How much is preferred?

We often hear size doesn't matter and that skill, chemistry, passion, connection, etc. mean much more.

Still, when size is discussed, girth is usually said to be more important than length. I know it will vary and depend on the individual, but to those to whom girth matters how much girth do you prefer and how much would the minimum be?

 

One trouble is that most people don't know that measurement -- what it is (often confused with diameter) or how to measure it. Do women ever ask guys what their girth is? Not often I think.

 

I was amazed to see that on the Doc Johnson web site -- the best known celebrity dildo site -- the measurements are given in length and diameter, even though girth is a much better pleasure indicator than diameter.

(NOT SAFE FOR WORK)


According to this article anything over 5.8 in length, and once again, girth isn't mentioned at all.

But based on what other forum threads about penis size and what works best for women, 8-10 inches tends to become painful.

But I would like to hear what women think about how much girth is to much and how much is to little; but I doubt most chicks take accurate measurements if at all. Breaking out a waist band measure probably ends the mood.

 

My guess is if your partner says OOOOOOOOOOoo gawwwwwwwwd thats good its enough.

 

I suppose size can make make a difference, although not in a physical sense.

The quality of lovemaking stems from the confidence of the man regarding his capacity to fulfill his partner's needs. If he is already well endowed, and knows it, then he is likely to be confident already. On the other hand, though, if a man is only average, or even less than average size, if he is aware that his partner prefers the lesser sized man, then once again, that can provide the confidence for him to perform well. On the other hand, though, even if a man if average, or even above average, but believes himself to be less than those he expects to model himself on from the exaggerated porn media he has become used to, then he is already at a disadvantage & is likely to perform below expectations, because that is what he is expecting of himself.

All this would be on a subconcious level, but could still make that vital difference.

 

They say size matters but you can only go so far into the vagina.
So even if you have a 12 inch penis, you will only go in so far before she tells she's in pain.

 

Yes, but we're talking about girth. I believe the statistics are that the average girth is about 5.0 inches (12.7 cm).

 

Isn't girth the same as diameter?????

 

yes...yes it is....

 

mmm. a thick dick makes me come quick. but a longer one makes the orgasm stronger. if you touch my clit, please lick. :daisy:

 

Well I did some digging, and found the scientific journal source that is mentioned in the lay source I linked to earlier.

Out of 323 women polled, on average they seem to be very satisfied with 5.8 - 6.1 (length in inches) as ideal, and anything bigger gets mixed results of a couple of percentage points wanting it smaller or bigger.

12% said they were unsatisfied with their partner's penis size and wished it were bigger.

No it isn't Kwyjibo, girth is the distance around the penis, diameter is the distance through it, like say if you were to puncture it in the middle.

 

It's true. Take it from someone who knows. So why even bring up size in the first place.

 

Lol, so long and thick means the best of both worlds? And for the record, I'll bet I (and anyone else who knows what they're doing) could also make you cum without even using their dick

 

Don't worry about size, there is so much to do when having sex. you'll drive any girl wild with more than just your dick

 

True, when you find parts or their body that like being teased / pinched / licked or penetrated with other items (not just with the penis) & they let you know or you soon discover what turns them on or not. Even if you get turned on, you are accomplishing something pleasurable for either of you.

 

Apparently a person's skill in bed is a possible indicator of how good a parent they're going to make.

The argument is that the traits needed for good or great sex to occur mutually are:

1. Patience
2. Attentiveness
3. Good/Great Communication skills
4. Empathy/Love

The argument is that all these traits double as traits that would make a really good parent.

Comments thoughts?

 

I would say those traits are needed for a great/successful relationship. But I don't think any of those are necessary for great sex.

 

Looks like we got grounds for a nice debate then.

How can mutually good sex be assured if each person in the act isn't communicating successfully to the other about what is good or bad?

 

na - girth is normally the circumference rather than diameter.
