    @Mrsgurzakovic: YES!!!! To me size matters, of course. It is not the most important thing in a relationship but it matters. If a man is lacking in that area I really hope he makes up in other areas and is able to please his SO in other ways sexually.

    It matters but so does the girth.  If your shaped like a piece of spaghetti, long and skinny, that's no good either.  I would say the most important thing is knowing what to do with it.  Like they say, "It's not the size of the waves, it's the motion in the ocean".  So yeah, size matters but it is just one factor.

    @burris4: I love the spaghetti analogy.  I totally agree,  my FI is quite a bit smaller than I am used to.  It's all about finding positions that work for you.  (And lots of trial and error when trying new positions.  Go into it with a sense of humor, and no expectations).  

    I am going to say it matter some, but in the grand scheme of things, it is not a big deal.

    I think size does matter, but not in the way many men (and women) think. I personally have a, um... *ahem* short vagina, so anything longer than maybe 7 inches would be incredibly painful to work with. I think many women who think they've been with "huge" men really don't understand what an inch actually is, lol - the average size in the world is 5 inches, not 9 or 10 or even 7. Most women I've talked to about it have said that 5-7 is more than enough. If I remember correctly, the average vaginal canal is something like 6 inches, anyway (you can stretch a bit with proper lubrication/excitement).

    I think a sexual relationship can be healthy and exciting no matter what the endowment or lack-there-of.

    I just honestly don't understand the judgement of men on something they CANNOT control. It's not like guys can go to the dick store and buy a new one.

    It matters as much as the size of our boobs matter to you. A certain size might be nice, but we're happy with whatever we get.

    It does and it doesn't.  I mean, certain sizes are nice, but unless it is the size of a pinkie finger, it doesn't matter too much...

    do you guys think that if he lacked in that department and I mean like @cbee: said " pinkie finger" sized that its a good enough reason to leave him? Personally, I dont think its even a reason-- Cuz like we want our men to love us for who and how we are, we should except them the same way. Its all Gods blessings and we dont have any control on how it turns out to be. But Im curious if some girls think its a reason to end thier relationship? no one will judge! were all grown ups ;)

    @jocember: I agree. My canal is rather short aswell: unless I put my legs back even 6 inches pokes my cervix :S. 

    @Mrsgurzakovic:  It sounds like we're talking about here is a micropenis. The question you have to ask yourself is if it does the job. I need clitoral stimulation to orgasm so penis size is really not important to me. If you're satisfied with your sex life that's all that matters. If not... I would say figure it out (I don't think penis size is a legitimate reason to end a relationship).

    I apparently once got drunk with some new friends when I started my grad program, and though I have no memory of this I apparently gave a whole speech with the general topic of "size doesn't matter...unless you have a terrible personality..."

    Proportion and fit matters.  That and how comfortably is fits in you.  It's not about size, it's about here his member hits you on the inside. =) 

    It's never just about size. ;)

    I'm Goldilocks - looking for the one that's just right. I don't want one too big or one too small. Girth is more important to me than length.

    It does, definitely. I've been with a guy who was very small and it just physically couldn't hit the right spots; I've also been with guys who are so big it's painful.

    I think anyone who says size doesn't matter has had limited experience.

    Well it's not like I have a whole bunch of experience because I've only had sex with one other guy before my FI. But that guy was bigger than my FI, and my FI is way better in bed than the other guy was. But then again, obviously size is going to matter if it's on the extreme end of either large or small. Like anywhere within the "normal" or average range is doable. Haha.

    yes, size matters. Just like boob size mattters. if they're tiny it's usually not the best thing and usually an issue of insecurity for both parties. if they're huge it's usually a downer too. So really "average" is generally the preference.

    I have to agree that size matters, to a degree. I think a lot of guys have this misconception that women all want huge ones and I know in my case, that simply is not true. I prefer around average size and thick is definitely better than thin.

    @Mrsgurzakovic: Yes it does, to some people.  It really depends on how important sex is to you.  Some women will overlook a small man because he is good in other areas and/or sex is not that important. To others, where sex is top priority, it absolutely does matter!

    Size is one factor but ultimately skill can make up for short comings. I think there is a lot to be said for compatibility though and no matter what the size the guy needs to know how to use it.

    Yes - My best experiences have been with a longer girthier member than that of my DH.  I guess I am superficial because I couldnt make it in the long run with a "pinky finger" sized fellow. 

    My DH and I make it work fabulously together.  It's just not as errr...moving as it's been with others in the past.

    I honestly think it's incredibly superficial to leave someone you otherwise get along great with just because of penis size. I have a friend who stopped seeing a guy she really liked because she "felt the outline" of his penis and it was too small for her liking. She didn't even give him a chance to show that he knew how to use it well.

    barbie86Sorry, I have to completely disagree with your statement. I have lots of experiene and no, I don't think size matters. So he's got a small weiner... does he have a tongue? does he have fingers? Do you have a sex store nearby? My DH is technically "average" but smaller than my exes...but he knows how to give me orgasms I'd never dreamed of before I met him. 

    ETA: What I'm saying is, if you've got a guy with a big dick but that's all he's working with, then what good is that. Especially if he's like some of the guys I've dated who thought they were gods because they had huge penises. I once shouted "oh God" when my ex finally did something that felt good to me and he answered, "yes?" Check please, I'm done.

    Sexual compatibility matters, sometimes that has to do with size sometimes it doesn't it depends on the person. FI and I weren't that sexually compatible when we first got together but it was due to miscommunication and nervousness on my part(I thought he was really hot and was trying to impress him basically). Since sex is an important part of any relationship, if I was with a guy who completely could not please me and put no effort into trying to fix the problem then yes I would dumb him.....So in short size kind of matters depending on the situation.

    I agree with PPs - as long as it isn't teeny tiny or gargantuan...and he knows what to DO with it, all should be fine. :) FI is a bit on the larger side and we have to avoid certain things because it just doesn't feel good to me (stupid cervix).

    Oh, and wanted to add: I watched a special on a man with the largest penis (this thing was HUGE) and he like never got laid because obviously it never fit. Women dated him mostly just to see it. And the poor guy didn't get much in the BJ department either, just not physically feasible. So yeah, obviously THAT matters.

    I've actually said that to guys in the past who told me that they weren't well endowed. I was like "Uhhh, you got a tongue? (Yes.) And working fingers? (Yes.) Then you're good!"
