Do women prefer larger penises?

Women prefer larger penis for one-night stands?
According to a 2015 study1Article Source: Women’s Preferences for Penis Size: A New Research Method Using Selection among 3D Models
Prause N, Park J, Leung S, Miller G (2015) Women’s Preferences for Penis Size: A New Research Method Using Selection among 3D Models. PLOS ONE 10(9): e0133079. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0133079
, women prefer larger penis for one-night experiences, but smaller is equally acceptable for long-term relationships. In this study, 75 women between the ages of 18 and 65 were asked to grade blue plastic donks according to their desired size.

The findings were as follows: for short-term (one-night stand) women chose 6.4 inch long penis, which is around 16 cm. The preferred thickness was roughly 5.0 inches (12.7cm). For long-term relationships, a 6.3-inch-long penis was acceptable.

Largest is not always most wanted?

While this kinda stuff might matter only on a nudist beach, some scientist has truly studied this. In this study made in 20133Mautz BS, Wong BB, Peters RA, Jennions MD. Penis size interacts with body shape and height to influence male attractiveness. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2013 Apr 23;110(17):6925-30. doi: 10.1073/pnas.1219361110. Epub 2013 Apr 8. PMID: 23569234; PMCID: PMC3637716., 105 heterosexual females were shown 3D models generated by MakeHuman software. Flaccid penis sizes of 3D avatar were modified to different sizes. Sizes that women most likely will see in real life (5–13 cm). Then women were shown videos of these models in private room and asked: “Please rate each figure based on how sexually attractive they are to you”

Once again very similar results here: flaccid penis size has a significant influence on male attractiveness. Males with bigger penis were perceived to be more attractive. Interesting was that the attractiveness begin to diminish after 7.6 cm was reached (flaccid penis). Learn more: how to become more attractive to women.

What sized dildos woman prefer?
20174Isaacson D, Aghili R, Wongwittavas N, Garcia M. How Big is Too Big? The Girth of Bestselling Insertive Sex Toys to Guide Maximal Neophallus Dimensions. J Sex Med. 2017 Nov;14(11):1455-1461. doi: 10.1016/j.jsxm.2017.09.012. PMID: 29110808. study published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine found similar preferred size from topselling dildos. In this study, researchers examined the top 5 bestselling dildos on top online adult retailers and Amazon.com. As it turn out, the average lenght of top-selling dildos is very similar to what previos studies have pointed out. In this case 6.7 inches (17 cm) and average girth 5.9 inches (15 cm).

Does size matter, really?

Size is not often the real issue…

Yes, size matters, but not like you think it matters. As we learned earlier, women preferred penis size is only around 6 inches, which is not far away from normal penis size. If you have anything close to 5 inches, then the size matters only in your own head.

Why are males so concerned about their penis size? It all comes down to incorrect assumptions. There are men that really have decent size penis and are worried that they have smaller penis than average man.

For example. 2021 analysis, discovered that most men assume the typical penis length is somewhere above six inches. While in reality, that information originates from self-reported studies. Obviously those are inconsistent with other measuring procedures.

“Based on these studies, the average length of an erect penis is between 5.1 and 5.5 inches (12.95-13.97 cm), but after taking volunteer bias into account, it is probably toward the lower end of this range.” 5King BM. Average-Size Erect Penis: Fiction, Fact, and the Need for Counseling. J Sex Marital Ther. 2021;47(1):80-89. doi: 10.1080/0092623X.2020.1787279. Epub 2020 Jul 15. PMID: 32666897.

This means, that most of the men who are concerned about their penis size have indeed normal-sized penises. In reality, these men have other and bigger problems to worry about than their penis size.

Of course, if you have a real micropenis (2-3 inches) then you have to compensate for it will other means. But even in that case, it’s not the end of the world. You can still have great sex and make women orgasm by other strategies (will write more about that in upcoming articles).

Average male penis size

The average man’s erect penis is 5.2 inches. If you have even something close to that you have nothing to worry. There is way more easier things to do for your sexual power than increasing your penis size. For example, just increasing your erection strength and lasting longer will give massive benefits also.

It’s also good to understand that, your penis size is varied. It can get slightly smaller or even larger according to your daily habits. Size increase is also possible. However, it will take months of training, even with new advanced tools like Bathmate which I have written here.

