Here's a story that would be funny if it weren't so fucking awful:
My employer used to do dick enlargement surgery. Then they stopped because "it didn't work" - or rather, it "only showed improvement in cosmetic ways - in the locker room, but not in bed". So they stopped, rather than put men through pointless and painful surgery for purely cosmetic gain.
Labial surgery, clitoral de-hooding, all kinds of unnecessary and purely cosmetic surgery on the *female* anatomy, these all just go right ahead.

Ok, the puns have to stop. Next we'll be posting pictures of suggestive vegetables.
i don't really expect ppl to openly talk about their disappointment in their dicks
Oh, just watch me.
I voted for "my dick is perfect," but NOT AT ALL because I actually believe it's perfect. It's just that none of the other options seem to apply. Not well enough, anyway, or not anymore. And there are no agnostic options.
i wish my dick were longer - Maybe? Sometimes? Not as a matter of practical function. I suppose I wish it were more of a show-er, but who gives a shit?
i wish my dick were thicker - Maybe? Sometimes? Not lately. I suppose I've had a poor fit or two, but never so much that it was a real problem. No, I'm ok.
i wish my dick were shorter - No. I do not wish this. Never even occurred to me, not in all my days of ownership of my dick.
i wish my dick were more narrow - see above
i wish i had foreskin - I have wished that before, but I can't remember why anymore. Novelty, I imagine.
i wish i did not have foreskin - (left blank for obvious reason)
i wish my dick was shaped differently - Again, never occurred to me. It's dick-shaped.
i wish my dick had a different curvature - Technically that's part of the shape, but I know what you mean. And no. It hits everything it needs to hit, with a little careful angling. Same as any dick, I assume.
my dick is perfect; it grants wishes - Like I said, I voted this. Maybe because my own wishes (I can't speak for anyone else's, as much as I'd like to) are only to have sex that directly involves my dick, reasonably frequently, with lots of intimacy and mutual satisfaction, and if possible, startling amounts of semen. The semen seems more amusing to me than anyone else. All the rest of it is the result of collaborative effort. I do not (any longer) imagine that my dick is solely responsible for much of anything. It's mostly just happy to be there.
i wish i did not have a dick - I do wonder sometimes if women are as pleased with the plumbing they ended up with as I am with mine, or if they curse it. It's a meaningless question, I guess. But a pussy certainly seems a lot more trouble. It has a much longer, much more complicated, and often more baffling set of instructions, that's pretty obvious. The only thing I really envy, I suppose, is not having to try NOT to cum. I mean, I suppose there are times when a woman would like to hold out longer, and make it all last, etc, but the female orgasm is never the cause for apology that the male orgasm so often is. That might be nice. It's still not a trade-off I would make, though.
Here's the terrible truth about my dick: it is perfectly average in every way. Size-wise, I've measured it to the micron (a good while ago, but I'm pretty sure that's one of those things that doesn't change), and in both length and circumference, it's within the most popular range on just about every chart. It has the usual angle of curvature. It's circumsized, as per usual in this country. It has no unusual features and no extraordinary behavior. I suppose there are times when I wish it were harder, or that it wasn't in such an all-fired hurry, but none of that is my dick's fault. I suppose there are also times when I'm proud of it, when it's accomplishing the job of being a dick with the admirable discipline of a goddamn Marine, but that's not really about my dick, either. It's a pretty textbook dick, as far as I can tell. Kinsey would yawn and look at his watch.
But here's the other terrible truth: even though I know that my dick is just fine, and even though I am pleased to have such a perfectly average, perfectly useful, all-purpose dick to call my own, it's far from feeling "perfect," because I always wish it were extraordinary. I don't know how, exactly, but somehow. I understand that no one but me (ok, a comfortable majority anyway) particularly wishes this. I know that it's impractical and probably juvenile to want my dick to be anything other than it is. But I'm not... QUITE... happy with it. Even while I'm totally ok with it.
So not only is my dick fairly unremarkable, so is my relationship with it. I suppose some have a stormier relationship, more of a love/hate thing maybe, but my dick and I have settled into a comfortable, pleasant-enough-for-most-purposes, usually pretty dull lifelong commitment.

But a pussy certainly seems a lot more trouble. It has a much longer, much more complicated, and often more baffling set of instructions, that's pretty obvious.
Ha what? I've never thought of it as 'trouble.' The main disadvantages are:
– Menstruating: Assuming you live to 70-80, this lasts only half yr life anyway. I'm lucky in that it's never really a painful or burdensome thing for me, tho I know this is not a universal truth among the post-menses pre-menopausal set. Anyway, I like getting my period because it is a precious gift that means I havent been curse with:
– Pregnancy: The burden of preventing this is largely on women (IMO). By which I mean except condoms and (the permanent) vasectomy, most forms of birth control are made for/the responsibility of women. But since none of the dick wishes are 'I wish it did not impregnate anyone,' this is off topic, basically.
So the main troublesome things I can think of are reproductive, not sexytimes.
OTOH I think the main reason ladies' privates are complicated is they're not out there, generally unseen without effort on the woman's part. I always thought this was the advantage! I mean I never took eighth grade Boner Hiding Lessons but what do you do when the thing goes sproi-oi-oing when you don't want it to? That's got to be a damn pain! It's harder to be in touch w/that IF you don't have your penis, the compass, to guide you BUT I think society doesn't really encourage women to recognize when they're aroused, or share info on how to know when one is.
wangs!
― cosmic abbigong (Abbott), Sunday, 16 August 2009 02:00 (fourteen years ago) link
but what do you do when the thing goes sproi-oi-oing when you don't want it to?
Try to think of ANYTHING BUT sex. But when you're younger (i.e. eighth grade), it might not even have had anything to do with sex in the first place. Sometimes it would just go sproi-oi-oing against your wishes for no good reason, usually as the most inopportune times.
'I wish it did not impregnate anyone,'

