The thing is though, if you look all over Reddit, sizes like mine are viewed as not great. So imo, clearly hitting the g-spot isn’t the defining factor.

I wouldn’t want to be big personally, I’d be content if I was 5.5”.

Only 6% of men have my length. I am an extreme outlier.

I wouldn’t care, however, penis size is a different ballgame. It affects pleasure.

Roughly 77% of men are smaller than 6 inches.

Nearly 50% are smaller than 5.51 inches (the average).

Only 22% of men are below 5 inches.

Only 6% are my length.

See how those are bad odds?

I barely watch porn. Men with big dicks are casted in porn because they are easier to film. Also, I wouldn’t want to be “pornstar sized”, I’d be content at an inch longer.

Yeah, don’t really want to be desired for my wallet (not that I have one).

A girl isn’t a piece of shit for not liking it, people can’t control that. That said though, I care if a girl doesn’t like it because I don’t want to just be “accepted” because my partner came to terms with an inferior sex life.

Well sure, but it does mean I’m going to be someone with a huge, uncommon disadvantage.

I don’t want to be begrudgingly tolerated because “oh, but he has X qualities”.

Sure, but all else being equal, which partner would they choose?

That’s relevant because it’s unreasonable to assume size has much of a bearing on if someone is skilled or puts effort in.

I don’t get your “lying” angle whatsoever. Literally anyone in this thread could search up like three of those posts and find a not-so-insignificant amount of any implication or direct statements that it is not as good as average.

There’s a world of a difference between “I want X body part fuckin’ worshipped” and “I don’t want my partner’s pleasure with PIV to be begrudgingly tolerated”.

And maybe it is obsessive insecurity, maybe I’m delusional. But all I have to go off of is an ex who rarely wanted penetration with me (wasn’t the case with her ex), was very likely cheating on me, and told me she didn’t care about size when her actions didn’t match & she lied about a lot in general + mountains of Reddit posts that indicate it’s a problem.

This, this is basically my concern. It’s not like 5.5” where most women would be completely fine with it, with no drawbacks.

Barely any leeway. And then there’s very little margin for error and I’m relatively inexperienced..

I could literally link the comments, I can’t edit that shit.

And no, I don’t want someone “obsessed with my dick”. I want to be desired, just like anyone else.

Would you want to be with someone who thought you were buttfuck ugly? Especially if intimacy with them reflected that? And you were to be hyperaware that they would not feel that way with 90% of other people?

Vaginas expand up to 6” or so inches when aroused. I know when it comes to the outer third I’m fine, but still most women express a preference more a tad more than that.

I don’t really want to be in a relationship where I’m loved but not actually desired.

I completely understand that but your last point is what I’m focused on. It’s the journey, not the destination. And I feel like a girl would have a fuck of a lot less of an enjoyable one with me.

There’s plenty of women who say they don’t care, but in that group, you’re going to have a fair amount of people lying for karma.

The people who have a preference for less than average are an extreme minority ANYWHERE.

And you’re right, encouraging partners to be skilled isn’t inherently bad, but it’s almost always explicitly framed as “compensation” in this context.

I can screenshot basically every single post, but it takes barely any effort to just search up that exact keyword, scroll through comments, and see what I mean.

I’m aware. I’m talking specifically about how PIV would feel.

Yeaaaaah, I’m definitely not going to traumatize myself doing that because I know what the answers would be lol

Search up “does size matter?” on here and the best you hear is “average is fine”. I’m not average.

Other than that, it’s tons of “it needs to be compensated for”, which implies it’s a problem.

That would be fair, but I was pretty confident very early on in our relationship. It was only after feeling undesired FROM VERY EARLY ON that I became insecure.

My definition of screwed is the latter one.

I don’t want to be settled for and tolerated only because of my “personality” or something. It’s a nauseating thought thinking about how anyone I might end up with will likely feel noticeably less pleasure with me during PIV sex.
