Penis enlargements

    First of all I want to state that I don't want one :D

    It's just something I thought about after reading the designer vagina thread in TLL. As far as I'm aware there's no surgery, pills, creams or exercises that have been proven to actually enlarge the penis enough to make a difference. They can give a larger look when flacid but erect, the difference is minimal and the procedures are very dangerous.

    It's an issue that effects most men at some point in their life mostly because porn always shows lads who are well above average and it create a false sense of average size. A few recent threads in AH about the Magaluf girl have been laced with dozens of comments stating that the 24 men in the video all have 'small cocks'. I would have thought 24 blokes with average size penises is a fairly good indication of the standard :rolleyes:

    If a woman wants to really ridicule and hurt a man all they have to do is attack his penis size or lift her pinky finger, and really men just have to do the same. It can cause serious psychological issues but I can't see the world changing any time soon.

    On a recent documentary I heard something along the lines that the human penis is actually overgrown. A silverback gorilla has a penis that's only a couple of centimetres in length and it's quite thin because it's just a functional organ where humans are a lot more intelligent and see it as much more than that, it's a sign of masculinity and dominance. Over the centuries we have evolved to have what we have today and it's bred into both male and female that bigger=better etc.

    I wouldn't ridicule someone for having a small one as it's something you just can't change and I image that even if they could change it, the stigma attached to such an operation would be enough to put a lot of people off it.

    Anyone got any opinions on the matter?

    It seems that yes there was some selection pressure in humans for men to have bigger willies. As you point out gorillas are tiny, never mind in comparison to their overall body size. Chimps are rocking more but again way below the average human male. Where this selection pressure came from is hard to pin down, though it's likely it was sexual selection by human females at some time in our evolutionary history. It may have come along with walking upright where the area was on more constant display. It may have something to do with male to male display but the reality of some being "showers" and other being "growers" seems to bring it back to what women selected for.

    Testicle size also shows differences among the great apes. Gorillas have harems so have smaller testicles as they don't need to compete as much with other males. Though rogue males do nip in and impregnate females so they still get duped. Chimps are highly competitive and promiscuous so chimps testes are huge so to increase the individual males chances with each sexual encounter. Human males are in the middle in size and all sorts of things have been read into that.

    Humans alos lost the penis bone, which means we have to rely on blood pressure. This may have been a way to judge reproductive health as your general health and age can really show in the efficiency of your willy.

    There was some selection going on with women too. Much more in fact. They became fertile year around and hid this fertility. They have enlarged breasts and bums. Indeed to any other great ape a woman would be ignored simply because she looks like she's either currently out of season, pregnant or lactating, so this was a huge set of changes. The human clitoris also migrated from a position where it would be more directly stimulated by intercourse to a position where this was less the case. Sexually and in sexual display we're very different to other great apes. Tis fascinating stuff.

    As for size and function I would imagine this depends on a lot of factors. Some women are "size queens" and require more in the trouser dept. to feel stimulated. Some women get more from intercourse than foreplay so a larger willy may come into play more there. Other women would not be as happy with a monster. I would say that so long as you're in "normal" range average in length and girth you're grand with the vast majority of the ladies. After all we're "designed" to be as compatible with each other as possible. It's a good bit down the list as far as orgasms are concerned anyway. Clitoral stimulation is where it's at for the most part, either directly or indirectly. A large penis in girth can stimulat the larger area of the clitoral body surrounding the vagina, but again depends on the woman. Length seems to be more about "oh wow lookit the size o that thing" rather than function.

    I do recall reading of another study which showed some correlation between penis size and social confidence. The larger men where correlated with more confidence. The more cocky they were, the more cocky they were so to speak. Can't recall how strong the correlation was mind you. Some researchers can get the horn over 3% correlation so...

    Increasing the size? I read somewhere or other in an actual study that stretching and forcing more blood into the tissue of the penis did give some gains in length and girth. Took ages IIRC and the increase was small, one or two centimetres in new money, again IIRC.

    If a woman ever insults you by saying your penis is lacking, I would suggest commenting that at first you were torn between making love to her or going spelunking. By the time she looks that up, you should be far enough away to avoid testicle damage. :D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Saw a programme about this a few months ago, for some men it takes over their life worrying about it.

    TBH it's something I never really thought about, but some of the men in the programme were really small and although their partners said it made no difference to their sex life it's hard to believe it to be the case.

