The Top Ten Things You Should Know About Penis Size

1. A male’s genitals generally get as big as they are going to get by 14.9 years of age, on average. Late bloomers will mostly have caught up by age 17 or 18. 90% of penises measure between 5-7 inches. The rest of us fall just outside that range. There currently aren’t any penis enlargement methods that are both safe and effective, so your best bet is learning to become comfortable with what you have and stop obsessing about penis size.

2. The truth is that size rarely matters. Most women you talk to will say that size doesn't matter to them at all. There are some size queens out there who say size does matter to them, but the truth is they are relatively few and far between. Frankly, if a woman is only interested in the size of my body parts, she isn't a woman I want to have anything to do with, anyway.

3. Penis size is definitely more of a concern to men than women. In one survey, men thought the average penis size was 10 inches. Women thought it was 4 inches. In another survey, men thought that penis size was the 3rd most important feature for a man. In the same survey, women rated it only 9th. Most generally, when I have seen women speak about penis size, it’s either that they want to know how to get their man to quit obsessing about his size, or they complain that their man is too big and hurts them during intercourse. I don’t see them complaining that their man is too small.

4. Stop worrying about the dimensions of your penis. Mind-blowing sex is about everything BUT size and measuring. Mind-blowing sex is about being completely naked and vulnerable with your lover - physically, emotionally, spiritually, and psychologically. Honestly, you’d be doing yourself a huge favor to focus on things other than your penis – things like your character, your willingness to please, your ability to communicate, and your capacity to feel, to connect, and to love, just to name a few.

5. Flaccid size has nothing to do with erection size. You could have a flaccid penis on the small side that grows into an erect penis that’s on the large size.

6. The differences in size that are apparent when you look at a group of flaccid penises become less apparent when these same penises grow erect. In other words, smaller penises tend to grow proportionately larger than bigger penises do during the process of erection.

7. The correct way to measure the penis is to place a ruler along the top side of your penis. Measure from the base of the shaft to the tip of the head. Don’t push the ruler into your gut or stretch your penis if you want an accurate measurement.

8. Having a firmer erection will increase your size, so giving up alcohol, smoking, and caffeine, and getting regular aerobic exercise will all help.

9. Some experts claim that you can gain an inch in visible penis length by losing 35 pounds. You don’t actually gain an inch, mind you - you can just see an extra inch that used to be hidden by fatty tissue.

10. Sex isn’t penis dependent. We can make love with our entire selves. Trying to make love with only a penis is like trying to write calligraphy with a thick crayon. Once you let this sink in, it will help you let go of your anxieties about size, stamina, and performance, too. When a man knows that he can please his lady regardless of the size (or even presence) of his erection, he can be completely focused and in the moment, rather than focusing on his insecurities and perceived inadequacies. This makes him a better, more confident lover.
