TOPIC: Penile Dysmorphic Disorder

Maybe there are some like-minded people on this board who live in your area? Get together and talk about these issues, you may come to find you\'re quite well off (you seem to know this, but refuse to accept it). Good luck, let us know if anythings developed.

Greetings marsupilami,

You definitely have a large penis, and your obsession with not being \"bulgy\" enough and thus feeling inadequate is symptomatic of dysmorphia. Glad you can see this, and hopefully you wont risk or jeopardize the great size and great sex you have now with needless & risky surgical intervention(s).

Thanks for your answers so far.

I had read here in the forum that some of you are heavily engaged in PE, in spite of being already well-endowed; that\'s why I thought I could add my own story as well. Also some of you have quite ambitioned goals for their final erected length or Girth, which I would consider as far too big (e.g. 3 inches in diameter, or 8 inches in length).

Today, on the one hand, I am quite confident about my erected penis. I know it is big enough for every purpose and well above average. On the other hand, I am still embarrassed sometimes when I see other men in the showers who habe a bigger Flaccid penis than I have erected. How could such people with such a horse dong not be content about their size? My Flaccid penis and the low-Hanging Balls really vanish in my undies!

But I would NEVER want to undergo any surgical procedure with my Cock or Balls; it already freaks me out to think that any \"foreign\" material, fat, pmm would be placed into my shaft, injected, cut off or whatsoever. Even if I suffered even more because of penis size, I would never like my body to be harmed to \"cure this out\". I\'m not even Circumcised, which is the normal case here in Europe. No baby boy is circed here at birth or in later childhood, except for religious reasons with Jews or Muslims, or because of serious medical indication.

I already serached through the Internet for German forums or groups, but nowhere I found the good atmosphere, the serious contributions and high level of argueing and discussion as here in PhalloBoards. I will keep on searching, but please let me stay here for another while, as long as I haven\'t found an adequate substitute.

Btw., I really appreciate your attempts to overcome your penile problems, be them only imaginative (like with PDD), or real (like with having a micropenis). But is it worth the time you afford on surgeries, stretching, jelquing, ...? What will happen if you reached your goals; more surgery, more stretching? Is it really about the penis? I wasted already too much time in spying after other men\'s dicks and Internet research, while I instead could have had quality relationships with real people, not connected with sex topics, just friendships, maybe dating girls, and so on. I still spend much time in sex-related forums like these, also in Germany, because I am fascinated by the topic and I also want to help people (especially young boys) with similar problems of self-esteem during puberty. But I drilled the time spent on such things down to an adequate level...

Best regards,
Harry the marsupilami

I don\'t know if I would call PDD imaginative. Maybe I\'m just splitting hairs.

@nohidingstyle:

No, I wouldn\'t consider it hair splitting. In fact PDD (or its absence) is a difficult topic, with so many medical, physical, psychological and aesthetical aspects involved. I just simplified it a bit, sorry.

I think it is easier when looking at the extreme ends of the scale - that\'s why, on one hand, I wrote of the \"micropenis\" as a medical condition nobody would deny to be an objective fact of \"lacking size\". On the other end of the scale, we have those people who have a penis far above average (that\'s why I cited the 3 inches of diameter), no matter if they are born with such monsters or acquired them by PE techniques - but who still believe they are under-endowed and feel unhappy if they cannot add some more inches to their tool... That is what I would clearly call a PDD condition. And there seem to be some people here on PhalloBoards who are knitted that way...

In my case, I feel like \"in between\". I know that my penis is quite okay in terms of erected dimensions and being able to habe good sex (and I would not try to change anything on it by PE), but I still lack confidence about the appearance in Flaccid state. This has been so from puberty till now, and I suppose it will always be. Maybe it would be different if I had engaged more in sports and my body looked more muscular, more defined and with less fat; a small penis with low Hanging testicles under a big belly is something like dysmorphic...

Writing about PDD and micropenis, I wonder if there is also the inverted case of PDD, i. e. people who are (objectively) small but believe that they are real monsters. Anyone outside?

Yea, it\'s called Delusions of Grandeur

There are tons of guys with the inverse PDD on LPSG, which I used to be on.

Well, I guess it\'s a happier living with inverse PDD than with REAL PDD...

Maybe...

I must be dysmorphic. I measured for the first time in almost a year... Not what I expected.

@nohidingstyle:

For the first time in almost a year? I thought you guys on PE would measure at least once a day...

What had you expected? And what did you really measure?

Shorter than I\'ve been telling myself, much thicker than I\'ve been telling myself. I prefer to use metric even though I\'m in the US. I\'ve been saying my length is 21cm in my head but I am 19cm, as for Girth I\'ve been saying 15cm but I\'m 17cm. Not sure what it means, maybe things change over time a lot. Maybe I care too much about small differences in perception. Idunno. Sigh.

That is a very healthy size you\'ve got.

Yeah, congrats! 19x17 cm is a really impressive piece of meat. Noticing the difference 15 cm (perception) to 17 cm (measurement) in Girth must have been like a X-mas present to you. This makes roughly half an Inch difference in diameter! For such a Girth \"gain\" I would easily let go 2 cm of length...

Sorry, I was wrong. Not half an Inch, but a quarter of an Inch difference in diameter. Still, this would be a palpable difference and I would like to have it (having 15 to 15.5 cm Girth myself)...
