Hello everyone, I’m Dr. Chu Hsin Cheng, a specialist in penis enlargement and girth-enhancement surgery.

Today, let’s talk about how to correctly measure your “penis.”
In this age of social media,
a good-looking photo can convey a lot.
Here are a few photography tips to help you take dick pics that look natural and alluring.

The quick takeaway:

(1) Trim your pubic hair
(2) Wear attractive underwear
(3) Push the fat at the base back with your hand
(4) Wear light-colored, thin-fabric underwear

Understanding penis anatomy

First, let’s review the structure of the “penis.” It has three main parts:

1. Glans: This is the most sensitive part and is usually covered by the foreskin. If you’ve been circumcised, it is often exposed, making the penis look larger.

2. Shaft: This is the part you can see, and it determines the “visible length.”

3. Root: This part is embedded beneath the skin near the pubic bone, and many people overlook it. The length of the root that is visible is related to the amount of fat around the pubic bone. The more fat there is, the deeper the root is buried, making the penis look shorter.

How do you measure your penis length and girth?

To measure the length of your “penis,” press the ruler against the pubic bone and measure all the way to the base.
※ Flaccid length: This is affected by many factors. For example, the penis naturally shrinks when it’s cold. This is completely normal, so there’s no need to worry.

※ Erect length: This is mainly determined by the length of the erectile tissue, which is relatively constant.

※ Glans or penile girth: Find the widest part and wrap a flexible measuring tape around the penis to find out its girth.

What is the average length in Taiwan?

According to a British study, Taiwanese men have an average erect length of about 12.5 cm and a girth of about 12.6 cm, while average flaccid length is about 6 cm. The global average erect length is 13.9 cm.
Another study by the Taiwan Association of Andrology found that Taiwanese men have an average erect length of about 12.4 cm and an average erect circumference of about 10.9 cm.

Tips for taking good-looking dick pics

1. Cleanliness matters: Whether or not you’re circumcised, remember to clean up before taking photos. Smegma can make a photo look unpleasant, so keeping clean is essential.

2. Use a phone stand: Want a steady, clear photo? Try using a phone stand! You can adjust the angle whenever you like to get the best shot.

3. Find your angle: The camera angle can change everything! Try different angles to find the best way to show yourself off. Experiment with different poses—you might discover a surprisingly good look.

4. Add a reference object: Want to make the photo more interesting? Add an object for comparison, such as a soda can or a bottled drink. This makes the size contrast more obvious and can improve the effect.

5. Trim your pubic hair: To make your “penis” stand out more, trim your pubic hair or even shave it all off. This creates a cleaner overall look and highlights the shape of the penis.

6. Your hands can do the trick: Gently push the fat near your pubic bone back with your hand and lightly hold the base. This can make the penis look longer. It’s a simple trick that can make a dick pic more visually striking.

7. Wear attractive underwear: You don’t have to be completely nude for a photo. Light-colored, thin-fabric underwear can naturally show your outline. A subtle hint of what’s underneath can be even sexier, and branded underwear can highlight your sense of style.

Choose recipients carefully and protect your privacy

Before sending this kind of photo, be sure to choose the recipient carefully. Sharing it with a partner or trusted friend to build intimacy is fine, but sending it indiscriminately to strangers could cause problems. At best, you might get blocked; at worst, you could face legal issues. Be very careful, respect other people’s privacy, and protect your own.