I'm thinking the connotative difference btwn "penis," "dick," and "cock" is roughly analogous to the difference btwn "breasts," "boobs," and "tits." So that "grab my boobs" sounds about as silly/un-sexy as "put you dick in me." It can be a dick when it's just this generic thing that dudes all have, but when its Wonder Twin powers are activated, it's definitely a cock.

I think the incidence of this falls off sharply after about age 20. I mean just the random, no-reason-whatsoever stiffy. I guess it still sometimes becomes turgid at inappropriate moments, like if I fall asleep on the train or something, but there's always a reason.
When I was a kid, I used to get a church stiffy. Like, almost every Sunday, iirc. Still don't know what that was all about. Maybe one of the reasons I don't go to church anymore.

Well, that varies, doesn't it? I am told that the really formidable 8"-and-above dicks don't get as hard or have the vertical lift, simply because the body isn't willing to spare all the blood required to fill it to capacity. I wouldn't know. It doesn't sound like extra fun for anybody, though.

Two things I have found that help ensure maximum hardness: 1) Be fully hydrated. Not having enough water in your body is what "whiskey dick" is all about. (That, and maybe you have found yourself in a weird, alcohol-dependent situation with someone you don't even want to be fucking.) Sometimes I get a bit of whiskey dick without the whiskey. Just sweating a lot and not drinking enough water will do it. I really hate summer. 2) Keep your heart and circulatory system in top shape. This is one of the many reasons I need to quit smoking. But even with the smoking, I always stay harder, last longer, and have a generally better time when I've been eating well, sleeping regularly, and exercising. It sounds obvious, but I'm always surprised.

It's patchy in the UK, dependant on when you grew up rather than which part of the country, but I remember that when I was eight our class were shown a series of films which went into conception, pregnancy, and childbirth in full detail.
yeah that doesn't happen here
Basically, there's a girls-only sex-ed bit that talks about periods and how you aren't dying when you get yours that gets shown around 6th grade (age 11-12) and then in high school there's "oh look, STDs!"-style sex ed; the actual mechanics of reproduction are either taught to you by your parents or you learn it as a side-effect of taking life sciences in junior high.

No wait I call those little garbage things for tampons in the women's bathroom stalls "rag bags" so maybe it didn't work.
Why is it so squicky for parents to tell their kids about sex in terms that are age-appropriate but not completely baffling? Why so nervous? Why such a heavy conversation?
I made fun of Britishers and their library hard-ons, but boy howdy, we have enough sex issues to go around in this country, too. And go around they do.
― or have I become completely absurd? (kenan), Monday, 17 August 2009 19:44 (fourteen years ago) link
mmm, OK. In the UK is is/was like this (please bear in mind I am lol old)
age 8/9: Biology and reproduction of plants, then animals, followed by human anatomy, leading up to several classes specifically about human reproduction, including the aforementioned sex ed film series. Mostly covered in science classes, but some is covered in special lessons and what are called now PSE classes (Personal & Social Eduction, the short period straight after afternoon registration).
age 10/11: Review of above material. Then small (half a dozen pupils) single sex classes (boys only classes and girls only classes) with a health visitor, who explains some of the more lurid details (erections, periods, wet dreams, body odour, body hair, etc.). Also this small class is where the girls get their "tampon talk".
age 12/13: Review of all that material again, plus more stuff about emotions, relationships, families, etc.. Some schools do the "tampon talk" again just for the girls.
age 14/15/16: reproduction is covered again in GCSE science classes.

the actual mechanics of reproduction are either taught to you by your parents or you learn it as a side-effect of taking life sciences in junior high.
I didn't really get it in jr. high, either, but then again I didn't learn a whole lot of anything in jr. high. I was preoccupied, at least in part by trying to find my dad's Playboy stash. (Happy ending to that story: I eventually did. The girls were all very shiny.)
The actual mechanics, or at least their full implications, I learned from David Attenborough. No I'm not joking. I knew about penises and vaginas long before then, and how girls get pregnant, all that stuff. But it wasn't until Attenborough told me that ferns -- FUCKING FERNS -- make sperm, and that those sperm require liquid to travel to their destination, did it all really click. "Holy shit, this is bigger than I ever imagined."

Ferns and moss are the only plants with water-transmitted sperm, which is why there aren't that many species of them. They rely on external fluids, too, which is why you only find them in wet environments. Most other plants just shed sperm everywhere (lol hay fever is all the sperm in your nose) or by getting it all over some or another animal. Fungi & bacteria & prokaryotes don't have sperm either! </biology pedant>
