Why he is “small”

Posted by Ria, 29 Dec

Most of us (men and women alike) obsess about a man’s size. And I am not talking about his height or shoe size … his package. Well if you are always wondering why his member is small, here is why: mommy’s exposure to chemicals.

New research says that if a pregnant mother is carrying a boy, chances are; exposure to chemicals will cause the boy to be born with a smaller penis. The New York Post reports that these are chemicals called “endocrine disrupters” which are found in fire retardants, cosmetics, food wrappers and baby powder. These chemicals interfere with hormones in male vertebrae animals. Which means if your man has a small junk, it probably got stunted while he was still in the womb.

“This research shows that the basic male tool kit is under threat,” says Gwynne Lyons, a former government adviser on the health effects of chemicals.

In recent years, wildlife and people have been exposed to more than 100,000 new chemicals and according to the European Commission 99 percent of them are not satisfactorily regulated.

Now you know … if you are stressed about your “size”, consolation is that the length or girth of your penis has nothing to do with your masculinity. Plus you have one more thing to blame on mommy. ;-)

    You best believe the research is true, but those are not the only factors. Soy, soy is not as good for you as you think. Soy is very harmful soy can stunt the male penis growth and cause other problems. You know those infant formulas that are given when the babies have an intolerance to milk. Many contain soy. Read the book "The whole soy story" You will be really surprised. And Many women who have delivered male babies and were instructed to feed them soy based formulas are reporting that their male child has grown up with some or all of the side affects mentioned in this book. Now personally I am not on the size hype because if you have a penis as long as a telephone poll and don't know what the hell to do with it then its useless. Skill over size anyday. The best sex I ever had was with a man with a small penis. So there you have it from the Veteran diva of AR herself.

    i made the mistake of asking this one guy Brian i was interested in, his size, he replied enough, when i pushed the matter he said i was coming off low-class, that woman just shouldn't ask those questions because if a man has an in adequate size where does he go from there, he says he doesn't go around asking woman how tight or loose is their "coucie". It hurt that he implied i was low-class, just because he was insecure with his junk( my opinion)and needless to say it did not work out with B (aka Brian) because of a lack of communication and trust. i for one believe you should be able to ask a potential partner anything, i am a avid believer in truthful communication and compatibility, and some times that includes junk size. lol

    SIZE MATTERS - When you see a man naked his size adds to the overall beauty of his physique, otherwise you might as well be looking at a woman (unless you're a lesbian - and no disrespect meant to lesbians)! I had a relationship with a guy with no more than 3", and although we made it in other ways, the important thing,the anticipation of penetration, was missing! And don't say use fingers - its not the same! The act of penetration brings you close together, and this cannot be achieved if the size is small. When you fall for a guy his size doesn't matter, but us girls would definitely prefer larger than, or if not at least the average. Did someone say 6"? As for vaginal size, the vagina is only 2", but it baloons to accept a more than average size. What causes the problem of being too big is childbirth. So women out there stop having children! (lol)

    Though some of the information in the doku "the disappearing male" might be true, the doku lacks of facts. looks more like another example, of the male exorcism going on in the western societies today, claiming us responsible for low sperm counts, rapist, porn addiction, violence, and prostitution In my part of the world, the stats shows, that it is still woman who counts for the majority of the fertility problems, (although sperm counts has also been declining due to some studies).

    hi guys let us not shift from the real issues here.i totally agree with stlrapper and ye gud guys. whether the size is affected by the chemicals or dna is not the point.we should be more practical and sensitive in that we should not judge and condemn all those gud men with small dicks coz sincerely its neither their fault nor is it fair.we should not give ourselves headaches for things we dont have power over.let me ask u women ; how would you feel if a man u love forsakes u for the simple reason that u ve a funny looking vag or u are too big or small?so guys think twice before u jump to conclusions coz these are things that make most of people both sexes have low self-esteem and feel alienated. love is what matters and not size.

