It is well known that the penis is the most important organ for sexual activity. Many people are curious about penis size and thickness. This topic often creates confusion among young men, and many even become worried about it.
Let us inform our readers that the average length of an erect penis is about 6 inches, and its girth (circumference) can be around 4 inches. The size or thickness of the penis in a relaxed (non-erect) state doesn’t matter much. However, different men have different abilities when it comes to how much their penis grows or expands when erect. This also depends on the level of sexual arousal at different times.
Every person has a limit to how erect or aroused they can get, but even before reaching this maximum level, a man is capable of having successful intercourse. If a man is mentally disturbed, anxious, or very tired, he may not be able to reach his full level of erection. Similarly, if someone has low sexual energy, fear, or hesitation about sex, then achieving full erection or length is not even a question.
Interestingly, even though most men have shorter penises, a caring wife usually doesn’t give importance to this or may not even realize that her husband’s penis is shorter than others. However, prostitutes or women with multiple sexual partners often taunt men about having a small penis size. Still, very few men take such comments seriously. But many men, unfortunately, keep worrying about this supposed “flaw” in their body and let it affect their mental peace.
Nowadays, it is seen that penis size has become an obsession for young men. I frequently receive messages on this topic. I try to respond scientifically, although it’s not always easy to explain.
When boys are young and see each other naked while bathing, or hear older boys joking about penis size, they become sensitive and conscious about the length and thickness of their own penis from an early age.
Such incidents often come to light where, even though a man has a particularly long and thick penis, he faces many difficulties in satisfying his wife sexually.
What Is the Average Penis Size? Truth Based on Scientific Research by Sexologists
According to surveys conducted so far by sexologists on this subject, the natural length and thickness of the penis have been determined as follows:
- In an erect state, a penis length of 6 inches and a thickness of around 4.25 inches is considered normal. Many men are found to have a penis length of 7 inches, and sometimes, even lengths of 8 inches or slightly more are also found. Just as penises measuring 7 inches or more are found, similarly, lengths between 4.5 inches to 5.5 inches are also common.

It is very important to measure the penis size correctly. The length should be measured from the pubic bone to the tip of the glans (head of the penis), and the thickness should be measured by taking the girth approximately one inch below the tip of the glans.
After measuring hundreds of men’s penises, two sexologists, Dr. William and Mrs. Vagina E. Johnson, mentioned in their final report that the longer a flaccid penis is, the less proportionally it grows when erect. That means shorter flaccid penises increase more in length when they become erect. For example, a flaccid penis of 3.5 inches can become 5.5 or 6 inches when erect, while a 5 or 6-inch flaccid penis only reaches about 6.5 or 7 inches when erect.
According to the above research results about penis length and thickness, size becomes a concern only for those men whose penis does not grow beyond 3 inches even when erect. This is because a penis that is 3 inches or more in length when erect is capable of fully satisfying a woman during intercourse.
It is important to note that, according to research by sexologists Johnson and Masters, during sexual arousal, the length of a woman’s vagina increases from 1 cm to 3 cm. Before arousal, the vaginal length is around 3.5 cm. When a woman is sexually aroused, her vaginal length increases to about 4.5 to 6.5 cm. This means that even a man with a 4.5-inch erect penis can fully satisfy a woman sexually.
Only the first one-third part of the vaginal length from the opening is sensitive, and this part is known to provide maximum pleasure during intercourse. The part of the vagina that gives a woman the feeling of orgasm is longer than 2 inches and starts from the vaginal opening. In this case, even a penis of 3.5 inches length can easily reach this depth.
A man with a 6-inch erect penis can fulfill his wife’s or partner’s desire for deep penetration in a satisfying way. Similarly, a 7-inch penis is also comfortably acceptable to a woman during intercourse. However, a penis that is 8 inches or longer can cause discomfort or pain to a woman during sex.
The conclusion of the above explanation is that an erect penis with a maximum length of 7 inches is sufficient and capable of providing a woman with complete sexual satisfaction. A penis longer than this may cause discomfort or pain during intercourse. Therefore, it can be confidently said that the size and shape of the penis do not play a major role in a woman’s sexual satisfaction.
A penis only needs to be long enough to stimulate the sensitive area inside the vagina. Just like the tip of the penis (glans) is sensitive in men, women have a sensitive zone inside the vagina, which lies in a circular area 3 to 4 cm deep from the vaginal opening.
Any lack of length or thickness in the penis can be effectively managed through various sexual positions. As mentioned earlier, even an erect penis of 3.5 inches can easily reach and stimulate the sensitive area inside the vagina. However, both men and women often mentally desire deeper penetration for greater pleasure during sex.
This desire can be fulfilled by using specific sexual positions. To educate readers and help fulfill this desire, here are some recommended sex positions:
Missionary Position (Basic):
If the woman lies on her back on the bed with her legs spread and the man is on top, only two-thirds of the penis will enter the vagina.
Knees Bent Position:
If the woman bends her knees and keeps her feet flat on the bed, the penis will penetrate 1 to 1.5 inches deeper inside the vagina.
Legs Toward Chest:
If the woman brings her bent legs up to her chest, the penetration becomes even deeper.
Feet on the Floor Position:
If the woman lies in such a way that the soles of her feet touch the floor while lying on the bed, the penis can go very deep inside the vagina.
Facing Each Other (Woman on Top):
If the woman sits facing the man, with her legs spread across his thighs, maximum depth of penetration is achieved. But for this, the woman must keep her upper body straight. If she bends even slightly, deep penetration reduces.

