I’ve been reading this thread regularly for several months. I haven’t made much progress in my formal PE efforts this last year, but I that there is something to it because before I had ever heard of PE’ing I had did a lot of things approximating jelquing and stretching and I think the length of my penis probably has increased about an inch or so since my early twenties. So I think it works and I have had some modest progress in the last year. Anyhow I have always had a large cock and new from an early age, just from reading, that I had a larger than average penis (6.5” x 6.0 when I was fourteen) up to 7.0” x 6.0 when I was in my early twenties.
But for a lot of reasons I didst have any confidence around women. The fact that I had an above average sized cock did not give me the confidence to approach women or believe that they would want to be with me. I had read that that the average sized penis was 6.25” x 5.0” and though I knew I was definitely bigger than that, I assumed that I was just a little above average and that in any event a big penis would only go so far with women.
Long story short, I was shy around women and my lack of confidence and self-deprecation acted as a barrier that kept them from approaching me in a way that I could recognize. One of the things that added to my lack of confidence was my lack of experience with women, a vicious circle if you know what I mean. Eventually, when I was 23 I decided that I would go to a prostitute to get experience.
The first woman I had sex with was older, maybe 30 or 35 (it’s hard to tell age of older women when you’re young). But I think she kind of figured me out as a shy guy. I mean I’ve always been tall and athletic, and fairly good looking, but I think she could tell I was a later bloomer. Anyway, the first thing she said when we got naked was, “You’ve got a BIG dick.” I said, “Really?” And she said, “Yeah, it’s a whopper.” The sex was, in hindsight, perfunctory, but her words gave me a good feeling that I think were the first step in transforming my sexual self image.
Of course, in my lack of confidence and low self esteem I just assumed she was being kind. But at some level I figured there was something to it. I knew I had a bigger than average penis and the fact that she found it worth mentioning meant something. I could put it off to mere kindness or pleasantness, but the fact that she thought it was worth mentioning made me think a little more concretely that, “yes, I am a guy with a big dick.”
It took me several more experiences with prostitutes before I had the confidence to believe that an attractive woman would want to have sex with me just because that’s what she wanted. The fact that about half the time I had sex with a prostitute she would, without any prompting from me tell me I had a big dick, did a lot to build my confidence. One of them told me something, that’s worth passing on to other guys who are well endowed. She said, “You should go dancing to meet girls.” It took me a while to figure that one out, but it’s good advice. I’d say more than half the time I have slow danced with a woman, my stiff penis pressed against her belly it has resulted in her saying she wanted to go home together.
Anyhow, that’s what it took for me to get confident. It sounds kind of crazy, since even now my dick is not quite 8” x 6”, but learning and believing that I had a big cock totally turned around my attitude and relationship to women. After my first sexual girlfriend I never went back to prostitutes and though my confidence has risen and fallen over the years, in the back of my mind I now have the feeling that if I get a woman in bed she’ll be mine. I’m sure a lot of this is confidence and not simply the penis size, but for me it was sort of a chicken/egg relationship—-knowing I had a big penis gave me more confidence with women and as I had more experience with women I came to understand that my penis was really remarkably big in the opinion of most women I slept with and that was a real plus in their minds.
My first girlfriend was way out of my league in my opinion at the time I met her. She was 5’10”, beautiful, thin, but curvy and big breasted, very experienced sexually and relentlessly pursued by lots of guys. But she was just so attractive (and fun and exciting to be around) that I just threw myself into getting her. When I finally went to bed with her after a couple of months, she was totally mine! I was tall and attractive, but not sexually experienced. Anticipating sex with her I had practiced delaying ejaculation so I was able to go 15 minutes or so before I came, but by the she had come several times. I came three times altogether, but I remember her saying, “you’re about seven orgasms behind me”. She said the next morning: “Do you have women chasing you all the time” and then “Are women afraid of you. You must be nine and half inches.” With time to process these things I realized: 1. It’s true, women really don’t know how to estimate penis size; 2. My 7 1/4” penis is what passes for giant sized; and 3. Even with a sexually experienced woman, my dick really was very big.
We eventually broke up, but she was always gave me good reviews in bed witnessed by several of her friends who later came on to me. We were too different in outlook, but sex was always good. In fact a year after we broke up, and I was going out with another girl, she contrived for us to go out drinking and dancing with a girlfriend of hers It all ended up with the three of us at her apartment playing strip poker, taking a bath together and then fucking. I’m sure that she had talked me up to her girlfriend and who wanted me to take her for a ride. I had a similar experience with another ex girlfriend a few years later, and I have to think that both of them had talked my dick up to their girlfriends.
