¿Importa el tamaño del pene? Los mitos y la verdad sobre E

In the gay environment there is an obsession with the size of the penis, which does not differ much from that which persists among heterosexuals. What's the size of your penis? is a question we frequently hear, just like: And how was it?

This is because in our culture the size of the penis, being the organ that distinguishes the man from women, is related to the level of masculinity and sexual potency of the male. However, no study has demonstrated this link.

Is it true that the bigger, the better? What is the average size of the penis? Do you think yours is very small? What does science and psychology say?

There are many myths about the size of the penis, and among the gay population sometimes it's believed that the size determines the sexual preference of the partner, i.e., if it's active or passive. The positions in sex are not determined by the size of the penis.According to About.com's Sexuality Guide, these are the average measurements:

The average length of a flaccid penis oscillates between 3.4 and 3.7 inches (8.6 cm to 9.3 cm).

The average length of an erect penis oscillates between 5.1 and 5.7 inches (12.9 cm to 14.5 cm) [Measurements are taken from where the penis reaches the body, not from the skin].

The average circumference of a penis during an erection is 3.5 inches to 3.9 inches (8.8 cm to 10 cm).

Does it sound very small, really? That's because we're used to exaggerated measurements in chat rooms or bars, and many people take their measurements from the skin or use temporary penis-enlarging devices. The advertising industry also bombards us with inflated figures to assault our insecurities. That's why there are so many gay men who undergo various surgical procedures, including penis lengthening surgery.

The pornography illusionThe dissatisfaction of many men with the size of their penis has been increased indirectly by the pornography industry, which tends to use models specifically chosen because they are well-endowed, but in reality, they constitute a small minority.

Additionally, much of what is seen on screen is not what is seen in real life, as there are various lighting and camera angle techniques used to make the penis appear larger. The actors also shave their pubic hair, which also contributes.

Penises come in different sizes, shapes, and dimensions. These characteristics are genetic, just like eye color or height, and there's nothing that can be done naturally to change them. Of course, there will always be people who wish they were taller or shorter, vice versa.

It's important to note that the variation in penis size is more extensive when it's flaccid than during erection. Sometimes relatively small flaccid penises grow significantly when erect, while men with large flaccid penises experience less growth during erection. Since most penises we observe are flaccid, we judge based on that. Therefore, men with a small flaccid penis may become self-conscious.

It has been scientifically proven that in the gay world there is a correlation between penis size and male auto-esteem. Men with larger penises tend to have greater confidence in themselves during sexual relations, while those with smaller ones are more prone to insecurity. That's why it's always recommended to accept oneself.

So, does size matter?As the saying goes, to each their own colors. There are gay men who love another man with a very large penis and others who prefer men with medium-sized penises. There are also those who feel attracted to small penises. For some, size matters, while for others it doesn't. When it comes to sexual preferences, there's no black or white. Each person should search for what they like, but as in everything, it's not good to obsess over it. Yes, however, there's no doubt that the male genital is attractive and delicious.
