Reality check for PEers -- visit a bodybuilding forum

Things get a little out of hand here sometimes. Over the years, the standard for a big dick seems to have steadily increased in the penis-discourse at Thunder’s Place. Now it is not uncommon to see new posters worried about whether a 7x6 (or even an 8x6) dick will be “large.” The norms keep creeping upward, as PEers obsessed with being the biggest (that she’s ever had — that she’s ever seen — or maybe even the biggest out there, period!) feed each other’s anxieties by posting their PE progress and photos of the huge cocks they’re building.

For those who sometimes find themselves insecure after spending too much time on a PE forum, I would recommend visiting a bodybuilding site for “therapy.” Google around for bodybuilding forums, and read up. You will find guys seriously stating that thighs under 30” are chicken legs. :rolling: That may be an extreme example, but the general norms in a community like that — full of men competing to outdo one another and be the best, the biggest at what they do — are completely unhinged from the everyday reality in which even a moderately muscular, lean man will stand out from 95% of the fat-ass population.

They are right. :)

That post just gave me some therapy.

I can live with my chicken legs. I just can’t live with a small cock! :)

B.S. Unless the woman is screaming in pain for you to stop, you have got a little weenie. (:

I think this phenomenon is actually beneficial to us. Aiming for a 9 instead of 7 helps us get to the 7 - even if we aren’t as happy about it!

As a regular on bodybuilding.com I concur.

As a regular of the 95%, it ain’t easy being lean.

I think being happy about what you have is more important than what you have.

I don’t think both of my thighs equal 30 “. My god, that’s bigger than my waist line!

Runs, screaming into the night…………….

Porn is what is really raising the bar. And we all know about the Big Penis Book (so not cool). I think it is just speeding up natural selection. Humans already have the largest penises out of all primates. Several centuries from now, average will be 10 x 8.

All in all, pressure to have a big penis is nothing compared to the pressure women face to look good. We judge every inch of them. That’s coming from a stone cold anti-feminist.

What?

Ever notice how women having sex in porn tend to look just as happy with the average sized guys as the big guys. I know that that is blasphemy around here but take a close look and you will see what I mean.

Also, evolutionary arguments are tricky. They can’t be tested. Just guesses really. I will offer another one. Humans have large brains in relation to their body so a larger vagina is required for us than for that of many other mammals and the penis sizes of humans are just fitting a Gaussian distribution.

So, head size is driving up vagina size which is driving up penis size but most penesis in the distribution will satisfy most vagina.

Good looks correlate with health because health because healthy development results in good facial as well as body symmetry in people.

Penis size doesn’t seem to correlate with health, intelligence or creativity so I very much doubt that it is an evolutionary driving force. Probably more of a side effect.

Yea, but I still kind of want a bigger dick. Why? Beats me!

Good post!

There’s a book called The Big Penis Book. It’s been mentioned in other threads. It basically is a response to The Big Breast Book. It has pics of huge dicks (mainly from the 70’s). John Holmes is in it as well as other freakish, sick, monster dicks. It will either make you laugh or make you cry.
