Research done in Canada showed that it isn’t that men have significantly ‘more’ sexual partners. After all, the men have to be having sex with someone and if it is straight men we are talking about here, then we can reasonably assume that for each sexual conquest a man speaks of, there is some woman somewhere who also holds bragging rights. So, what accounts for the disparity in the numbers? According to the study, it is basically a function of guys having a lousy memory.  Researcher Norman Brown of the University of Alberta explains that

Two out of three women remembered each partner they had or they kept a running tally. They reported an average of 6.2 people. Men, however, were twice as likely not to remember; leaving their calculations to guesswork. They reported an average of 11.9 women.

While there are a few exceptions that skew the data a bit, this explanation is a lot more credible than the locker-room tales of nerdy guys with more chicks than Solomon had wives.

While most men would pay $10,000 for a larger penis, there are some (believe it or not) who have to pay the same only they are getting the size of their penis REDUCED. That is, after having a botched penis enlargement surgery. In any event, this sobering article sheds a little light on the subject and reminds us that nine times out of ten, we are probably fine just the way we are, penis-wise. — TCH

Being in the business of the penis enlargement industry, I have heard case after case of horrible situations involving penis augmentation surgery, or commonly known as penis enlargement surgery. All of these cases involve irreversible effects, leaving a man either without a penis at all, a penis that is non-functional, or in best cases a scarred, deformed penis that has lost only some of its functionality.

First I would like to address the misconception behind surgical penis enlargement. Being men, we tend to care for our penis quite a bit. We make sure it is clean, if we see some kind of new spot; we immediately become concerned, wondering if everything’s okay, in general we place great importance on it. So it is not very hard for someone to realize that being involved in a penis industry will have success. Today we see hundreds of different products, techniques, surgery, pumps, weights, and even hypnosis. Everything and anything that people can scam you out of your money.

Now being that we are society that trusts doctors with our deepest secrets, secrets that even our spouse may not know about, we look for doctors when we are faced with a problem that involves our physical body, even the most intimate parts of our body. We trust doctors beyond immeasurable scopes. We will spend from $3,000 to $10,000 so our wives can get bigger breasts. The doctor fills the breasts full of silicone and bam, problem solved. Now this is where our biggest misconception comes from, if women can have it done, why can’t men have it done? Why would we not be able to successfully increase the size of our penis with surgery? Doctors are magicians right? Wrong. We fail to remember a few things. Breasts do not necessarily have to serve any function, it is like plastic surgery, and it is done for looks only. The penis is an organ that is required to function on a daily basis however, quite often several times per day. If it was just about looks then it would not be such a big issue. However there are an extremely large number of cases with men whose penis increases in size by several inches, but the problem is that he can’t get it up. What is the purpose of that? Just to throw out a few more stats at you, on the average penis enlargement surgery costs around $5,000. More than 50% of these surgeries require additional “reconstructive” surgery generally costing for a total of over $10,000. Why would spend that kind of money? Some people save years for these kinds of operations, only to come out damaged for life.

Now what about alternatives? First I’d like to make sure that you even need an alternative. What is the reason for why you want a larger penis? Is it so you perform better in bed? Is it to be able to satisfy your sexual partner more? Is it so you don’t feel ashamed at the gym, or any other place where others can see your penis? If you said yes to any of these questions then you do not need penis enlargement. What you need is some confidence, maybe some more skills in bed, or in a worst scenario you just need something to help with the premature ejaculation. There are only a few reasons where I can see a larger penis a must; one includes trying to become a porn star.

Whatever your reason is however, there are natural, safe, and healthy ways of penis enlargement. Some of our recommended forms of penis enlargement are penis exercises such as jelqing and penis enlargement pills such as VigRX, Magna-RX+ and VP-RX, among others. There are many penis enlargement products, so please be sure to do your research before making your decision.

If you cannot afford plastic surgery or penis enlargement pills, here’s a penis enlargement technique you may not have thought of: penis shaving. That’s right, folks. This article explores how a shaved penis is a bigger (looking) penis. It’s all about optical illusions here as the penis does not actually grow, but then again, women employ optical illusions all of the time to make their breasts and butts look bigger, so why can’t guys do it to? One word of caution: shave at your own peril. — TCG

Shaving on and around the penis is being done by males not just for surgery anymore. Just take a look around the locker room the next time you’re at the gym.

Today’s males say shaving the pubic hairs on and around their penis is a way to feel fresh and look neat and clean. And cleanly shaving their shaft allows a condom to slip on and off much easier.

These are very good reasons to support shaving the penis indeed.

But - If a male is being totally honest, he’ll tell you that he is shaving his pubic hair because it gives his penis the appearance of being larger and it gets a lot more, ahem, attention when it’s cleanly shaved.

