The origins of a small penis

[DJ66]

I was just wondering if anyone knew why people have small penis's/large ones. Is there a genetic reason, is it inherited or something to do with the growth and pubity? Like if you have kids will they inherit this? Sorry its not exactly about enlargement but just of interest.

Half of it is from genes and half has to do with puberty, half of it depends how you grew up, for example if you played a lot of sports while growing up your testosterone levels will be higher than if you had a brother that grew up doing nothing; playing video games all day. Testosterone has a lot to do with penis size and sex drive

[BigTymer]

How can you raise your testosterone levels? Or make it to where you produce more testosterone?

[bULL]

I'm sure it is a lot of things, but the idea that if you were an active kid you will grow up to have a big penis.... where do you get that from? I suppose that means all pro athletes must just be packin, which is I can say without personally looking myself, is not the case.

[VITAL]

hmm...i was really active in sports growing up..football, basketball, wrestling, weightlifting.....penis is not big

i'd say mostly hereditary

[BigTymer]

This one is very hard to go by because I played sports since 9, and in the beginning of my puberty years, girls would tell me I was bigger than most. But I began to smoke at like 15 (weed) then started cigarettes at 17 and also quit sports. Since I started smoking my dick was the same as age 13-14 and I didnt really grow taller either. Now that I quit smoking and started to play sports again, without PE my dick seems to have grown a little (girth/small amount on length). Don't know if it is from me quitting smoking, or playing sports again.

It has absolutely nothing to do with playing sports. It's heredity. No question that athletes would have higher levels of male testosterone. Kind of goes hand in hand with the muscles and such needed for success at sports, but that doesn't guarantee that you will be well hung, doesn't hurt, but there is more than testosterone causing the effect. Like the others in this post I was a pretty serious jock in my youth, and it didn't make me all that big. On the other hand who really cares. You are what you are and by following PE in a consistent, dedicated, and intense manner you can change things.

when i was 15 my football coach began putting me through extremely intense workouts: Powerlifting including heavy squats and hang cleans ( and i was not doing all of these with correct form). I was wondering if this would have made me perhaps mature earlier, and therefore stunted the growth of my penis ( i have not grown at all in height since i began heavy lifting).

i know i shouldnt worry its in the past but just curious

No! I highly doubt doing heavy lifting will effect penis size...

i think the point hydro was trying to make is that a healthy supply of testosterone in the body makes for a healthy penis, and sports help to increase testosterone levels. testosterone alone cannot make someone have a big penis, but during puberty it does help and has a big effect on sexual development. testosterone also affects sperm production and erections, but not necessarily size.

i guess genetics is the most important factor. but of course, pe proves that even with genetics not in your favor, the penis is a muscle, and muscles can be exercised and increase in size.

i think the relationship of testosterone to penis size is similar to that of metabolism and body-type. someone with a high metabolism will naturally be more fit, but it doesnt guarantee that they will be athletic or even slim. the individual still has to participate in the sports and eat healthy to take advantage of their metabolism and get their body in the shape they want. same thing with penis size, the individual needs to exercise his penis to take advantage of the present testosterone and get the size they want

when I was younger, I was very active. I played football, baseball, softball, ice skated, rode bicycles, motorcycles, swam, caddied at a golf course, played golf and worked physically hard. If exercise and activity had anything to do with penis size, I should be a tripod, but that aint the case. Genetics may contribute, but I don't think that's the case either, my dad was big, my one grandfather I knew was hung halfway to his knee, ( and he was a short man, 5-6 - 5-8) and NO there wasn't anything funny going on there, just used to have to change in the men's locker when we went to a pool or a beach.
I think it's in the cards we're dealt, so we either play out our hand or we try to do something about it

[BigTymer]

What we CAN do is use our work ethics from sports and apply them to PE. I'm gonna go HARD in the paint.LOL

I think that this has to be genetics. Just like height and your body structure. I don't think that testosterone would have any effect when you are young and play sports. Or else most boys would grow huge penis because of that who are active in sports. Most boys have penis length of 5 to 7 inches I heard unless you are a PE veteran.

[cypher79]

I think its mainly about which body type youve got. There are three body types, endomorph(fat), mesomorph(muscular), and ectomorph(skinny). My personal opinion is that the naturally muscular guys are usually born with average to larger penises, the endomorphs and ectomorphs usually tend to have small to average penises. For example I have a couple of friends who are mesomorphs and they never do any exercise, they eat junk food a lot, but they always keep their physiques and their always boasting about theyre big penises(and do their gf's). My body type is endomorph and my penis is a bit on the small side, my friend is also an endomorph and Ive heard his ex-gf's saying he had a small dick. I mean, how many times have you heard about an overweight guy with a big dick? Never i'm guessing, but when you hear about guys with big dicks they usually have naturally good physiques.

[da_shine99]

There was a porn clip in which these fat guys had small cocks. Normally their fats under their stomach would make their penis smaller.

[Mase64]

im a musclar guy sort of... all of my fat is in the stomach so this spring im looking to loose it and see if my dick gets bigger... mmmmmmmm

[Jethroll]

I would lean toward psychology. Many people have a lot of fear and tension and most of us absorb alot of garbage growing up. People who have no such things and are thusly genetically gifted end up with the bigger penis. If anything has been proven by these forums it's that we all have pretty good size dicks, but we were unable to tap into that source growing up for whatever reason.

