Dissapointed Measurement Girth

Pre-pe I measured girth with an Ikea measuring tape. I measured 4.8 girth.
To make a more ‘precise’ measurement, I thought I’d use a wire of some sort, put it around and then measure the distance on a ruler.

I used the Ikea tape again today and to my surprise I measured 5.2/5.3 instead of the 5.4/5.5 I measure with a wire/ruler.

So I thought I’ve gained 0.6 girth in 6 months bit its actually 0.4 which is not bad. But I dont understand how this works.

How do you guys measure girth?

With a seamstress tape.

When it comes to measurements the most important thing is consistency. Just keep using the same method so you are consistently getting the same results that aren’t impacted by differences in thickness of wires, ropes, or tapes.

From now on I’ll keep using what I have been using. Untill I get my hands on a seamstress tape. Its more practical than my wire/ruler method.

Well you can’t accurately measure your girth without using a tailor’s tape. I prefer to use the masculine equivalent. Generally I don’t measure girth, as I am big enough already, 6” MEG, I don’t think being 7” would make more impact sexually, which is more important, just visually which I don’t need.

If what’s concerning you is the discrepancy between the two measurements, have you compared the measuring tape to the ruler to see if they line up? Cheap rulers are not always super-accurate.
