    Bit rude so avoid if you are a prude. Got this through spam today: "90% OF MEN HAVE A SMALLER THAN AVERAGE PENIS - ARE YOU ONE OF THEM ?" Paul: Oh no! 90%?!?! God, I thought I might be average, but 90%? That is a lot! Where's their number.... Oh wait a minute... how can 90% be below average? Surely the average would reflect the 90%? So if 90% had 7inches then fine, 90% can't be below average, right? I don't mind clever spam, but stupid spam is just sad and a waste of time for everyone.

      It's possible if, e.g. you and 8 other pauls, have a measely below-average useless unsatisfying laughable 7", and I have a proud strong womanizing 7.1". Avg = (9*7 + 7.1) / 10 = 7.01" > 7". So what the stats say is that a bigger-than-avg occurs more often than a smaller-than-average.

                  What I want to know is how is it even possible for anyone to have figures like an average penis size. It's not like they are measuring and recording the size every time you visit a doctor: Nurse: "Let me just take a few measurements: Your weight? Height? Penis size?"... :eek: And it's not like you can trust any kind of survey on the subject they can conduct... I mean, how many people can you expect to be completely honest about this... :~ :)

Well boys are boys and I can name a couple of times I have walked into the locker room after rugby practice to find the jocks measuring each other. Apparently it is important to them, like a contest. And yes, the most shudder worthy part was they certainly were in states of arousal, no good measuring a non-aroused WMD. Thankfully none of them liked me, the feeling was mutual, and I just went and used the other showers. Debs wrote: So who carries the clipboard for the statistics?? What a job! How would that get described on a CV?? There is a special interest programme here in South Africa called Carte Blanche, and one episode they were on the subject of swinging. And there, on TV, was the Measurement Queen. I kid you not. She would go around to the homes of men who wanted to join the swingers club and measure them to see if they could get in. :| People do odd things. Their life, but it is still weird.

                            If 90% of men have a "smaller than average penis", wouldn't that mean that the "average penis size" is smaller than they think? And who got the job to determine average penis size? And why don't we ever hear about "average vaginal depth"? ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

                                If 90% of men have a "smaller than average penis", wouldn't that mean that the "average penis size" is smaller than they think? And who got the job to determine average penis size? And why don't we ever hear about "average vaginal depth"? ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

Probably because we are not obsessed by it, not like we are about our WMD length. Also because we are not allowed to say stuff like that about women. After all the fight for equal rights is not what it is about.

                                    I've got an old bigfoot forwarding address that now also gets far too much spam to be useful, so I forward that into an email account with an autoresponder that gives a message that hopefully a vaguely inteligent human could understand in order to get in contact with me, but not something an automatic bot could do I've just discovered I can set my old ntlworld account to autoforward too, so I'll send it into the same spamtrap account, and see what happens..

                                          Incredible, isn't it? I couldn't believe it too, I have had to check that three times on the Net, but it seems it's true. So sad, the date I've got for the 39th of January is probably a bad joke. :((;) Whatever.
