Super Accurate

What is with all of the super accurate and WEIRD measurements people assign to their penises? I mean, 8.3? 6.8?

Inches are not broken up into tenths. How do people come up with these numbers? Can you really tell that yours is .05 inches longer than 6.75 (or 6 3/4)?

I just don’t understand why the tenth of an inch has become the standard of measurement in PE. Rulers are not set up that way.

my ruler goes in increments of 0.625” so I can be that accurate.

It’s the European conversion, we use centimetres.

Some rulers definitely are setup that way, and in other cases, people measure to the closest half or quarter inch and estimate from there.

The incremental results of PE are so slow and slight that to be able to quantify progress, you need to be ‘super accurate’.

The first half of my ruler is in 16ths, and the second half is in 10ths. Which probably suggests that a European ruler is the best thing for measuring yourself!

The whole world (well most of it) works in tenths, its called metric. The only thing that’s WEIRED is those stupid imperial fractions.

Went to the store the other day to buy some drill bits and the sizes looked normal. 0.25mm 0.3mm 0.5mm 1mm 3mm 5mm and so on.
Then there was a imperial box and the sizes were. 11/64 13/64 11/32 3/16 some crazy stuff like that. I donno but that to me is just stupid. God only knows why imperial is still used.

yeah i use the european standards too so it might be strange the weird numbers for the guys across the atlantic :)

That’s why I measure in 8ths, and I agree, to be so precise feels borderline crazy sometimes, I look at the ruler and I’m trying to think whether it’s 7” or 6 7/8”, or is it being held the same way I held it the other times. It can be quite frustrating, then you also have to consider your EQ.

That is crazy. I’d sort of like to see a pic of an inch broken down into tenths. And are those tenths of inches found in America or elsewhere? I understand that most of the world uses metric, which works in tenths, hundredths, etc. But Inches are not metric. I can’t imagine.

I guess it’s not much different than a meter stick being broken into 39.whatever inches though. I also think that’s weird, but I’ve seen it so I accept it.

Plenty of non-US of A guys convert from metric and end up with measurements like that.

Given that gains do not really come in large increments, measuring in mm makes the most sense to me.

Trouble is, of course, is that metric is out out of date. It was taken as the measurement of the earth and divided down. in to tenths, But the earth has shrunk/even expanded in some places. so the metric measurements are now wrong.

I much prefer the tried and tested imperial It makes the brain work better

Apart from which 8 x 6ins. sounds and reads much better than 200.48 mm. x 153.725mm
By the time you’ve said that it’s shrunk a bit.

How cabn you have a stiff upper lip with all that to put up with?

I like to measure or think of my penis in inches because this is what people talk about penises in. Whether it’s pornstars or people on the street. It’s the standard measurement. For everything else I like to use cm, mm, metres, km’s per hour etc. But for the penis, inches seems better. Same with height and feet/inches.

For the decimals/tenths, my ruler doesn’t have it, but I still see the ruler in tenths of inches. Don’t know why. I use half inch, quarter inch markers and estimate from there. It just feels right for some reason. Last month I was 7.45 inch which was almost 7.5 but not quite. Saying 3/8 wouldn’t have been accurate as it was more then that, but not quite 4/8.

Never thought of it as wierd or a conflict, but now that it’s been brought up, it is a bit. But I still like it this way. All preconceived ideas are based on inches. 4 or under being small, 5-6 being average. 7 being above average, 8 and above being huge etc. All surveys are in inches. It would suck to have to adjust all of those ideas and convert them over. It’s the same with height. If say a height in feet/inches, you know straight away where that fits in and if it’s tall or short and what position in basketball you should play. Say x amount of cm’s and I got no clue what it means in the big picture.

I’ll go to the nearest 1/8th of an inch, 1/16th of an inch would be pushing it for me to truly be able to see a measurable difference.
