Does anyone else think 5.5 girth is pretty damn big

Yes, I went from five to five and a half inches girth, and it’s a BIG difference. When I do the two circles with a soft tape measure, it is obvious, and going from five and a half to six inches is really impressive. Not even sure going bigger than five and three quarter inches in girth is very wise. That is really pressing your luck. But I’ll probably have to reassess when I get to five and three quarters.

I don’t want to grow at all in girth since mine is 6 MSEG already. All the women that have seen me erect say my penis looks weird cause it was 6 BPEL before PE. They say it looked short n fat. I need length gains to make it look right.

It’s true that fatter makes it appear shorter. As my girth grew, I thought I was losing length, but it had been so hard for me to gain girth, and yet so easy for me to gain length, I didn’t care. But when I did break down and measure my length, I was pleasantly surprised to find I had not even lost a bit. It just looked as if it was becoming stubbier as was getting fatter. Comparing equal length penises with different girths on that site visualizer.net will show you just what I mean.

Absolutely not. I even desire* more girth.

*Notation- I am clearly insane.

That illusion of “not that big” follows every single member here. Even the semi regular poster with 7.3” girth. Note this.

This illusion prompted me to seriously consider surgery once I got my thinnest point to 6” girth. I swear I hate all my pics.

But it’s a stupid optical illusion that my brain is not designed to defeat.

I felt the same way for years. I made a commitment to believe the ruler.

I just used that visualizer site, pretty cool. I now want to downsize my length goal. Before seeing it I wanted 8 x 6 now I want 7.5 x 6. Looked properly proportion to me. Just have to keep my girth the same during my PE journey.

5.2” properly measured girth is quite large, I can relate to having disproportionately more length however. Some women will actually use the words “thick” at that size in my experience, and they have done studies with 3d models showing women prefer 5” for one night stands if that means anything.

Thunders is a great place to learn techniques but a terrible place to go if you suffer from size insecurity in my opinion. The people who are most helpful here and measure correctly are dedicated veterans who often times have achieved a large size through years of work. Newer ppl often don’t measure correctly and cavalierly report a girth 5.5-6” girth that is probably under 5.25” with a paper tape.

There are a number of threads where someone measured with a string only to find out they were actually smaller. This is not to alarm anyone, it’s simply to illustrate a reality that a legitimate 5.5” girth is pretty much enormous.

In fact as the creator of this post, I noted my girth at 5.5” with a piece of toilet paper and was unknowingly around 5.1” max girth at that time.

I always tought I was 5.2 when I remeasured I was 5.5 .
I remeasured cause standard condom wouldn’t find ,then I discovered I measured wrong.
Still looks normal to me 😂😂 it even looks thin sometimes

There is funny trick. Stay at 45 degree near mirror. If you look from top, then it’s small. If you look at mirror, it looks thick.
But I’m not sure about that rings/measure tape comparison. Because I have 3 paper rings with 5.5/6/6.5 inches. I made those to check girth expansion in pump and during other exercises. And I barely can fit one in another, because all 3 are very similar. If I hold one edge and stretch another, then difference is noticeable, but when it’s all around, it’s barely 1/8 inch difference from one side, and 1/8 inch from another. So it’s not so decent example. On the other hand, when I push my girth to 6.5, it looks much thicker.

I’m not near that, but I was lurking on this forum for a while and generally it usually has positive (and sometimes very positive) reaction during sex, but at the same time majority of women can’t bj such girth at all.
Statistically, 5.5 is 1/15 and 6 is 1/100. First one is rare, but more or less in normal range, while 6 is already abnormal.

I really like my girth , pussy feels tight and some girls still give me ass , not too much teeth scraping.

I always tought it was the girth everybody had , when naked my weiner looked the same as others

Yea that’s great size. You may have gained too, and may have measured right the first time. People probably don’t exaggerate girth so much as just measure it incorrectly or rather less stringently. Like iPhone cords, shoelaces, strings, stretchy toilet paper almost certainly inflate measurements and that’s just one of the ways ppl commit errors in earnest, however I believe I have had heard of people thinking they were smaller than they actually were as well on a few occasions, to be fair.

Nice to see this site. I didn’t know that my cock was fat until I found it. I am 68 years old and I am kind of short at 5.5 but my girth is 5.6 and it’s still get hard.

Me, from 5’7 to 6’2 nowadays. Visually, I don’t feel great differences. But when I take it in my hand, with closing eyes and my rocky EQ it’s noticeable.

My wife doesn’t expressed her opinion yet. But I think that she feels more the EQ than the +½”.

First time tight second time right. 6 has been my goal since the beginning, its more than enough for me. I’m 5 11 170lbs so any bigger would just look funny plus I already got over the small dick complex.
