What position are you in when you measure your dick

I know this may seem weird, or maybe it doesnt but due to me not having a strong errection my penis measurement differs from sitting or standing compared to layin on my back. Sittin upright or standing I am a clear 6 inches but when I’m on my back I’m down to like 5-5.5 inches. Why is this? Perhaps it is due to me not havin a strong errection.

I don’t know why it is, but it is similar for me. I measure sitting on the edge of a chair.

skoiZ,

I also measure about a 1/2 inch less lying on my back. Maybe it’s due to the pelvic bone area being pushed further out. I’m just guessing. I take my regular measurements standing up.

Because bed surface isn’t hard enough to support your body straight. Lean against the wall and measure and then lie on the floor and measure, there shouldn’t be any difference.

sparky,

I’ll try that when I get home from the office.

One more thing to add, as peforeal said you maybe pushing your pubic area out, that can add some millimeters, however it’s ok in my opinion, you are measuring your effective length, because you do the same thing when you have sex.

How do you measure it when it’s flacid?, As the size varies, as far as I’m concerned, depending on the time of the day, or if it’s cold or warm?

Do you stretch it, and take the measurement?

Paul- A lot of people measure FSL (flaccid stretch length) This is probably the best way to see if you are making gains as flaccid size fluctuates soo much.

skoiZ-I think measuring standing up is probably the best way to see if you are making progress. Sitting or Lying down you could be in a slightly different position each time you measure where as standing up you will have a more consistent measuring environment.

As anyone else noticed that flaccid length fluctuates less since they’ve been doing PE?

Standing or lying down works the same for me. Sitting distorts the measurement.

Redwood,

If you mean stretched flaccid length, mine, in most directions, seems to be evening out (less fluctuation) and are all much closer to my BPEL, except for the twelve o’clock stretch, for whatever reason.

HH,

Actually I mean just your average flaccid length. I found mine used to change sizes like crazy, now the changes are a lot more subtle. Like +/- 1/4” difference unless it’s really cold or really warm or post PE.

Sitting makes it appear longer than it really is :x My measurements come to 9 inches when they are really at ABOUT 8.5 when standing. When I lay down, the measurement is about 8 still O.o Sometimes it can be really confusing. I take my standing measurement.

Measure to get the largest number, we aren’t in a contest and the measurement police won’t arrest you, I promise. If you can record a measurement in a position you can stick it in a vagina the same way. Jam the fuckin ruler in until it almost bleeds, as a wise man here says.

AH

I too experience this discrepency in measuring depending on whether I’m sitting or lying. I definately get more length sitting. BTW I was pushing the plastic ruler I have down onto my pubic bone so hard I broke the fucker!

I’ve noticed that too. When im sitting on my chair and spreading my legs a little I get the longest measurement. Lying on the bed it’s a little shorter maybe 1” or so.