So for those of you males who are interested - Here are a few things you should know before shaving on and around your penis:

1. Never start shaving your penis unless you’re sober and fully alert. The pubic area is much more sensitive than your face, which means it’s much easier to hurt yourself, so you want your wits about you.
2. And while penis shaving is pretty easy to do, it does require patience and care.
3. If you’re shaving for the first time and have long pubic hairs, trim them with scissors or better yet, a hair trimmer.
4. Take a long, hot shower or bath. This will open the follicles, (the skin depressions from which hair emerges), and soften your naturally coarse pubic hairs to make shaving easier.
5. Pat dry your shaft and surrounding area with a soft, clean towel.
6. Apply a generous amount of a rich lubricant. Allow this to sit for at least 3 minutes before you begin shaving.
7. ALWAYS use a new blade in your razor.

Note: It’s rumored that if you start shaving your general pubic area, testicles, and inner thighs, you’ll get the best optical illusion, er, affect of a larger penis.

If you do decide to start shaving your general pubic area and inner thighs while you’re at it, make sure another new blade is easily available so you can change blades if your razor starts to drag.

Start by shaving the penis in the direction the hair grows, making sure you shave all sides. If it isn’t already erect, gently pull your penis upwards. This will make it easier to shave.

Once you’ve removed all hairs, go back and shave against the way the hair grows. This will give you the clean, close and smooth shave you’re after. But don’t shave the same area more than this second time or apply too much pressure. The last thing you want is a razor burn on your penis from shaving.

After shaving your penis, make sure to completely rinse off any traces of the lubricant with warm water. Then rinse with cold water. This will close and calm the follicles and generally tone the skin.

Pat, don’t rub, your penis dry with a clean, soft towel.

Some males apply a non stinging astringent after shaving. But to avoid any reaction, just lightly dust your penis with a talc free powder or plain cornstarch.

Ultimately, you want to prevent any kind of irritation to this newly raw skin. So focus on keeping it dry and doing what you can to limit initial friction. If you don’t already, wear some loose fitting boxer shorts for a while after shaving.

Many males go as long as possible between shaves in the belief that it will reduce skin irritation. But it’s been suggested that the incoming hair stubble is what causes skin problems, so shaving more often is actually better.

Males who are very physically active are usually shaving every other day.

While it’s a fact that eventually, after regular shaving, the hairs will become weaker and softer and your penis will remain smoother - If you’re not ready, able and willing to follow the regimen outlined here, you probably shouldn’t start shaving your penis.

Because anyone will tell you, there’s only one thing worse than a hairy penis - And that’s a stubbly, scabby penis.

A dry shaver is definitely the safest penis shaver. Do some research and discover the compact shaver that’s designed specifically for safely shaving the penis.

An event for men and women, this year celebrates the Masturbate-a-thon’s tenth year. What started out as a small-scale pledge drive has blossomed into an event that attracts people from around the world. The event was an instant success and continues to be popular. According to the Masturbate-a-thon website,

It started as a weekend long pledge drive that operated on the honor system. Participants got their pals to promise money for each minute of masturbation. As Carol Queen said then, “who’d want to cheat? It’s so much fun to masturbate, it’s not like you won’t do it and then say you did.” In the first year the Masturbate-a-thon raised $8,500 for good causes. In the years that the Masturbate-a-thon operated as a do-it-yourself event it raised over $25,000, distributed 66,000 pledge forms, had 1700 pledged participants from six different countries.

Does it all sound exciting? Think you want to fly up to San Fran and try your hand, metaphorically speaking? Well, if you plan to do any record-breaking, here’s what you’re up against

Time Records:

• Female: 6 h, 30 min (Norine Dworkin, San Francisco, 2004)
• Male: 8 h, 30 min (San Francisco, 2006)
• Trans/Genderqueer: Yet to be set!

Most Orgasms:

• Female: 49 (London, 2006)
• Male: 6 (London, 2006)
• Trans/Genderqueer: Yet to be set!

The good news is you don’t have to break any records. Just go to have fun, learn and love more about yourself, and support a super creative way to support a very good cause.

“[The women who are] really into it are comfortable in their own skin — those are the ones that I’ve found actually like the bigger penises.”

The author of the post differed saying

[The women who are not] really into it are NOT comfortable in their own skin — those are the ones that I’ve found actually like the bigger penises…

I guess it’s all relative but I think that the penis and boobs will always coveted in a general sense and will always serve as a superficial means of ‘sizing a person up’ (pun intended).

There are, of course, those who subscribe to the notion that size isn’t so important as much as skill which would make sense when you consider that with the physical differences in humans, ‘bigger’ could actually do a lot of harm depending on the person.

Perhaps the best rule of thumb is ‘do the best with what ya’ got’.

Genital warts may be small, flat, flesh-colored bumps or tiny, cauliflower-like bumps. In men, genital warts can grow on the penis, near the anus, or between the penis and the scrotum. In women, genital warts may grow on the vulva and perinea area, in the vagina and on the cervix. Genital warts vary in size and may even be so small that you can’t see them. They can lead to cancer of the cervix in women or cancer of the penis in men.
