Measuring The Fraud

Isn’t that supposed to be in the member’s pics section?

Yes, it should be! Thanks!

Thanks Wt282,

Also a nice demonstration of searching skills.

Yea, I am a 1/4” bigger when I am seated than standing. If I go parallel, then I am another 1/4” or so bigger, so I am almost 7” BPEL when seated and parallel. What is that about stats don’t lie, but people do.

Well, I get a longer measurement when I am seated.

But longerdong, it’s not like there is a rule book on these things. Who can say that measuring standing is the right way, and seated is the wrong way? There is no right or wrong way, the main thing is consistency. If you started measuring standing, then continue so.

I mean, all the point of measuring is to see your progress, and not to compete with other guys.

So, if you are so very much offended by guys who measure their penises when seated, don’t look at the pics. No one is forcing you.

Thank you guys for the replies but I think most of you missed the point. This is not an indictment. I’m simply saying that from my own experience, I’ve made the mistake of measuring while seated and leaned back just a bit and have gotten a larger measurement. The following month I measured and it was smaller. This was because I didn’t lean back as I had done the previous measurement. It discouraged me because I had put in some long PE hours only to see declining numbers. So, I really didn’t know what I had gained if at all because of this.

Mr. Commanderblop & Chicken,

This isn’t about me trying to compete with anyone. This site should be about us trying to compete with our former selves. Be bigger and better than we used to be. We are all here to help one another achieve that. But that can’t happen if there’s an issue of credibility. Do you get my point?

I don’t want to split hairs. There is a lot of common ground in what you said and what I said. A couple of us just wanted to flesh out one related tangent.

I am with you 100% that people measuring with different methods produces results that are impossible to compare. :)

It’s o.k. to split hairs as long as you do it from the top and not the side. :D

I agree, it doesn’t matter if your standing or sitting. The purpose of measuring is to make sure your making gains. Not just for bragging rights. Personally, I think you should measure in whatever position gives you the largest measurement. Standing, sitting, whatever.

If your having sex sitting, you wont stop your partner and say: “honey, I’m cheating by sitting down, lets stand so that my dick will be 1/4” shorter”. If its longer sitting down, more power to you.

I don’t think we missed the point, LongerDong. I think that you are repeatedly raising an unfounded issue of credibility.

I agree that there should be a standard style of measurement. There is already a page on this site on the subject - Measure Your Penis - 2001 Site - Tom Hubbard - and there have been some recent threads on how to improve the methodology.

If you had posted with a thread title like “Improving My Measuring” and led with your story about how you had made a mistake in measuring, and how you were benefiting now by doing better and more consistent measuring, you would have had a lot of support, I expect.

Instead, your thread is titled “Measuring the Fraud”, and I think your tone was fairly accusatory, calling into question our credibility in two posts if we did not hew to your standards.

And you’re still losing me on how this discourages newcomers or impedes our efforts to help each other. I was a newcomer here once, and I did a lot of reading on the site before I took the leap of faith and started doing what ‘everyone knows’ is impossible - making your penis larger. One thing I didn't do is wonder if all those success stories were measuring errors. I accepted the preponderance of evidence here that PE worked. If some measured wrong, or if some (gasp!) outright lied about their gains, I felt confident that many here had gained, and that was good enough for me.

Your support for standard and consistent measuring is good, but beyond that, I suggest that it might be a better approach for you to concern yourself with your own credibility, and leave others to worry about their own.

I measure when I hang from my feet.I get gravity gains.

Thanks guys for all of your views.

Honestly my measurements are the same standing or sitting. Maybe if your over weigh and have lot more fat pad and can’t really pin point your penis meets your pubic bone. it would be more sense able standing then sitting since your fat will …roll over. (sorry, i don’t offended no one here)

Funny, I thought this thread was about doublelongdaddy…

If you always measure in the same position your measurements are always relative to the same factors. So growth is accurate for that folk. It may change when compared to others and their way of measuring. I don’t think anyone is here to cheat, we are here to grow…
