I prefer using cm. It gives me a larger number. A cloth tape measure, rather than a wooden ruler, will also increase the number.
The accepted method is to take a flexible ruler, and put the end firmly against your pubic bone on the topside of the erect penis, and measure to the meatus or hole in the glans, straightening out all curves in the shaft. Measuring from the bottom gives a false reading. Maybe that is how these young guys are able to boast about their 9 inch penises.
Although the ruler along the top of the penis is the generally accepted method, a more accurate method it to insert your penis into a tube with a ruler, or some kind of marker inside, then measure how far it's been displaced. This method gives a precise measure of how far you are physically able to penetrate a vagina.
I have a pair of jeans with a measurement in inches along the zipper. Anyway, I measure along the top.
lol cut it off and staple it to a desk and measure if u can do this in 10 seconds the re sew or duck tape it on and ull be fine (no guarantees) yeah just from the top of the base to the tip thats what is going in the other person. if i go from the bottom up im a monster lol
That is incorrect. The correct way is to hold the ruler firmly along the top side of the penis while it is sticking straight out perpendicular from the body. In order to compare to penis size surveys, you should push the ruler firmly into your pubic bone. That would be called Bone Pressed Erect Length. Doctors and studies go by this. Women on the other hand estimate a size by what they can see on the top side. Measure from the skin of you pubic fat pad, to the tip of the head. Non-bonepressed erect length.
Quick tip: No matter what method you use to measure, I have found that I can easily gain an extra inch or so if I have my girl grab my cock with both hands and pull on it ala tug-o-war style while I'm measuring. Sure, it'll hurt like hell, but trust me guys it's completely worth it to gain those little extra bragging rights when those inevitable conversations about the size of your cock come up.
Measure your penis? Why? It isn't like breasts, which need to fit into a garmet, or the displacement of a car engine, which has to produce horsepower. Measuring your dick is for small boys who feel insecure about their package. The only "measurement" that counts is whether or not it fits into the place for which it was intended. Childishness.
Gerard Depardieu used an electric carving knife in "The last woman" (1976) Everyone agrees that it was simulated. Sounds sensational, still it's a great movie about a cockcentric guy...
