Penis Size: Measuring Up to Your Woman’s Sex Toy

Glass Dildo on BreastLet’s dispel any “polite society” myths right now.  Women have sex toys.  We love them.  Straight and bisexual women love penises, too.

While most men know how long they are, a lot of men don’t seem to know how wide they are.  This is a shame since most women prefer width over length.  Many men may not realize that when women shop for sex toys, width is one of the most important considerations.  In fact, many women buy sex toys based more on the width than the length.

A toy that is penis-shaped and 1-1/4″ wide would not be considered by most experienced women shoppers; whereas, a 2″ wide penis-shaped toy might be about as wide as a woman wants to go.  My personal toy preference is between 1-5/8″ and 1-3/4″ wide for regular use because it’s easier to handle and doesn’t wear out my wrist. For special occasions, I go for my 2-inch wide best friend.

On a side note, sex toys designed to stimulate the female prostate are oftentimes more narrow and more curved than the usual dildo.  For prostate stimulation, and especially for female ejaculation, wider is not usually better.

When it comes to sex, size really does matter because too long or too wide can hurt the woman.  Better to ask up front what size toy your woman likes to use and see how you measure up to what she prefers.  This gives you an idea how compatible you two will be physically.  For instance, if her favorite toy is 1.5″ wide and you’re 1.75″ wide, you know ahead of time that extra lube and extended yoni worship may be required before insertion.  (Note: If you’re too shy to ask her about her sex toy, maybe you shouldn’t have sex with her in the first place.)

So how do you measure up to your woman’s favorite sex toy?  Here are some tips on how to measure your penis:

Use a flexible measuring tape, not a ruler.

Measuring Penis Length For length:

Measure from the base to the tip while fully erect.  Measure on the top side of the penis, from the lower abs at the pubic bone.  The vagina is only about 3.5 inches in length, on average, but can expand up to 200% when fully aroused.

Do NOT press!  Measure your penis from the base (that you can see and probably hold onto when you masturbate). If you are really overweight, you penis may be partially hidden by abdominal fat. Don’t press in too much just to add an extra half inch or so to your length measurement.  Last time I checked, the woman’s pubic bone does not magically extend outward into the man’s abs during sex.

Measuring Penis Width GirthFor width:

Measure around the widest part of the fully aroused, fully erect penis to get the circumference.  Where this point is varies.  Some men are wider at the base, while some are wider in the middle, and some near the head.  Measuring the width is especially important for men who are widest in the top third of the shaft and the head, as this is the part of the penis most likely to actually be inserted into the woman.

If the head is bulbous and noticeably wider than the rest of the penis, measure the circumference of the head as well…. just to know.

Now, you get to use that high school algebra you never thought you would ever need.  To get the width (diameter) of a circle (penis shaft), divide the circumference (around measurement) by pi  (3.14).

ArousedWoman.com - Man Uncut Penis Circumference Formula to Measure Penis WidthIf the circumference is:

4.5″ = penis is 1.43″ wide
5.0″ = penis is 1.59″ wide
5.5″ = penis is 1.75″ wide
6.0″ = penis is 1.91″ wide
6.5″ = penis is 2.07″ wide
7.0″ =penis is 2.23″ wide
7.5″ = What are you? Caligula’s horse?!

I’m not saying you should steer clear of a potential partner just based on penis size, but to deny the importance of sex in the relationship is Puritanical nonsense.  Many relationships and marriages end because the sex was not pleasurable or the partners were not sexually compatible.

By the way, guys, don’t worry if you are in the long-and-narrow or the short-and-wide department.  Every vagina is different. Regardless of how you measure up, there is a partner for you — you just have to find her!

  1. Good post. I am not sure about asking a woman about the size of her sex toy BEFORE you have sex with her for the first time. That might come off a little strange and be a turn off. I’d rather have her see my penis the first time and then tell me if it will or will not work for her.

  2. Wow. Don’t trip on your male ego, there! I know men want women to be awestruck and amazed at their penis, but trust me, a little communication ahead of time is ALWAYS in order. 🙂

  3. All though iv never had any complaints,I’m concerned about my size, I’m 6ft 230lbs average build when I look at penis or grab a hold of it,it seems small to me. It’s definitely small flaccid turtle head most of the time,but when erect it if I measured it right its 7in long and 4 3/4 in in girth just wondering how I measure up. Thank you

  4. Fantastic article! Thanks for the ‘heads-up’ on how to measure a penis. I wonder how many men who read this will go out and grab a tape measure today. Sadly, it can be a major ego-buster for those who don’t feel like they ‘measure up’ by the numbers (i.e. six inches or more). Still, I am glad that you mentioned the value of width; and, even just as important, the concept of there being a suitable mate for everyone. These are wonderful words of advice and encouragement, AW!! Although I am still a little shaky on the concept of asking a potential partner about their sex toys, I do understand that being upfront and honest can help get a relationship started in the right direction. Thank you again for this great article! Now, off to find my tape measure (again)! The measuring part can be kind of fun, you know?? 😉

  5. The measuring is ALWAYS fun! Measure during different levels of excitement. Make a game out of it. HAVE FUN!

    And thank YOU for leaving such a fantastic comment.
