Why We Need to Talk About Size (Without Shame)
Firstly, thank you Stevo350 for your slightly derogatory — but undeniably intriguing — commentary on the struggles of being a “big-dicked man”. You are, unintentionally, the inspiration for today’s blog.
Genital size is wildly misunderstood. Men are often taught they need to be big to pleasure a woman, while women are taught — directly or indirectly — that their vaginas have some kind of maximum capacity, after which… what? They break? Retire? Submit a resignation letter?
In reality, penises and vaginas come in all shapes and sizes, and they are all capable of pleasurable sex. The idea that size alone determines sexual success is one of the biggest myths we’ve inherited from porn, comparison culture, and extremely loud internet opinions.
One thing I often say (and stand by):
The bigger the penis, the more limiting it actually can be in positions. If someone is very large, my body needs to be relaxed, supported, and positioned properly to comfortably take the full size. That’s not a flaw, that’s anatomy.
This blog isn’t here to shame anyone. It’s here to be educational, inclusive, pleasure-focused, and grounded in reality, not performance.
Let’s talk anatomy — calmly and honestly.
The average depth of an unaroused vagina sits somewhere between 5–12 cm. Once aroused, however, the vagina lengthens and expands. Estimates suggest it can reach 12–32 cm depending on arousal, relaxation, and individual anatomy.
This is called vaginal tenting and it’s a really important reminder that arousal matters. Arousal literally changes the structure of the vagina.
Comfort during sex isn’t static. It changes with:
Personally, I can accommodate a wide variety of penis sizes but with limitations. I usually need to start on top, avoid extreme folding in half, and have adequate lubrication. Rough sex with minimal warm-up? That changes the situation entirely.
And let’s be very clear:
Vaginas do not permanently change size because of partners.
That myth is absurd. If it were true, the vagina would be an entirely different organ by now.
Pelvic floor tone, arousal, relaxation, and confidence influence vaginal capacity far more than someone you slept with years ago.
Let’s bring this back to facts — not vibes.
Here are measured erect penis averages from global data (no ego inflation included):
Length, girth, angle, curve — all of it varies and none of it guarantees pleasure. Size does not equal skill, connection, or safety. Why “Size Matching” Is a Misleading Concept. The idea that there’s a perfect anatomical match is… not real. Bodies aren’t plug-and-play devices.
Penises can curve up, down, left, right. Vaginas can be deep-set, shallow, angled toward the spine, or sensitive at different depths. What actually creates compatibility isn’t size — it’s learning your body and learning how your bodies work together.
That learning takes:
Discomfort is often blamed on size when it’s actually about tension, anxiety, rushing, or feeling unsafe. The more “on edge” someone feels, the harder it is for their body to relax and the harder penetration becomes. If more people focused on arousal and checking in, rather than proving something, sex would improve dramatically for everyone involved.
Yes. Sometimes size genuinely affects comfort.
For example, during or close to my period, larger sizes are harder for me to take. I’m more sensitive. My body is more reactive. That’s not a failure it’s biology. We are humans inserting an appendage into another body. Of course there are times when it just won’t work.
Some bodies need:
Porn has done us no favours here. Sometimes fitting together takes time. Sometimes it takes patience, humour, reassurance, and communication. That’s not failure, that’s care and compatibility.
Let’s be crystal clear: Pain is not something you’re meant to tolerate for sex. Discomfort isn’t “just part of it”, and anyone telling you otherwise is deeply misinformed. There are many reasons sex can feel painful, including:
If sex is consistently painful, that’s information — not something to push through. Support from a pelvic health physiotherapist, GP, or therapist can be genuinely life-changing.
The best sex isn’t measured, It’s talked about. Open conversations about comfort, preferences, pacing, and boundaries create safety — and safety is where pleasure lives. Curiosity beats performance every single time. Sex is a shared experience, not a competition.
Confidence doesn’t come from numbers. It comes from:
Comparison culture has lied to us. Bodies don’t need optimisation — they need understanding.
Neutrality, acceptance, and connection will always outperform size anxiety.
So Stevo350, circling back to your point — yes, it’s entirely possible that a petite or Asian woman could comfortably handle a very large penis… and that outcome might have more to do with how you approach sex than with her size. At the same time, if we’re talking averages (and this is a very broad brush), it’s also worth considering whether you’re simply not choosing partners whose bodies - and needs — align well with yours.
Because let’s remember: women are human beings, not elastic props. Bodies need time, arousal, safety, and care to adapt. No one is designed to be rushed to their maximum capacity on demand.
Food for thought.
Til next time,
