Poll: A question for the guys. ( sex related almost )

[Krantos]

Well, not since jr. So, no. Not recently.

 

[MorsePacific]

I've measured it extensively. I like to know what I'm packing, you dig?

 

[MeatMachine]

Once. Never even thought about it until I heard someone bring it up. Never thought about it since.

I guess I'm just secure.

 

[Mr.Numbers]

I did it when I found out that the diameter of a cd rom is exactly the same as the average length of ...IT...

Guess what I used to measure?

I did, years ago, out of curiosity. I can't remember how long it was (Twas fully erect) though I do remember wanting to look up what the supposedly average size was, but forgetting to. Now I'm curious again... 0_o

Now you know how!

 

[Serge A. Storms]

Throughout my years of schooling I learned about the urge to measure one's own penis, both to see how one compares to potential rivals of the present and how one stacks up to the previous lovers of one's bedmate. I learned that, as the urge itself comes naturally to us, whether through insecurity or simple curiosity we're driven to find out, even as we might acknowledge that size is neither any sort of real measure of a person's manhood nor even the deciding factor in whether that man can please a woman.

So obviously I measured my penis because fuck it.

 

[Revolution -X-]

I did when I was younger. Then, after watching Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, I started trimming my pubes to make it look bigger (which, surprisingly, actually works).

 

[DEATHD0DGER]

I've tried, but I couldn't get an accurate measurement (my penis curves, my means of measuring does not).

 

[iblis666]

Yep.

At the time, I was horribly, horribly insecure.

Now I'm still horribly, horribly insecure.

But to be fair i watch a lot of porn.

However, women can be quite proud when they bag a biggun. Lots of high fives and "you go girl!" Status symbols just like anything else.

Even if that's true (and I've never discussed our partners' penis sizes with any of my girlfriends, so I'm not sure how true that is), it's not like the Ferrari that people can actually see. If women want people to think their boyfriend has a big penis, they can just say he does. Nobody's going to check. So there is no real interest in actually being with a partner with a big penis for status if you can get the status either way.

 

[theriddlen]

I was thinking about it but then I didn't know if I had to take the curve in account or from which point I should measure it.

OK well maybe I saw it in a romantic comedy.

You mean to tell me thats not how women behave? Psh! Next you'll be telling me you don't have naked pillow fight slumberparties.

Thats true, its obvious where the end is, but where is the beginning? I vote scruff of the neck, then four loops around the nearest tree.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

Maybe... yes. Not sure what the point was though because I never really found out the average size and to scared/lazy to look for it.

 

[WolfThomas]

A few times out of curosity, my advice is measure yourself while standing up, when you sit down you lose some inch depending on the posture. First time I measured, it was what I felt was slightly under average, second more accurate time it was what I felt was slightly above average. Also measured girth with tape out out of curosity, no problem there.

Nope, but it's short. Feels bad, man.

Kudos for honesty, everyone myself included seemed to enter this thread with "Vague statement implying it's large".

 

[loc978]

Yes. I had a woman comment on its size when I was seventeen, and I measured it then and there with a tape measure to see if she was right. She was... and her succinct description was "average plus".

 

[Canid117]

Yes, I did.

And it didn't make me feel any better, because I didn't know if it was an 'acceptable' size.
I expect that many young fellers who hear the 'size matters' schtick have done it.
Its silly, but understandable.

I've heard that it's about 6 inches.
.
...
.....
I hope that makes you feel better.

According to manswers that is standard for the United States.

 

[Guffe]

Yes is the answer.
It was like 4 years ago when I was 16, I think that around 14-16 most boys do this.

 

[Bloodstain]

I have never measured it.

 

[Randomperson9999999]

32 and a half inches
