Or... like I said before about survivorship bias and other factors that skew data... You're on a forum literally for guys with big dicks. So maybe the data will show guys with big dicks.

Much like if I took a survey/poll for height at an NBA locker room and found a higher than average height.

Or average salary at a hedge fund corporation and a much higher than average salary.

Understand where I'm coming from? I say this just to inform you of things that can skew your literal worldview.
Well, I did some math and found the standard deviation needed for such variation would be 1.2 inches. This is closer to the SD found by Wessells data. The Vasoconcelos data, for some reason, has much less variation and, accordingly, a lower SD. Wessells BP erect data shows average 6.2 inches with SD of 1.03 inches, while my poll shows rough average of ~6.5 inches with rough SD of ~1.2 inches. It's not horribly off if we assume that people were answering in bone-pressed measurements. Bottomline is that this poll shows high variance. Higher than nearly every study I've seen. I doubt people would be lying to make themselves look smaller.

*shrug* I get a good amount of people calling me at least above average but it wouldn't be according to Wessells. Being within a standard deviation would still be average right? Genuine question, I'm not sure/can't remember.

Within one SD is very vague. That means you could be anywhere from 16 percentile to 84 percentile. What is your bone-pressed erect length while supine?

I'd actually like you to guess, I'm sure you will find it within the range of 1 SD of Wessells Data. But maybe still less than a SD can still be above average or big.

What percentile and SD would start above average? And what would the criteria be for big, and huge?

According to my calculation, you're in the range of 5.7-5.9 inches. I'll take 5.8 inches as non-bone-pressed. You don't seem to be supine. Assuming an average NBP erect length of 5.07 inches and an SD of 1.15 inches, you would be roughly 74 percentile. If my estimated length is incorrect, tell me what it is and I'll revise the computations. Also, provide a BP erect length and I can calculate a percentile.

"What percentile and SD would start above average? And what would the criteria be for big, and huge?"

Anything above 50 percentile would be above average. "Big" and "huge" is arbitrary. To me, I look at 6.5 and think big and anything above 7 is huge. Anything above 8 is Goliath. Anything above 9 and you're pushing the limits of human anatomy. 10 is Godly.

Interesting. So 49th percentile is below average? What would be defintions for average, below avg, small, and micro? And I'm assuming those numbers are for nbp.

Unfortunately because of my weight it is impossible for me to take a picture of myself bp erect without help. So you wpuld have to take my word. But I do wonder your guess for my bpel, those were all pics of it BP.

I was actually inbetween supine and lateral recumbent. Needing to sit up to take the pic past my belly.

Well, that is my guess. Range 5.7-5.9 inches with most likely length being 5.8 inches. I'm guessing I'm way off lol...

Yes, 49th percentile is below average. There are no definitions for small and micro. It's arbitrary. I'm looking at anything below 5 as small, honestly. Even though the supposed average is 5 inches. I was watching this Youtube video with Adin Ross and they were talking about penis size and one person said 7 is small. Lol. Everyone has their own perspective. Of course, 7 is not small.

I see. This all helps me try to understand what others see in my pics. As I always get a wide variety of guesses by different people but I can't ever know what they base their opinions on/by lol.

So when you originally estimated my size as "above average" it was erroneously thought to be nbp? I just want to clarify lol. So basically my BP length looked "above average"?

What's the average BP measurement?

I thought it was non-bone-pressed because bone-pressed is usually measured with a ruler pushing the fat pad down to the pubic bone. I can't tell if it looks above average. You would need to get head from a girl and I would judge it like that. Pictures are not enough for me to make a judgment. Average BP according to Wessells is 6.2 inches.

I see. So if we take your guess of 5.8 BP and compare it with Wessells' data, I am below average by Wessells status in your opinion.

Haha okay that's fair! I don't get a lot of people who say below average but a few do and I always wanted to see what they see.

Well I don't know if you can believe me but when I measure BP I get to about 7.25". Most people think I'm above average at least. Some average, a small few below average. But now I see your worldview is through Wessells study as fact and can understand why you see it that way! Thank you! Sorry to drag this out. I never got an opportunity to get a deep analysis before.

Oh on this... I was thinking if you guessed it as a size that is below average, you are telling me it looks below average. Because otherwise why would you guess it as a size you dont think it looks?

Originally it was guessed and must have looked above average but when given further data, it now looks below average I assume?

If that is indeed the case, according to Wessell's data, you would be roughly 85 percentile.

No, I said it was above average, according to Wessell's NBP data. Not if it looks above average. One is according to data, the other is according to how it looks. I can't tell if it looks above average unless you get a video of someone stroking you and giving you head.

Uh... sorry but to me that sounds odd. Like if someone said they can guess someone's height but they cant tell if someone looks average height or tall unless they are playing basketball...

Like I can't get how you can come to make a guess of what someone's dick size is visually but also can't say if it looks a certain size.

The only way this makes sense is if one's judgement of size does not match actual data for size. Or you don't believe me. I would honestly assume it more likely that to you, I am lying than your judgment is off.

But I'm being totally honest. This is the big reason why I have worry/insecurity. I can't show adequate proof so I fear I look a liar.

It's because a video of someone's penis getting stroked and sucked gives us a better view of how it looks relative to other objects. That makes for a clearer assessment. Needless to say, based on the photos, your penis looks good and above average. But the videos could solidify my initial impression.

From the pics you posted i would have guessed at least 7.5" BP. Looks way longer than me and like you people's opinions on my size is all over the map ranging from a average to huge. Lol. I just chalk it up to how the pic was taken plus some people just want to see a big dick so their imagination gets the better of them.

This is where I get even more confused haha. Am I correct you also believe 7BP isn't actually big. Since that is your measurement and you have said it isn't big. Do you think 7BP is at least above average? Average?

I see you would have guessed me as 7.5BP. I assume you wouldn't think that is below average. But just a minute ago someone whom you seem to share a similar worldview on penis size guessed me as below average. (But simultaneously says it looks above average! Haha sorry I don't mean to keep bringing it up, I'm just really confused there - more than usual)

Basically even people who have a similar opinion on size; dont seem to line up with guessing size. Which is how most people's entire worldview of penis size is based off just estimating and guessing, since no one is actually measuring...

Im just going by what I see. No you dont look how I perceive an average penis to look and yes even I think 7.5" BP would be at least above average. Like the OP I do have an opinion that average BP could possibly be close to 7". Specifically mid to high 6's. One thing I think that most will agree on is a decently girthy NBP 6.5- 7" dick at least looks fairly well endowed.
