BPEL: side press or top press

How you measure is your business, I’ve always measured on the side. It is truly a personal decision, no one is going to take you out back and beat you up if you do what you like. However you measured in the beginning should be how you measure in the future.

Measuring from the side is just fooling yourself. I measure from the top all the time. If I measure from the side ofcourse it’s going to give me a bigger reading but remember it is also a false reading.

I don’t know why people say that if side measurements differ from top measurements. Mine are the same. When you measure it from the top, it is very inconvenient and the ruler covers the top of the penis; it’s very easy to make a mistake. I always measure standing up and it’s a bitch to put it right on top. Maybe for sitting measurements it’s different. (When I say on the side I mean 1/5” from the center, not 1” or anything like that).

Maybe everyone here have a different concept of what measuring from the side means. I agree with sparky, I measure a little bit to the right (less than 0.5 inches) just to avoid my suspensory ligament, because it hurts if I push hard against it. In my case both measurements are almost the same, anyway I track them every month.

I might be on to something…I wanted to post here but I decided instead to create a separate thread related to bpel measurements,based on my own experience so far

Measuring from the side is not “usable” penis IMO—you can’t put it inside your partner. Only that which is measured from the top has any chance of penetration, so numbers from the side are like saying you have more than you have. But if people want to post that way, they should reveal the standard they are using, and if we say that 8x6 is the goal, it should be defined as to the standard used as well.

Well said swinglow, I totally agree.

For me measuring BPEL is just another tool to confirm gains. NBPEL is the measure I like to take. My side press is very very accurate because I can press it directly to some bone with no pain or problem. When I measure from the top the measurement varies much because sometimes I just press harder. I mean I have no use for measurement that varies. And since I’m not here to impress anyone but to get a big dick, I don’t really care much which is the right way if my minime just keeps growing and I can measure it steadily.

For the record my side press and top press differs maybe 0.1-0.2”.

You PE for you. I don’t care if you measure from your asshole, measure from your asshole every time and keep track of the increases.

^Agreed. I measure from the top,it’s what I’m used to and that’s how I’m gonna keep on doing it.I’ve always measured it like that,starting from the age of 13,lol.

I don’t agree at all.

Yes we measure for ourselves but we also compare with each other no question, so we need standardised measuring and BPEL off the top is exactly that.

If someone tells me they are 9” BPEL I am blown away if it’s legit, but if they measure from their asshole it really doesn’t count now does it !

Any other way you are just fooling yourself and fooling the other members if you post the numbers.
Same with girth, off the middle is best and logical, these base measurements I also find kinda silly, why not just keep going down and measure your thigh.. ;)

What would be the abbreviation for measuring from the asshole?

AEL - Asshole Erect Length

Does your asshole get erect?

As long as they don’t lie I don’t see what’s the problem with measuring anyway as long as it’s consistent. If you measured from the side from day one you don’t want to start switching how to measure because it won’t be consistent. So if you do it from the side, I personally feel continue doing it if it’s easier for you. Because most of us are not going for a number anyway and most of us only measure to track our gains.

I have to agree with Pabs, the measuring standard is for use with other PEers. If you measure a certain way to track your gains that’s fine, but if you want to post measurements, make sure you measure by the standard criteria that has been agreed upon by all.

In this case it is: directly above the penis at the pubic bone, standing up, with the penis 90 degrees(9:00) from your body.
