Bone Pressed?

Hey just a quick question guys! On all of the studies scientists and condom companies have done, they say the average size is around 5.5-6 inches (around).

Im just wondering if that is a bone press measurement, or if its not?

Thanks!

Well, bone pressed is th only accurate measurement from person to person. If you mesure from where the dick meets the body, then skinny guys would have a distinct advantage.

I imagine that that figure would be bone-pressed, as it is probably the result of a semi-scientific study.

I think that figure is NBP length. Luvdadus has said in several occasions (based on studies) that avg. NBP length is approx 6” (a little less IMO) and BP length 6.5” (correct).

Ok. thanks guys! I agree with you Johan…that the average would be around (or a little less then) 6 inches…but what Insane_Man said did have a point!

If studies were done with a NBP measurement, wouldnt that defeat the purpose of the study? Because they wouldnt be measuring the entire penis…IMO.

I think you’re nuts.

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself. Actually, you made an excellent observation and I agree with you.

>>If studies were done with a NBP measurement, wouldnt that defeat the purpose of the study?>>

Not quite. It depends on who is doing the study and why. Condom companies for instance have done them. They are only interested in how much rubber they need to put in a condom so they are primarily interested in nbp measurements. Medical researchers may have different needs and a desire to eliminate the variable of body fat in their considerations so they would tend to go to bpel or bpfsl measurements for thier purposes.

HEHE :D

Good point about the condom companies! Well taken!

With all this info, what the hell is the average then?

from looking at Kinsey and condom company results. I believe that nbp avg is 6.0 (5.75-6.25) and the bp avg is 6.5 (6.25-6.75).

sizesurvey.com has a large study that involved bone pressed measures and although it is a self reported study (subjects self measure and report) I think it is valid.

I am only 5.25 around. But diameter ain’t everything.

>>they say the average size is around 5.5-6 inches (around).>>

i dont think you mean to say that they say the avg girth is 5.5-6.
these are girths that require magnum and magnum xl size condoms to fit. I think that normal size condoms fit 5.25” girth and less, however many guys with 5.25 girth will find magnums a comfortable fit and regulars too tight and break on them.

Scooter,

maybe I misunderstood you but are you talking girth or length?

Because I was wondering how you measure girth bone-pressed?

I think he meant in the area of between 5.5 - 6” in length as being average, not that size in girth, “around”, as he orginally quoted.

yah i was meaning “around” as in around the length/avg. haha i was talking about length!

Luv, do you think that self measured reports are accurate tho? If someone came to me and said “how big are you? i want you to go over there and measure for me!”…im not sure about you but i might add a bit onto my actual haha.

Just my 2 cents…

Keep in mind that the majority of studies measure girth around the thickest part of the dick….

If you just say “the average girth for the thickest part of a penis is 5.5” this doesn’t mean much, as this point could be around the head and only last a short length, whereas the actual shaft is smaller (maybe by alot) or other variations.

so, by contrast, us PE’ers usually specify (mid shaft, base etc) which gives you a more accurate result…

I think the average SHAFT girth is probably around 5, but there may be anoter point that is more…

so there you go.
