13.24 inches, for average length, would be quite something, wouldn't it?


The world's longest penis is 13.5 inches and having it sucks:

quote:

ORIGINAL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonah_Falcon
His penis size also presents certain problems and limitations on the sex acts in which he can participate. Fellatio performed on him, for example, is painful for him, because the width of his penis makes it unable for sex partners to fellate him without their teeth coming into contact with his penis. He is unable to insert more than nine inches of his penis inside a woman's vagina. It takes between fifteen and thirty minutes for Falcon to obtain a full erection, though he is capable of performing with a less than fully erect penis without a woman realizing much of a difference. Because he learned in his youth that sex was painful for his female partners, he came to rely less on his penis when making love, and learned to kiss, lick, rub and masturbate his partner, sometimes for hours, before penetrating his partners, and then massaging the interior of the vagina and using angles during penetration.

Remember the double penis guy? Dayum! is all I can say. I wonder why he never did porn. Just saying, side saddle looks like quite a ride!

There is absolutely no cause to show the penises of an animal in relation to the cocks of men. Everyone please hold off on posting so I can clean this mess up.

Sorry about that if it offended. It was just a drawing. And it wasn't obscene in any sense of the word. But, if you had to remove it, then I apologize for having to make you do that work. It did show that, while cocks do certainly vary by species, they're a cylinder on humans, and no amount of explanation is going to change that, curved, stubby, long, short, or not. A cylinder is a cylinder, which is why all the prophylactics are cylinders too (which was the other picture, showing, despite the fact that they come in frills and ribs and dangles, that prophylactics are all cylinders too - well - tubes, to be a bit more definitive).

All we're doing is matching one cylinder to a tube.

For those coming late, there were pictures showing that condoms are all cylindrical, no matter what shape penis they're supposed to cover.
And that (human) cocks are cylindrical also.
There were also charts which showed cock sizes of all men (from a study of 15,000) from the largest to the smallest, and none came close to a coke can in girth by the way; and there were mathematical explanations of how large human cocks grow as compared to the stretchiness of the prophylactic.

I don't feel like reproducing the math and diagrams and research (that post took about an hour to compile correctly), which countered all the responses prior to it, WITH DATA, which is important in a situation like this.

I also covered some of the MARKETING details, as condoms are marketed and not sold properly, in my humble opinion, and I discussed some of the reasons why incorrect sizing could be a huge factor in condom accidents which apparently, are common.

It's too daunting to re-research (as all the details must be correct), so I'll just give up on the task.

You didn't need one picture to share that. Amazing isn't it?

Now that you have spoken your piece about your post, a removed post and a moderator action, lets move on please.

So, a coke-can-penis length is about average; but the girth is well off the chart!

Apologies that you took the reference literally. As I said initially, it was something that I could not get my fingers around, which made it "out of bounds" in terms of size for me.

Referring to him as "Coke Can Guy" in conversations like this is a hell of a lot easier than saying "the guy with the penis so thick that I thought it was going to tear me in two". Again, I do apologize for any misunderstanding my words might have caused.

A bunch of snips in the quotes FYI.
Crumpets, you're literally here. If you took an hour to do research for one single post, it's bordering on obsession, IMHO. There's no points awarded for "winning" an imaginary contest on a message board populated by strangers. You don't seem to get that you're rehashing things that have already been discussed. Bejeezus man, know when to cry uncle. Please!!

This is a fast reply.

That this thread has made it to 7 pages either means we are stir crazy from Winter or that there is nothing better to discuss. I doubt that it is the latter.

You don't seem to get that you're rehashing things that have already been discussed.


When I saw your boringly useless beating-the-dead horse post, you may notice that I ignored it, because, as always with Collarspace forum posts, many people have very closed minds, that can't get any further than around their own block. Any new ideas all look like old ideas to them. Their old ideas, mind you. They can't wrap themselves around a new idea if it hit them in the face.

An example is almost *any* findomme thread, for example. They always devolve into prostitution-versus-not-prostitution discussions. Why? Because people have small minds that can't wrap themselves around larger ideas. I could start almost any findomme thread saying almost anything, e.g., "My mom is a findomme" or "Where can I find a book about findomme" (or whatever), and the thread would STILL almost certainly soon (if not sooner) devolve into a prostitution-discussion thread. Why? Because people can't think any other way. People can't think past their noses sometimes. It's just the way many people are. Especially the ones who try to make jokes about the threads being old hat; it's because THEY can't see that it's not old hat. All they see is one hat. They can't possibly comprehend any other hat.

The only people turning the thread into the beating of a dead horse are those people!

