Why do men keep worring about their penis size?

Question

It doesn't matter! What matters is if you are a man or not. It matters if you are a man that a woman can look up to. Feel safe with . We don't care about how you "measure" up. We care about how you act, how you make us feel protected.

If you can't do that, it makes no difference if you have a big one or not. Or none at all. We don't want you.

Answer 1

I'm a woman, and I've talked to lots of other women, and I've NEVER met a woman who expressed any interest at all in a guy's penis size. Never!

I think the whole subject is porn driven. Guys watch those stupid blue movies and think they should look like the porn actors. But the porn actors have been digitally enhanced, so that makes the boys think their perfectly normal equipment is sub-standard. It's very sad that these totally unreal "role models" make guys feel so insecure.

Answer 2

They think if they're smaller women will think they're inadequate. It's a silly ego thing.

And yes, Maple hit it right on the head. I think lots of guys have an unrealistic idea of what's normal because the only yardstick they have is porn stars who are hung like donkeys. Just look at how this forum is constantly flooded with boys with 6 or 7 inch penises worrying that they have small ones, when they're actually above average (the average is 5.5).

Answer 3

Worry about the size of the penis is one of man's basic instincts. An undersized penis can be clinically referred to as a "micropenis" to make matters worse.

A 2003 study found only 55% of men were satisfied with their penis size, whereas 85% of women were satisfied with their partner’s penis size.

Men worry about their penis size; women worry about their weight. We'll always have some part of our bodies we're not entirely satisfied with.

Hi Sweetie,
I know that muscle down there is like their pride, manhood, & ever so important to them. Ever watch Oprah? There's a Dr. Oz that is frequently on her show because of demands from viewers & I just had 2 get this in R answer! Dr. Oz states if a over weight man were to lose 35 lbs. He'll grow
1 inch on his Penis!!!!!!!!! ha, ha, ha, R MEN
GUYS HEARING THIS? It's a ledgit FACT!
LOL, Diana D

Answer 5

Its because we are insecure and need the validation of a woman. We feel we have to measure up to a woman's expectations. Its like women who look for men with money and who are over 6'0.

Answer 6

Thank you for telling us that.

I now feel better about this issue, and you have made my day brighter.

And I would also like to say that women should not worry about their breast size, and that men should love women for who they are. We all are born with certain physical characteristics that we should not feel ashamed about or feel so worried about. Everyone has different body shapes, and as long it's not something that really affects our day-to-day lives, we should just learn to accept the way we naturally are.


And another point is that a lot of times trying to alter our body's natural shapes can lead to unhealthy consequences. I am against any kind of unnecessary plastic surgery - surgery whose purpose it to just make somebody just a little more "sexy." Of course, sometimes cosmetic surgery is needed because the issue is something that really affects that person's happiness - but otherwise, I think we should learn to accept ourselves and accept other people for who they are.

Answer 7

I guess some people are just self concious. Why are girls so worried about how big their breast are? I see where your coming from because there are a lot of penis questions asked on here. But to answer your question I think a lot of people are just self concious.

Answer 8

I'm 17 years old, and I know exactly what you mean. I DO talk about that stuff with my guy friends and stuff, but I don't brag about it to girls and stuff. I don't really know how to put it other than that's just a thing that guys are really self-conscious about. You're right that guys worry way too much about that, but that's just how we are! haha... Some girls are like that about their boobs too though. Our physical bodies matter to all of us...

Answer 9

Probably one of the best questions I have seen in this category. I'm gay, but I don't care about my partner's sexual areas that much, as long as their is love I am happy. Men are actually very worried about what another person will think of them in relation to their body. It is just in males nature I guess.

Answer 10

I don't. My wife's told me of times in high school with her ex boyfriend who was a big guy with a big penis, but he hardly turned her on during sex because he was a big dumb caveman-looking doofus. She's extremely turned on by me because I'm intelligent and make lots of money.