[Lorenzo_91]

Jethroll what did you just say. I read that twice and I'm not dumb but I don't think I am even near understanding what you said. Will you please break that whole last post down for me. I would really appreciate it. Thanks:confused:

[Jethroll]

Allright, firstly: pretty much everyone here knows that our penis isn't reaching full potential. In other words, though we perceive with all are senses that are dick is a certain size, it's mostly illusory, are dick is bigger than what we think. Hence, we gain length and girth.
Okay, I hope that's clear. Now that we know we've all got a dick rather larger than we think, we ask ourselves: if my dick's really that large why wasn't I able to tap into that potential while I was growing up? What I mean is that, until growth totally stops in a man, there's the potential for a man's dick to grow as well without the aid of something like PE.
Now, what made it that our dick didn't keep growing to a more potent potential? What I'm saying is that it's psychological. The mind does affect the body. Period. As we grow up, each of us absorbs, habits, routines, ideas created by other people that are probably 90% garbage. For instance, as an impressionable young child you sat next to a fat kid with super poor posture. It's altogether possible that you absorb some of this bad posture into your life as a child. So as you grow up and go through a major growth spurt like puberty you have this problem with your posture, your posture isn't letting your mind totally relax and function at it's phenomenol level. This is could lead to any number of things. As children we absorb all sorts of things like this that stops are body from functioning to it's full potential.
Add in the fact that many people are force fed a handful of fear, (if you don't have a big dick you can't please a woman) a loadful of tension (if you don't earn the bread you'll never get a decent women) and you have a recipe that doesn't spell success.
All these psychogical factors, all these bogus patterns of belief and mentality eventually take a toll, our mind fatigues. Instead of killing our body it deactivates parts that aren't totally neccessary for surivial. Suddenely, our heart doesn't pump out a really high volume of blood in the most fluid, smooth manner possible.
All in all, there are psychological blocks that stop so many people from reaching their full potential in youth. Sometimes it's for the better, more often than not though it's for the worse.
Now some people don't absorb certain mentalities, their mind doesn't shut down certain areas of the body due to what many might term a genetic gift. The term genetic gift is probably a pretty accurate assessment. This genetic gift allows a person to suddenely overcome the fear, tension and garbage to become a more phenomenol individual. This individual might have a very large dick, maybe a star athlete, or have intellectual brilliance to name a few possibilities.
Well, I hope that makes a lot more sense toyou Lorenzo.

[Lorenzo_91]

Jethroll, it makes excellent sense. I am actually a big beliver in all things dealing with the mind. For example the maxims of reinforcement, all positive energy and various other things. Some of these techniques have really improved my life. One thing is since I was young I belive my body to be virtually indestructuble, like so resistant to being sick for example so I never get sick even when I am around tons of sick people. I know that comes from me saying my whole life I never get sick and my immune system is bullet proof. I really mean I don't even know what it's like to have the flu. Or headaches also people alk about them all the time, I have never hd one just from the fact I wholeheartedly belive I don't get them. A bunc of other things an powers I have been able to harness through learning and believing. :sm14
So our penis is bigger than we perceive it to be (how do you mean, physically bigger, or kind of like the we are esteemed and perceived by others at the highest value at which we hold ourselves). Also my penis would of kept growing if it were not for the fact I thought I had a small penis from such an early age. So now I have to change my belief so my external reality will adapt to this new internal reality. I will start going about this through some basic affirmation then I will include it in various other methods I am learning. Thais sounds like a positive thing to work on no matter what, win win fo sure. :sm29
So what do you think will happen, the PE will be more effective. What determines our potential in this area? I am living my 26th year of life. Do you think I am still young enough? Anything else I am really interested in this topic. :rolleyes:

"What do you mean by hence we gain length and width" because we are measuring and that is concrete right?

[BigTymer]

I'm not sure on the exact saying, but it goes something like: "As a man thinketh in his heart, that he is.." Correct me on the quote if I am wrong, but I hope everyone gets the idea.....

[spiike]

let me tell you guys.. I was varsity gymnastics and varsity swimming in hs. I played football and was your typical outdoor kid. But you know what. The asian gene is like a foundation of bread without the yeast. Only hardcore exercising and psp (and various other arginine products) has saved me from the azn gene stereotype.

[bBigsomeday]

well from my experience i take the physical and psychological standpoint here. My reason for thinking so is as follows: My brother was always more atheletic while we were growing up while i was a couch potato video game wh0re. My brother has an inch of lenghth on me even though my build is bigger. Also my childhood I was exposed to alot more stress than my brother ( I was bullied in school always made fun of which lead to low self esteem, etc.)

I think that how good of shape you are in mentally and physically is related to penis size.

[Momo]

I do agree that genetics play a role. But, just like body building, the genetics you are looking at on day 1, and your genetic POTENTIAL, are two different things. You've got to work to unlock that potential, to find out what it is.

And the more time, effort, and thought you put into it, the more you'll eventually see some great results.

All in all, though - I'd say the most important element is to be a really horny bastard. For example, I was crawling on the floor to look up teachers' dresses when I was in pre-school. The female form fascinates me to no end, therefore I never tire of this subject, and remain dedicated year after year... with 'elevated bloodflow ideal for recovery and gains'... ahem.
