I'm new, but am I average

~Mr. Happy

Well, I’m just reporting what she told me. Basically it came out as him being as big around as a pop can which measures at 8.5” around if I remember correctly. So, assuming it’s not perfectly cylindrical, I guessed at 8”. I’ve heard people on here talk about units of that magnitude so I assumed it was possible. Maybe she exaggerated a bit, but I’d still assume it’s significantly more than my 5.75. Either way I’d like to get to about 6.5 girth so that I feel a bit better about it.

I’m sorry, but all these guys taking the trouble to find thunders, yet ask if they are average?

I suspect most guys who seek out thunders already have sought data on penis size, so know exactly where they are ranged.

“I’m 7.5” x 6” am I average?” posts are so lame!

Dude, I hate to break it to you, but an 8” girth - even base girth - is the stuff of legend.

The biggest girths in the porn industry are between 6.5” & 7”.

We only see 8” girths when the dick in question is made out of silicone.

Back to reality.

If your girth is 5.75”, I don’t even care if that’s mid-shaft or base girth, that’s an exceptionally fat cock.

If this girl has had fatter…well, it’s possible, sure… but so what?

Who are you competing with? Her ex? A guy she used to date? Seriously.

I will say this. You gain .25” in girth and she’ll notice.

It may not sound like much, but go to the PE calculator on the PE data page and plug in your stats. Then add just .25” to your girth and see what happens to the overall volume.

It will make a significant jump.

I’d bet this ex was, at most .5” more than you.

Guess what? She’s with you now.

Again I recommend some of our members do a little cucumber shopping. Go buy several with different girths and measure them. It is a pretty revealing exercise.

After you are done you can make a nice cucumber and tomato salad with bacon.

So ask her to try to stick a pop can in her pussy or into her mouth,
then maybe she will reconsider her eye- measurement of her ex.

Maybe she wanted to intimidate you. I don’t know why women would say things like that.
I see this over and over again.
It’s destructive.

Mr. Happy,

No offense taken. I just happen to be a large person. I have a resting heart rate of 51 bpm and bp of 120/70. I am also a former professional athlete, and I exercise hardcore cardio at least 4 times a week. (I do get what you are saying, but I am certainly not typical) As long as MOST of my penis can be inserted, even though I have a larger than average fat pad, than I’m sound as a pound. I’ve learned through some pm’s here, that alcohol is estrogenic, and it can impact fat in the pubic area.

I totally agree with you, that an average, but really stiff, dick is better than a big half erect unit. Anyways, I asked, and you gave your opinion, so that’s cool. Thanks.

I’d get rid of the fat pad. As your pride might say your a former athelete, that your blood pressure is ok, the fat pad indicates you have sloppy body fat on you. Even if your an athelete its better for it to be GONE.

Plus half of the mentality, is this. Its visual. Visual candy. What the ladies can’t see, they can’t see. If they can see 1.0” of this 1.5” fat pad, they will be more turned on. Plus you’ll be even healthier.

Yeah, maybe that is more accurate. The can of computer duster I have is 8.25” in girth and I can’t even get my mouth to the edges let alone around it (I actually feel pretty stupid for trying). 0.5 inches of girth is my goal, so we’ll see if that makes enough of a difference. I think part of the problem is the nice mixture of ADHD and body dismorphic disorder I have going on. I feel like I think about it constantly and that is something I’m going to have to get over, perhaps seeing a doctor is in order.

Thanks for the help guys, sorry if I sounded as though I was whining, just something that drives me nuts

~Ahund - I’m not sure why women say things like this either. She’s the first girl that hasn’t complimented me in that region and instead chooses to insult me. Pretty much destroyed my confidence and I’m working to get that back to where it was. Things are getting better though with the discovery of PE :)

~Mr. Happy - I get what you’re saying, I didn’t realize it wasn’t realistic for some guys to have 8” girth. I get that she’s with me now, I’m not sure as to why there is still that competetive drive in me to compete with her ex. Maybe it’s from sports. I play football, basketball and baseball all competitively and I’ve always been very competitve. For a while I just assumed this was one area I couldn’t win in although that outlook has brightened upon the discovery of PE :) . Also I think maybe I watch too much porn and am maybe being put under the impression there are WAY too many huge guys out there.

Dj,

When I was in the best shape of my life at 215 lbs and a world class athlete, I still had a fat pad that exceeded 1”. Genetics play a part in the whole scheme of things. So, please be careful with generalizations about the fat pad indicating “sloppy fat” elsewhere on the body. If you have any magic excersizes that target that area, please share it with us. To my knowledge leg raises and variations of them are about all you can do including diet.

BTW, I’m married, happily, so visual is not as big of a deal as what is actually inserted.

I’m sorry I brought up the fat pad issue.

I do understand it is a very tough spot to just shed, and Acid Jazz is correct, it is often genetic. I hear there are those trans-dermal things that help to target fat burning, but…it’s awfully near the prize possession, so probably not a good idea.

If you’re new to this Mr. Jazz the newbie routine is a fine way to go. Most folks can expect anywhere from .5” to 1” of gains (I’m talking length here) from the newbie routine alone. Beyond that… well, there’s this whole site here filled with all sorts of variations on this theme.

