I was going to start a new thread asking this exact question. I’m glad I decided to use the search button. That would have been embarassing. So let me just copy and paste what I’ve already written.
I’ve been reading a few posts where guys mention how they came across Thunder’s Place and what their motivation was for looking in the first place. A lot of guys were motivated by their insecurities and were actively seeking a solution. I was wondering how most guys found TP or PE in general and what was your motivation.
I found PE and Thunder’s quite by accident. I wasn’t looking for a PE site and generally thought it was all a big load. I had heard of the pump from that Austin Powers movie and others and I did hear at some point that some guys hung weights from their dicks but never gave it any further thought and generally dismissed it. I wasn’t motivated by any serious insecurities about my size; in my mind I was a bit below average but still managed to please all of the women I was with.
Then a couple of years ago a buddy of mine tells me his girlfriend wants to be with two guys at the same time and would I be interested. So I went along with it and noticed that he was almost an inch longer than me but his dick was nowhere near as thick which was a consolation. At this point I had heard that 6 inches (NBP) was the average length and I was about a 1/4 inch short of that. I had no idea what the average girth was. Well seeing that my buddy was longer than me stung a bit, but I was more pissed off that his girlfriend wouldn’t let me fuck her or cum in her mouth. All in all a disappointing experience for me, but again I thought there was nothing I could do about my size and didn’t really dwell on it.
When I finally came across PE was when I was waiting for a TV show I like to hit the BitTorrent sites. I kept refreshing the recently listed files and decided to check out the most downloaded files just for fun while I waited. One of the files was a PDF of PE exercises and mentioned Tom Hubbard. So I googled the name and came across Thunder’s as one of the links.
Before I ever did a single exercise, I read a lot and was reassured that I was in fact right in the average range as far as length goes but I was floored to find out that at 5.5 inches EG I was above average in girth. I started some manual exercises for a few months and got .75” of newbie gains. I wouldn’t have thought the .75” would make a difference in my experiences with women but I actually went from having generally satisfied women to having women actually comment on my size in a positive way. I don’t know how much of that change was due to the gains and how much was due to the more veiny look and the harder erections that PE generally produces.
Anyway, to sum up, I stopped PE and lost about .25” and my erections don’t seem as hard and I don’t last half as long as I used to so I’m back at Thunder’s and will keep going and hopefully hit the 8x6 goal shared by so many of us.
