Average is actually a bit under 6, from the reading I've done. There's more than a little inflation and rounding up.

Yeah, I think it is 5.5 or something like that.

[gingerdaddyG]

6.5 uncut. Would like another inch, but who wouldn’t?!?! 🤣

[Pup4poz]

Mine is 7" but who cares I'm just another bottom craving loads and as far as whats average again who cares it all about does the top know how to use it...

I've enjoyed small dicks just as much as the bigger it all how you use it 

 

BTW - that doesn't mean I don't wanna take a 12" definitely want that

I'm just under 6, a little - thick shaft, nice full cockhead, cut.

As a follow-up, here's a handy article about the subject: [think before following links] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32666897/

And here's a nice chart (from this article: [think before following links] https://www.realclearscience.com/journal_club/2015/03/03/is_your_penis_normal_theres_a_chart_for_that_109106.html ) which tells us that over 99% of penises are 7 inches or smaller:

Not buying these poll results at all. Read the paper @viking8x6 posted above - the average length of a human penis is between 5.1 and 5.5 inches, and factoring volunteer bias, likely in the lower end of the range. Max average, five and a half inches. By the graph charted, a guy with 5.5 inches is in around the 67% percentile.

Yet in this poll, 67% of all respondents claim to be in the 6-7 inch range, and a whopping 53% of all respondents claim to be 7 inches or greater - given that 7 inches is approximately in the 99th percentile, that means over half of the guys who replied claim to have a cock bigger than 99% of all other guys out there.

Total Bullshit.

Either men don’t know how to measure a cock correctly for length, or they need to ask themselves why they feel it’s so important to lie about the size of their organ on the internet.

Plus, this particular poll was flawed to begin with because the low end of its range is in fact the average, and it didn’t even offer categories for men with measurements below the average yet offered a category for those in the 10,000th percentile range of 13+. The result has no chance of reflecting any real-world data set… unless you’re using it as a metric to determine how likely men are to exaggerate their cock size by an inch or more.

The poll is inherently flawed.  Since I'm barely over 6.5", I placed myself at 7 .  The options should have been in ranges (5-5.9"; 6-6.9", etc.).

Plus, remember, LOTS of members are in fantasy world.

I agree, most of them are measuring in "internet inches", and admit I rounded up a quarter of an inch myself since it wasn't given as ranges. It's easier here than at big dick night contest at the bar or bathhouse.

Fully Erect my cock is almost 9 inch. When it’s soft it’s not that big at all. It does grow really big if anyone wants to see pics just message me.

You know, we kinda-sorta expect guys to get creative about their cock size here, and on an individual basis it just seems like a thing guys do. But when you see more than half of them do it all at once in the same topic, it suddenly becomes obvious that we’re being ridiculous about it. Numbers like that don’t illustrate a trend, they suggest that we tacitly support a culture no different than the one that makes women feel insecure about their appearance and leads to eating disorders and body dysmorphic disorder.

The global market for “enhancements” ran to $300 million US in 2020, and is forecast to more than double that by 2027 - that means the men of the world will be pissing away nearly two-thirds of a billion dollars just because they’re insecure that their cocks aren’t long enough. Stop the madness. Something has to be done to correct the inflated view of cock size that  is pornography’s legacy. Something like a counter narrative containing fact-based reality.

Frankly, I think the posters above who have submitted photos to document their claims are on the right track. I think that no claim without visual validation - that is, cock with ruler in place for scale - should be accepted as a bona fide claim of dick size on this site. As they say, pics or it didn’t happen.

I propose we take a stand here, on BZ, against sizeism, by establishing a clearinghouse of sorts where men can establish the credibility of their claims by posting a photograph of their cock with an adjacent ruler positioned in the correct way, as proof-of-claim. As a body of such verified samples gathers, a true picture of the community will emerge, and our members will be able to take more confidence in themselves and their own measure related to other normal men.

There has to be a common standard and method for measurement or the data is meaningless. Some men apparently figure their cock begins halfway down their taint and measure it from the underside. This is incorrect. For most studies, the accepted method is to measure the penis stretched, as opposed to erect, as the cock cannot elongate farther than it can stretch, and erection is essentially the process of the penis stretching under the pressure of infused blood. Measuring stretched as opposed ti erect also eliminates reductions in linear length due to bending. The correct procedure to measure a cock, therefore, is as follows:

Hold the phallus at a 90 degree angle from the body, and stretched to its fullest natural extent from its base to the end of the glans (i.e., without force or discomfort) not including the foreskin. A ruler is then placed > on top of the phallus at its base where it meets the pubic bone. The phallus is then measured in a direct line to the end of the glans. The phallus may also be tumescent or erect for the measurement, as neither state would increase the maximum possible length, but an erect penis might cause a reduction in the measurement if it introduced some bend that prevented a straight-line measurement.

I’ll put my money where my mouth is and start the thing, and be the first post. Look for a Topic titled “Cock Size Clearinghouse”. I’m going to go make it now.

And "internet years" for the age group question, I'll wager.  

[NWUSHorny]

Well to be fair my age group has changed since this poll was initiated.

[backdoorjimmy]

When you can’t pick an option because the smallest length is way more than you have 😐

[hntnhole]

Well, I'll try it that way .... I might be forgiven for thinking it had to be hard when measured?

I've posted this a few times, but once again I'm going to recommend that people look at calcsd.info ([think before following links] https://calcsd.info) which has the majority of the credible worldwide penis size data sets and citations of the related studies. There's also a standardized measuring technique articulated on the site as well. 

Using the default average dataset on the site above, a penis at 5.4899" in length is in the 50.01 percentile. This means that in a room of 1000 men, as many men are larger as they are smaller. I'm 6.5" BP erect length (bone-pressed, meaning measured against the pubic bone) and this puts me in the 93.39 percentile, meaning that in a room of 1000 men there are just 66 who are longer than me. I always thought I was just average, but when I stumbled across this site it was a big reality check for me.

As for the poll above, it doesn't articulate a standardized measurement method, the measurements are self-reported, the scale lacks the needed granularity, and the group of men here are a convenience sample that likely does not represent any population of men as a whole (not even this site).

The results certainly don't pass the sniff test. In a group of 1,000,000 (1m) men, only 12,203 men have a penis larger than 7", only 92 men are larger than 8", and zero men are larger than 9". The get any men larger than 9" you need to move to a population of 100,000,000 (100m). 

If we use 75,097 men as the base, the number of members on this site, here are the numbers that would be expected to be reported:

• 5" - 57,616 - 76.7% of members
• 6" - 16,783 - 22.3% of members
• 7" - 916 - 1.2% of members
• 8" - 7 - .009% of members
• 9" - 0
• 10" - 0
• 11" - 0
• 12" - 0
• 13+" - 0

There might be an argument made that since the people on this site are the most focused on breeding that there might be an upward skew in penis size, but it doesn't seem very likely to have had this much effect. YMMV.
