Penis Size: The True Average

Average, 6-7 inch.

Are you saying “7” is average? I think 1 inch is a big difference in either direction. A 7 ft tall person would be much bigger than a 6 ft person proportionately.

I was going to do the math to get the inches length of both, but luckily found a "Live Science" blog coverage of this. This is what those ratios work out to in lengths:

"The average flaccid penis length, the researchers found, was 3.0 inches (7.7 centimeters), with a range of 1.6 to 4.7 in. (4 to 12 cm). Stretched lengths ranged from nearly 3.0 to 6.7 in. (7.5 to 17 cm), with an average of 4.6 in. (11.7 cm)."

Knowing that stretched length is really the maximum possible length that would mean the average length is 4.6 inches. Can that be correct? Even if that was NBPFSL that would make BPFSL average no more than just over 5 inches. Wow! They should do the same studies here. Same with that UK study showing the average around 5". I honestly don’t run into many less than 6 inches and most are 6.5 and above when I meet up to mess around with guys. I think that goes to my theory which has been that most guys who are willing to play around are the bigger ones and the average and small ones are in hiding…

So the second finger is the pointing finger, right?

If you actually believe that your crazy. We have had this discussions on thunders so many times. The average erect penis is 5-5.8 inch and the girth is 4.5-4.8 inch. 5” is over average I don’t really care who tries to debate with me on that one. If it wasn’t over average, condom manufacturers would be making bigger standard size condoms. There is plenty of guys who get red rings in their dicks from regular condoms. Also 6-7 inch’s is long enough to get a comment from woman, not to your face but to their friends. I know a lot of girls that are friends with my girlfriend who are very open sexually to talking about their sex lives with me. Furthermore 6-7 may very well be the median but median and average are two very different things and can very immensely. You really think If you add up every ones penis size on earth, (before surgery or enlargement processes) and divide it but the amount of men on earth you are going to get 6-7 inch’s.

Read more threads 7 inches is all it takes to bottom out on the majority of woman and you think it is average? Why is about 80% of thunders never bottomed out on a woman. On top of that most people on thunders were over average to begin with. Look at people like Saiyan, Titlest, Keyboard, or even me. We all started very much above average. As a general rule we have come to the consensus on thunders that most men in real life with small penis’s think they are average, and men who are average or above think they are small. Myself included, I thought I was small before finding thunders and have come to realize otherwise.

I don’t want men getting stuff shoved in their faces and down their throats of the average size being 6-7 inch’s which is up to 2 inch’s bigger than average. It leads to insecurities to an unconfident man.

According to Wikipedia’s site on Human Penis Size, the median is actually a bit smaller than the average with regard to penis size which is not surprising.

While we would all like to believe this, there’s really no way of proving (or disproving) it; the ‘studies’ are all so unsatisfactory - no mention of bp or nbp and all those other issues Wad addressed on page 1. As an enthusiastic fan of amateur porn (:) ), I’m afraid 6-7 is likely closer to avg. than 5. Of course there’s the possibility of ‘self-selection’ there, but I’m not so sure.

The most reliable penis size study is the Cancun lifestyle study that is quoted on wikipedia under “penis size”. In my opinion this is the study that everyone should look at because it is the only one that matters if you are playing the field. The guys that the study measured were frat boys who were going clubbing in Cancun. These are the guys who are presumably confident enough in their dick to fuck girls, these are the guys that you are competing against. The average in that study came to just under 6 x 5 nbp.

Also, something like 1 in 10 guys is 7+ and only 2% are 8+.
only about 1-2% of guys have 6 inches in girth, I am always amazed at the amount of guys on this site who have 6+ girth.

You can safely bet that for the most part, the people on here who talk about their dicks most, the people who post amateur porn of themselves, the people who volunteer to be measured for surveys etc., are the people who are most secure about their size, because they know they are above average.

I don’t have time to find them now, but there are ‘surveys’ done by a couple of countries militaries where the participants had no choice but to take part, and the averages are considerably lower than when participation is voluntary.

I started out at 5.9 BPEL and under 5in girth and i still feel average being over 7 BPEL.

God, I’m hoping I don’t feel average if I get above 7” !

Well, When I started here I was under six inches and I felt anxious about my size due to a horrid ex constantly running me down.

Now that I’m nearly seven inches I don’t feel any bigger, but I feel less anxious about my size due to being away from the psycho bitch for long enough to not have physical reactions to the sound of her voice.

What I’m saying is that it’s not really the size of our dick’s so much as the state of our minds.

There are clearly many men out there who are railing hotties with a perfectly serviceable dick that measures no more than five inches or even less.

And women aren’t ever going to tell us the truth so we have to make our own minds up about how we feel about ourselves, and get on with it.

I do PE for myself and not to impress anyone else, because I don’t change in front of the lads on my soccer team and I don’t go to the nude beach, and my wife is happy just the way things are, as she was before the inch (which puzzles me sometimes) so I just work toward eight inches for me (and the faint hope that maybe the wife might say something).

I think it’s all frame of reference. I know I’m not average, but “feel” that way sometimes because I watch big dick porn. None of which is based on reality.

Quite the same for me. Also started at 5.9” and have passed the 7” barrier. But it is more like I feel average now and felt small before.

I do it for myself and for my own confidence and I think that is what it’s all about. I also feel that women wants a confident guy in bed and not someone with small dick issues.

At your size you are still bigger than most porn stars. Yeah I know they use shorter guys and small women to make them seem even bigger, and don’t forget the camera angles. For me it’s about if I am generally smaller, the same size or larger than other guys I mess around with. I felt small when it seemed everyone but a handful were larger than me. Now that I’m at my new size it seems I’m more middle of the pack. I can live with that minus the “internet” inches phenomena where everyone claims they are some measurement over 7”. If I can hit that, then great. If not, then I think I’m happy enough not ending up at the bottom end of the sizes and being just in the middle of the pack.