    Oh my goodness, are we all going to give pause to the guy with the very small penis? What to do when you are eye to eye with it? Tell him it's his Mom's fault? I am not so silly as to equate the size with actual manhood, but common girls! Tell me it doesn't matter after a few months trying to figure out how you are going to settle for "nothing" for the rest of your life??? Just have to ask the question.

    I read somewhere once that the Nazis had a torturous looking contraption called a "schlangenlonger"(sp)...lol...and that the Aryan length was to be achieved with the aid of this trusty "device".I forget the Nazi ideal metric.Maybe it was measured by Hitler's rectal measurements?

    stlrapper,olmec& anacandela.I agree absolutely with you fellas.When we shunt aside useful issues in a relationship and get engrossed in peripheral matters like "size" we end up losing our perspective.You should love your man regardless of his "size". After all there is a lot more at stake here than just size.I don't mean to play down the importance or imperativeness of 'satisfaction' in a game.What i am saying here is simply that there is a lot more here than size.After all is said and done the quality of a choir's music has very little to do with the length of the conductor's rod. On a related issue i think stlrapper is a 'bomb'.I wouldn't mind a one on one with her.

    I agree with vt33 and shimska...stlrapper, gr8 point. Hormones, chemicals, etc definetely affect the development and health of living organisms but I would look to genetics as the explanation (or at least greatest determining factor) of penis size. Lemmholdya..penis size DOES matter but what that ideal size is varies woman to woman. That is why women (like myself) just simply say it doesnt matter...I prefer a "smedium" as one member put it...but if I were to say that size matters, a man will just assume I want a big d*ck.

    This is the stupidest argument I've ever read about the male genitalia. While I do believe injested chemicals affect our bodies I DON'T agree that's a blanket explanation for a small penis. It's genetics. Sorry!

    I can attest to size does not matter as long as the guy knows what he is doing and is willing to please. Some one told me - a guy- that the average penis in the United States is 4 inches. Based on what I know first hand, I would say 6 would be more average. But what makes good sex is knowing your partner, having some level of chemical attraction to one another, and openly appreciating them. This intimacy and your actions bring each other a more satisfied experience.

    It's true, look at the journal of urology, recently they had a paper come out that tells of the condition of "hypo-spadeus" which is a decreased anogenital length in baby boys, which means a smaller penis side. These endocrine disrupters are known also xenoestrogens. Two main chemicals that are from the plastic and petrochemical industries are big players, bisphenol A and phalates, these are in everything from cd's shampoo, conditioner, and carpt, literrally everywhere. The even funnier thing is that in the 1930's this class of chemicals were being looked at to be used for ESTROGEN REPLACEMENT. what do you think happens if you dump loads of estrogen essentially into a developing baby..not good. Canada has recently banned plastic bottles in that country because these chemicals will leech out of the plastic and into the contents of the bottle. A CBC documentary the disappearing male..explains it alot better than I. and link(s):http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/06/opinion/06sat4.html?_r=2&oref=slogin http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/health/article5209244.ece http://earthhopenetwork.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=1252 actual link to the documentary:http://www.archive.org/details/TheDisappearingMale-CBC here is a small snippet from it, a descrpition: The Disappearing Male "We are conducting a vast toxicological experiment in which our children and our children's children are the experimental subjects." Dr. Herbert Needleman The Disappearing Male is about one of the most important, and least publicized, issues facing the human species: the toxic threat to the male reproductive system. The last few decades have seen steady and dramatic increases in the incidence of boys and young men suffering from genital deformities, low sperm count, sperm abnormalities and testicular cancer. At the same time, boys are now far more at risk of suffering from ADHD, autism, Tourette's syndrome, cerebral palsy, and dyslexia. The Disappearing Male takes a close and disturbing look at what many doctors and researchers now suspect are responsible for many of these problems: a class of common chemicals that are ubiquitous in our world. Found in everything from shampoo, sunglasses, meat and dairy products, carpet, cosmetics and baby bottles, they are called "hormone mimicking" or "endocrine disrupting" chemicals and they may be starting to damage the most basic building blocks of human development. more links:

