What's good girth?

OK ladies, I keep hearing women say that it isn't the length as much as a guy's girth that matters. However, what's considered good girth? Like a the size of a quarter, size of a toilet paper tube, just big enough to get your hand around, etc?

  • The toilet paper test is a favorite of mine, especially if I find that a guy has exaggerated his size. If he easily fits in the tube when he is hard, he has a skinny penis. If it doesn't fit, he is extra thick. If it just fits in, he is average.

    If it fits loosely, I like to check his length with it too. If the head doesn't poke out of the tube, he has a tiny penis as well as a skinny one. Like I said, I only do this to guys that tell me they are hung and then I find out later they were lying to me. Remember boys, honesty is the best policy in these matters. Most girls don't need you to be a porn star. If you have a lil' one, just spend more time on us before you do the deed. ;>

    • I think the only people who put 3 thumbs down are the ones that don't fit. I on the other hand don't fit width wise, and I know my head would be stickin out.

    • So foreplay is more important if you have a smaller penis?

    • i member being able to fit my penis in the the toilet paper tube about the age 14 15. now I can only get part of my head in there.

  • I didn't think girth mattered so much until my current boyfriend - he's much bigger around than any other I've been with... (i haven't measured but he's like a can of red bull)... it's def more challenging, and I'm often sore, but I have multiple orgasms all the time from him just being inside me... but if you don't have that girth, I don't think it matters - just figure out which strokes/thrusts/stirring juices your girl...

    • I wonder how big around is a red bull

  • From experience I can tell they prefer thicker penises. Like you said, girth seems to be more important to them than length. Mine is not that long, is not short either, just average, but it's quite thick and most the girls I've been with have complemented me on the girth. I'm not sure what their IDEAL girth is in terms of inches but one girl once told me something like not less than the space that is formed with the tip of the index finger and the thumb touching each other.

  • The way that Girth is to be measured is by taking something like a string, Rap it around the thickest part of the penis and mark off where the two ends meet. now let the string hang strait and measure the length of the string and that is the girth of the penis.

  • I'm glad you are asking about girth and not length. So many guys are so concerned with how long it is. I would say if she can make an "o" with her thumb and index finger and be barley touching them while you are hard that's about right.

    • That's pretty damn thick. I'm just glad I last long enough to make sure she orgasms b4 I do. That is more important than length and girth and shape and the angle of the boner.

  • I don't know what girth people would like...but I do know that my bf is 2 inches around...

    Maybe inch around, because sometimes he can hurt...

    • I'm assuming by 2 inches around you mean diameter? A circumference (or girth) of 2 inches would be small, given the average is a 5 inch circumference.

    • He took a measuring tape and wrapped it around the neck...

    • Do you wish he was a bit smaller or is the pain worth it?

  • Hmm, somewhere around 5 inches, I'd say. I don't want him to be so thick that I can't even give him a proper bj.

  • You totally secluded 4 - 4 1/2 inches as an option. Just acknowledging that.

  • sorry but what is girth?

    • Exactly.;) women don't fixate on these things as much as guys do. your size is what it is, so make the most of it. I bet a lot of women here can tell you stories about having HORRIBLE sex with wonderfully sized guys.

    • Its the diameter.

    • No its actually circumference
