grower vs shower theory?

[wiseman Member Find all posts View Profile Close wiseman]

I had a theory after reading some threads around "tunica growth" and "pulling out the inner penis growth"...


Is it possible that a grower means that he hasn't pulled out the inner penis enough (so it doesn't hang either), and a shower means he has pulled out enough of the inner penis, so the most penis is hanging...


Hope this makes sense...

Yeah, I follow the thought.

It's a trait that's present before PE though. But by that logic it could be a factor in changing from one to the other.

I also think originally it's from multiple reasons. The suspensory ligament, and also make up of the chambers that fill with blood are also likely contributors to which is which.

From my understanding, it's an evolutionary response to climate and protection. The shower trait passed down from those in warmer climates, especially where physical protection was less necessary. And those in colder climates, the body recognized a need to keep it closer to the warm body, and out of harms way.

Of course, today, with clothing and less physical danger to a hanging penis (hopefully ), evolution may turn us all to showers in time.

I think part of it is how much actual penile tissue there is, and also how 'relaxed' it is. Point being, we all know the penis can stretch, both from manual means and from getting an erection. I think this is why, over time, lots of do PE become at least partially showers, since the penis tries to retract less and less, plus more penile tissue get added as well. I know in my case, I've added about 0.7" of BPEL since starting, but I've also added 1" flaccid length as well (give or take another 0.25" since flaccid is hard to measure). I also notice I turtle a LOT less than when I first started.

Actually that does raise an interesting thought -- Has anyone on here gone from around average (BPEL 5-6" lets say) to somewhere in the 7-8" BPEL range and still has a similar flaccid to their stating size?

OK, gents. At the risk of sounding completely silly, can you explain what we mean when we say "growers" and "showers"? I've seen the terms quite often here, but truth be told, I still don't what it refers to...argh. I've searched the site, but I can't seem to find the answer, and this is first time I've seen the topic as a forum thread.

Many thanks from newbie-land

Well I can answer both of the last two questions.
A grower has a very short flaccid penis but average or above erect length. A shower has a flaccid length that is similar to the erect penis length.
I went from BPEL 4.9" to BPEL 7.75" and my flaccid is almost always still less than 3" BPEL. I am a grower. Evidently I always will be. If it is really warm my flaccid will hang close to 4" if I pull on it first.

Well now that make a lot of sense, wishful. Thank you, sir.

But I have another question: Ahem...How in sam hill did you add almost 3" to you BPEL? That alone is worth the price of admission.

I pull, tug, jelq, stretch, pump, hang, rolling pin, clamp, massage a lot. I try to keep my Herbie guessing about what's coming next.
Safe, consistent, persistent, and patient PE.

For the correct one word answer: NO.

What determines it is blood flow. I am a shower now but if I get cold enough I can still have button dick.

Never heard that one a ''button dick'' that was a funny one.

For those of us in the north, button dick is not funny.

Interesting...I guess that disproves my theory. I know in my case my flaccid has grown more than my erect. I'm actually hoping that trend continues, as I always said I've love my post PE flaccid to be the same size or bigger than my pre PE erect. Granted I'm already finding at 5" it gets hard to hide if you want to.

I live in North too but I make sure to dress up warm so I would avoid the infamous and deadly ''button dick'' by all costs.

Well damn. So no matter how much my BPEL gets, I'll always be a grower? There are more nurses out there that are in for a good laugh! LOL
