Yeah if he is correct I wouldn't want to shout that out myself but congrats on him for bringing awareness to an issue that I'm sure many men's lives have been worse for. Not like we can control the size of any body part but it would make for difficult relationships. Yes I know size isn't everything but that's a bit different category of issue is all.

[–] NKBTN@feddit.uk 14 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

I think the full phrase is "size isn't everything, its how you use it" but bro has nothing to use. As disabilities go, its one of the easier ones to have - able bodied and normal-looking with all five senses. It sucks that he misses out on sexual relationships, but so do loads of people with much worse conditions.

[–] IamtheMorgz@lemmy.world 27 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm not sure he misses out on sexual relationships at all though. Strap ons are a thing, and can be very effective (ask a lesbian, or a trans man!) and there are LOTS of ways to have sex that don't involve the traditional act people tend to reduce it down to.

Also, disabled people also have sex. The idea that they don't is ableist AF.

Unironic major example of how "[size] dick energy" is a really stupid, and inherently body-shaming, expression in the first place.

I read a blog post years ago by a trans dude about how seeing how little the winner of a smallest penis contest gave a shit helped him not give a shit about his own dick situation.

so, i guess it's nice for insecure people to see stuff like this?

I'm convinced body dysmorphia is linked to a lack of some public nudity at beaches etc where you can see fat, short, flabby etc all on display and realize you're kinda normal, our only interaction with nudity is the body types seen in porn.

[–] Anivia@feddit.org 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I live in an area of Germany where nudist beaches (FKK in Germany) are very popular, and it doesn't seem to help body dismorphia at all

You do occasionally see flaccid cocks in media and IRL, but only from guys confident enough to show it in the first place, which skews public perception a fair bit.

I went to school with a girl who'd only ever seen erections drawn. To her first boyfriend, she said "is that it?" the first time she saw a boner. It was a perfectly average cock, but she'd been expecting something the size of a cucumber

This dude was interviewed on British TV a while back. It was amazing how open about the whole thing he was.

He wanted to raise awareness because if he had sought medical help when he was young, the likelihood of medical intervention being successful is greatly increased.
He wants other people to go get help if they need it.

I fooled around with a guy who had a pretty small dick, that thing got hard as a rock, it was pretty cool.

Specifically he wants to raise awareness of the fact that he's got one, for the benefit of enthusiasts.

I hope he did anyway cause he's gonna get sought out.

I'm pretty sure most new born boys have a larger penis than that... I struggle to believe that his tool would really be THAT tiny.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

I looked it up, it's just short of a centimeter. There are women with a bigger clit than that.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

So of new borns often have a ~90mm flaccid penis at birth, and he is 1cm erect...

I wonder if he was born with an even smaller penis, or if his penis just literally never grew.

I'm about to sully my search history and look this up, but I would imagine there are hormone treatments you can get at a young age.

Edit: short answer. Yes it can help in some cases. Micropenis is often detected in infancy. And seemingly often caused by very low testosterone levels during development

In the US, due to a shitty health care system, men usually self-medicate at a later age with a giant pickup truck or a douche sports car.

"Chef, where can I find the clitoris?"

"Well, Stanley. In this man's pants is something resembling that"

[–] subignition@fedia.io 10 points 3 weeks ago (9 children)

He said he was recently in a satisfying relationship that really only ended because it was long distance. Yet, he confided, it still all “affects me as far as, like, confidence and wanting to approach new people, especially females”.

I don't think your micropenis is entirely to blame here, chief edit: so are we not concerned by calling women females anymore?

[–] qualia@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

I think this commenter is pointing out Mike's cringey use of "females" and is just imprecise with their communication. Or am I one of their alt accounts defending myself from this ratioing? You be the judge. (I'm not)

If engine size is inversely proportionate to penis length, what does that say about cyclists?

Talk about cocky.

2 words, cycling shorts.

They leave very little to the imagination...
