When I asked Chris, 34 — a man I’ve slept with a few times and who I can confirm has a Certifiable Boyfriend Dick (for me, that’s somewhere around seven inches, I think) — whether he has ever had size anxiety with a new partner, he said, “Especially at a young age, it’s pretty much the source of your biggest fears.” And that hasn’t changed as much as you’d think as he’s gotten older. “I’m not generally insecure about my penis, but I’m also realistic. No guy would turn down a bigger dick, unless it’s already massive.” My friend Jeremy, 32, said that although he knows he’s statistically above average (between five and six inches in the U.S., depending on your source), “I assume [women] always want bigger.” And to think, these are the men who should be at peace with their appendages, relative to most of the penis-having population!
