Penis size???

[Halfnhalf]

Ok, so this is a common question for men but I really need some answers from you women.
I have a 5 inch penis which I hear is about average...but I really don’t get that impression in my experience. I’ve never opened up to anybody around me as to why I am so insecure with women as it’s too embarrassing and I’m too proud.
Im 6 foot 3, athletic/muscular, naturally tanned and I’ve always been told that women find me very attractive. My friends and people around me just can’t figure out why I don’t feel I could be with someone that I think in theory would be a good match. I’m outgoing, generally confident and like to be enjoy myself without being an idiot. I think I a nice guy and was a professional sports person for a few years. I’m not sure if sports people are generally bigger but most guys in the showers had pretty impressive members.
I always shy away from women I’m attracted to because I’m convinced they will be disappointed with my penis. It’s completely dominated my love life. I’ve honestly decided that it’s better for me to take the attention without going further and facing embarrassment!
I never let any of my partners see me flaccid or touch me unless I’m erect. I completely avoid girls I know have been with bigger guys just because I don’t want to feel inferior and don’t feel I would match up.
Be honest girls....how important is it? I’m not looking for an ego boost as I don’t think it will change my feelings or confidence that way, but it would be good to get your opinions first hand. Be honest! :-)
Would you be disappointed if a guy you fancied didn’t measure up? How important is it?

Your inferiority complex is your problem and not your penis size.

As a woman, penis size doesn't really matter to me but how you use it. This is the same for most women, women don't really care about your penis size like you think they do.

There are guys who have big penis but are weak during sex. Whereas there a guys with average or small penis but have strong erections, and are able to utilize their tool effectively.

For me, a hard erection that last long is better than a big penis that's weak. So, you should be concerned about lasting long during sex, not about your penis size.

It's easy to get swept up in worrying about what women may or may not prefer in terms of penis size. But the reality of it is that women are interested in much more than just the size of a man's penis. Girth, appearance and health all play into how women evaluate their mate. Here's what every man needs to know about how women view their penis.

What Actually is The Ideal Size?

It's important to note here that size isn't the most important component of the penis, according to many women. On the other hand, a University of California and University of New Mexico study from 2015 found that the preferred penis size for women was 6.3 inches for regular partners and 6.4 inches for one-night encounters. For some women, this matters quite a bit: 61 percent of women in a recent study claimed they had rejected an intimate advance because of a small penis.

But, at least for American women, that may be actually be expecting a little too much. In the United States, the average penis size was five inches, more than a full inch below the preferred length. Even the global average is just 5.5 inches. If you're less than five inches, though, not to worry; there are plenty of other things that women care about when it comes to a man's penis. Here are a few of those things:

- Overall Appearance. Not surprisingly, women are just as interested in the "complete package" than length. A healthy-looking, clean penis outranked a larger, less healthy-looking member in a recent study conducted by the University of Zurich. In fact, in said study, overall appearance was the most important factor in accessing an attractive penis.

- Hair Down There. In the same Swiss study, the second-most important factor for women was the presence of hair. Women were much more interested in a tastefully groomed nether-region than something completely untamed or excessively trimmed. Luckily, no matter their penis size, this is an easy factor for men to control. Regular washing with a mild soap and trimming the hair in the area will ensure that any woman will be happy with what she finds.

- Girth. Many women find girth to be a much more important factor in a man's penis than length. A recent study conducted by the SPAN lab in California found that women more often opted for girth rather than length when identifying an ideal penis. Women's preference for this likely stems from their own anatomy, which benefits more from a wider penis than a longer one when it comes to intimate situations. Some surveys have shown that women prefer a penis circumference to be about five inches.

- Healthy Skin. The penis skin is also an important factor for women. A chafed penis is unsightly to women, as are any red rashes, sore or bumps. Be sure to stay ahead of any skin abnormalities on the penis. If one is present, contact a medical professional or apply a home regimen of care to reduce symptoms.
