  • Explanation for the large girths on this site

    A majority of the people found themselves here because they were unhappy with the appearance of their cock. They thought that it was small and wanted to make it bigger...

    We are told here by the powers that be that average girth is somewhere around 4.75 inches, say somewhere between 4.6-4.9. The point is that the average girth is less than 5 inches. However - and it seems futile to deny it - many guys come on here with very large girth that would seem to indicate that the average penis girth is over 5 inches.

    I believe this is because those with large girth and somewhat average length have the perception that their penises are small more frequently than those with smaller girth, and so therefore are attracted to this site. This is because a large girth has the effect of making the length look smaller than it is.

    So this is my proposed explanation for why many guys on here have larger girth than the average would seem to indicate. I hope that this explanation rests well with everybody. Sorry for the poor writing, I'm very tired.

    A lot of people probably wont like that, but I'm willing to bet you're 100% right. Perception plays more of a part in why people come here than actual size.

      But the most sold condoms go by 4.5-5" girth I thought I saw.

        We talking about measured, legit girths, or claimed girths?

          Yeah, I can buy that as an explanation

          Also, I don't believe the average starting size here at the gym has much correlation with overall average size. Guys join here more to satisfy a mental deficiency than an actual physical one whether they realize it or not - myself included

              I like this, PE Skeptic.

              So much of the ad copy and other material focuses on "inches long" and the visual effect in photography is the penis relative to the length of the legs. I think you're probably right.

              I don't talk about this much, but this site actually gave me a girth complex. I never thought about my penis girth until I became a member here and started experimenting with some of the techniques.

              I'm also convinced that a lot of guys with penis pride join forums like this. There are a lot of big starting numbers here.

                And maybe those with smaller than average stats are less likely to post their stats and even less likely to post a picture.
                Initial(9-1-11): BPEL: 7.25", BPSFL: 7.75", EG: 4.75", BEG: 5.25", BPFL: ~5.0", FG: ~4.0"
                Current(7-1-16): BPEL: 8.375", BPSFL: 8.75", EG: 5.375", BEG: 5.875", BPFL: ~6.625", FG: ~4.75"

                Realistic Goal: BPEL: 8.5", EG: 5.5"
                Idealistic Goal: BPEL: 9.0", EG: 6.0", BPFL: 7.0", FL: 5.0"

                  This will always be true, but even in some of the anonymous polls that were conducted here, the girth is higher than it "should be." I am just offering one explanation for a phenomenon that "plagues" this site. There are certainly alternate and complimentary answers.

                    Great thread Skeptic, I can tell you from my perspective I did in fact think I looked average. I was 6 x 5.5 and never thought about girth, I always thought women thought about length and only length. After being a member here i realized that all though mine wasnt the fattest in the land I was thicker than average by 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch. If you make a circle with thumb and fore finger then open it 1/2 an inch that is a considerable amount.
                    Looking back I had been told I was big or thick many times but just wrote it off to them being complimentary and making me feel good statements. I joined to get longer and nothing else. Now I would like a bit more girth at 5 and 7/8ths but if I dont get it I dont care. I dont do girth work and probably never will except a pump here or there. Not as a solid base for my routine.
                    Going an inch and 1/2 deeper than before

                      I also don't believe that all the girth numbers are completely accurate. A couple factors that can distort them:

                      1) The device you use the measure girth can change it by a tenth of an inch or two. If it's a piece of string that's more cord-like then it will artificially increase girth.

                      2) The listed girth for some guys might be the best girth they can theoretically achieve instead of a normal girth for them. For example, if I went to a porn site right now and got a normal erection, it would be 4.7ish inches girth, so that's what I list. If I were to edge for 2 hours, put my cock in a penis pump and remeasure girth, it might be 5.1 inches. I bet there are a handful of guys who would list something closer to the 5.1 than the 4.7

                      3) Guys will almost always give themselves the benefit of the doubt. Say they're unsure about a measurement or take 3 measurements and get 5.3, 5.2, and 5.1, they're always gonna take the highest measurement.

                      When you account for these factors and some of the others listed above, then I think you could safely chop off 2 tenths of an inch from the overall average girth for the site and likely be more accurate than the reported figures.
                      Starting as of 2/1/11: 6.4 BPEL x 4.8 MSEG (5.6 NBPEL)
                      Just hoping to put together one full month of actually sticking to a routine and go from there.
                      My goals mainly revolve around developing high EQ erections that last during sex.

                          Maybe its a matter of guys a little over than average were more interested in PE or the fact that some guys had an Event with a lover. good or bad and wanted to make it better by improving there sex life or making there cocks bigger. I dont think guys really become interested into there penis until they having alot of sex or viewing porn with large member pornstars. So it just so happens that guys a little.above average join the site cause of some thing that brought like minded guys togeather for a.common goal also you have guys that researched PE which brought them here while other guys big , average do not know PE Exist or Skeptical so im thinking its by chance or several common factors.

                          initial 6 x 5

                          Current 6.2 x 6

                          Goal 7 x 8

                            good find OP.

                            keep in mind that just as many, if not more people come here because theyve seen the averages, compared with theirs, and are dissatisfied. Or they can sense that their gf/wife isnt pleased.

                            or they're like me and want that trophy cock lol

                              I was also never too much concerned about my girth either. I thought I was at least average in that area. This place created some serious doubts. If 80% of the population had a 5" girth or under I would be somewhat content with my size but like I said before I don't even feel average anymore after coming here. I basically have a love/hate relationship with this place. It's great at times and it is the source of much frustration at others. I think being such a hard gainer is the toughest. Not really seeming to be making any progress even though I'm devoting hours a day to it while others seem to gain like weeds with the most basic of methods. Some seem to gain and inch like it is nothing in a fraction of the time I have been at this (almost 1 1/2 years). It drove me to extending. It's my last hope before resorting to hanging. I just don't now if it will be by the penis or the neck. Hah, ha, ha, uhh.
