Why do women tend to overestimate penis size?

Most women have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to penis size. They measure in "girl inches" instead of real inches. Women often are inaccurate with their guesstimate. I don't think they know just how big an actual 8 inch penis is. I've heard women claim that 9 or 10 inches is the "perfect size" or talk about how they've hooked up with guys who were "at least 12 inches long" and so many women claim their boyfriends are 8+ inches.

Why do women tend to overestimate penis size?


Formula for converting girl inches to regular inches.

N × 0.8 , where N is the penis length in girl inches.

With this formula:

7 girl inches = 5.6 regular inches.

8 girl inches = 6.4 regular inches.

9 girl inches = 7.2 regular inches.

10 girl inches = 8 regular inches.

  • Because guys lie about their size all the time, most of the women dont actually care about the size when it comes to sex. But when it comes to the ones who brag, they probably just want to make others jealous or make their boyfriend feel better. My ex said he was 7 inches, and although I didn't really care what size he was i couldn't help but to notice he was very off with his measurements. He was most definitely around 4.5 inches.

    • 🤣 how do you mess that up that bad tho lol

  • I've read somewhere that women tend to look favorably on a good sexual experience and will remember the member as being larger than it actually was. Women don't care about inches, just that it makes them feel nice. As long as the guy could preform, the woman is likely to recall the size as being larger than it was.

    • Yea that's true

  • They know what size it is, like in real inches. But if their boyfriend is 5 inches, and they likely talk to their friends about the sex, they’re gonna want to sell it at 6, or 7. Simply for their sakes.

  • who really has ever measured? It is either big or small!!

    • Or medium

    • The only way to know if it’s big or small is to measure since big or small is relative to statistical abersge

  • Simple, women enjoy bragging rights about a big one with their gfs more than men do. Their handling of a big penis speaks subconsciously to their fertility instincts and believe it or not their self worth. This damn dick size thing goes both ways.

    And one more thing did you ever see a woman try to park a big ass suv in a motorcycle parking space? I did, their spacial perception in general is terrible.

  • That's because the guys they get with tell them they're 3 inches bigger than they actually are.

    • But why do they believe them. Don't they know what an inch is?
