Attention VETS! BPEL measuring..

**Jay1983** · 02-28-2013

I'm wondering what the correct way to measure BPEL is. Yes, bone pressed lol I know. There's just got to be more to it than that..

When I normally measure BPEL I lay the same wooden ruler flat on my shaft, slide it to the right a little bit so that 2/3's the width of my shaft is showing, and push it into the space of fat, against the pubic bone.

Well today I decided to measure a different way; I placed the ruler centered on top of my shaft except this time I placed it on it's side(instead of flat), and pushed it up against my pubic bone. Of course I lost a little bit of length with this method, but which method is correct?

Thanks

I have asked this question about 500 times on here and never get a definitive answer - if you give me a minute I will try to find some of the numerous threads discussing it.

I mean, I just go right down the middle, push into my fatpad, and see where my heads at. Not much more to it than that I don't think... As long as you measure the same way everytime, I wouldn't be to concerned about it

Anyway I know what question you are asking and the unfortunate feeling of now wondering what your "real" size is. That may be why NBPEL is the more satisfying measurement, and good incentive to lose weight to boot...

Yeah and what good is conducting a BPEL poll or creating an average penis size when everyone is measuring differently? I understand from a personal perspective for "gains" only but when you state a size, problems come in to play.

^ YES! I'm wondering which way the correct way is for a "true" BPEL measurement, not which way is the correct way for tracking gains. If that makes sense, I'm tired lol I think I'm going to switch to the "new" way that I tried today, since it seems more logical to me, and easier. Damn, there goes my 8 incher! Oh well, more reason to PE!

I'm no vet, but if you see my measureming pics I recently uploaded on my profile, that's how I do it

Sorry, I just don't see what people find so difficult about it. Put the ruler on your dick, press it into your fat pad, when it touches your pubic bone, there is your BPEL. Viola.

No need to apologize dude, I am here to help bring you into the light. Read over those threads and you will understand better.

I've just recently found that out myself. I used to measure the same way each time but I found that when I'm pushing in, I'm not actually hitting my pubic bone, but am rather creating a space between my erect shaft and the bone overtop. So what I'm really measuring is the difference between the 'give' of my skin and ligaments vs the actual length. It adds up to 8", but am I actually that size? Well, likely not.
That's why I'm measuring NBPEL as well lately (which is 7.25") to try and get a more accurate idea of my gains.

But I find that by measuring in this way and comparing to my starting stats, my NBPEL and my BPEL aren't progressing equally.
