I don't think Rik was very clear. Some people can't articulate as well as others. So, I'll try to translate for you.

No.

Rik, let me know if I missed something. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

P.S. Here's a little poem I heard once, which then proceeded to get stuck in my head, probably for the rest of my life:

Long and thin
It goes right in
But short and fat
Is where it's at.

penis size matters not, but font size does.

jbnet, I know Rik was being a bit subtle and you may not have caught on to the tone of his answer, but for the most part, we do not care what size you are nor do we care what size any of your body parts are. The only thing we care about is what you are doing with them.

We all have hands. If you use your hands to wave, play volleyball, or apply sunscreen, we don't care. If you use them to hit, grope others, or sexually gratify yourself in public, we have a problem. Size doesn't matter, use does.

We all have feet. If you use them to walk, dance, or aid in swimming, we don't care. If you use them to kick others or stonp on other's belongings, we have a problem. Size doesn't matter, use does.

Now, some of us have a penis. Use the same logic above to apply to the penis. If you are not doing anything inappropriate with it, we will have no problem with you, no matter its size. The only person who will be thinking about its size will be you. If anyone else comments about it, use the logic above in dealing with their mouth.

Oh and Rik, how did you get the font so big?

Penis size for men is a moot point in a nudist environment. The size of a man's penis when not aroused is not indicative of a man's full size. I personnally appear to be rather small at rest but that does not indicate anything.

Men and women all have unique physical features. That is what makes us different from each other. It would be rather boring if we were all the same.

I have to completely agree with Mic. The first time we went nude, I asked my wife how I messured up to the others. She said she wasn't even looking, but she knew the color of every guys eyes. I refer to myself as the accorn that becomes the mighty oak. Flacid size doesn't matter, and if your going nude, it really shouldn't matter.

I think 'what a size' of penis would be used for makes it clear enough. Sexually, we use the thing to reproduce, stimulate and take pleasure. Non-sexually, we use it to pee.

Nude beaches are nonsexual, right? Unless it affects your urinating abilities, any size would be fitting....in fact, peeing is irrelivent too

I finally decided that the underlying issue for her was fear that someone would be upset at where her eyes were looking. I suggested that she buy a pair of mirrored sunglasses so no one could tell where she was looking. She did, and began to relax and enjoy herself. Now it doesn't matter.

Obviously staring isn't acceptable (and not just in nude places), but people don't go blind when they take their clothes off it. It's a lot more relaxed to just allow yourself to see the whole picture. Pretty soon you forget that the people around you aren't wearing clothes.

I personally think sunglasses are a great idea at a sunny Co beach or resort.But would someone wearing them be considerd to be hiding something?....And what about cloudy days and indoors at resorts? /infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Most of our naturist experience involves bright sunny days where nearly everyone is wearing sunglasses. We were at a Caribbean resort when I made that suggestion. Wearing sunglasses at an evening indoor swim obviously would look wierd.

I was just intending to share how we got over a hurdle to help my wife become comfortable with naturism. Now that she is comfortable with it, she no longer worrys about where her eyes might be directed; the whole thing has become a non-issue.

However, conversations with others?plus the comment to which I originally responded?lead me to believe that my wife's concern is rather common among women new to naturism.

I, personally, could care less about the size of another mans penis. I assume mine is average, and if I'm at a nude beach, I don't worry about it being larger or smaller. It serves it's purpose either way.

In regards to the circumsision. While it is not a natural process, many people do it for religious reasons or health reasons (though there are benefits with either choice). I am circumsized myself and though I'd be curious to see what it is like not to be, I am at the same time content with that choice my parents made. I have not sons of my own yet...I don't know what my choice would be for them on that issue.

i don't think size matters, but leave the skin there. i was circumcised for health and religious reasons as a little baby, but it was not my choice as i was too young to decide. i did not cut my two boys because of the numerous benefits to leaving the foreskin.

could someone tell me how penis size got to the topic of circumcision, when circumsised all you loose is that forskin you don't need, it's a sourse of germs and other filth, also hides the guys beauty. As for penis size, it changes with conditions, A man does not have to be huge to satisfy, a womens G spot is close to the surface, to give those of us with a little less a little more. the rest is just extra, I was gonna say waste, but I know that would have brought some reply. Size is in the eye of the beholder. Some who are small when placid, might surprize you when needed.

What makes you think a man has to roll it back when he pees? He doesn't! And sex is much better with a natural man because there is a lot less friction on the woman's side which would mean we don't get sore as fast and can go longer. Of course, if the man can't last as long he's got a problem. /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

As for it being "a source of germs and other filth" well that isn't true either. It gets dirty like any other body part so you wash it, big deal. I don't see parents chopping off their kid's ears because they are dirty. And you know how dirty a kid's hands can get.... better chop them off too huh?

