Worried About Your Penis Size? 5 Things You Can Do

Article written by Maya Vukovska

There are two fundamental questions that the human race has been struggling to find an answer to: "Are we alone in the universe?" and "Does penis size matter"? And while the Pentagon can probably provide a categorical answer to the first one, there exists no official report on the second one. Actually, the answer is much more complicated than we think because the problem is in one’s own perception, and can hardly be subject to empirical study. In other words, not only the beauty but also penis size is in the eye of the beholder.

Penis anxiety impacts equally gay, bisexual, and straight men’s self-esteem. In the homosexual milieu, however, penis shaming has become a common practice, which significantly adds to the intense feeling of insecurity and self-doubt. A study by Utrecht University in the Netherlands shows that gay men are particularly worried about the size and can even suffer from body dysmorphic disorder.

Can we do something to reduce penis anxiety? We believe we can.

Let’s look at the figures

What the science of statistics cannot measure is the extent of one’s anxiety. What it can measure though is the size of many men’s penises, compare them and come up with an exact figure about the average size. In 2015, a systematic review of 15, 500 men was published in the reputable medical journal BJU International. The article reveals that the subjects were measured by health professionals and the conclusion was that the average length of an erect penis is only 5.17 inches, and circumference - 4.59 inches. What they also found was that, contrary to the popular myth, the size does not vary with race. If you are among those men who assume that average size is much bigger and their penises rank low in the competition, now you know better.

Take a flattering dick pick of your penis

While some men are overconfident about their dicks, others tend to underestimate theirs. But here’s a trick how to change the negative attitude. Try to see your member with different eyes - literally! Sometimes the angle at which you look down at it makes you believe it’s smaller than it actually is. And a bigger belly can make things worse. Do justice to your cock and try to capture its magnificence on a perfect dick pic. What you need to do is find the right angle and the light that add to the erection.

Don’t fall for false advertising

If you think your penis is too small, then you must have already considered trying one of those penis-enlargement products and procedures that have been constantly advertised on the web and in the papers. Pills, pumps, exercises, and surgeries - they all claim to increase the size of your cock. But think twice, and better ask for professional advice before buying any of those. Remember that marketers offer testimonials, unverified data, and before-and-after photos to sell you a particular product when in reality the claims of its effectiveness have never been scientifically proved.

Get in shape

As we said before, a beer gut can make your cock appear smaller. The most effective way to feel good about yourself and Mr. Johnson down there is to get in shape and lose weight. A better physical condition will do wonders for your self-esteem and will improve your performance in bed.

It’s not about the size but the sex

Have you thought about why gay romances are so short-lived? A very legitimate reason is size worship. Everyone who’s on a dating spree seems to be eager to check what’s inside a new guy’s underwear, wondering how big it is. But a big instrument doesn't necessarily mean great performance. Yes, it’s a given fact that bottoms get more satisfaction from larger guys, but all in all, the attention and the time quality the partners give each other mean more than the size. If we all shaке off the prejudice against partners with small to average penises, we’ll be able to enjoy sex like never before.

The main problem of the guys who believe that increasing their penis' size will get them more right swipes and make them better lovers is that they live too much inside their heads. They just need reassurance that, no matter the size, their dicks work just fine and bring as much joy as those of well-hung guys.
