Is it just coincidence that I tend to think of ideas for this column while I'm in the shower?
During tonight's shower I came up with a theory of sorts, something to explain men's preoccupation with their cock size. Yes, one of the things that women have wondered about for ages. Now, I understand. It all makes sense once you consider their need to know numbers when it comes to a woman's body too.
How many times have you been asked for your measurements, your bust size, your weight, height and so on, right down to the length of your hair. Yet, have you ever heard of a woman asking a man for his measurements? Not me. Why is this?
I have a theory about that too. (It was a long, hot, steamy shower).
Men understand what those numbers mean in relation to a woman's body. Women on the other hand, have no idea. Not that we are ignorant, hardly! But, a man can be tall and weigh 200+ pounds and what does that really mean. Is he muscular or chubby? Men's weight gives no clue to their physical build. So what is the point of trying to figure out the numbers. None!
If you tell a man you prefer a 6. Does he assume you are talking about feet or inches? That was something else I thought about while soaping up my various curvy parts. I like a 6, a six footer. What do the inches matter, who sees those anyway?! No, much more impressive to have a 6 footer on your arm. Everyone can see a nice tall man. No one will ask him to open his pants and show his inches.
I think that works in reverse too. Men like women with big boobs cause they show. Other men can see those DD cups and drool over them, but not touch. Other men can penis envy him so he can strut around like a proud cock and it doesn't matter about his actual cock. Hope you are still on the same page here. By this time the mirror was pretty fogged up and I couldn't even see myself to think.
I think it's one of my best theories yet. But, who knows what will come up in tomorrow's shower.