And it "hides a guys beauty"? How beautiful is it when it is full of scars? Do you really consider that pretty? I know a lot of guys that had too much skin taken and it is painful for them to have a full erection. I'm sure they aren't pleased with their parent's decision to cut something off that nature gave them very much.

I say let men decide for themselves when they are old enough to make such a decision.

As far as I know, the size of a penis has virtually nothing to do with its effectiveness in sexual intercourse. Why, then, do so many men go to great lengths to enlarge their male members? Is it solely motivated by vanity?

"First of all I have no idea how penis size ever got to this subject. First I want to know what Cindiane knows about being circumcised, and why she even cares,"

Evidently I know a lot more than you do. Why do I care? Because kids are being cut up over something that isn't at all necessary.

I was circumsized in the late forties, I have known many who have been clipped, I might say thousands, I have never heared of any problems, or any complaints. I have no idea where she gets here info, most men who have been circumsised are greatful, it is not mutilisation, it is a good thing, those who are not circumsised, I have no problem with, I think if they had it done they would like it, as for what the ladies think, I guess it's briefs as oppossed to boxers. It really don't matter what you preferre is up to you, the problem with circumcision is you find out to late, also briefs and boxers."

That is part of the point. They are done while you are an infant in most cases which means you had no choice in the matter. It was done without your permission. Why cut off a body part for no real reason other than the doctor told your parents it was a good idea? And now it turns out that the only reason they do it now is to make money and most are still done with no anesthesia.

I say let the kids decide when they get older if they want it taken off. Let it be their choice. Since I am assuming yours was done as a child you don't know how it would feel if you had one. Your penis's natural protection was taken from you and you've lost some of the feeling there and hopefully that is all but I know I've seen a lot of mutilated ones over the years. I know some guys that have to pee sitting down because they can't aim with what they have left. Yeah, that is really preferable to being intact! NOT!

I am circumsized, and I had both of my sons circumsized at birth.

You know what I don't even know why, it just seemed like I was supposed to. The doc asked and I said yes. The doc did not give pros or cons, nor did I ask.I just assumed it was what I was supposed to do. It was the more commen to do it than not, and I went with the majority, I guess.

There was not a whole lot of education on the reasoning behind it.

Fresh Air

Here's sort of a more clincal perspective on the pros and cons of circumcision:

Pros: Most of the pros have to do with personal preferences. However, there are some medical benefits. First the odds of a yeast infection (not common in men anyhow) does decrease. With less infection and a higher likelyhood of hygene, the chance of infecting the reproductive tract of a female partner during sex decreases. Though, if one is hygenic, that is not a problem. Penile cancer also decreases. There is also a condition where the opening of the prepuce does not grown enough and retraction of it can be difficult or impossible. It can lead to paraphimosis, if the retraction occurs and is unable to be place back over the glans of the penis. This cuts of the blood supply and in rare unfortunate cases can lead to gangrene and amputation. The final benefit (though heaven forbid anyone would be unsafe enough to benefit from it) is that HIV contraction occurs at the greatest ratio in the more moist and mucous-like skin on the inside of the prepuce. So, the odds of contracting HIV from an infected partner decreases.

Cons: The cons are obvious, I think. It's just pretty much that the penis is not in it's natural state. The epithelium (skin) of a circumsized penis actually changes to adapt to a more abrasive environment. This results in less sensation. Having a chunk of skin wacked off (that also has nerves in it) can be seen as causing less sensation aswell. If someone is predisposed to premature ejaculation, or prefers to last longer, though. These can be seen as a benifit by them, though I would hardly consider that a benefit. The onlly other one I have learned of is the functionality during sex. In a uncircumcised male the penis, when in the vagina, moves in a similar manner. However, the movement in and out of the vagina is often less abrasive to the vaginal walls, because the extra skin allows movement within the skin if you will. The glans going in and out of it's own prepuce supposedly feels very good and this movement means that stimulation can come from the males part, and is not purely dependent on contact and friction with a females vaginal wall. So, sex can be less abrasive for the famales anatomy.

I hope that helps,

A wise man once told me, "It's not the size of the boat that counts, but the motion of the ocean". /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif I don't think size should matter at all.

went to a nude beach for first time over weekend- I dont know for sure but it seemed like most guys were rather endowed - maybe thats why they are nudists-being of the unendowed branch of life, I did feel a bit embarrassed and sorta shied away from walking the beach actually as the more i walked the more shriveled i got, probably from nerves -Other than that I did enjoy the nude experience -maybe one day i will grow out of this silly drawback as would like to go to a resort one day

Of course 'endowment' doesn't really mean anything in a social context. Beside the 'who cares' factor (because nudists don't care how well endowed you are), what you see in a social context (a flacid member) has surprisingly little correlation to erect size. And legions of kind women have testified that size is not all that important in a sexual context (they may all be lying, bless them).

