Penis size article on science site

Just happen to stumble across this, the comments are pretty funny.

I liked this article.One thing that I always wondered is when they measure erect in all these studies was it bone pressed or just at the base(nbp).I say this cause say I am 7.0ebp but my fat pad is close to 1” which makes me 6.0nbp which is higher in percentile to other men.Also,in these studies to many variables for measuring.

I also like the avatar.looks like my dick..

Happy or slightly bent? lol

I would like to think that anyone who calls themselves a scientist would measure penis lengths bone-pressed, as its the only way to get consistent measurements day to day on the same guy (measuring from the same start point at the base), and be able to compare them properly from person to person. Measuring NBP just gives too much scope for error, with variations in fat-pads, and even introducing estimations of where to actually lay the ruler and start the measurement from. I know BP isn’t always the length that can be seen, or even the length that can be used necessarily, but from a scientific measurement stand-point, its far easier to be consistent with BP than NBP. Therefore I’d be very worried about the future of human scientific progress if most of these dick-measuring scientists haven’t all agreed on a simple standardised measurement technique (BP) that is so obvious that even us bunch of dick-tuggers on TP can easily see! :P

Agree. Bone-pressed is the only way to get a consistent measure on the same person. Science 101: You need to find a base number to measure any differences in growth.

I am lucky to have very limited fat pad (slim guy here).. but I have seen guys with 1.5”+ fat pad. That makes a big difference!

no thoesex69 the girth.I wish I could be measured in one of these studies.One by the researcher and at the same time by three women looking visually then ask them later.oh yea and by a member of thunders.I bet there all different.Which one would be closest to my own?

I think it would be interesting to see a study into women’s perceptions of size. So have a load of guys (properly) measured and then bring in some women to say whether they think the guys are well hung, average, etc, and what size they think they are in inches, and then reveal to the women what size the guys actually are and how far above/below the average. It would show how incorrect the women’s judgements are, and could also determine how much body size, ball size, glans size and other factors play into misleading women on the size of the penis. :p

I can see it now, Ms. Smith could we bother you to have a seat and look at some penis’s We need to know if women can tell the differance between a big one or a little one. We have bets on this, so please be honest. We can’t agree ourselves what is average, but were think you will score even lower.

Sounds like a good idea.

What would be funny is the same experiment with the guy blind-folded and no touching allowed and get some of the hottest and ugliest girls riding the guy with varying vagina sizes (screaming and moaning allowed). I wonder how many guys would choose the fat, softy, zit-faced girl who moans and screams like a total freak because she rarely has the pleasure of fucking some guy.

What’s funny is some of you guys that commented didn’t even read the article. Now it becomes it’s own thread like so many before. I love this place.
