We have to get the guys to answer the same ridiculous, too often asked, questions....

1. 4" deep

2. 5" deep

3. 6" deep

4. 7" deep

5. 8-9" deep

6. "Hellooooo, down there!"

7. "I need a 4 X 4 strapped to my ass to keep me from falling in!"

8. "I could care less as long as she loves me."

9. "I wish we could stop these innane polls!"

Wessells involved in his study the difference in fat pads of young and older men. Though he came up with a average of 1.18" fat pad, he says his patients in general were heavier than usual, so I think adding 1" for fat pads overall (except specifically the Wessells study) should keep thing easy and simple for us. Wessells young men showed a fat pad of about .69 for young men, so I'll go with this for young men. Adding 1/4" to stretched lengths to arrive at erect lengths should also help arrive at bpel measurements.

Condom companies are after the best fit for their condom and would measure only
up to the fat pad.

Study 1-Wessells-----------------------6.26" bpel (5.08 nbp + 1.18 = 6.26)

Study 2-Lifestyles Condoms-------------6.57" bpel (5.88 nbp + .69 = 6.57)

Study 3-Young Italian men--------------5.86" bpel (4.92 fnbp + .69 + .25 = 5.86)

Study 4-Israeli men---------------------5.35" bpel

Study 5-Condoms,----------------------6.39" bpel (young men nbp 5.70 + .69 = 6.396.11)

Study 6-European men------------------6.36 bpel (5.11 fnbp + 1 + .25 = 6.36)

Study 7-Korean men--------------------4.46 bpel (4.21 bpf +.25 = 4.46)

Averages in size order and rounded off:

6.5---Lifestyles
6.4---Condoms
6.4---European
6.3---Wessells
5.9---Italian
5.4---Israeli
4.5---Korean

Concerning how often women say they run into big ones, sizesurvey polled over 3000 guys and the results were that guys with above average penis size had over a 2 to 1 margin of sex partners. It's an overall figure, as of course there are some small and average size guys that have more sex partners than some big guys when considered individually. Many guys don't believe women are running into a big one as often as women say, but thses guys are not taking into consideration that big guys often get around more in general, and that big girth with just an average length can receive a 'big' label by some women. So it's not as simple a matter as looking at some penis size chart and then labeling women liars, but realising that: above average length - very long length -above average girth- thick girth- can all cause a big comment, and that these bigger guys are getting around at a 2-1 ratio must also be figured in.

Rainy, in polls where men measured themselves they alway meaure about a half in longer than where they are measured by someone like a nurse.. The lifestyles condom company did a study at cancun where nurses measured....

Lifestyles Condoms. "I think it left the smallest amount of error. In the Spring 2001 in Cancun, Mexico, Lifestyles gathered a total of 301 male volunteers over 18 years old. Each subject was measured by a researcher, which eliminated the cheating factor. The results of the Lifestyles survey found that average penis erect length is 5.87 inches and erect girth is 4.97 inches. Also, according to the survey, 54% of subjects measured between 5.5 inches and 6.3 inches in erect length with 53.3% measuring between 4.72 inches and 5.11 inches in girth. I liked everything in this study but the amount of subjects and the race and penis size inconsistencies."

If you go to the site the-penis with the normal ending, cant type it here(its not allowed) it will show results of a survey and the percentages..You will see that longs ones are rare by percentage.
here is a small survey about womens preferences....AskMen.com - Penis Size

Also, if a women dates taller guys that increases her chances that he is longer than average - 50% of guys 6'2" and taller are 7" bone pressed or longer. Also, Kinsey's study indicated that while black men are only some longer in average, they have a significant higher percentage of outliner long ones. So while the correlation between having a long penis and being tall is just a moderate one, and the correlation between being black and having a long one is just moderate, if those two correlations are combined such as by a woman who only dates tall black men then I think it stands to reason that the correlation becomes somewhat strong, in other words her chances of running into a long one go up significantly, though not a certainty by any means of course.

My last post reminds me another something many women are branded liars about, but the truth is there is some truth to it. Women say taller guys tend to have bigger dicks more often(with exceptions), but people branding them liars have nothing more to present than their opinion that there can't possibly be a difference. And women are branded liars and and viewed as making a myth live on when they say black men to be bigger more often (with exceptions). Best evidence indicates there is some truth to all this. Yes, it's not true all black men or tall men are hung, but it's also not true that there is no correlated difference overall.Sometimes "myths" are not totally right or wrong.

Thanks for all of that Been....

I think that this correlates to what I've been thinking:

It seems to imply that men with larger penises are probably more confident and are probably having more sex generally speaking. Why wouldn't that apply to surveys as well? Wouldn't the smaller guys volunteer less? Also, perhaps the larger men are very confident (and are too busy... ;-)) to volunteer? I'm not doubting the findings completely, but just that I would have to know more about the volunteers and how the information was gathered (most of those links were experiments done on small groups of of men and one was done on flacid men only).

Additionally, when "self-surveyed," men skewed the results (Kinsey's report); that may be a clue as to who would actually volunteer.

I think that condom fit is one the true issues where penis size matters. Custom size condoms can prevent condom failure rates. I just can't see too many men with very small penises running to volunteer....as for the larger men....well....that's got me stumped... tee hee

Do not take any of this serious, I'm just skeptical and thinking out loud. But the fact that larger men are probably more confident, and score more, explains a lot (including why the odds are increased that women may encounter them)! Thanks for the links and taking the time to do the research. ;-)

Again, Hump....how were these men solicited? And only 300 Men were surveyed -- not hardly that great a number. I'm still skeptical that not more men are larger and smaller....but for now....I'll lean towards believing it.... ;-)

If the stats are good enough for a company that relies on the info from the stats(condom maker) then I`ll go with it too. Even Kensey and a few other surveys who had thousands of responders (who measured themselves) there is only about a half inch difference.. Even my wife who had a "few" in college several years ago said ,other than the 9" guy and a couple smaller guys the others were all @ 5.5 to 6" in length.

"Even Kensey and a few other surveys who had thousands of responders (who measured themselves) there is only about a half inch difference."

How do we know what the starting number was to conclude that it was only half an inch difference? I just assumed that most men under the 6.2 - 6.4" range picked that number (to most likely be believed). Perhaps if they exaggerated too much and said they were 8 or 9" then they may have been called in or something.... ;-) But my guess was that the men who were 3, 4 and 5" were those who exaggerated -- not the men who were 5.8 - 6.0(although they may have as well)." It makes sense that all of the men who lied were under 6.2 - 6.4... tee hee

so if a women says she likes girth does that mean she is lacking in the tightness?

this is a reply to your question toward someone liking a tight vagina

What kinsey did was to mail a post card to the men(back then no one had any idea what the average size was)The men were to place the card next to the top side of their erect penis and mark the card with a pencil as to the length (pubic bone to tip)...His survey that was a self measurement poll averages about a half inch longer than most of the "controlled" polls that has a 3rd person measure.(thats what I meant) I`m sure most guys who cheated measured longer than they normally were.. Since no one knew what the ave was in those days, its hard to say at what length the cheating started.....lol Most all polls say the ave is anywhere between 5.5 and 6.5" I think that is pretty accurate. Some longer than that and some shorter, but most guys will be near that ave.