Just coincidently, while writing this there is a radio story about the book A Mind of Its Own: A Cultural History of the Penis (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0684853205/103-1924069-0939068?vi=glance)

arby, congrats on the first outing. the wind was a bit cool down in ft. lauderdale this weekend, so expect a bit of shrinkage. don't worry about size as i think most guys (and gals) at a nude beach couldn't really care less. there are some interesting studies on penis size and i'm sure you will find that large penis's are not the norm...

I guess penis size does matter to guys considering the "length" of this post. I always thought a person "measured" up by their actions rather than their size. Just an unbiased, female, unhijacked opinion. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I thought I would like to clear up the issue of penis size and the age old question "does size matter at nude beachs and resorts?"

Whats the answer???

Yes it does matter.

All resorts have what they call the penis policy which will not allow anyone under 10 inches in or near the facility. If you try to get in the camp with anything smaller than 10 a large group of women and men (although more women then men) come out an laugh at your penis. You are then chased of the premisis by dogs. If you are some how able to get inside the resort you are shot on site.

Now public nude beachs are a different story. There are no "specific" rules but there are rules that are inforced by fellow nudists. Nude beachs allow a penis size of 8 inches. If you are between 8 and 6 inches people scream, run, sheild there childrens eyes, and call the Little Penis Patrol (the LPP) which pelt you with rocks until you leave the premisis. Anyone under 6 inches is held down, has the name Ralph written on his back with permanent marker and is then released into the wilderness while the beach dwellers choose who will be Jack, Roger and the others. You are then hunted down like a boar.

So if your under ten inches your doomed.

Desperatley hopeing every gets the joke

Oh well gues i will have to go to a resort and test the size theory- all i know is i went to a nude beach for first time over weekend and bravely started walking along the beach on my way out and the farther i walked the smaller I got -I just knew if I didnt put on some shorts I would have a vagina by the time i reached the car

i stupidly went swimming in the ocean off of nantucket island and the water was so cold, a certain part of my male anatomy fully shrank and receded until i looked like a girl. arby - your member (whatever name you have called it, see other post about names) was just cold, its normal. do not take this as a sign that you have an inadequate willy (as someone posting on this site likes to call it). i think the large penis club was having their annual meeting at the beach when you went....

thanks for the story- maybe the Titusville Titans were meeting that day - Well i bought a year pass to Playalinda so maybe next time I go- they wont be having a meeting -I see u live in Ft L- am in Clearwater myself -BTW the pass is 35 bucks not 20 as some site on the web mentioned if others may be interested -Its 5 bucks a day otherwise

Yes penis size does matte - well it does to my friend anyway!

He is rather well endowed and thick, so much so that he is embarrassed by the size and wears shorts all the time when everyone else is naked. Mind you it doesn't help much as it still peeps out the bottom of the shorts.

He is not the only one. I often find that my "larger" friends (ie. the "abnormally large ones) are more reluctant to go naked than the other guys who are in the big to medium category.
This also applies to the "small" ones ( although only one of my friends is small).

So yes size doe matter - be average to big, not large or small!

As related to turkishnudes post about "overly large" members, I have stated in the past of how males are embarassed by having a too large member. They are just as embarassed by being extremely large, as some are by being too small. I was reluctant to go to the nude beach due to my size, but after attending, I realized, there were others in the same boat, who weren't ashamed, and were enjoying themselves just like everyone else. It works both ways, but in any way, the size does not matter.

ATaurusjoker: Congrats on writing the most clever, imaginative responce to a post I've ever
seen in this forum.
My friends, read his missive on this tired old subject of penis size. It's absolutely brilliant.
It's also an example of using humor that everyone enjoys to address a rather tedius subject on this board. ATaurusjoker..you rule!

I agree with NudeM,

There was a lot of joking on this subject in earlier posts, but the guy was serious when he asked about how others feel about the penis.

I'm thinking he wanted to know if they thought he was a lesser man because his penis is on the smaller side. Probably was really wondering how women thought about it, since us men know we carry around a different size at different times of the day. Sometimes we're bigger, sometimes we're smaller depending on room temperature, activity level, etc.. But as we read above, most women don't even notice your size or think about it in a nude environment. I'm mean they know -- just like there's different sizes of breasts -- that we come in all different sizes. Big deal!