Most people’s biggest problem is not the size of their penis. The problem is lack of erection strenght and endurance. Lack of long-lasting penis hardness, and premature ejaculation that you think is a chronic condition but it really isn’t.

For your sex partners in your lifetime, these things matter way more than just the size of your tool.

Especially if you have a big one but are unable to keep it rock hard. And not having great endurance and stamina. This situation doesn’t give you any upper hand to a guy with regular penis size. Combined with great erection strength, hardness and endurance.

Premature ejaculation is also way bigger problem than your penis size. Especially when it comes to great sex and giving your partner orgasms via penetration.

We’ll address and tackle all these problems here. These are massive problems for most men, and there are real working solutions that help and help a lot.

What is the real problem?

First, you have to accept the facts. If you have a regular-sized penis which is around 5 inches. Then the size is not your issue. In your case size doesn’t matter. The real problem is somewhere else.

Unfortunately most men are brain washed via mainstream porn and porn-stars with massive penises. They think that size is their problem. When their real problem is weak erection, low endurance, and premature ejaculation. Especially when it comes to giving your partner an orgasm via penetration. Therefore most men should focus on improving their erection strength rather than their size.

This is extremely important especially when you get older, noticeable erection decline starting from your thirties. You’ll start to notice that there have been morning’s where you do not remember having a morning erection. This should be major alarm bell for you, to start tackling this problem before it’s too late.

You must – as a man – get erections regularly. You’ve to swell your penis muscle and get the blood flowing there, regularly.

If you fail to achieve this, the ability to get full potential erection diminishes each passing year.

If you don’t use your penis, it basically shrinks and your penis muscle and tendons don’t get filled up regularly. So it takes it as it doesn’t need that ability anymore. You learn more about this matter by reading: the penis shrinkage article

Most old men can confirm this. They don’t get as big and strong erections anymore. They’ve failed to be active with their erection and sex life.

In your day to day possibly stressful life there isn’t always time for anything sexual. Making it come a habit for weeks, months or even years. Suddenly you don’t even remember when was the last time you got an erection. And surely it wasn’t even a strong erection.

In simple terms you have to force yourself to get an erection regularly, preferably every day. This makes getting erection normal and having a strong bigger erection becomes a natural thing for you. If you don’t get an erection regularly, you’ll start lose that ability. With penis, you must use it or lose it.

Consistent sexual activity is the key

How can you get an erection regularly and easily?
You should have sex or masturbate regularly. You can also use penis enhancers like Bathmate to train your erection to stay hard. I’ve written about Bathmate as erection enhancer many times. There’s multiple of articles in this site and you can find detailed explanation, studies and experiences here: Bathmate frequently asked questions.

I currently own 2 different Bathmate penis pumps and they’ve served me well from 2016 to 2022. No need to renew them as they’re still 100% functioning like new ones (see pictures on the Bathmate FAQ). Incredible to think that Bathmate has cost me less than 20 bucks a year. Giving me consistant erection enhancement. Just for the same price that goes out of my pocket multiple times a week. For example when I go to a restaurant for a lunch.

Also, I own one regular air pump that’s been decent as a beginner. For more suction power Bathmate is the way to go. Although owning a regular pump is also great. You can use it anywhere and not just in the shower. Some people enjoy using it in their bed or while watching a TV. It’s a great add to your arsenal to own it along with a Bathmate.

Conclusion of the ‘Does Size Matter’ Debate

While you might be wondering that does size matter. Many women are complaining about big penises, and how they don’t get satisfaction with them. For most women, a standard size penis is the best. Especially when it’s combined with great erection strength, rock hardness, long endurance, and stamina.

Most men would have a long-lasting strong erection, great stamina & endurance, a lack of premature ejaculation, and a shorter refractory period (meaning you can climax again and again in the same session). 99% of women would also take these over just a big penis.

That tells you everything. These things matter the most. I’ve seen dozens of examples of a woman that finds himself a man that has these penis perks. Always that man sticks and imprints on that woman’s mind. A man that is a great lover. Not a man that just has a big pecker. Without the ability to be a great lover with a penis that has more to it than just the size.

Tools like Bathmate can make your penis larger with a consistent routine. While a temporary penis size boost is instant, a permanent size boost takes months of work. It’s not easy I tell you that, but it works. The hard part is consistency.

You should not necessarily long for a bigger penis as your main priority. You should long for better sexual health and penis enhancement via healthy habits and also nutrition strategies. I’ll write more about these in the coming posts.
