Does your dick look smaller than it actually is?

You're "problem" (yeah right) is that you are so thick that it makes you appear short. Be happy for that god given girth and keep up the length work because you've already had tremendous results!

Well.
My problem is what's in my mind,and isn't so for many men,also on this site?

But that has changed a lot since I've started to read in this site,and found sites like mr average.

I'm also a grower,and someone who was bullied allot when I was a teenager with those "great" comments on my so called "short and stumpy penis".

My results are great,that's true.

Before I was on this site and mr average I actually thought that 6-7 inches in girth was normal.

I personally think that this site not only help you to change a body part like the penis,it also gives a lot of men some reality check about their size.

100% agreee with everything you said. I have self perception issues with my girth like you do length. This site has definitely put things into perspective but the issues haven't completely gone away.

I have a turkey neck though so I dont have that longer underside view. Thats the problem. You say look at it from under for a womans perspective, my woman wouldnt get that perspective from the turkey neck Thats why I think it looks smaller.

I have a pretty bad turkey neck also. The amount of ball skin I have is truly amazing. From the underside it looks like my dick starts about half way up.

Exactly, me too. So that plays into why I feel like a woman would think i'm small. Basically, im 6.25 NBP on my normal erection. My paranoid fear is that because of that, if a woman was with a 6.25 NBP, then was with me, she would think i am alot smaller than the other one even though we are the same size. Thats where all my size anxiety stems from.

Maybe if she just looked from the bottom for a few seconds she might. If she grabs it in her hand and more it won't matter. Don't stress about turkey neck. My wife didn't even notice mine until I showed her and that was after 16 years. You're fine.

Does your wife recognize your length as being in as high of a percentile as it is despite the turkey neck? 7 NBP is virtually non existant in the study world.

[Hopeful&dedicated Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Hopeful&dedicated]

She thinks I'm long but I never hear the word big or anything remotely close to that word. The turkey neck is a non issue.

[helpmeout Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close helpmeout]

Long is an understatement. at 7 NBP + your longer than almost all guys in the real world. "Statistically"

[Hopeful&dedicated Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Hopeful&dedicated]

Don't know what to tell you man. I'm 7.25 NBP and rock hard but without the girth she wouldn't call it big. Every woman has their own idea.

Woman dont notice the turkey neck as far as I have noticed. Never ever had one say a damn thing about it.

[helpmeout Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close helpmeout]

I dont think that would actually notice it "literally", as in saying "what is that flap of skin doing on the underside of your penis." However, my worry is that they just think its a smaller dick because of it. In their heads they're not saying "that turkey neck sure makes his dick look smaller" they'd just think it was less than the size it was because of lack of an underside view. I dunno. I could just be paranoid.

I don't know why, mine looks BIGGER in the mirror. Then I look down and it seems "normal" :-(

same here, but look on the bright side. The way you see it in the mirror is how everyone else in the world will see it.

I think this really needs to be talked about more. I have this problem to the point where its ruining my life. I have an almost 6.5 NBP penis, and I always get yelled at on here by people who say "You're well above average stop complaining". It's not about that. Literally I cannot believe at all ever that I have an average penis. If I see a video of a guy jerking off his 6 inch dick or something, it literally looks nothing like it. Everything on ameteur porn looks bigger, yet supposedly at 7+ BPEL i'm supposed to be in the 90th percentile. It just makes no sense. And i'm literally driving myself crazy with it. I'm not insecure about my stats, i'm insecure that it will look much smaller than my stats. My girlfriend tells me i'm a good amount above average, I can't believe her because I don't see it, and I honestly consider if she's lying or not, even though I know I "statistically" am. This is some kind of hell living like this. It really is.

I know where you're coming from.

I once saw a sex education program when they first filmed guys from over their head,and then form under their crotch(to show it from a woman's perspective),what a big difference it was..

Would love to see this.

@Thread
There's alot of factors as to why your penis might look smaller than it actually is no matter what angle from you look at it.

1. You have a large frame, especially wide hips and big thighs.
2. You've got girth and big balls.

However you can make your penis look huge if you've got a small frame, less girth and small balls or balls that hang lower.

Here is a good example of how girth can mess with your perception, same length different girth:

Im starting to understand now why my 6.3" NBPEL looks so small compared to 7" NBPEL pornstars with average girth.

If you're judging your size by looking down at it, you'll likely miscalculate due to the foreshortening effect:
