I'm a man when I was in prison, i found size does matter, at first the bigger ones hurt, they man handled me, then after you get used to it, you don't want a girken, one had a pecker so small, he was going to town like he was the energizer bunny he sure was enjoying himself, a man has to have something.
Ummm, sorry you were in prison...but I'm confused about something, are you saying you enjoyed it after awhile? Or did you have to get used to it?
And how the hell would I know if size matters.....all I can say is when I complete a degree in "manhood measurement studies" I'll get back to you

Indian Men: Smaller Condoms Please
By Tracy Stokes, BET News Staff Writer & Wire Services
Posted Dec. 12, 2006 – Indian men, who fall short of what condom manufacturers concluded as standard sizes, are finding out that one size really doesn't fit all.
A two-year study by the Indian Council of Medical Research, involving more than 1,000 volunteers, found that most of the men had penises one inch shorter than condoms designed to meet international size specifications.
Complaining that the average condom is just too big, the council says that the men in India, which has the world's highest HIV positive caseload because many are too shy to ask for condoms, are now calling for smaller condoms.
The issue is serious, the council’s Dr. Chander Puri told Reuters, adding that about one in every five times a condom is used in India it either falls off or tears.
"Smaller condoms are on sale in India. But there is a lack of awareness that different sizes are available. There is anxiety talking about the issue. And normally one feels shy to go to a chemist's shop and ask for a smaller size condom," Puri said.
Sunil Mehra, the former editor of the Indian version of the men's magazine Maxim, told the BBC that most Indian men aren't trippin' about not measuring up.
"It's not size, it's what you do with it that matters," he said.
German penises 'too small for EU condoms'
Germany has demanded a rethink on EU guidelines on condom size after finding its average penis did not measure up. Doctors around Essen were ordered by the government's health department to check out the average size suggested by Brussels. They reported the EU has overestimated the size of the average penis by almost 20% and insist other countries will discover the same.
Urologist Gunther Hagler, head of the team compiling the research, said: "By checking hundreds of patients we found German penises were too small for standard EU condoms. "On average they were 14.48 cms long and 3.95 cms wide. That makes them much smaller than the EU standard condom size of 17 cms in length and 5.6 cms in width." He denied the German man was any smaller than the rest of Europe, adding: "We think the EU has got its sums wrong, and if other countries were to check out their men's assets they would find the EU has made a mistake in its calculations.
"There should be a rethink and the EU statisticians should check their figures again. After all, they have also ruled EU standard condoms should be able to hold 18 litres of fluid without breaking, which also seems a bit excessive."
