Many women say that size doesn't matter. As far as I can see it does- and those women who say it doesn't are lying to protect their partners- or are just plain stupid! I talk to three women who give their opinions:

Emma Bong, 23 a student | Helen Best, 34 a solicitor | Jennie Larke, 27 a Bank Clark



Q. Do you think British men have the smallest penises in Europe?
E Yes, unfortunately I do. I think Italian men totally live up to their reputation as stallions. I was on holiday there last summer- oh my word!

J My first reaction was yes, but actually the biggest penis' I have ever come across were in Ibiza, but most of them were English- so no I don't think so.

Q. What do you consider average?
H It's weird because what I think is average, maybe small or large to someone else. I think it depends on who you have slept with and how many. But I'd say 6-7 inches was about right.

E I totally agree. I think the average I've seen is about 7 inches-, which is probably quite large. I think that too many people get hung up about being average. What is average? I mean does it exist? Furthermore, who wants to be average?

J I would say that the average is 7 inches. But smallest is a lot smaller at about 4 inches, and the largest is a lot larger, at about 9 inches.

Q. Do you rate size?
J I do completely. It is as simple as that. The bigger the better. Men with small penis' just aren't as satisfying as larger men. For some reason I don't find them as sexy or manly.

Q. Yeah, but how can you tell- with their clothes on?
H Aaaahhhh, it's all possible with a well-trained eye. After following certain circles for a while it's easy to spot. There are certain give a ways. You often see certain tell tale signs. Like a flash car- maybe a bit cliched, but it's true they often are compensating for something.

Q. Have you ever had a great lover whom wasn't particularly large?
H No

E An O.K one I guess but nothing special

J An average one I suppose- but as we said who wants to be average?

Q. So no one with a small penis has ever satisfied you?
J It just isn't as simple as that. Yes someone with a small penis has satisfied me, but I personally want more, I need more. Sex is a whole experience, which needs to be complete- small genitalia just don't come into the equation.

Q. Do you like penises ? A lot of women are repulsed by them.
E I am repulsed by small, wimpy little things. But a hard, large thick penis is the sexiest thing in the world, nothing gets me going more. They make me feel so horny and in the mood.

J I don't particularly like penis'. I do think they are a bit ugly. But there is a big difference between a small penis and a large one

H I totally agree- there is something really powerful about a thick penis- it almost reminds me of an electric screwdriver.

Q. Some people say it's what you do with it that counts?
H Bollocks! It is up to a point but no you can't do it with a really small penis full stop. No satisfaction what so ever- doesn't even touch the sides.

Q. What are your opinions on Natural Penis Enlargement Pills?
J I think they are fantastic. I totally support them and respect all the men that have have used them to benefit them. I have never met a man who has admitted to me that they have used them- but then I guess that is no surprise, but I bet I have slept with a few who have- good on them. I think these such men are more flexible in their love making and can last longer.

H I think they are fab. All men should try it at least at a basic level, because not only does it enlarge your penis, but it also improves you staying power apparently and that means that we get a much more intense orgasm, which will probably last longer I also think that men with more muscular penises have more control over themselves which is all ways a bonus if nothing else.

E This is the first I have heard of it- but yeah from what these two have said it sounds great.

Q. So in conclusion size does matter?
H I think I can speak for all when I say; Completely and utterly. I don't mean to give anyone a complex- but I know that most men would like to think they were amazing in bed. You are lacking one major thing if you don't have a large, thick penis. If you do have one naturally then you are blessed- if you don't then you should do something about it.
