Hi All,I'm wondering whether the measurements given on this website are bone pressed or non bone pressed.Also, why do the graphs indicate a larger average penis size than the "by age" table?

Measurement on this website
-
I measure mine bone-pressed. I'm sure everyone does also as it makes the measurement larger
-
I'm not sure about the measurements on this website, but most guys do not measure bone-pressed, most guys measure along the side (which is incorrect).
-
ha, yeah that is true. And I imagine a good bunch enhance there size (when talking or entering information) to make themselves feel bigger.
-
the hell is bone pressed and non bone pressed?
-
Pressing the ruler through the fat to your pubic bone is "bone pressed". Putting the ruler up to the skin without pressing in is "non-bone pressed".
-
Aha... in that case, I'm proud to announce that I'm 1/8th of an inch larger than previously represented. What a relief. I was really starting to doubt my manhood.

LOL!

You see all sorts of different figures from different surveys (done with varying reliability) and different techniques. I wouldn't trust any survey that involves self-selection (people volunteering) or people stating their size instead of being measured - that cuts out nearly all the surveys. The table by age on this site (http://www.afraidtoask.com/members/mgentable.html) comes from a survey done 60 years ago by an army doctor on boys who were in hospital for other reasons (and who probably didn't get much choice). You probably couldn't do something like that today, and it is probably the only size-by-age survey that is any good, even though people probably mature earlier now. (The last figure on the table, for >25, comes from somewhere else and I'd disregard it.) The measurements there are non-bonepressed.Some people prefer non-bonepressed (I do), some prefer bonepressed (used by many here), and some use various strange methods, all giving sizes that seem a lot bigger.

Reminds me of something my drill seargent said in basic about 10 yrs ago. He holds his fingers about 2 inches apart and he hollers at this guy, "and you probably tell your girlfriend this is 8 inches!"
