  • Psychology of PE

    I've been thinking about this for a while, I'm a psychology student so I guess it's just how I think. But concerning PE, I'm interested in the Psychology behind it. Many people start with above average stats, and many continue past their goals. A common one is 8x6, but when reached many continue with PE. Not just in maintenance but in wanting to gain. Now with PE there are certain reasons to continue, to cememnt gains, for a healthy penis and so on.

    One thread here got me thinking, in the thread the question was asked would you take one inch of gains immediately if it meant you could never gain any more. An interesting question. For me if I added an inch to length and girth I'd be over my long term gains, yet don't know what my answer would be to that question. Many people have a unit that could pleasure any woman better than she's ever had, yet they continue. Why is that?

    It comes to mind that maybe our perception is skewed. Some eating disorders are caused my misinterpretation of information by the brain, they see themselves as fat even when they are unhealthily skinny, even when they can measure their body fat or waist size and see objective numbers prooving they are skinny. Yet they still see themselves as skinny. Is the same for us with our penises? Due to the small increments gains come in, without having photographs to compare starting and end sizes, it's often hard to see gains by looking without a ruler. Yet even when we get gains we still consider ourselves small. Like the other day I looked down and thought surely i'm bigger than that, i've recently measured my first gains of =0.35" length and some girth as well, and with the ruler I proved to myself that it was indeed my normal, increased size. why then do I still think that it's not big enough. Some members start with stats that are past the long term goals of other members, I saw one guy recently who was starting PE with over 8" length. What is it that drives us to want a bigger penis?

    Theres a few approaches that say a few different things. Evolutionary scientists would talk about how a bigger penis gives a greater chance of passing on our genes since a bigger penis means less distance sperm need to travel to fertilise an egg.
    A behaviourist approach might say that we do PE, we see gains, we feel better about ourselves, and we then are conditioned to continue doing PE because it makes us feel good about ourselves. This would suggest PE isn't about pleasing a woman per se, it's more about feeling good about ourselves.
    Cognitive approaches would include the perception ideas talked about above, and could also include reasoning with ourselves- say you reach 8x6, well, you think to yourself 'thats me at 100% EQ, i'm not always going to be at 100% so i'll probably be a bit smaller than that normally, I should keep going so i'm consistently at 8" even when not at full EQ' or things like that.
    It might even be that we are a little disbelieving at first, and as humans we're often driven towards the unknown and things we're unsure of, we don't know if this whole thing will really work for us, if it'll be noticible. We're provoked to try it out, we see others maintaining the routine and think we should do so too.
    It could be the investment idea- we know it takes time to gain so we don't mind PE for a while, then even if we come up to our main goals, we think about how much time and effort, in some cases money, we have put into PE, and feel that that level of investment that we have put in deserves more PE than we orginally thought; we started, we may as well go the distance.
    And of course there could be the social aspect of it; theres a lot of outsider pressure to be the perfect person, to have the right clothes a good body, and in our case a large penis. Being brought up in a culture filled with provocative media I can say personally that there is definately pressure to have a big penis even though its widely accepted that its how you use it that counts, a lot more than size. This could also be tied to the nature of this site- most people on this site are gaining, which makes our ideas of average size to go up. The collective membership of this site probably has a considerably larger average size than the rest of the population seeing as everyone on here is gaining and gaining, this might provoke us into thinking we are small in size. Again I can say this from experience, I've passed the 7" length mark which compared to my original ideas and average sizes is pretty decent, yet I see a lot of people on here much bigger and I feel like I should get bigger too.

    So a thought came to my head in relation to the question before 'would you gain an inch in a day if you could never gain after that?', a slightly different question, 'would you keep gaining even if you were at a size that maximzed pleasure for a sexual parnter?'

    These are just some of my thoughts, I realise this is more of a sililoquy, an inner discussion with myself, I just find putting my thoughts online helps me think rationally and in a structured way, if anyone else has any thoughts on the psychology of this then your perspectives would be very welcome
    I'm back!

    Note how frequently men have goals that are just a bit above their current stats. Sure, plenty want near unlimited growth to any max number, but a lot of guys just want to be a little better off than they started. You know, just one half inch more - just one more standard deviation above norm. It is interesting.

    I think some of the size perception issues come from the angle of viewing. Just looking down at is a poor angle to gauge size. That's why plenty of guys are surprised when they compare to objects like toilet paper rolls to see what their size is.

    But yes, there is certainly an evolutionary element of being more alpha in doing this, and this does bring on positive feelings. But since gains come so slowly for most, and we see our penises every day, gains can be hard to detect.

