What Penis Size Is Too Small

What Penis Size Is Too Small

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room. Okay, maybe not literally, but you get the point. Penis size! It is an obsessive thought to many guys. They wonder, “what is considered a small penis?”, “am I big enough?” or “how can I get bigger?” For some guys these thoughts have led to insecurities about their masculinity and their ability to please their partner. And some guys living in this world of virtual reality and cyber communication have begun to exaggerate what they are packing in their boxer shorts, even by science fiction standards.
Many guys have this idea that their penis needs to be huge in order for them to please their partner. They believe they will be laughed at and ridiculed. The internet is abuzz with guys worrying, like a busy small penis forum of desperate googling. How many of the people googling “condom for small penis” actually need one? In a study conducted by the University of Sheffield, researchers discovered that 45% of men would like to have a larger penis. What is most interesting about this study is that those who wanted to have a larger penis where those who had average sized penises, not those with smaller penises.
Imagine that for a moment. Almost half of the male population wishes that their penis was bigger. And it isn’t the guys with smaller penises that want to enlarge the size of their member, it’s those who are average size. So if you are wishing that your penises was larger, you are most likely average size. So what is with this obsession and desire for a bigger member?
The comedian Ron White once made a joke about how he made a homophobic friend admit he liked seeing large penises in porn. If you want to hear the joke and you promise to come back to finish reading this article, click here . The joke really points to the serious issue here. When guys watch porn, they like to see big things. Big breasts, big butts, and big penises. This has become the ideal for many men. It is what visually stimulates them. And because it visually stimulates them they feel it is essential to also visually stimulate a female partner .
Men are much more visual than women. Don’t get me wrong, women do like certain physical characteristics in a man. However, overall women are much more stimulated by words and touch than by visuals. And when women are turned on by visuals it is in a much different way than it is with men. Men display their erect penis believing the women will see how big they are and be so turned on they can’t resist him. Women may in fact get turned on by seeing a man’s erection but she isn’t thinking, “Wow, he is so big I have to have him!” she is thinking, “Wow, look how hard I made him!” These worries around penis size are sometimes referred to as “small penis syndrome”.
The truth is that the average penis size is around 5-7 inches when erect. It really doesn’t matter how big the penis is when it is not erect. This varies from person to person. In fact, the size of a penis when it is not erect gives no indication of how big it is when it is erect. I’m sure you’ve heard the expression, “are you a grower or a shower.” That’s because penises that look large when not erect still only become 5-7 inches when erect. There are also plenty of sex positions for small penis owners to make the most of their length, such as doggy style or reverse cowgirl.
Now let’s talk about the ladies a little bit. Most women orgasm by clitoral stimulation rather than intercourse. This isn’t because their partners are not big enough, it is because the clitoris has 8,000 nerve endings! Not only is the average vagina 3-4 inches long, but only 1/3 from the entrance has nerve endings. So 5-7 inches is more than enough to do the job.

For you gentleman wanting to increase the size of your penis, I have to tell you, there are no medications or exercises that can safely increase your penis size. Please, don’t write me about something that you have discovered on the internet. Trust me when I tell you, there are no safe and effective medications or exercises to increase your penis size. If you try some of the exercises that you find on the internet you could injure yourself.
If you are persistent that you need to increase your penis size, please speak with a medical professional about options. Though I personally would not recommend it to my clients, it is possible to undergo cosmetic surgery to increase the size of your penis. However, you must speak with your medical doctor to see if this is a good option for you.
Men, chances are your penis is average length. It is plenty big to do the job it needs to do. The idea that you need to be 10 inches or more doesn’t mean you’ll be a great lover. In fact, she won’t be able to feel most of it and it could cause her pain. Don’t waste your money on ointments, pills, and exercises. They won’t help and they could causes injury or other problems. If you are concerned about your ability to please your partner, then you should invest your time and energy in learning how to be a better lover. Learning new sexual positions is a great start. Discovering new ways to turn your partner on is also important. These are important skills to develop, because it doesn’t really matter how big your gun is if you’re never going to shoot it anyways!

