TOPIC: PhalloBoards should change its name to PMMABoards

Honestly I'm not sure what you're getting at. I've been a big proponent of the 'if your Dick is remotely average DO NOTHING'. If I had your size I wouldn't have thought about PMMA or any surgery for one second. But I had issues with my Girth. It was something I wanted to change and PMMA had the highest success rates at the time so I went through with it. Do I regret it? Now that I'm married, I do worry that I could run into an issue 20 years down the road, but I made my decision and I have to live with it. That's why I think a temporary solution is a better idea. Unless of course there's something that has a 100% success rate which would never happen.

So yes I agree that if you have a somewhat average penis you should probably do nothing. But if you feel that you NEED to change it, then scour the forums, and make an educated decision. For me, at the time, most people were finding success with PMMA. In 5 years it could be something else, but we'll have to cross that bridge when we get to it.

I was hoping to ask you a rather personal question, in reference to what you touched on above.
Do you think you would have got married if you haven't of had PMMA?

I've been around on this forum for 3+ years and i can tell you that the community is pretty mature (S.O., moderator team and users) and i've always seen a very conservative approach to the matter: whatever decision you make, deeply inform yourself first(except for proved bad procedures, like E. implant). I've seen people (specially our beloved Hoddle) discouraging impulsive or not necessary decision to go through surgeries, but at the same time supporting the people who decided to take the plunge, through their journey (including sending supplies and phone calls to people who have gone through very bad times after PE procedures). I've never seen people over-enthusiastically recommend this or that procedure (except obvious shills of course). About PMMA. I think it's mostly discussed because: a) Time. When it came out it was probably the best option and currently it's still one of the best when done by expert surgeon (namely dr.C). It's not like HA, Ellanse or other fillers were out in 2010, or at least not used for PE. Most of the other options were outdated inherited from the 90's. I've read thousands of pages on this forum through the years, and it seems to me that in the last 2 years Dr.C. technique has improved to a level where i can't remember bad outcomes or severe collateral effects. That's good for who wants to go that route. Also, i don't know if you are born in 1994 and thus quite young, but keep in mind that not all the people here are in their 20s and it's not like they can wait the next best best option. b) Cost. Yeah, it's not elegant talking about money, but let's be real , not everyone can afford to put 8-9k $ in his penis every 2 years. c) Conveniency. The permanent part. Having to deal with dissolving products isn't doable for quite some people it seems (and i agree with them). Because you'll probably keep obsessing about your penis and having to making excuses with partners (if they don't know about it). As some people have pointed out already, you probably don't get the full picture since you have an above average penis and , as you said, don't want it to be bigger. Penis dimension can become an obsessive thought, be it for dismorphobia or having an actual below average penis. I've read multiple times people reporting that their life have overall improved after they have enlarged their penis and got over the obsession. Sure you can find it silly, but that's a thing. About other options. To be honest i think that within 5 years, stimulatory fillers like Ellanse will take the scepter, cause they seems to have the best qualities of both worlds: 1) filler itself is temporary 2) stimulates neocollagen production, so you got permanent gains of your own tissue. I'm oriented to get something like that in the future, mean while still studying/reading updates. Again, the most important part is to make informed decisions. This forum give some means to do that.

That's an interesting question, and I've thought a lot about it. I think just because of the type of person I am, a relationship guy, I would be married sooner or later. I didn't want a bigger penis because I wanted 1,000 conquests or anything. I just strive to be the best version of myself, whether it's fitness, work, etc. and it came down to the fact that I didn't think my penis was adequate for the perfectionist I am. I also had some bad relationships where I chalked up the end of the relationship to my penis size. In retrospect it most likely had nothing to do with my penis.

So long answer short... I'm satisfied with my penis now, and I'm happy that I'm married. I know my wife enjoys my penis now, and I think she would've enjoyed the original version too, but maybe not as much? I definitely have some extra confidence at this size though.