      True, honestly i'm perfectly happy with my length, if I could add a bit girth, maybe half an inch, I would be delighted and might consider calling it a day

      But then again, men always want more so I would probably continue anyway

        Well when I look down I see 5" (partially due to my fat pad) and its hard to believe its true when I do measure. When I see someone elses it looks bigger. And when mine isnt 100% its not above 8" so I do want a 85-90% erection above 8" as well! lol

          >Many people have a unit that could pleasure any woman better than she's ever had, yet they continue. Why is that?<

          Pleasuring my wife is top priority, (job uno) however having a larger penis for my own enjoyment is a very high priority as well.

          Once I realized I can make it larger, I aways have had the curiosity about how large could it be.

          It is also about penis health. At my age many men have ED. My peak EQ (when I am not fatigued from PE) is better now than in my 20's and 30's.


          >I saw one guy recently who was starting PE with over 8" length. What is it that drives us to want a bigger penis?<

          Again, curiosity of what that would feel like. Given that my wife responds to even the slightest increase in size, I would like to continue to get larger.

          >would you keep gaining even if you were at a size that maximzed pleasure for a sexual parnter?<
          Yes, I will go until she says it hurts or I run out of motivation or time.

          I think that there is a component that is not accounted for and that is... her added responses help assure me that she is sexually fulfilled. My goal has always been to be the greatest lover to her.

          She is wired to enjoy a dominant male. Her favorite position is very submissive on her part and she likes me to tell her that she cannot get away if she tried. Simply erotic fantacy on both our parts because she could easily get away, she is not petite.

          We have a great relationship outside the bedroom. We rarely argue and if we do have a difference and feelings get hurt we recognize who needs to apologize and the make-up starts quickly. This has made our bedroom life even more intimate because we don't have to carry hurtful baggage with us.

              Any guy who says it's 100% about himself needs to think about how he would feel if his partner left because she was not sexually fulfilled.

              I can understand guys who are say 60/40 me/partner. I don't think we can draw the same line at all instances.

                      would you gain an inch in a day if you could never gain after that?

                      My answer would have to be no for me, because I have and ultimate goal to fulfill.

                      If I never get there, it doesn't really matter that much, as long as I can say I damn sure tried my best.

                      But If I get to my regular goal and can't gain any more after that I would say that I would be happy.

                      would you keep gaining even if you were at a size that maximized pleasure for a sexual partner?

                      No, I would stop.

                      If my partner said it was perfect at that size then I would stop, because she knows I do PE.

                      So, I would have to respect the fact that I want to please her and not hurt her.

                      After all, it's called love making, not butchering the cow.



                      As far as the psychology aspect of it.


                      I would say that men have always been competitive and this is just one more thing that they can compete with one another in.

                      I mean, I would think that some people really would like to have the largest penis in the world. How would you feel if you had it?

                      And as far as guys starting PE with 8" or more, I think they look at porn and think that they have to compare themselves to these guys and think they have to be as big or bigger to be excepted in this society in this day and age.

                      I think the biggest reason that guys start PE is because they have had a bad experience with a girl or girls that have told them they were small.

                      This can really hurt a guys ego.


                      After all who wants to be called small in the bed room. It makes us feel inadequate.

                      What we want to hear our woman say...

                      "Oh my God you got a nice fucking cock. Your fullness inside me feels amazing."

                      And if we have been away from her for a while on business or what ever, we want to hear her say...

                      "Oh baby, I can't wait to feel your big fucking cock deep inside me, get your ass home please."

                      When you hear your girl say things like this to you, and she wants it all the time.

                      You can pretty much assure yourself that she doesn't cheat on you, and does not take any interest in any other men.

                      Because, you are everything she needs, given the fact, that you also have the other parts of the relationship going good as well.

                        Yeah I see where you're coming from with the worlds largest penis thing, I read somewhere about a guy who wanted to have people ask him if he's had surgery to make it bigger haha.
                        And so you'd relate to the social influences from the media and from peers (or girlfriends hehe), which I tend to do. I think the porn industry has done more damage than many people know- Its setting up these insecurities for men, setting silly ideas on sex and what a body should look like, along with the damage it can do in the whole errection side of things- just look at the members on this site going on anti-porn stints and such.

                        I totally agree with the seeming common views on stopping if you had the perfect size for your particular partner, I was just interested, especially if the scenario was say her ideal size is 7", and you're on a role with the gains, they're coming steady, and you have all of these influences saying bigger is better, but you have this objective knowledge that your current size is perfect. As well as being able to comment in line with how the relationship is, it can also give ideas into the ego and internal motivation for wanting gains, which is what i'm interested in
