is 7" really above average?

And I think the majority of women don't really know what measurements look like. I'm going even further and saying that the majority of men don't even know the true measurements of their own cocks. With the exception of this site and similar sites that has countless forums and articles on how to properly measure, the population of men that stumbled onto them is probably very low. And let's say they did measure correctly. It is very common for men to add inches to the stories they tell about their dicks when out in public.

The standard add is 2" so women hear this enough they believe it . Moreover you can not talk sense about penis size outside the gym. If you say you have 8" well they will think back to the last guy that told them he had 8" and visualise his 6" dick .

I still hate this, because I refuse to lie. Also being at 8" now puts me at the exact size guys lie about. Still same as always though, best to not get into numbers until she has seen it and experienced things in person.

Yep and avoiding numbers can be an issue.

I was watching several PE videos on youtube, one guy was trying to demonstrate something and the progress he made per day. He had a ruler in one hand (pressed hard to the side and below the penis - shame on him for cheating!) and the other hand tugging hard on on his gripped glans. I can imagine other guys measuring in that manner and declaring new discovered length. The guy on this video was using the magic 8" as his reference length.
The point though is that I know for a fact most men do not know how to measure their length properly and will use what gives them the highest number.
I registered on Measurection (site for the smaller) and LPSG (site for the larger), it seems that a lot members on both sites don't know how to measure though it is stated in their FAQs. The guys on the smaller site reduce their actual length while guys on the larger site enhance their actual length. The two common visual methods I see for enhancing size are the base squeeze and the pressed side measure or pressed side comparison. Another site is Thevisualizer where you will see the commonly used pressed side measure in their reference photos.

My experience agrees with this. I'm 7" BPEL, and a lot of women guess 8". The few who have ever guessed correctly are nurses because they see dicks all the time.

Agree with you.

There are all sorts of tricks to make ones penis look bigger and I feel that 7” is definitely on the big size. Ever since I stopped watching porn I feel that I’ve seen my penis in a new light and before what I thought was a normal size I now see as big. I feel like 7-7.5” is huge and anything over that may be too much for some women or restrict certain positions. I’m at 7.3” and I’ve had women say I’m big, but I think men want a porn reaction where the woman over reacts and says it’s the biggest thing they’ve ever seen. Realistically that wont happen often or they are too shy to declare your unit a monster.
Plus having a big cock and low EQ or bad technique will be worse than a average dick that’s rock hard and knows what to do. Just focus on making your woman feel good than any extra size will help out after.

Something I noticed for myself, one particular porn I first watched some years ago; the penises looked huge in the video. Some years after and doing PE, I watched the video again and the penises don't seem so huge anymore.

I trust the studies that the average is ~5.5-6.0, and I do think there's a little wiggle room for fat pad and EQ, so the range might extend over 6.0. That still means 7" is above average. I just don't see any way around that.

I also agree with those who have said variations of "Stop obsessing over your dick size, because most women don't care that much, and by the time they're seeing you're dick you've already done most of the work. Concentrate on being a better lover, and if PE gets you some gains, good on you!"

I had similar experiences when I first hit puberty and discovered masturbation (prior to seeing any porn), I thought my penis was pretty big. I never seen any other penis so I didn't compare it to anything else. Then when I seen porn, my mind shifted. When I started having sex, I had a couple girls whose reactions didn't make me feel that big. But others said that I had a "kind of" big dick. With my current size at 6-1/8" length, 5-1/2" girth, I know the length is within average and the girth is above average. One reaction I got in particular with this current size was the woman rubbed my bulge and asked me if it was really my dick. Then when I told her to check it out, she took it out and immediately took notice to how thick it was. We were at her house laying in bed and we ended up having sex after that but I didn't have condoms on me so we used some that she had from her past relationship so they were for her ex boyfriend's size. I struggled to get them on due to the girth and she told me that I needed magnums because my dick was too big. When I told her my dick was average, she insisted "no...that's not normal. These condoms are for average dicks." To her experience, I was above average. In my perspective, I am average. Perspective means everything.

In my perspective, I am average. Perspective means everything.

That's correct. But the perspective is super easily skewered through Porn and emotions.

How many guys do you think would be on this page if porn didn't exist on this planet?

I'm pretty sure it would only be a fraction of men who mainly have trouble with eq, and people who have a way below average dick and are unable to feel anything or only a little during Sex.

And emotions skewers the perspective of size because when a girl is in love, she will more likely complement the unit and when she is heart broken and/or upset, she is more likely to either be indifferent about it or say negative things.
It's all mainly based on her emotional state.

That's also the reason why I think that it's BS to do PE for any other reason than to increase our own pleasure during Sex, as well as our confidence.

If she benefits from it, great. But it's just a bonus, not a necessity.
