Penis Size: The True Average

That would be quite rare. A penis would have to be over 8 inches non bone pressed to stick out of two closed hands (at least - using my hands). In fact I don’t know if I recall a penis quite that large.

It’s not quite that complicated. I was always very aware of penis size, because it’s something I’ve always been very insecure about and every time I was near another penis I wanted to compare, and also because generally speaking, if my penis was bigger I’d want to be the one receiving oral sex and if my penis was smaller I’d want to be the one giving oral sex.

I think a hand and what extends beyond it is a consistent way to compare.

From what I remember reading about other guys who have experienced a lot of cocks, they seem to mostly confirm that the average length is around 5.5 inches or so.

That is also my recollection, but couldn’t find the exact post(s). I did confirm this directly with Firegoat and Westla was another I remember who confirmed this.

I’d agree that 5.5 is *around* “average” if we are talking about non bone pressed..

You don’t have to agree. You have your opinion based on your experiences. Others have opinions based on their experiences. Inasmuch as your experience doesn’t align with medical studies just means you have a different data set.

Other than my own? I have only had one, my current S.O. I have only had two other partners with penises before me and I could not do that with either. The first dude was smaller both in girth and length as well as the second. Idk. Two of My coworkers (female) have S.O.s that can be two handed but they also said that is not the norm for them. I think between 4 coworkers they have seen maybe five like that their entire active life.

What do you guys think of the water volume test? The more that I think about it, I think that’s the best way to really measure true size from a total perspective. It takes length and girth into account and you can use something other than a tape measure.

I think it would be difficult to do with any accuracy.

What do you think is the benefit of the results? There are no other data points to compare to. Maybe compare water volume test to the length-diameter cylinder volume to see how close they are?

Doesn’t that size calculator site calculate volume for you based on length and girth? May not account for girth variances (base, mid, top) exactly, but it does allow a volume calculation, and a percentile out of 1000 men.

Yes it does. But I can hear the guys now, my penis isn’t perfectly round so I should get credit for more volume. The percentages just numbers, not rank.
FWIW I still think that most women stumble across a 7” penis at least once in life. I just don’t think that they are that rare (hence my original goal of 7.0001).

if we are talking bone pressed, then anyone who has seen a half dozen penises on fully grown fully healthy adult men, has most likely seen one.

I think many/most “here” have always assumed they may be average, or worse. Which takes me back to the Ritz Cracker test…take a full sized sleeve from the box, measure it length and girth and compare to yourself…the girth is around 6 and the length is around 7…and if anyone holds that in their hands and thinks it’s small in either length or girth…well, to me it seems pretty stout. And I would suspect most significant others would as well. We just have a natural foreshortening view as we look down and under appreciate where we fall.

I agree. But let’s be clear. That 7” visual length is really about 8” bone pressed allowing 1” for a fat pad. I think we all know that 8” BP is near the top. Most of the studies on calcsd usually report the max length encountered was 8”-8.5”. I assert that you have picked a statistical outlier as “pretty stout” :)

Really my point exactly. It didn’t firmly (no pun intended) dawn on me that the occasional compliment from a woman on my size was authentic, and that I was already fairly well above average before embarking on a fairly dedicated PE regimen.
