He is above average in length, what do you want a porn star? Most women would tell you if size matters, thickness is more important than length anyways.

How big it SHOULD be? If he's "your man", it's as big as it is!!!! And if he's only "pretty good" in bed......it has nothing to do with his size.

There's a lot more to how good a man is in bed....than the size of his penis! A good lover doesn't depend on his penis to make a woman happy.....long before he uses his penis, he needs to be using his mouth and hands during foreplay.....and if he knows what he's doing........you won't care WHAT size his penis is.

Most women don't have orgasms from intercourse....it's what goes before that makes most women happy and satisfied.

Welcome to the board spur2007.

Penises are a lot like ice cream cones! They come in all different sizes and flavors, but they're all good!

What size are you looking for? Really, I don't understand your question, as each one is unique. Also, a definition of "pretty good" could be great to some people or just okay to others. Perhaps if you were a little more specific, we could answer your question a bit better.

I don't really understand the question either.

If he's "pretty good in bed" then it sounds like you are enjoying sex with him so what does it matter how big he is? It seems to be working just fine as it is. If we told you it that at 7" he was below average in size would you be unsatisfied?

As it happens, 7" is above average. Average is about 6" depending on who you believe and who you ask. They do come bigger, and they definitely come smaller. The biggest difference you are likely to experience is in HOW he uses it. If he has good technique and understands your needs then that will make a more substantial contribution to your experience of sex than how big his penis is. Are you happy now? ;-)

Studies that rely on medical and scientific methods report average penis length is somewhere in the range of 5"-5.5" (studies that rely on self-reporting tend to report averages slightly higher than this), so at 7" your man is definitely "above average".

Why do you care?

i honestly think that a man's ability to pleasure a woman through intercouse outweighs the issue of size.. after all, when ur in the throughs of pleasure, are u REALLY going to be thinking about how big he is or are u going to be thinking 'oh man this guy is good i hope this feeling doesn't end'?

I would think that at 7" you would be very satisfied. ;)

Seven inches is a very good size, indeed. But your post suggests he doesn't quite know (or you don't) how to benefit from this.

Here is the issue with size, once and for all, from a male heterosexual POV.

Many years ago, in an article in GQ, a group of five women talked openly about their sex lives, and when the "Does size matter?" question came up, one of them gave the best and most astute answer I have ever read: "Size determines what kind of sex you'll have." Indeed, I have found this to be true.

My penis tops out at 4 1/2 inches long when erect. I am quite small. Missionary position sex is the only kind that is satisfactory. Doggy style can be done only if my partner is petite. All other positions won't work. Woman on top is especially difficult. What women don't realize is that many men lose a half inch to a full inch in length when on their back--gravity tends to make it difficult for the penis to engorge 100%. My penis is only 3 1/2 inches long when I am on my back. Slipping out, therefore, is common for me in woman-on-top positions. In fact, I once dated a girl who would get to gyrating quite a bit and I would regularly fall out. I can't say for sure that this problem was the exact cause for our relationship ending, but it certainly didn't help. And a woman can forget side-by-side or standing positions, positions where the women keeps her legs closed, or anything exotic with me. The penis won't reach the vagina at all!

So with your man's seven-incher, you have all sorts of variety that you need to take advantage of, if you haven't already.

IMHO, size matters if a woman wants a sex life full of variety...or at least wants something more than just plain missionary position sex. My guess is that those women who are less adventurous are the ones who say "size doesn't matter."

My penis is 5 inches long(below average) and 5.5 inches in cicumference(above average). Must be OK since DW cums at least once every time we have intercourse. She had larger penises before we married, but she says my penis is the best she ever had.
