Excellent article. stuzilla! Thanks for posting this.
A couple of things it reminded me of:
On media images, let’s talk male underwear ads. I have read that there are "fake bulges" on hand and in use in every photo shoot.
I remember walking by an underwear store window in a mall where it was clear the clerks had stuff the manikin’s crotches with the packing paper that came in the boxes! It was quite obvious that there was crumpled up paper in there. Which was hilarious.

On porn stars - In "quality produced porn" like Bang Brothers, Brazzers, etc lots of effort is put into making the guys look as big as possible. Of course they are big guys. But the directors use camera angles etc to make them look bigger than they may be in real life. I am not talking about "trick photography", just the most flattering and enhancing angles they can get.
You will also see what is called "lens distortion" in the closeups - Take Bang Bros for example: notice how huge the guys look when they do those extreme close-ups of the blowjobs. Now take a look at the women’s face, you are going to see that her face looks all distorted too - features stretched out in odd ways.

On our reaction to pornstars - an interesting blog post from Daniel Rose:
Does Size Matter?

Does size matter? Yes and no, but mostly no.
There’s myths out there that larger cocks provide better physical stimulation (”hit spots that a smaller dick can’t). This simply isn’t true.
Think about the vibrators and dildos that are sold for women to masturbate with. The vast majority of dildos that are sold are between five and six inches, with proportional girth — the size of an average penis. The twelve inch monster cocks are relegated to the joke section.
You can see then, that a bigger dick doesn’t provide any extra physical stimulation. Otherwise, women would choose larger sized sex toys.
<SNIP>
So then, why is penis size such a frequent insecurity among men? The reason is that it is a vicious cycle among guys who don’t get laid very much. Their only sexual outlet is internet porn, which almost always features guys with freakishly large cocks. Seeing that size is the measure of your worth in the porn world, they begin to think that size is the measure of your worth in the real world too. This causes them to become insecure about their "merely" average sized penis.
When they do have sex with a girl, their insecurities ruin their Immersion. That is, they start to think and worry in bed, instead of just enjoying the experience and being in the moment. This makes them perform poorly in bed.
But, they don’t recognize that the reason why they are performing poorly is because of their insecurities caused by this limiting belief. Instead, they take their sexual failure as evidence that their beliefs about penis size are true.
They then go back and masturbate to porn that stars guys with even bigger dicks, and the vicious cycle continues.
