Facts about penis size

          Even in this supposedly enlightened century, men worry about penis size. Though the vast majority of guys have more than enough bulk to perform well as lovers, there is a widespread masculine obsession that 'more would be better'.

Size matters

          To the average man, his penis is, consciously or unconsciously, one of the most important things in the whole world. At an early age he discovers it and immediately becomes fascinated by it. But then a note of uncertainty enters his mind: 'Isn't mine rather small?' Look at Dad's, look at big brother's, look at those in the men's changing room - and he asks himself if he will be as big as that. And so he goes on through life, always a tiny bit sensitive about the size of his organ, always convinced that it would be nicer if it were just that little bit longer.

A question of perspective

          The trouble is that every man sees his own penis in a foreshortened view. The angle at which you look down inevitably makes your penis seem shorter than it is. But when you glance at another man's organ, there's no such foreshortening effect, so very often it'll look as though the other guy is slightly better endowed. A lifetime of comparison of this can easily make you feel a bit inadequate. But it's important to realize the facts about penis length.

Average penis length

          A non-erect penis usually measures between 8.5cm and 10.5cm (3-4 inches) from tip to base. The average figure is about 9.5cm (3.75 inches), but this kind of precise measurement is rather valueless. Many factors can cause a temporary shrinkage of two inches or more, for instance cold weather or going swimming, so you needn't worry if you happen to fall short of the average figure.

Average size of erections

          We've talked about the length of the penis in its ordinary non-erect state, but how long should it be when it's erect?

Interestingly, most penises are very much the same size when erect.

Ø The man whose non-erect penis is smallish will usually achieve about a 100 per cent increase in length during sexual excitement.

Ø The man whose non-erect penis is on the largish size will probably manage about a 75 per cent increase.

          This means the great majority of penises measure between 15cm and 18cm (6-7 inches) when erect, with the average figure being about 16.5cm (6.5 inches).

Sex and women

          Virtually every man forgets that it doesn't matter how long or how short your penis is, because the vagina will accommodate itself to any length.

v The vagina of a woman who hasn't had a child is only 7.5cm (3 inches) long when she's not sexually excited. The figures for women who have had babies are only slightly different.

v Even when aroused, a woman's vagina usually extends only to a length of about 10cm (4 inches).

          This means any man's penis will fill her vagina completely.

          You're probably now wondering how the average man with an erection of six inches manages to insert his penis into the vagina at all. The vagina has the most remarkable capacity for lengthening if something is introduced into it gradually. So the exceptional man whose erect penis is eight inches long can still make love to any woman, providing he excites her properly and introduces his organ very slowly. If he does this, her vagina will lengthen by 150 or 200 per cent to accommodate him.

          In conclusion we can say that the size of penis is not the important factor for sex and better life but it is the love, security & mutual understanding between us and our partner.
