How can you tell penis size?

Hi all,
New to the board and have a question for girls - how can you tell the size of your BF/DH penis whether it is 5 or 6 inches or whatever? I have seen just a few myself and I can't really tell exact measurements. I have been reading on some posts here where girls talk about those specific inches about their BF's penis. Do girls measure them or is it just their best estimates?

Thanks.

Thanks, Westie. You said it much more plainly & pointedly than anyone else. It's a MEN'S issue, as we have said all along.

"Small" guy SOL?
It could be, but if he is wealthy enough to provide for his SO, she most likely will learn to make do with less in order to have more of the creature comforts she desires.

I think we ALL have to forgive one another's shortcomings, don't we? No one is perfect after all. This would just be in the most literal sense. ;P

I measure my BF's penis when it was fully erected. It is 5 1/2" long. I don't understand why he claimed that was small. I have no problem with his size. I don't think bigger is better.

I've got no problem with some chick hanging around because the guy's rich and got a small dick, but nothings going to change the fact that if the guy is too small to perform adequately for most women, then he's too small to perform adequately for most women. There's no "maybe" about it.

I wouldn't want to be in that situation, but if I was there probably isn't anything that I could do other than to find a "small" woman or to compensate by getting rich. LOL!

Perhaps one having to face this problem makes them better suited to handling adversity than others. Who knows?
At the same time, I should think that there are infinite numbers of women who cherish security over minute encounters sexually with the biggest they can find.
I have always been a proponet of people determining the degree of sexual satisfaction that THEY require in their SO before making any permanent decision about compatibility.
As you mentioned, it is a definite plus for people to find someone who FITS their needs.

And perhaps they become depressed, repressed and worse at handling adversity. Maybe it makes them a better man, maybe it doesn't. I can't see why you're arguing the point? What you're debating isn't even what my original point was anyway. As you said, who knows? How the individual handles it in their lives outside the bedroom is entirely up to the individual. How they handle it isn't really the point of this discussion though, is it? I was talking about sexual satisfaction of their partners. Clearly some men with very small penises will NOT be able to sexually satisfy most women in whatever sexual activity that needs a larger penis for her satisfaction. Yeah, he might be good with his tongue, he might be rich, who knows? That wasn't my point. My point was simply that no matter what some people say about "it doesn't matter about size", there WILL be a point where a man's penis can be "too small" for most women.

Don't know how this turned into a pissing match between you and me, but it seems that we aren't really of opposing views on the subject.
That's true if, by small, you aren't refering to men of average size. (ie. 5" to 7").
Under that and I think a man as well as his intended need to be far more discriminating in regards to "fit".
Somehow, I get the feeling that I wouldn't be interested in the same ladies that you would find pleasing.
I pesonally have tried to engage petite women, myself.

But shortier, a petite woman just might surprise you! Just because a woman has a small frame does not insure that her vagina will be as well. Just as we know that because a man is small, he may not also have a small penis.

Look at Tommy Lee, for example. His enormous package is famous but his body is very slight in comparison.

I remember a friend in college who stood all of 5' tall and weighed 95lbs. soaking wet. You should have seen her BF! He was at least 6'4 and big. And she said he was huge everywhere. Not quite sure how she managed, but she did, quite happily.