If you don't understand what I'm saying, consider ANY thread that involves femdomme porn in any way, shape, or form, that has any dominant females on it. It will ALWAYS (and I mean ALWAYS) devolve into a thread on how (they think) femdomme porn is unrealistic. Why? Because they have an opinion, and God help anyone who tries to ask anything that skirts any topic where they have an opinion - because - by God - they will TELL you that femdomme porn is unrealistic. In fact, they will actually not even LOOK at the femdomme porn (because, in their minds, they've seen it all, which is funny, when you think about it). The point is that I could ask anything, and if it has femdomme porn in it, they can't see anything else. They'd post, like you did, an inane picture of someone beating a dead horse. The only dead horse is their brain, but they have NO IDEA that is the case. I could ask something like, "My mom wants to make femdomme porn - what should I advise her", and the thread would STILL devolve into an issue of whether femdomme porn is realistic.

You see, it's the people who can't think further than that one issue, who make all the jokes and who are actually making all threads pretty much about WHAT THEY see (like the schoolboys giggling in the back of the room when they see the sexed videos in the gym).

Every thread here, that skirts a common topic, is like a meeting of 4th grade schoolboys in a sex-ed class. Despite the topic, all they hear are the potty words, and that's all they can talk about for a week. Small minds that haven't grown up yet can't wrap themselves around bigger ideas.

Your post is reminiscent of that as are many here. Some actually could get out of their own self-imposed gutter, but all many here could do is fall back to their STANDARD (and boriing as hell) penis-size jokes and comments. I could name names, but, you can just tell the intelligence of the person by the way they responded. Those who couldn't get past the whole penis-size thing, and those who actually understood the topic (which has nothing, per se, to do with penis size out of relationship to condom size).

Let's state outright what YOU are thinking, shall we? (This is based on the idiotic jokes, most of which I declined to respond to, but I'm doing it now, since this thread has run its course long ago - perhaps at the fourth or fifth post).

1. Guy asks question that has ANYTHING (doesn't matter what) to do with PENIS SIZE (in this case, it's condom size, by the way).
2. The little boys and girls in the back of the gym titter and giggle as all they can think of is the BRAGGING issue.
3. It make no difference if women don't even CARE about penis size (until way later); they still can't think of anything else.

So, if it's beating a dead horse, as you so often intimated, it's because YOUR MIND can't perceive of ANYTHING else once the word PENIS and SIZE are mentioned in ANY THREAD ON THE PLANET. It's how YOU think; not me.

Same thing with the idiotically predictable fifth-grade school-boy jokes, but, I've said my piece.

Okay crumpets....here's another concept.

Consider the issue that all the companies that make condoms use a limited amount of templates in the process to make condoms to be sold to the public. We all can agree that regarding the male appendage, cocks are not all equal in size, length or girth. Thus how feasible and profitable would it be for these companies to completely overhaul their machinery with all the necessary molds to manufacture condoms that will ensure a snug fit for every cock size?

Companies who manufacture condoms do produce a limited amount of size ranges that is geared to the majority of the common cock lengths and girths and at the same time it maximizes the profits for the company. I agree that for part of the male population, they fall outside of the perceived statistical norm, thus some males find it very difficult to find a condom that fits properly, it won't tear during sex, won't be too tight and distracting from sexual intercourse or have a condom that it too loose and will slip off and defeat the purpose of wearing a condom in the first place.

One option to solve this is for each and every condom manufacturer would be to print out a more in depth fact sheet that will list all variations to cock size and add it to the packaging much in the same manner that cold meds have a fact sheet inside the packaging when you but a box of over the counter cold meds as an example. Chances are, if this was to become an industry practice, then chances are the price for a box of condoms will increase as these same companies will be incurring extra costs which they will pass onto us consumers.

Obviously this topic has you asking many questions which us of the general populace can only speculate and offer our opinions on so maybe it would be logical for you to also write the condom manufacturers directly and ask the same questions you have done here? This way you just might get the answers you apparently aren't getting here that meets your expectations sufficiently enough.

All that to tell me I'm being childish & idiotic? Believe me, I think, yes, MY opinion, you're hung up on this. I've made very few posts on this thread, I've literally been sitting on my hands to keep from blowing up. Others have argued until they're blue in the face, yet you choose to flounce at me. YOUR decision. Don't care really.
As for findomme threads & such, I know to avoid posting on them because they do devolve. I may follow them for the entertainment value, but I won't post.
If you don't like what I have to say, there's a convenient hide button. Make use of it.

And so it's clear. He really just wants a rant, and no answers, because hey, well, he's already formed his own answers inside his head.

Simple enough.

I now know that when crumpets asks a question, actually replying with data is useless, unless it matches the data he agrees with.

Can we go anywhere good from condoms, cock sizes, 'only' drawings of animal cocks, to findom and personal opinions of other users posts?

I think I may need to consider a feisty vent section for those users that really want to vent or stir things up, so that other users can actually answer. Then no one gets into trouble. Well, most likely anyway.

Maybe we should stick with the original topic before this turns into Feisty Fodder. Hum, I may have just come up with a section name.
