Average

Remember Michelangelo's carving of David. He isn't particularly big down there. Come to think of it neither are most of those ancient Greek masterpieces. I spent a while at a big nudist resort in France and had the opportunity to check out the sizes of the 100's of men. Guess what? half the men are no bigger than David (or me). So maybe those show-offs with big penises are not so common.

I could not agree more. I think the average length of an erection is 5 inches...when flacid that could be small (a grower) or 5 inches (a shower). I have come across many women in my life that really like very large penises...10,11,12 inches and the thicker the better..my wife is one of them.

I found a website which shows how correct you are. It says what is the size of the average penis. It is: https://www.bodyandsoul.com.au/sex+dating/sexual+health/is+your+penis+normalr,25351 (look for "Is your penis normal") It distinguishes between Showers and Growers as you do. It says Showers may hang large when flaccid but do not grow much when erect. In contrast Growers inflate like a balloon. So the vital statistic is only for the ERECT penis. The average length is 5 to 6 inches (13 to 15 cm) as you say. It has a circumference of 3 to 5 inches (8 to 13 cm).

I am 5.5 inches and slender and I feel really small compared to most I see on the various swinger sites.

LOL ... 5 1/2" here

There's a reason for this. Heroic sculpture depicts a warrior's body going into battle. David is on the cusp of his fight with Goliath. Male organs become small before aggression to reduce chance of injury. Both Greek and Renaissance heroes have small penises because big ones were seen as bestial and base or erotic and erotic elements in heroic sculpture would have been completely unacceptable to Greek ideals. That said those are normal men like we are today. And they were the ideal. Porn has shifted that ideal in less than 70 years. However it's not a realistic ideal at all. We do well to remember that and the fact that Greek ideals lasted 2000 years.

I am a grower but still only 3.5-4. inches and 1.5-2 around. Soft, there are times you cant tell it's there and hasnt grown since I was 12 and learned to jack off. I've had girlfriends tell me it was plenty for them but I could tell they wanted more. The good part of that is they were easily talked into swapping. I have been embarrassed of my lack of both length and girth that my singles profiles all state "total bottom, does not top". I have only had one woman climax with me on top, many have with them on top and I'm a pussy eating guru and will rim. I love sucking cock and surprise, surprise I love a BIG cock up my butt.
