Some members are measuring their girth in the wrong way...

For what I saw in the member pictures, some members were not accurate with the way they measure their girth. Girth measure should be done with a tape, and touching all the surface of the penis. I think a lot of members are measuring themselves with the tape a bit loose (not tight as it should be done). That is the way i measure myself (tight tape)…perhaps I am measuring wrong (if that is the problem, correct me, please)…but for what I see, some members are not pressing the tape as it should be. This way of measuring can change the measure a lot (a difference of 0,3 inches). Comment your opinions please.

I measure myself with a measuring tape. I don’t think I am cheating but I don’t squeeze hard, I just put the tape around and measure, simple as that. If I squeeze than I’m cutting myself short of the layers of skin that wrap around. Just my opinion. What is the orthodox way of doing this, IE what the studies use?

I think you can tighten differently each time you measure, so you’ll never be consistent. The trick is to be consistent, so you can measure for the benefit of knowing how much you grew.

Pull it tight and then hold loosely in place while kegeling and it should be right

How about this - wrap a tape or a string as loosely as possible but still touching the skin.

Two good things about it:

1. You are consistent.
2. You have a bigger dick.

Wrapping it tight? Why? For what? To shave off legitimate inches/cms off your girth measurement - no thanks.

Moreover, I think that we need to ask when the measurements are being made i.e. before a pe exercise session or after and do they squeeze the base to force more blood into the penis thus increasing its size. Personally, its not a big deal to me but I like to know that I’m looking at consistent results and therefore determine what’s working and what’s not working for others.

I would agree with crazylanguet. It is kinda funny if you think about it: push the ruler in till it bends and draws blood but wrap the tape measure as loosely as possible? The only one you are fooling with your bigger dick is your self.

I go for a snug fit, but not painfully so.

I measure with a paper tailors tape, mid shaft at least 48 hours after any PE by wrapping the tape around the penis tightly and then kegeling once.

I think the tendency for passing off base measurements as true girth these days is also problematic.

I measure with measuring tape and make sure iv measured about 5-6 times to be sure and I agree with aspiring big that measuring tightly measures shorter than it is.

This is why i post this thread………

Bone pressed makes sense because it eliminates the inaccuracy caused by the fat pad - you are always measuring from the same point. However, ‘squeezing’ the tape when measuring girth does not eliminate an inaccuracy, in fact it creates a new inaccuracy because the amount you squeeze is variable. You can’t squeeze till you hit bone or a truely solid obstacle, so you aren’t giving yourself a better reference point, you’re just choking your dick. I think it is best to simply lay the tape on so that it is all in contact with the skin, but not pushing into it.

I measure after watching some porn and very gently stroking the wang, because this way I ensure my dick is at maximum size, without forcing enlargement by squeezing/stretching/general abuse. For BPEL I take several measurements, then I round them down to the nearest 0.1”, find the most frequent result and record that as the new length. This seems to work well.

Girth is harder because it fluctuates more readily and is physically harder to measure. I try and get my dick at maximum boner from porn and light touching, then measure girth - while it does try to shy away, it does that every time so it is somewhat consistent.

My final results seem to be accurate to the nearest 0.1”. The main thing is that I can tell if I have made gains since last time, that is after all the whole point.

Does it really matter? I mean if someone claims that they have a 6 inch girth but its only 5.75 or so, does it really matter? Not to me.

If they claim more than they really are, they are only cheating themselves…unless they have a paysite :D

My schlong is 12.5 inches long, but I measure from my asshole. Is that OK? :D

Yes, it really matter…..with that manner of thinking manny new members will want to achieve more gains, and more inches that those they can really get with PE. Moreover, many who measure in a correct way may feel depressed, because a majority of members here are claiming gains and measures they do not have.
