true average size?

“small: < 6.0 bpel <4.25 eg
avg: 6.0-7.0 bpel 4.25-5.25 eg
large: 7.0-8.0 bpel 5.25-6.0 eg
huge: 8.0-9.0 bpel 6.0-6.5 eg
Monsta: > 9.0 bpel >6.5 eg”

My bpel is large, but my eg is huge. Now, if I can just get my bpel to be “huge,” I’ll be happy.
(P.S., not interested in being a “Monsta”)

Kinsey did not measure research participants penis size — it was all self-report with its sources of bias.

I’m looking to go up two categories to huge.

I am still in the average department in both catagories, but I am in the very high end. I quess I almost have a large dick.

I don’t want to be malcontented about this, but this is one of the more aggravating threads I’ve read in awhile. Unless everyone was being completely sarcastic, I just read three people’s opinions of measurements here, and all three of them were different opinions on what was “small”, “average”, and “large” and so on. Now either everyone has their own table in mind, or they got them from other sources, which ought to be telling everyone how much of an inexact science “average size” really is.

Who cares? You do…for you. So worry about your goals and not what everyone else considers small, medium and large. The one useful thing here though, was Krowax’s thing about the study measurements being bone pressed. Now that I had no idea of. I always though those things were done non-bone pressed, in which case I just became a lot happier, since my bone pressed measurements add a nice amount to my size.

True size is a fickle thing, whether it’s because you’re on the honor system, like the Kimsey thing, or whether men without confidence run away when they see a female nurse with gloves on, you’re not going to get a perfectly accurate average. If you’re over 5”, you’re starting off fine, and I don’t recall seeing anyone’s measurements in here that were less than that.

Stop worrying so much about what other men are packing, and worry about packing your own heat.

I think the point that there are a lot of tables makes the point that much of this is subjective individual interpretation. My table is the way it is because I like nice even numbers dilineating what is considered certain length categories.

Phoward,
The “categories” were just rough averages, so that guys can have a clue about where they really stand. Some guys truly don’t know that 8” plus is huge, or that 4.5” EL is small. It’s no different than average height tables.
The best estimates I’ve read are roughly (for BPEL):
Below 5”: Small
5-7”: Average
7-8”: Large
Over 8”: Huge
And for EG, it tends to be around 4.75” - 5.25” average; below the 4.75” is thin, above 5.25” is thick.
And Phoward, it sounds to me like you’ve contradicted yourself somewhat.
You’ve stated, “Who cares?” And, “So worry about your goals and not what everyone else considers small, medium and large.”
But then, regard Krowax’s revelation about BP measurements, you said: “I always though those things were done non-bone pressed, in which case I just became a lot happier, since my bone pressed measurements add a nice amount to my size.”
How did that “add a nice amount” to your size? It didn’t “add” anything to your size. It only made you happy because it elevated your ranking amongst “other people’s measurements.”

According to Wadzilla…Im huge!

Wadzilla,

Well said.

Perhaps others feel the same way I do about this but despite what the surveys say I’m inclined to accept myself as average… Seems that whatever I have plus an inch more or so would make me feel “big / huge”. It’s like I pull the ruler out and look at 8.5” and think it seems big, even for BPEL but when I hold it down to myself the size seems to deminish for some reason. Fucked up / odd but thats the way I see it when I apply the rule to myself.. I’m sure I’m not the only one that feels this way.

RWG no you are not the only one. Many here suffer with body dysmorphic disorder. Many 80# anorexics look in the mirror and see a fat person.

You’re missing the point of my post. Of course I’m happy, I learned something new, and it was good for me. What annoys me is that this question of what “real average size” is must be asked here a hundred times a month, and you’re just not going to get a clear answer. According to the tables posted, there were variations among each person, but those slight variations make a hell of a lot of difference to most peoples psyches. The point is, you’re not going to get a clear definitive answer, so it’s a waste of time to ask.

I may be a little more cynical about this than some because I personally am in no rush to get to a certain size. I’m just doing it for some long term potential, but I’m not going to break down if it doesn’t happen. I’m worried that some people are hinging themselves too much on this sort of thing, instead of doing their thing.

I’ve seen plenty of posts asking what average size is, again and again, and there’s never going to be a clear answer. It gets irritating.

I agree that guys shouldn’t stake their entire futures upon reaching a certain “category” or benchmark. I will readily agree that these things aren’t etched in stone. I was simply stating that, statistically, it seems that something like 83% of all men are between 5-7” erect (and 24% of those are right at 6” - the most common measurement, apparently). And most guys here are probably beginning in the 5-7 inch range as well.
But I think it’s a common concern/fear among men - particularly adolescent males - about where they stand, how they “stack up.” A guy with 5.5” wants to know if a lot of other guys have 8” - or whatever. We want to know, especially when we’re young, if what we’re giving to a gal is small, medium, large, etc., etc. It’s no different than a 13 year old gal turning sideways in a mirror to see what her boobies look like. It’s just human nature.

Maybe I’m not human or something. I fit right in at the average or slightly above categories, but I’ve never felt this incredible pressure to get bigger, or what I was giving a girl. I’m 23, for the record, I don’t know what your definition is of adolescent (Please everyone, no responses with age tables :-)

I guess it just never really bothered me. I do this stuff mainly for fun, even though it’s backfiring on me now, hurting my girlfriend a little bit. Oh well, to each their own, I guess I just don’t identify with some fears. I just don’t want anyone else to have to deal with them either :-)

Phoward,

I think you are one of the lucky few for having those feelings. I tend to feel, and think a lot if not the majority on the board feel, that this is a big issue and fear.

However, I think you have the right attitude about it. Unfortunately I just haven’t been able to get there yet. (Psychologically)