    I increased the length of my penis by one quarter of an inch in length by helping for two months 10 minutes a day.

    I suppose you couldn't say it's exactly "proven" - but anecdotally there are forums full of people who have enlarged their penis using certain exercises. I've never tried it, just skimmed through a few forums out of curiosity, but it seems common enough to be able to add an inch or so within a few months to a year if you're consistent.

    Regarding the ridiculing of people with small wieners... It's one of many topics that groups of lads commonly take the piss out of each other over (alongside being gay, bad with women, short, fat, etc). There's really no point being insecure over it. Sure, it may not feel nice if someone says you have a small penis (especially if you actually have a small penis) but it's just one of those things you have to get used to and stop worrying about.

    There are so many things that people can be insecure about or offended by; it's pointless to try to avoid them. I don't go out of my way to make people feel bad, but if I make a joke about e.g. turtles and it turns out that someone is deeply offended or troubled by mention of turtles... Is it really my fault? I take a similar attitude to penis size comments.

    I had problems growing up with the size of my penis. I only ever seen them in porn so thought I was on the smaller side of life. Not having a father around I was always taking into the women's changing rooms and toilets when growing up so never seen too many normal penises to compare. Then as I got older I learned I wasn't small I was just normal.

    Me and a friend partook in a threesome, this guy is a foot taller than me but no bigger down stairs which the girl found funny as she thought the bigger you were the bigger the penis.

    A lot of girls have a skewed view of what's normal as many they see are from porn or the lads with the big ones whipping them out any chance they get (we all had that one friend).

    It doesn't bother me anymore as I now know that its not all about the size! I have a friend who is huge but is a 2 minute man. Where I'm a normal size and go a lot longer. I'm no stranger to some clitoral stimulation either, where as he is the type of fella to give it his all for 2 minutes then just cum and leave it at that.

    Most women don't care, but you do get the few who will. If you are with a girl who you care for and believe she cares for you then penis size should be irrelevant.

    I am of the opinion that PE exercises work. As I'm posting this from work I'm not saying how I've come to this conclusion!

    From what I've read, lads who do PE are often average or above average before they start. Perhaps if you already have a big one, a relatively large part of your identity is associated with your cock encouraging you to try to make it larger again.

    "If a lot is good then more is better and too much is just about right"

    Another thing that may be relevant, I remember reading an article about some stock market trader in the US who had a very bad time in his career and life generally, lost a lot of money etc. Apparently he coped with this very well, it didn't dent his confidence or make him unhappy and this was attributed to the fact that he was "packing" and no amount of financial hardship could take that away from him. Wish I could find that article now.

    I just find the extent of your sexual knowledge of your friends and their involvement in your sex life mildly disturbing tbh. :D

    then do anal to her, she will appreciate any size;-) unless she is well trained:)

    is this what boards has come to :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 372 ✭✭kult


    Btw every woman cares about the size, bigger it is better it is. They just lie so man with small ones won't be hurt etc. This is the truth.

    I don't think most guys realise the troubles with having a big dick and I know that they are nothing near the issues small dicked guys suffer from but they are still issues all the same. Many women also grossly over estimate the size of guys dicks so most average sized guys are fine.

    I also prescribe to the theory that it can grow with 'exercise', much like arms etc etc

    I was always average size, was never into relationships and only had occasional one night stands, maybe slept with about 50 people before I met my current girlfriend, but we've been at it like rabbits ever since we've met and it's definitely gotten a good inch and a half longer, and much much wider

    You're going to have to explain this... Using it doesn't make it bigger because it's not a muscle. Exercises like jelqing damage the penis in the hopes to enlarge the blood vessels, quite often leading to issues with ED or your penis developing a bend.

    Having lots of sex is good exercise for your body, not penis. Losing weight will increase your size so I'm guess this is what's happened to you?

    I took <snip> for 8 weeks at 2iu a day and it got bigger and thicker, then it came back down to the original size.

    On what basis do you believe helping damages the penis?

    I jelqed and increased the size of my penis without any negative effects.

    If you just google side effects of it you'll find plenty of info. A lot from people like yourself saying they've never had a side effect and calling the ED effects bullshít. But this is their personal opinion as they haven't encountered issues. On the flip side of the coin you'll find plenty of men who have suffered ED issues after jelqing.
