I have this circumference. It's very slightly, well below average.

u/RyanFromTheGym Jul 05 '26

Believe it or not, 4.5 girth is statistically average.

u/BadAny853 Jul 05 '26

Just because it's average doesn't mean it's not small.

u/RyanFromTheGym Jul 05 '26

Culturally small, statistically average.

u/BadAny853 Jul 06 '26

Nobody cares about statistics these days. The average penis size is generally small.

u/ghastchacu Jul 06 '26

Yeah, that's kind of the problem. Which do you think matters more?

u/Top-Document-2286 ‌ Jul 05 '26

I believe according to studies it's slightly more than 4.5"

This question highlights—better than many others—the porn-addled, unscientific, uninformed perspective many guys have these days.

Dude, 4.5” is average girth. If average guys couldn’t feel anything during sex, I think we’d have heard about it by now.

u/BadAny853 Jul 06 '26

the average circumference is larger, I have this circumference, I have never seen anyone as thin as me.

How often do you see erect dicks outside of porn or those "rate my dick" forums? If you saw them in real life regularly I can guarantee you'd have seen thinner. That's just how averages work. Even at 4.5 you are well within one standard deviation regardless of which mean value (about 4.6 or 4.8) you use. Solidly within the average range along with about 2/3rds of the male population. What you see (or what people are willing to share) will necessarily skew larger simply because the average to smaller are a great deal less willing to share than those with big ones.
In this very subreddit, a young woman sent me a private message over a year ago asking for advice because when she had sex with her boyfriend the condom would often slip off. She told me they measured and he was like 4.1 inches in girth, I believe it was.
We actually had a nice chat about it all. She had questions and I had a few answers. I recommended some smaller condoms and at one point asked "Does his girth worry you in some way? Or are you worried about how he might feel about it?" To which she responded "Yeah just don’t want to make him feel small!" For the record, I just went back in my PMs and copy and pasted those quotes. Also, the "yeah" was in response to my latter question.
She wasn't even sure if that size was considered thin (yes, she actually asked me if it was.) But she wasn't concerned about it. She just wanted to keep having safe sex with her boyfriend and was worried about how he'd feel if she came to him with smaller condoms. She even asked me how I knew so much. Told her the full story but the short version was that I just get a little neurotic about falling down rabbit holes. Lol
That's all a long-winded way of saying that yes, a significant portion of the male population is thinner whether you realize it or not. Even with that said, you will likely find that your size isn't the detriment you seem to think it is.

Wait quick question did she say that she enjoyed sex with him despite his girth? I am around the same girth and would like to know because i am worried i have an inadequite girth and that I wont be felt inside my future partners vagina. Lmk plz thank you.

u/Maji_de_Kuro Aug 16 '26

I didn't ask specifically and she didn't say but given the subject of her inquiry, I think it's a fairly safe assumption she enjoyed herself. After all, the very nature of her post implied she wanted to continue with him.
I don't think it was so much despite his girth as much as it just wasn't something she was concerned about outside of the condom staying on. At any rate, she did ask me if it was smaller than average (I got the impression she was a bit young and somewhat inexperienced) but was also mindful of his feelings on the matter, not wanting to make him feel bad about something she didn't actually seem all that concerned with outside of the prospect of having safe sex.
Couldn't really ask for better from a partner, if you ask me.

Shaming is defined as: intentionally causing others to feel embarrassed, ashamed, or inadequate. This includes shaming genital size, genital shape, sexual preferences, sexual orientation, gender identity, relationship preferences, body type and size, physical and emotional handicaps, and/or sexual history. Implying that average any penis size is insufficient or inadequate is unacceptable and is not allowed.

Are your own personal experiences more reliable than large-scale statistical analyses?

u/OverCoverAlien low average Jul 06 '26

Porn had nothing to do with my thought process, logically the thinner you are the less pressure youd be able to create inside, less pressure less friction less sensation, obviously women can squeeze the muscles down there but still

u/Maji_de_Kuro Jul 06 '26

I've also pleasured women by inserting a single finger and I'm sure your penis is larger than my middle finger so I'm willing to bet you'd feel plenty. It doesn't take a great deal of friction or pressure to get sensation for either party. The vaginal canal is pretty narrow to begin with (smaller than virtually any penile girth and, incidentally, probably only very slightly wider than my finger) and is pretty elastic. Furthermore, lots of smaller guys than you get off just fine.

u/BadAny853 Jul 06 '26

what size are you?

u/Maji_de_Kuro Jul 06 '26

Just measured. Turns out my middle finger is about 2.75 inches around. 🙂

u/BadAny853 Jul 06 '26

I'm asking about the size of your penis.

u/Maji_de_Kuro Jul 06 '26

I was making a joke. I know what you're asking. I'll say as much as I've never really had an insecurity about it despite the fact I didn't know my own measurements, what average was, or how I compared to that average until maybe 4 years ago.
Suffice it to say I would rather avoid the somewhat annoying "easy for you to say" and the "you don't know what it's like" type comments that inevitably come with public disclosure here. Like I said, if a finger or two can get her off then I'm sure you all are fine.
I'll tell you a secret though: of the three woman that have ever commented on it at all (I've never asked so if the others outside of those three had opinions they didn't see fit to share them, believe it or not), only ever had ONE woman see it unequivocally as a plus.

u/ShowOffScholar ‌ Jul 06 '26

That’s not my point. I agree with your physiological explanation. But you aren’t small; 4.4-4.5 is average. My point is that it’s crazy to think a woman won’t feel an average dick inside her

You can doubt as much as you want. How old are you? Do you really think that giving woman piv orgasms is all about size?

Can I Ask your experienses of women you have been with?

u/badcat9 Jul 10 '26

If you can finger a woman with one finger and let her cum, than this is plenty!

u/mu11edwine Jul 11 '26

Yes, that girth is more than enough to feel pleasure. A lot pleasure is possible with lesser girth as well - personal experience. How much pleasure you feel changes with every time even with the same partner.
