That is one of the things that got me interested in PE. The first time I seen it the guy was in his 50’s or 60’s and everyone in camp knew about it, except for us visitors. He was from north of where we were and he spoke little English. He tried his best to explain the way they did it, the stretching that is. From all that I could gather it was just crude hanging.
I am convinced that gentle but constant and gradually increasing stretching (ads) is probably the safest surest and actually quickest form of permenant length gains.
Hi Ivory
Stumbled across this post… Very interesting what you found out by discussing with that guy - I think you’re the first one I know who has actually discussed/posed the question about PE directly to local Karamojong men. I wish I had done so, but didn’t know much about PE at the time. But must say that I’m not at all surprised, and it’s nice to have it confirmed (along with Freewilly’s post earlier) - I mean I’ve worked up in the Karamojong areas myself some years back and can definitely confirm that those guys have the biggest flaccids I’ve seen in all my travels (along with the Turkana across the border in Kenya as well). To just be a result of genetics or gravity doesn’t seem feasible to me. Although gravity for sure must have some impact on its own - I mean I remember that the Dinka in South Sudan were pretty well hung too, so something about being naked all your life and the constant gravitational pull on the penis must have an impact compared to those that wear clothes, especially in these countries where it’s so hot as well. But those Karamojong are definitely really hung - and I don’t know if it’s me mis-remembering now, but do I remember that the Karamojong guys’ flaccids dangled differently? My impression was that they hung differently to the Dinka by way of comparison - very much straight down, and similar to when you’ve had a good manual stretching session.
By way of explanation for why I’m interested in this - I actually became interested in PE after working in the area (as well as in Turkana and South Sudan), not because at the time I thought the guys were doing PE, but only because I wanted to know if it was possible to become bigger myself. I don’t know how other guys work in those areas without getting a size complex, bu everywhere I looked I saw hung men - and you can’t help noticing - men either naked or partly naked walking along the road, sitting down on stools with dicks dangling in the dust, or bathing in ponds… so clearly I felt small by comparison and that’s how I got into researching/doing PE. So glad I did as I’ve got over 1 inch now and a whole lot of self confidence. But knowing for sure that those Karamojong guys also did PE is to me very interesting and also reassuring in some way.
About photographic evidence of weights and Karamojong, I have trawled the web trying to find the original photo, but can’t find at the moment. But here is the same photo but poorer quality (original is in colour): . I had found the original photo by searching for Karamojong, and looking at the environment and other things like the necklace, it seems right for that part of the world. What do you think?