In this position, a 6-inch long penis can enter the vagina in such a way that the intense sensations may cause the woman to feel faint or overwhelmed with pleasure.
Even a penis measuring 4 to 4.5 or 5 inches is capable of giving a woman satisfying sexual pleasure. In fact, even a 4-inch penis can completely fill the vaginal canal.
Deeper Penetration Through Different Sexual Positions
While many sexual positions result in deep vaginal penetration, not all of them provide the intense sensation or deep satisfaction that some people seek. One such famous position is known as Dhenukasana, which is known for offering deeper intimacy and increased pleasure.
What is the 'Dhenukasana' Position?
In this position:
- The woman supports her body with her hands and bends her knees.
- The man kneels behind her, between her spread legs.
If the woman’s buttocks are not too large, the man’s penis can enter the vagina deeply.

Another Variation of Dhenukasana
Here’s another form of this position:
- The woman lies on a low bed in a way that her legs rest on the bedframe.
- The man stands between her legs and she spreads them wide.
- Once the penis enters the vagina deeply, she brings her legs closer together.
This allows for a deep and tight vaginal penetration, resulting in greater sexual pleasure for both partners.
Deep Penetration in a Chair Position
Another effective position is:
- The man sits on a chair.
- The woman sits on his lap, facing him.
- When the man spreads his thighs and pulls the woman closer, it results in very deep penetration.
This closeness enhances the depth and intimacy of the act.
Table Position for Better Entry
If the woman lies on a table that is at the height of the man’s hips:
- The man stands between her legs.
- The woman raises her knees slowly and places one foot over the other on her stomach.
- This helps in achieving deep vaginal penetration.
Ultimate Position for Maximum Penetration
One simple method for full penetration:
- The woman lies on a table of proper height.
- She places her legs on the man’s shoulders.
- The man holds her waist tightly and penetrates her deeply.
This position allows maximum depth and close physical contact, leading to enhanced mutual satisfaction.
Side Sitting Position for Deeper Intimacy
Another variation involves:
- The man sits on a chair, slightly leaning forward.
- The woman sits sideways on his lap so that her shoulder faces him.
- One of her feet remains on the floor, while the other is lifted onto his thigh.
This position also allows for deep vaginal entry and greater intimacy.
For Men Worried About Penis Size
Men who are concerned about having a small penis should try these positions. They will soon realize that:
- A small penis can also provide successful and satisfying intercourse.
In many cases, these positions lead to more intense pleasure than what even a larger penis might offer.
