Why do people assume you have a small penis if you have a small flaccid penis size?

I'm like 3 inches when flaccid but it can grow up to 6.2 inches, which is a bit more than double (I can fit both my hands around it and it still sticks out a little). So it's not a small penis. I've noticed that both boys and girls assume that a small flaccid size equals small penis. I've read about how girls try to touch guys penises when flaccid to see if it's big and when they find out the flaccid size is small they reject the guy. Guys usually bash other guys in the lockers room for having small flaccid penises. I know a girl that for sure would laugh and humiliate me if she saw my penis flaccid, she would assume it would only grow like half an inch to an inch only. But if I would show her my penis fully erect, she would probably change her mind completely. So why does this happen?

  • Because they are uneducated...
    I myself am a "grower"... I'm one to two inches flaccid, depending on how cold it is, if its really cold I'm turdled up to the size of a newborn baby but when erect im 6" easy.
    I grew up paranoid that I had a tiny dick because I assumed other guys I saw in the locker room would expand and multiply in penis size when erect the same way I did... It wasn't until years later I discovered the differences between "growers and showers"... And as it turns out, more than likely I was a lot larger than many of those dudes I saw in the locker room, the only difference being that they were showers not growers.
    And girls... Some of them just don't know better so they make assumptions... That and most girls don't get to see boys in a flaccid state before they become erect... So when they see a flaccid penis, they assume that that's about the size that it's going to be when erect.

  • The truth is that its not so normal to see naked people and its even less normal to see the having an erection unless you are about to make love with them. So those rare times , people will mostly see a flaccid penis. Well , everybody knows the shower and grower thing , but we don't expect an one inch penis flacid to be 6 inches erected and we dont expect a 5 inches flaccid , of a man that just came out of the cold sea swimming to be less of 6 inches erected just the same. From my experience gith also is changing much less that length and besides all of this , women DO like men with flaccid penises walking around and they do like to see some meat down there...

  • If someone actually does that.. They are stupid... we all know it grows.. a lot..

    • Tbh I doubt most girls, at least teenagers and women in their twenties, knows this.

    • well then they did not take a human anatomy or ''common sense'' class in school.. lol..

    • It's embarrassing mine is 2 inches soft but grows to 8 inches hard I hate being naked though because of shit said in school in the locker room I'm ok now but peer pressure sucks.

  • They aren't educated about sex.

    • I know girls like that. Uneducated. They foolishly believe what they are told on the streets by “friends” that know less than they do. They have no direction in their sexual lives and I pity them. It isn’t their fault. They need a little love. A little compassion. They need a little Kramer.

  • Jesus had a too small penis.

  • I think its because of lack of knowledge, many guys and girls simply dont know that flaccid penile length doesn't correlate with erect penile length.

    What does correlate with erect penile length is a penis put on full stretch.

    You basically grab ahold of your penis and pull it as hard as you can like you’re trying to pull it off. The propensity of the penis to grow is directly proportional to how far you can pull it away from the body.

  • Because it's easier to assume something that might boost their ego and lover yours than it is to be knowledgeable about anatomy and how it actually works.

  • Because they know nothing about male's anatomy, that's why.

  • You'll just have to have a constant boner then. Viagra smoothies ad infinitum for you.

  • You are a grow-er not a show-er. And you can tell anyone who asks.

  • most of us are growers not showers -_-

  • They dont know the difference between growers and showers... growers are the ones who look small when flaccid but gain considerable size when erect like you... but showere are the one who look big even flaccid but dont gain considerable size when erect for example a shower might have a 4 inch flaccid penis but may be 5.5 inches when erect. Hope this helps

    • Hmmm

  • Some people aren't informed about a certain body part.
    I to am a grower not a shower, I'm confident with what I've got.
    Every guy's penis is different, no two are alike and some people just will never understand it. laugh at it and make fun of it all they want to, if they do just tell them they're not getting any dick because you made fun of it.

  • bro your flaccid size is fine. i have a flaccid size of 1.1 inch and everyone assumes i have a small erect penis too

    • your testicles look big there's a doctor in florida his name is dr loria he helps men have a bigger penis it cost about 7000 dollar but its worth it here is his website loriamedical. com also goto the doctor and check your testosterone levels too

  • Quick question to the growers as I am a grower myself, are you circumcised?
    You see I am not and I think the foreskin has something to do with it, not only that but I know for a scientific fact that I get more out of sex than an circumcised man does because I have more nerve endings in that foreskin than they do. It could also be the reason that I can have multiple orgasms like some women do, sometimes with no ejaculate.

  • Sounds like its all in your head.

  • who is assumming this? I would never judge you by your soft size. Mine can be as small as 2" at times but it gets to be 6.5" and 5" around when erect. Same with my balls, when its hot and humid they hand down like 5-6"

  • It's A Fact, Some Guys Are Showers (They Are Big While Soft), Some Guys Are Growers (They Grow Large When Hard)...
    Size Is Always Determined When Hard Not Soft.
    People Need To Stop Acting Superior Due To Size, Size Does Not Matter.
