Starting Out With Curiousity
First I got wondering about how I actually measure up, you know? Heard so many stupid locker room stories and online nonsense that I decided to finally test things properly myself. Grabbed a ruler and soft measuring tape from my toolbox, nothing fancy.

The Messy Measuring Part
Stood in my bathroom around noon – figured it’s when blood flow’s normal, right? For length: pressed the ruler hard into my pubic bone, straight out. Kinda tricky holding ruler steady while checking numbers! Then girth: wrapped the tape around the thickest middle part. Repeated whole process three days straight to be sure. Got minor variations each time – posture matters more than I thought.
- Day 1: 5.7″ length, 4.8″ girth – felt skeptical
- Day 2: 5.9″ when standing straighter
- Day 3: Consistent 5.8″ length finally
Biggest surprise? How temperature changed things. Did it after cold shower once – numbers dropped nearly half inch!
Comparing To Those Average Claims
Dug up medical studies online later. Real research shows normal erect range is like 5.1-5.7 inches worldwide. My 5.8″s barely above average! Felt weirdly disappointed for minute – porn really screws perception. Then read girth matters more for pleasure anyway, and my 4.9″ sits exactly in normal 4.7-5.1″ zone.
What I Actually Learned
Turns out the internet lies constantly about size. Most dudes fall within inch of average. My measurements proved I’m bog-standard normal. Wasted years worrying about nothing! Important part was measuring correctly – pushing to the bone, checking multiple times. Wanna try? Use hard ruler, not phone screens! And ignore those shady enlargement ads. Bodies work fine as they are.
