Is 6.5 BPEL really above average?

This is getting almost as bad as the “Does masturbation effect my gains” thing. Give it a rest and use whatever measuring technique you want to. The whole idea behind measuring is to track your gains, or lack of gains, not to impress people.

Whoa whoa, now wait, was the “Does masturbation affect my gains” thread really that messy? :leftie:

I am sure that at least one of the many masturbation threads is that messy.

I have to agree. But honest BP measurements are the best way to measure gains over time. With NBP you never know exactly where the ruler is and you can’t consistently put it there every time you measure.

seyz, exactly.
Especially since I can assure you that my fatpad ranges around 1” (normal day) to .3” (after dancing all night long + a little dehydrated).
It takes about one day to fill the fatpad up again, too.

IMO bone pressed measurements are the way to go to check your gains _and_ for comparison (if you feel like it).
Everything else doesn’t make no sense since the results are so varying.

And no, bonepressed doesn’t mean “belly pressed” :)

I was rounding off a bit. It’s a tad under 6.25”. But with out tooting my own horn, I’ve got pretty good abs :)

If you want to see what other guys/gals see, the get a tape mesure. Measure your dick NBP and then hold the tape measure at arms length about your belly button height.

That will give you a good idea of what others see. A tape measure is good here because it ‘hangs rather like your penis, with a slightly rounded bend at the top, which can even be adjusted by turning your hand to match the bend.

I’ve got a better idea. Drop your pants and look in the mirror!

I’m 7.75bp, and I feel small sometimes, and average most of the time, so it’s mostly in the mind.

The point I was making was that becaue you see it so often (and yes. I know about mirrors) but you see it so often in the same situation, like Krowax says it doesn’t register as big because you are used to seeing it.

Doing as I suggested you see it in a totally different light, and just as someone else would notice it.

Well, someone above was on about the difference of looking “from atop” (=your everyday view) and trying other angles.
IMO this is about the closest you can come to the truth here.

From atop, no matter what ENBPL I might have my dick _always_ looks kinda smallish (not small, but still).
In the mirror there is not much difference.. except when I get a slight angle to the mirror and push my dick down.
Funnily this is the moment where it looks like some “normal” porn dude’s dick, but not mine.

Noticed this facet? “Some porn dude’s dick, not mine” … *sigh*
It’s all in our mind, goddamnit… well that and in the director’s skills on making a movie from our dicks ;)

P.S: Oh and of course the view from all below with your dick going up to the belly makes it look longest, but this isn’t really a measure for size, just for aestethics if you wish :)

6.5 BP is certainly respectable, nothing to be ashamed of. You should be able to pleasure most women with that tool.

I’m a nads toenail shy of 7.5bpel, and to me it looks absolutely average no matter how I look at it (top, side, mirror etc). I look at records that I kept where is was definately smaller, but it looks exactly the same to me. I’m not saying it’s tiny, I certainly wouldn’t claim above average in public. I just think the ruler shrank or something.

While I’m logically aware of the inconsistancies in terms of change vs perception, what I see compared to what is measured just doesn’t seem to plug that gap. The message here is probably that most guys who want to PE should probably find something more productive to do with our lives. The eyes do lie though, that’s the only reasonable conclusion I can come to.

According to a thread on this site, ( and I’ll post the link if I can find it ) MRI scans of couples having sex have shown that up to 1/3 of penis length can come from internal penis, under the fat pad during sex. If this is true, then the women would feel more from the guy with 7BP and the thicker fat pad, assuming the guy was pushing hard and the circumferences of the guys was similar.

Here is the link I was referring to. Gottagrow - How can you get rid of some of the fat around your pubic region?
