Why do girls still judge a guy on the size of his soft penis?

Almost every girl I know has the misconception that the size of a phallic penis is a measure of how big it is hard. This is a massive misconception women have and you see it being referred to and made fun of all the time. The soft penis can vary depending on temperature of the body and environment around it. Sometimes my penis can be the size of my thumb, other times it hangs down past my balls 6" or more. The only definite measure of a male penis is when it is 100% hard. It doesn't get bigger than that. The size of the phallic is not comparable to the erect penis. A 6" phallic penis may get hard and only grow 1/2 inch A 1" cold penis can go from 1" to 7.5 inches. (I know this) Is this something you girls are aware of?

  • The phallic penis? So the penis-shaped penis? Sounds redundant. There is no misconception. The only size that matters is that of an erect penis. Yes, if you are tiny flaccid (probably the real word you were looking for), she'll probably laugh at it. But most women know that most guys get much bigger when hard.

    • You failed to read the update... "Updates: *Flaccid (Phallic was a simple misnomer.)"

    • Doesn't matter, you still had a horrible "misnomer" in your question. The entire question is just... wrong. Women don't judge you by your FLACCID size unless it's all they'll ever see.

  • They really question is How is one defined? Is there a magic number? Is it like, if you get <50% bigger your a shower and if you grow more than 50% larger your a grower?

  • What makes you think that I've even seen a penis in a flaccid state ;) haha seriously though, women don't analyse penises nearly as much as men do. The subject flaccid penis size has never come up when I've spoken to my friends (and we do talk about sex a lot)

    And yep, most girls are aware of that!

    • So if you walked in on a hot guy changing and his penis was almost nonexistent because it was cold, you wouldn't mention to your friends that you saw "whoevers" penis and laugh about it's lack there of? I think all women would.

    • umm no that's a very mean thing to do and "all women" aren't mean. And why does the guy need to be "hot" in your example? Believe it or not, but I have better things to do in my life than to evaluate guys penises.

    • I made him hot because you are more likely to look and remember. A gross fat man would just make you turn away and forget the whole idea.

  • I don't judge a guy on his size at all... To me it isn't important. And i (as well as most other girls) am aware that the penis can be bigger or smaller based on circumstance. And im sure we all have heard of "growers" vs "showers"

    • Yeah but every man is both a shower and a grower depending on the moment.

    • To the asker: Every guy isn't a grower AND shower. Sure they all grow larger but the terms mean something specific. Grower=quite small but gets to at least average when erect. Shower=large when not erect and only grows a little when erect. You are equivocating on the use of the terms.

    • I am saying that as far as I can tell, we are all capable of having tiny soft penis' and long soft penis' depending on the current temp and therefore if we are in a cold small form, we would be growers because we go from tiny to our erect size. When we are in a longer warmer state and we get hard we would be showers because it wouldn't get much bigger, it would just get harder. So I think I am pretty spot on with my comment.

  • It's something I'm aware of. I think most people have heard of "grow-ers vs show-ers."

    • Yeah but every man is both a shower and a grower depending on the moment.

    • Cold makes it smaller yea yea I think people know that. I don't know why this is a concern for you though. I don't think most girls see flaccid penises because by the time the girl sees it you're probably turned on enough that it's not flaccid.

    • I don't know, I see shaming references to a soft male penis all the time on tv or in real life and it is annoying that it seems people assume the soft penis is a gauge of the hard penis. Every time mine is in a hidden turtle state I think to myself "Fuck, I hope I don't get caught with my pants down."... If I was ever to be in a situation like that I would hope it was in it's long and hangy state or in it's erect state, where I can be proud of it.

  • What difference does it make as long as the judging is consistent?

  • Ya'll-- Just make sure that your guy is using an antibacterial penis health creme daily. You can easily pick up some of his bacteria if the area is not hygienic which can lead to odors and/or infections. A creme like this will keep things clean.. they are very easy to use too. Hope this helps.

  • Phallic means an erect penis. So your question is confusing.

    • It was a simple misnomer which didn't seem to cause anyone else issue understanding the question. (Flaccid was the intended word)

  • pretty sure most girls are aware of the grower and shower.

  • I dont do that

  • It's like you boys jugde about boobs in clothes which are probably pushed-up.
    It's am... just funny to guess what could be the result.