    "Can't work the middle cause his thing to little" (thank you Kim Jones for that quote of the day) Reality is, women always hollering about size girth width, "if its to small I can't feel it", "girl it was so big I could feel it in my stomach" etc. I think you all can recall a comment or two on a men's doinkage. I read somewhere creatvity is key with a small doink, I guess it would have to be. Bottomline, if you are a little doink, a medium doink, or draggin the floor needing a radio flyer to carry your doink, it all comes down to the essence of knowing how to use your tool. Here is a interesting thought on the subject matter, as a carpenter you build things, so you pull out your tools to create beauty. Experience and handling of the tools are key to building great things. I guess, if you know how to use your tools, no matter what the size is, you can lay a mean piece of wood, and your client will be completely satisfied. Get the point!

    All I'm saying is size is everything. I mean I'm not huge (7.3 x 5.9) but every woman, all things else being equal, would be with the better equipped man. Just like all things considered, every man would be with the woman with wider hips and bigger breasts....it's a genetic predisposition connected with our desire to have healthy babies. Big penises or certain features of a woman subconsciously say they would be good for fathering/mothering our babies.

    Well we live in a world where it matters to some.People have to learn to be comfortable with what they have.Man/Woman.Im sure there are alot of meaningful relations lost because of that issue,where it leaves women on a quest to find the big one,and in doing so they will have many more unmeaningful relations on this quest,because you will always find someone who has this but doesnt have that vice/versa.All you can do is try to get a good fit. Flip side is men become like the women since size matters to woman, now men can be like you what "your overweight" of your underweight i dont like it or your breast are just a little too small and i dont like implants, or your butt is too small, or too big,or your not that pretty you know. It just leaves both parties man/woman who can always have an objective. Some woman have easier orgasims,to some woman it doesnt matter like some men dont need an hour glass figure on their wife, some men do.

    I think the majority of women will agree with me, even those who say size doesn't matter: When you're fantasizing about how your ideal man would look, he's reasonably well endowed. I think most of us would prefer that, but in reality, it is just more important to some women than others. In my opinion, an average size man that knows what he is doing is much preferred over a well endowed man who is clueless.

    Fascinating article, Ria - Thanks! Excellent comments, Soosoogood! Fish in the Colorado river are having an increasingly hard time maintaining their populations. In addition to silt, dams, chemicals and overfishing, caffeine and estrogen from our pee have made most of the fish female and all of them a bit spastic, stressed and shorter-lived. Both caffeine and estrogen are difficult for waste-water treatment plants to remove. Has anyone wandered around ancient dwellings? The people were so tiny! It's not just the small doors and low ceilings but beds and work spaces, as well that are small - Matching skeleton size. We're generally larger, stronger and much longer-lived from better quality of life and I think we've still got a long way to go. If nothing else, we're aware of so much we do that's harmful and that's the first step in rectifying problems.

    Now that we know of this threat we act and do something about it. Size only matters if you are 3 inches or smaller, most of the penis does not provide sensation to please a woman anyway, the clitoris is up front the G spot is about 3 inches in. Size only matters if your partners wants size, believe me their are other ways to please a woman. Caseus

    The tris(tributyltin oxide was banned in the UK years ago because it was the cause of whelks changing their gender. So clearly dna is not the only issue here. There are people who appear to be female with male dna because of chemical triggers that malfunctioned in the womb. And the thought of this forum being appropriate for scientific peer reviewed articles is silly but it is a fine place to put topics on the table for anyone who wants to research a topic further for themselves (in my opinion).

    I feel size may matter to some women. If you have been with a man that's WAY above average you might appreciate, a smaller penis. A larger penis requires the man to have some "skills" to wield the huge thing around. If a man has a smaller package, there are limitless possibilities... I like a "smedium"lol... Regardless of size, every woman deserves more than five minutes of funk-lol
