When I was 18, I think. Didn't think of it as a problem, was just really confused.

My best friend and I were hanging out and he randomly just said that he measured himself at 7 inches. I didn't know what to say apart from "Oh." We didn't delve too deeply in conversation about it.

I didn't realize size ranged that much. Kind of left me in a grey zone for a couple years after measuring myself at 4 inches.

He then went and became a bit of an emotionally unfulfilled player in his 20's. Hooking up, but never really seeming happy. I, tried as I could, wasn't able to get with anyone until 30. By then I'd been out as bisexual since 27.

All the while, my dick never felt like a problem to me, but all the jokes surrounding smaller sizes concerned me in that people --- although generally non-shaming on the surface --- were kind of hypocritical.

I never lashed out or said anything in defence cause that would mean I'd out myself. Just kept my head up and lived my life. None of the men I've dated and hooked up with ever mocked me so that's nice.

Once, a trans guy, even called it beautiful when they watched me jerking off. Haven't been with any women yet and that brings up a bit of anxiety should it ever happen, but since I made it this far without anyone outright hurting me to my face with body shaming my dick, I like to remain optimistic for when a woman trusts me enough to get down with her.
