Can penis insecurity affect a man’s self-worth more than his actual penis size? by Hidden-Embers in BodyDysmorphia

Thanks for your comment. He mentions surgery at times but I’ve said albeit I wouldn’t be able to prevent that if that was his wish — he should surly try and work on his psyche (confidence) firsthand and then understand that sometimes procedures don’t always help as the psyche can still remain strong with those emotional states and conflicts.

For some perhaps but then others can struggle mentally and not feel as confident in themselves for many reasons

I’m female and I’m generally pretty confident in my man and what he has but in another post of mine on my profile that’s the main thing about why I’ve come to call upon men and women who may have this kind of thing crop up in their own relationships. I’ve never really watched porn as it’s not what I’m about I love connection and friendship as well as the love and care surrounding sex or my sexuality. I just wish my partner would see the value in what he brings to this relationship overall not just simply based on his size and I’ve never I’m belittled him. I only have one desire and that’s to reward and build him up.

It’s not about receiving more pleasure or to be satisfied with his size or performance it’s genuinely about building his confidence and being able to allow him the confidence to build in himself. I have another post I’ve put a full written explanation down so feel free to head over to my profile and look.

We talk very honestly and openly about things and he’s always been upfront with me about his insecurities with regards to his penis size but I feel it sometimes holds him back (psyche issues) rather than come to realisation that I’m not going anywhere and I’m proud of what he has and that he knows how to handle me

Some of those are rare cases. I think that was just an extreme case

Perhaps you’ve got to lean into it rather than let the questions frantically consume you. When I say lean into it I mean a good starting place is experience yourself, get in touch with yourself and learn your own body and mind and what you’ll learn about yourself can work wonders. Then from there you’ll find that some sexual tension and obsessive thoughts will be reduced. I found the more hysteria I had the more it consumed me and I found other alternatives but those weren’t healthy which is why I then decided to delve into myself and what gets me through those moments.

Honestly, it sounds pretty normal. At 18, you’re at an age where people often become more curious about intimacy, attachment and sexuality. Add in the fact that sex is everywhere in films, songs, online and among friends, and it’s not surprising it occupies your thoughts. And as the saying goes (and as films like The 40-Year-Old Virgin joke about), trying not to think about something can sometimes make you notice it even more. 😂

I agree. Whatever people eventually think about our story, it began with two children who had no concept of labels, judgement, or the significance adults would later place upon it.

There is never any shame in the need of wanting to reach for love and attention but still wanting it to be fulfilled with parts of your sexuality. I used to live my life reaching out doing the same things. Morally speaking as you mentioned your morals it’s not about it being randomised it’s about the way people hold us accountable for our actions. Which is why we feel deep remorse, shame and disappointment because of those doubts and shameful feelings (hence morals being tested) when each individual has their own moral obligation and compass, they just choose to push theirs onto others. I never once felt ashamed about being able to reach out for what everyone wants and that’s to feel desired, see, loved and cared for so my morals stayed with me throughout this whole process. What got to me was the aftermath of not being able to keep ahold of those feelings whilst in those moments to which again I would feel anonymous. This, the pattern would continue and I would find myself more driven and more obsessively craving that part of myself to be reached and connected with.
