Men Penis Size

Men worry about penis size for a number of reasons including:

• Actually having an abnormally small penis length, girth, or both
• Believing their penis size is inadequate due to misinformation or psychological reasons
• Social pressure, akin to the pressure some women feel to have larger breasts
• Problems in intimate relationships due to size incompatibility, or the preference of a partner for a larger penis

This issue of men and penis size is not dealt with well by our society. Either penis size is the topic of jokes or innuendo (intended to flatter if the penis is large or be disparaging if the penis is small), or the issue is not dealt with in full honesty for fear of being insensitive.

Men are therefore faced with almost daily references in society to the virtues of a large penis, and at the same time, rather patronisingly, told that "size doesn't matter". Even worse may be the assurances given to men with small penises that they can still make excellent lovers if they just work a little harder than their more well-endowed competitors, or perhaps pleasure their partners in other ways.

There is a plethora of information about penis size that often contradicts itself, increasing confusion and anxiety. Rarely is there a mature discussion on the topic, which is surprising (or perhaps to be expected) given how important a concern penis size is to many men, and to a number of their partners too.

Picture any group of men playing golf, watching sports at the bar, or entertaining with their wives or girlfriends at a social event; in all likelihood there will be a member of the group facing severe anxiety because of the size of his penis. Likewise, a member of the group who feels secure in his penis size may well have the added confidence to achieve in other areas of life.

The situation can arise if a man cannot please his partner in bed and believes this is due to the size of his penis. Men may worry that the cause of a relationship breakup is their sex life not being good enough and may, rightly or wrongly, attribute this to penis size, even before considering more obvious causes.

In some cases penis size will be totally irrelevant to the issues above, or entirely in the mind; however, in many cases a larger penis may actually improve a man's self-esteem, quality of life and sexual relationships. If modern technology allows the penis to be materially enlarged with little risk or negative side effects, then enlargement can be recommended in many cases. Social taboos related to sexual health and penis enlargement have been falling steadily. While they remain, many men suffer a poorer quality of life for no good reason, considering the less invasive options available.

Small penis syndrome

Sixty per cent of males believed to suffer from small penis syndrome face the feeling of not being "big enough" to satisfy their partners. The anxiety can be harmful to relationships and can affect self-esteem and the overall projection of confidence. There is a generation of men who worry about their penis size, perhaps exacerbated by the prevalence of online pornography or by increasing reference to penis size in the media. Many incorrectly believe nothing can be done and therefore work on other aspects of the body, including overdoing it at the gym and even taking steroids.

More dangerous is the consumption of ineffective supplements or penis enlargement pills, which falsely claim to grow the adult penis. Often little is known about the ingredients or manufacturing standards. Men may waste time on penis enlargement exercises or long periods wearing traction devices, which can be uncomfortable and damaging. A compulsive fixation on measuring and analyzing the penis can develop. After no real results are achieved and considerable time and money are wasted, anxiety is often higher than at the start.

It is becoming more common for men with statistically average or even larger than average penises to opt for girth enhancement, due to the relative ease of the procedure and the lower risk of modern dermal penis fillers.

Many men want a bigger penis not just for a better sex life but for pride in their physique overall. In bodybuilding, men add muscle and size in many areas, but there is no exercise for the penis. With filler techniques, men can keep the penis in proportion to the gains they have achieved on the rest of the body.

Self-defeat, low confidence and disregard of logical sense can consume a man over penis size. There is no need for this when enhancing girth is now a low-risk outpatient procedure, thanks to modern reversible dermal fillers.
