Average size of a man's penis..
49

I've been with only two guys and they both are about the same size. I've seen porn and, obviously, men like that are exaggerations of what the average male should be.

So what exactly is the average size of a man's penis? Also, what can he do (i.e. positions, toys) to make it more enjoyable if, say, he is not up to par?

>>btw I read about it in my schools newspaper awhile ago (it was a study) and from what men have said in other boards.<<

I think you might have answered my curiosity, lol, so be patient with me if I get it wrong. :)

I was wondering if you got your 99% number from authoritative sources such as medical studies or nationwide polls or something that actually said 99%, OR if they were calculations made based upon what you've read. I never knew nor ever heard that labia size was important to men, so your declaration really intrigued me and made me wonder just how naive I've been all this time. LOL!!!

Your were other message boards and a school study. Is that correct?

Thanks in advance. ;)

Para, I wasn't saying it was silly to have a preference, just that I believe it to be silly to put importance on it. I am not keen on uncirced penises, but if I loved the guy I wouldn't dump him over it. It's not *that* important to me. Make sense?

I figured that, so I was pointing out the difference in your wording, not necessarily your meaning, LOL! I have two jobs in which I hire and fire people, so my blood is infected with this itchy disease till probably a few weeks after retirement.

RAOFL!!! ;D

I think we need to clarify something before this goes any further. Which labia are we talking about? A woman has two sets of structures called labia: the labia majora and labia minora. We should be specific so that when a woman reads this thread she will know whether to be freaked out or not. I mean, if a woman with big outer lips and one with big inner lips reads this, they might both become insecure because "99% of men" preffer small lips. But if someone would clarify that it is, say, small inner lips that are preffered, well then at least the woman with large outer lips won't have to be upset. Of course as we know, somebody has to be hurt. Men with small penises already suffer, so it wouldn't really be fair if some women weren't hurt as well.

It sounds like people are referring to the inner lips.

>>Men with small penises already suffer, so it wouldn't really be fair if some women weren't hurt as well.<<

I really hope you aren't serious.

Actually, I believe brought that part of the topic up, LOL, so I suppose that would be up to you, wouldn't it? As I clearly stated before though, I wasn't aware AT ALL that ANY men even HAD a preference regarding labia size, LOL! Maybe I spend too much time watching sports and news and not enough time reading what the guys say after all, LOL, I just don't know. I just wondered where you got that idea from and it sounds like you answered it. :)

>>Men with small penises already suffer, so it wouldn't really be fair if some women weren't hurt as well.<<

Here's a friendly tip, phat, LOL, work on clarifying that right now before somebody gets the wrong idea. Even I myself am not completely certain what you mean by that. If you mean that it would only make sense to you that both genders would feel insecure about their sizes, then I understand where you're coming from. It'd be wise to clarify it though so no one accidentally gets the wrong impression, right?

Whoa!! I surrender! I was just trying a bit of sarcasm. I guess I over subtled myself :/ No I was not serious. I think that some men feel that way though, and I was trying to provide a bit of commentary on how the topic was brought up (not mentioning any names).

Speaking of bringing up topics: <> No, I didn't. I wrote a response to the topic that was brought up by someone else (again, not mentioning any names).

So thanks for the friendly tip, and I hope that this clarifies things. I'll go back to my isolated home deep in the forest where I don't get out much to practice conversing with other human beings.

- Phat


P.S. - In my experience, "friendly advice" is never friendly, and neither is a "tip". I hope that a "friendly tip" cancels itself out to create a literally friendly meaning.

I never have been insecure about the size of my penis. Then one day I asked my wife (s.o. then) what was the longest she ever had. To my amazement she told me her bf her freshman year in college was nine inches. I was temporarily paralized. I remembered she told her best friend(who told me) I was a perfect fit. I asked her if she liked it, and she told me she never had an orgasm with him, and that he was so long that he constantly hit her cervix, which was painful. He was "too long for her." Then she said that in her opinion girth was more important than length anyway. She said he was very thin, while I was the thickest shes had. I never even gave thickness a thought before.I just had to know where I stood, so I measured. According to the "ave" charts on penis.com my 6.0" around is in the top 5%. So much impotance is put on length, that girth is overlooked by most.There was a poll taken on one of these threads and aked women what was more important to them..length or girth...Around 88% of the women said girth. I agree that the penis doesnt make the man, Its the man who makes the penis.(quote from my wife)