(That said, having a "smaller" penis, perhaps he feels intimidated by men who are more "endowed". But only because he's thinking others are thinking what he's thinking: that something must be different about the "bigger" guy. That he's somehow different, or "better" because his penis happens to be bigger.) Wrong. It's in your mind.

Us men definitely think more about our penis size than women consider penis size when we're not in a sexual environment. They probably wonder what we think about their breasts. But nudism and naturism is all about being free and acepting everybody -- and yourself -- in what ever size or shape.

So Relax! and enjoy your freedom and get over yourself.

In a nude environment, do you judge a nude woman by the size of her breasts? Large, small, medium...? I certainly don't. Her size has nothing to do with her personality or intelligence, etc.. so why would she care about the size of your flacid penis in a non-sexual environment?

Besides, we all know that you're bigger than you look -- in the right environment. That's nature.

Really, WE all think about our own bodies and how we look much more than others do. To the guys who are very large or very small, I say, hey that's what makes the world a great place: we're all different. Be free to enjoy your body freedom! ... and love and accept yourself!

Trust me, penis size does not matter at all. It doesn't matter to me or other women and I think we would accept you no matter how big or small your penis size is.

I also agree that penis size does not matter. Everyone seems to agree that it is a non issue. But why do we talk about it so much? This is easily one of the most talked about topics - along with shaving.

Has anyone ever been harrassed at a nudist venue because they don't seem to measure up? I doubt it. Has any women been asked to leave a nudist resort because her breasts weren't "model perfect". Don't think so.

I'm fat, hairy and middle aged. And yes, my penis is on the small side. In spite of all of these "negatives" people like me. The day that anyone tries to intimidate me because of any of these factors -- I'll be sure to post it.

Enjoy the sun. Smile. And be nude!

hey i have a solution to this problem its dunlap.
you know where your belly done lapped over?
its my opinion that size does matter,the size of your heart,the size of your willingess to give ,to listen,to hear,to understand,to care.
oh that other thing it serves a purpose to,it keeps us in trouble with women because we just can not remember to lower that seat. however it is fun to plastic warp the toilet at partys.

I think that was a typo. I believe he meant to say "wrap." That is a great idea. Hehe. Did you know cellophane comes in different colors now? It could bring holiday spirit to the potty. My thoughts goe something like this: If you sprinkle when you tinkle be sweet and wipe the seat. And my all time favorite: We aim to please; you aim too, please! Have a great day. /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Hey Mikey Bear - I like your response and I say to others that you only will feel intimadated if you let it feel intimadating to you on this subject of penis size. You have what you have, I have what I have (which I must admit is quite average yet adequate). And size varies depending on weather, temperature, activity, etc. Just get buff naked and enjoy the day.

From what I've read recently,size really don't matter, drive a pretty stud through it, or put a neat I love you rose tattoo by it, thats all that matters, I guess that makes it work better, I guess thats just me, I still think a little amore' is a little more important, maybe some Viagra. love RR.

Penis size shouldn't really matter. I've only been to the nude beach once, but in other nude experiences, no one really pays attention to how long your penis is.

I have always been comfortable with the size of my penis, its pretty much average, maybe a little larger, but no one really comments on it /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Of course in the sauna its always fun to show off a bit /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

My God, I hope not!! Actually, that's why nudity is open to everyone: men, women, large, small (I hope you're not talking about me here) even children. No, size doesn't matter. Behavior and the fact that you're here, enjoying yourself is what matters.

I guess it must matter to some people, else they wouldn't be bringing up the subject all the time.

Penis size has nothing to do with the practice of nudism. The clothes seem able to come off regardless. Most nudists don't give a damn. Don't worry about whether you 'measure up', that's not what we measure. Ho hum.

"Did you see how big his thingy is, it makes him seem kind and intelligent." Yeah, uh huh

From the profiles, we all are grown ups here. Anybody asking this question needs to get over it. If you look at the photos in the gallery, most people are pretty average. Due to our anatomies, size can vary greatly on the environment. Occasionally at a swim or beach, there will be someone on the unusually large or small size and I'll ask my wife if she noticed, she usually isn't even paying attention. A doctor was once asked if had ever been asked by a woman to have her husband's penis enlarged, he said no, but had been asked to attach his penis to a nicer guy. I guess being nice is more important than size.

I, personally, could care less about the size of another mans penis. I assume mine is average, and if I'm at a nude beach, I don't worry about it being larger or smaller. It serves it's purpose either way.

In regards to the circumsision. While it is not a natural process, many people do it for religious reasons or health reasons (though there are benefits with either choice). I am circumsized myself and though I'd be curious to see what it is like not to be, I am at the same time content with that choice my parents made. I have not sons of my own yet...I don't know what my choice would be for them on that issue. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