Worried your package isn't up to par? Dr Anand Patel looks at the average penis size.
If your penis just doesn't add up to the mighty girth of the porn stars on your laptop screen, you'd be forgiven for assuming you have a micro penis. But what is the average penis size, and does it really matter what size your manhood is as long as you're still enjoying yourself?
GP and sexual health expert Dr Anand Patel looks at the size and psychology of penis size and if your proportions really are a cause for concern:
Humans are pretty well-endowed. Well, if you compare them to apes at least. Only the chimpanzee has a longer penis , and no monkey beats man when it comes to girth. But the average chap worries a lot about the size of his manhood, and always has done.
For centuries the penis has been revered as a symbol of power, masculinity, intelligence and accomplishment. And attempting to modify (and enlarge) the organ isn't a modern pursuit either.
For centuries the penis has been revered as a symbol of power, masculinity and accomplishment.
Holy men in India tried stretching theirs with weights. And no less painful was an ancient Brazilian tradition, where snakes were encouraged to bite a man's member to enlarge it.
In some Australian indigenous tribes the phallus was divided in two, and in Borneo creating holes in which to insert objects was also once common place.
According to results from a 2015 study ( in the British Journal of Urology ), the average erect penis is 13.12cm (or 5.21 inches) long and 11.66cm (or 4.59 inches) around.
But what's considered 'medically small'? Well, only 2.28 per cent of the population fall under this category and that's defined as an erect penis under 7cm (or 2.76 inches). While many men wish for a larger phallus (45 per cent in fact), it's those with distinctly average penises who tend to worry about it more than males with genuinely small ones.
Size isn't everything. There have been trends for the smaller penis too. For instance, in around 400 BC Aristophanes described the idealised Greek male as having: 'a gleaming chest, bright skin, broad shoulders, tiny tongue, strong buttocks and a tiny prick'. A larger penis , on the other hand, was considered brutal, comical and even grotesque.
There is now a huge number of penises available on the internet for a boy or man to measure himself against.
So men have been obsessing about their penises for thousands of years! But what has changed in recent times is the number men can compare their own to.
Once the only males you might have seen naked were family or fellow schoolmates after PE, but there is now a huge number of penises available on the internet for a boy or man to measure himself against.
In a word, no. It's a worrying trend, specifically because for some who consider themselves abnormally small, it can become a deeply destructive body dysmorphia . But in reality, the majority of men who worry about it are completely adequately sized.
So it's the perception of what's considered normal that needs addressing, as well as the behaviours that some may have developed as a result of their belief. These can include:
Men need to remember that while a penis in online porn certainly serves as a sign of virility and masculinity, it is also a stunt object. It's just not fair to compare it to the reality of the average phallus.
But that won't stop them seeing genitals in pornography as a stick to measure themselves against. For instance, a recent online study, conducted by Dr Ed , looked at a man's average penis size versus what he considered the ideal to be. The results showed that most men's ideal length was consistently longer than average. So why do many people now seem to believe that the standard size simply isn't big enough?
So how much of a difference does size make when it comes to sex anyway? Researchers found that although there was a positive relationship between men who had a larger penis and their sense of sexual competence, this doesn't necessarily marry up with the female preference.
The majority (85 per cent) of women are totally happy with their partner's size.
Studies have shown up to 90 per cent of women prefer width to length anyway. The average vagina is only 10 cm deep; so most men and women fit together fine.
The majority (85 per cent) of women are totally happy with their partner's size. It means the real dissatisfaction is mostly in men's heads, rather than reality.
Some patients consider penis extenders (stretching devices or even use a technique called jelqing. But such measures can cause permanent damage and lead to erectile failure. They also aren't terribly successful. Occasionally patients consider surgery , but there's only a limited amount of length one can gain. In several studies, only 25 per cent of men who had surgery were pleased with the outcome.
I hope this has been reassuring but if you're still worried about the size of your penis, do consider speaking with a doctor or therapist. Psychological interventions are incredibly helpful at supporting and helping men who are negatively focused on how they measure up.
If your penis size is getting you down, ask your GP for advice or try one of the following resources:
