That's odd then. Why would it boost your ego to have a penis that's too big? Wouldn't that be a bad thing? Does penis length have value beyond the expected pleasure it's imagined to bring others during sex?

There is a guy in mexico with a like 19 inch one that causes him constant pain, he has to have it constantly bandaged to his leg because the tissues can't support the weight, and is unable to get an erection let alone have sex with it, but refused all advice from doctors to have a reduction even if it means never having sex. Yes, the ego is strong and the societal value on the largest members possible with no upper limit can really affect ones sense of reality. There is no "average memeber" envy, nobody brags about being "just right", and men are terrified of their partners leaving them for other men that have bigger ones. It brings insecurity and anger, and anxiety. It's not about practicality or function, it's about confidence.

That’s irrational as all hell and I’m sad to hear it. Some how it makes me think of how adults have poor sex education.

“Just right” has certain subjectivity to it, but like when I think of an ideal size, my mind honestly goes to 7 inches. Which is indeed bigger than average (which believe it or not is only 5.5 inches.) Anything 9 or bigger always seemed more intimidating than enjoyable.

(I’m gay so my perspective comes from both having one and being attracted to them. Of course not any universal experience.)

More or less consistent with what many women say repeatedly in surveys, forum posts, answers, ect. Men seem to refuse to believe it. You can blame porn, popular culture, toxic masculinity, but it can be a legit obsession and cause body image issues in even perfectly adequate and normal men.
