Flaccid Length Measure

I was just wondering how everyone measured their flaccid length. Do you measure holding it 90 degrees from the body like you would for EL or while it’s just hanging there.

I think just cupping it and holding it at a 90 degree is accurate enough. Letting it hang for me, seems to be kinda cheating.

Anybody else have any thoughts on this?

I personally don’t think letting it hang is cheating. That’s how I measure it cause that’s what’s seen. Rarely would anyone hold out their flaccid straight for anyone to see so what’s the point.

iamthestig,

I measure mine as it hangs with the ruler along the top. I start were the shaft skin meets the groin/fat pad skin. It may not be as accurate as the Bone Pressed method, but flaccid lenght varies so much any way I am not real concerned with accuracy. As long as what ever you do is consistent, so you know if there is a difference over time.

I am glad to see you entered your PE stats into the data base. I wish more would do this.

Welcome to thundersplace and the world of PE.

Happy gains,

Hey since I did not want to start a new thread to this question, how may I place my current PE stats in the data base? Thanks in advance.

Left click on the Quick Links button at the top of the page and go to PE Statistics.

bm10462,

In upper right hand corner of the home page you will see a tab labeled “quick links.” Put your cursor over it and go down the list of options to “PE statistics.” Click on that. A new page will come up that gives you a list of options that you can update or enter new data.

Good luck and Happy gains,

Ok so yea I think letting it hang is the best way to do it because that’s how you see it. When I first measured I held it 90 degrees but now it doesn’t seem to be proper.

I’ve been a bit slow with my PEing but am trying to get more consistent with it.

Thanks!

I think it really doesn’t matter which method you use, (90 deg, hanging, etc) as long as you use the same technique every time. You’ll get more consistent results that way.

Well, your flaccid length always changes depending on temperature, mood, etc. So it’s not really worth measuring flaccid size.
