically, of course.

To be honest, porn penises are terrifying. I think guys need to understand that.

Truer words have never been spoken. You think the idea of getting a huge one in you will be awesome but when it happens? Just... no. Large? Yes, I'll take that (literally). Porn star huge? Get the fuck away with me, I want to be able to sit down tomorrow!

Whether because of actual physical preference or just thinking that it's somehow better thanks to the saturation of porn ideals into our lives, I can say that most girls I know laugh at men with a small penis, and talk about how sex with a man with a large penis is better. When I'm talking large, I'm saying hovering around the eight-inch mark. A friend of mine with a penis of exactly eight-inches has had multiple women say to him that size does matter, and his penis size made the difference. He even had one ex-girlfriend, after they broke up, complain how he had set an unreasonable standard in her mind and she no-longer liked 'average' sized penis because of it.

Whether, again, it's psychological or physical, from my own anecdotal experience women want a man with a big penis, even if just for the bragging rights.

I don't think I know anyone who'd seek out an eight inch penis. Sure, more girls are pleasantly surprised when a guy is well endowed but eight inches seems excessive. I mean that literally, the entire thing wouldn't even fit in your average vagina.