Stretching, using extenders, or hanging are the three preferred methods of getting length. Hanging and ADS is fairly tried and true. Stick with the newbie routine for three months and while you do, read all you can.

You’re obviously a smart dude. You’ll find your way. :)

house_md, no worries. Guys tend to be competitive. Those that are into sports, maybe a little more so. Testosterone, man, what can we do?

The older you get the more you are able to put the various ways you ‘compete’ into perspective - and learn to choose your battles.

Personally, I’d bet that your 5.75” of girth packs just the right wallop all on its own, as is; big dick. If you want more, that’s up to you of course, but I’d think you would spend your time more wisely by learning a variety of sexual techniques that will make you a versatile and amazing lover. You have a very good size right this very minute.

I’m just saying. (:

Not to say that there isn’t some fun to be had by gaining, but it’s a lot of work and takes time - serious time. Especially for girth. Be prepared.

I do think the porn thing contributes to many guys feelings that they don’t have enough. Remember this, fish-eye lenses and camera angles contribute mightily to objects in view appearing bigger, and rounder than they would in real life.

The average guy in porn is about 7” or so - in other words: large. True, there are many who are bigger, and a few honest to goodness monsters. But even most of them aren’t so “monster” as all that. The difference between 7” and 8” is only an inch - we’re not talking big differences here. Film yourself with such a camera from a business end viewpoint and you may be surprised at what you see.

Also, when viewing porn, bear this in mind: the average woman’s hand measured across the knuckles is typically a little less than 3” and many of the petite women in porn have smaller hands. Makes watching blow-job footage a little more enlightening and a little less disheartening.

See if I’m not right about this.

As to why any girl says this or that. Who knows? They could believe what they’re saying and be mistaken, or they could be pressing a button just to maintain control in the relationship. Or she could just be trying to impress you that she’s all worldly and experienced and in charge of her own sexuality. Or some combination of the above. Who knows?

Interesting that the ex was so huge, and yet…she’s with you, though, isn’t it? :leftie:

If nothing else, it’s a tacit admission that size isn’t all that.

Nice Post Mr. Happy, you’ve just ticked all of my good Post boxes.

Guys,

Imagine if your wife, SO, or for those living at home mother, walked in and saw you trying to stick a pop can, shaving cream can, or cucumber in your mouth. That thought just made me laugh so hard. Anyway, at that girth magnums are needed and I assume what you use. That alone tells you that you are not average my man. Happy gaining though!

Also magnums are probably too tight, right? I mean don’t you switch up to the big boy protection (in regards to girth) at 5.25 girth?

Thanks Mr. Happy. Your avatar is pretty damn cool. Robin Williams is a nut job, but he definitely makes people “happy”.

I agree with you about porn. The other thing that needs to be mentioned, is the amount of penetration you will see. It usually looks like the men in porn seem to penetrated 50% of the unit depending on the position. My wife and I watch quite a bit of it together, and in 14 years, we have both been able to add quite a bit to our repertoire. However, House, she has NEVER said anything about how large or small previous lovers have been in a positive way. I think that any woman who mentions this sort of thing, and than says, “but you’re the best”, is playing shit test games with you.

As discussed in other threads, your past women, and her past men, are really neither’s business. If that talk makes you insecure, let her know. If she continues talking about it, move on. My two cents

Yeah, Magnum sized condoms will most likely fit you if you are 5.25” mid-shaft.

XL Magnums are only a little bit bigger, but should cover those who are in the 6” club.

With truly fat cocks (girths of 6.5” +) I’d assume they need the custom ones to be safe, not to mention comfortable.

Agreed.

Well said.

Or as I like to say: all comparisons are cheap.

True, it’s human nature, but there should be some degree of decorum based on mutual respect. It’s important that people trust each other when they get intimate - even if it’s only for a one-night stand.

Turn it around: “Wow, your body is really nice. It sort of reminds me: I had this one girlfriend…man! She was hot! She was built like you, but her boobs were a little bigger and her ass was just… I don’t know it fit in my hand a little better…”

Would any self-respecting woman want to hear this? Probably not.

The thing is… these size comparison conversations usually only come up because we men…bring them up.

The caveat is: if you ask, be prepared to hear the answer.

In cases like these, I’d say “don’t ask, don’t tell” is a good policy.

After reading the last few post written by Mr. Happy I would say I would have to agree with his take on things. 5.25” girth is big, no doubt. A 7” penis is large no doubt about it. The porn industry with it’s magic of blowing dicks out of proportion has bread a race of basket cases. I persoanlly feel we here at Thunders and other PE forums have to clean up the fricken mess the porn industry caused.

As far as fat pads go the rectus abdominal muscle connect to the pubic bone (laymans description). This is where the fat pad is. A lot of guys neglect working the lower abs to strengthen these muscle to make them strong. Also weight lifting and cardio work should help reduce the fat pad somewhat. I also think that a diet lower in starch and simple sugars would also help lean up the fat pad.

This is my opinion I think beer beings it is estrogenic in nature adds to problem by hampering the bodies ability to reduce the fat pad. Fat is estrogenic.
