  • I know this. And the insecurity is still perpetuating the myth that bigger is better. Take buddy's comment in response to me claiming that women like big dicks. What a silly, untrue, blanket statement to make. Of course it makes guys feel superior to one another if they (think) have a big dick. They think that my bigger they are more manly, and that women will find them more sexually appealing and that they can satisfy a woman better than a man with a "small" one. Again it comes down to a security issue, and the need to feel superior. Its an easy ego boost at the end of the day. Our society conditions men to think that bigger is better. Look at most male porn stars they are hung like horses. Then you have those ads late at night for "male enhancement" products. Those ads always have some woman in them claiming how much better her sex life is since her partner has been using the products. The ads will claim that you will have a better sex life and be over all more desirable to women in general. Society created the myth and men perpetuate it by buying into all the hype and nonsense because they are conditioned tom be insecure about their manhood. And instead of seeing things for what they really are and talking to real women about what "better" actually is and realizing that size really isn't that big of an issue, they they just continue the vicious cycle of low self esteem and emasculation because it is just easier to give into society's bullshit than to think outside the box.

    The exact same thing goes for women who think that bigger breasts are automatically better. Again the media and society perpetuated this myth and when you have bigger breasts of course it will automatically boost your ego and make you feel superior and more sexually attractive to men. These women are again, not willing to think outside the box and realize that not all men like big oversized breasts. But, once again, it is easier to give into the hype than to think outside the box.

    My point is all this silly "bigger is better" thinking could be eradicated if more and more people opened their eyes, realized they have been brainwashed by the standards set for society by the media, and realized that just because they don't always meet those standards doesn't mean there is anything wrong with them or that they are unattractive.

    So yes I do understand EXACTLY, I think you my friend, didn't stop to ask...WHY the idea of a big penis (or breasts) is an ego booster to begin with.

    • I like you! You think like me, this all makes perfect sense to me. I put a lot of thought in this type of thing far to much as it is, such as gender roles, gender stereotypes,social norms etc..I sat here for an hour thinking of this more trying to cater an answer to what the root of this idea is, and every time I could trace it back to something in either my shorter or your thorough reply. This question is already answered. Everyone wants a full happy life. What is happiness to you? What you want for yourself or what your told you want.

      • Thank you :)

        Happiness for everyone should be what they want for themselves of their own free thinking mind, not based on whatever programming and conditioning they have been subjected to throughout their lives. Sadly, only a handful of people really know how to step out of that zone and question the messages that are put out their.

        The greatest freedom any person can ever have is the freedom gained by not caring what other people think. This is the first step to true fulfilment in life.

        I always tell people to follow their bliss whatever it may be and not to give a rat's ass what anyone thinks at the end of the day. The second you stop caring about what other's think of you and the way you are the second they lose power over you and that's the second you reach true self liberation.

        When it comes to body image more men and women need to start shedding and letting go of what they have been conditioned to think is attractive as deemed by society and should not base their worth as a man or woman by those ridiculous standards.
