Does thumb = penis?

Was recently watching a show on HBO and the lady narrator said that "I've heard all about hands and feet relating to the penis but I've discovered that the thumb is the best judge. fat thumb = fat penis, skinny thumb = skinny penis, big tip = big head, etc.." Now this wasn't a documentary or anything like that, just a movie but it got me wondering. My thumb and penis seem to match pretty well. Does this hold true for others out there?

i never noticed the thumb correlation. but i wonder if it works for women, my lips are pretty meaty in both places. any of the other ladies notice the correlation?

no, none at all, I have large lips and my vaginal lips are quite small. I had sex with two women, and they both had thin and small lip; one had grainy large vaginal lips, and one had, very large loose vaginal lips.

my experience, from the tip of the thumb, follow it down to the bottom of the wrist and you have the length. calculate girth by proportion of that length to thickness of the finger, and it's pretty close. coloring is same as inside of hands. not that i care about size, i used to take notice because the rumour was the hands were the best indicator, but i narrowed it down to the thumb.

Well, I guess I've never paid any attention until you brought it up, but I can't remember the men I've been with in the past. But, I will say this..the hands/feet correlation has nothing to do with my boyfriend's size. He has small feet, small hands, and is totally huge! LOL! When I first got w/him, I never would've guessed what he had down there by looking at any of his other body parts!

One of my boyfriend's thumbs is longer than the other. Which one should I go by? :)

Maliceinwonderland, the smaller one. There is no correlation in my case, thank goodness.

That's pretty cool that you tried to find a formula for that. lol.

To be a little unfun about this though I have to point out that body parts are correlated with size with some variation. Penis size is of course subject to this as well. So larger men tend to have larger thumbs, tongues, noses, ears, feet, and penises. Also, since penis size doesn't very that much to begin with, one could come up with all sorts of formulas based on most bodily dimensions (not including things directly related to environment like waist size, bicep circumference, or hair length) that would be pretty close most of the time.

The general association based on height is the explanation for penis size differences between races. Since some races are shorter or taller then other races on average there are also measurable differences in average penis size. Of course there is so much overlap that it is not usefull to try to predict penis size based on race, but it is untrue that there is no association.

I'm really not much help here, lol, but just had to voice my thoughts. :)

I remember reading about theories of mens' penis sizes being matched statistically with their shoe sizes. NOT kidding! Lol.

Okay, I've GOT to tell you that the shoe size thing is NOT true! I was even directed, via email from one of our members here, to a sight that actually had the sizes and measurements to match! Can you believe it?! LOL! Anyway, very very not true, and am so curious as to how anyone had the time to even ponder it in the first place. ;D

So now we move up the block a little and find that the ol' thumb to penis or thumb/finger to other body parts is still alive and kicking, lol. If men or women out there really want to guess the size of people's private body parts by checking out their fingers or noses or feet or whatever, no harm done, just not very realistic for my own thinking.
