penis

It's not the size of the boat, but the motion of the ocean. Even so, men might be able to upgrade their canoes to midsize speed boats. According to a new review of medical literature, nonsurgical methods of penis enlargement work.

Studies confirm most men seeking lengthening underestimate the size of their members compared to the average. Those looking to give nature a boost anyway do have options. Penile extenders, which stretch the penis, are the most effective, adding as much as an inch (you'll have to undergo six hours of daily pulling for four months to get the best results). Surgical procedures, however, are dangerous and have a seriously high rate of complications.

As for the Austin Powers-endorsed penis pump, it's effective to a degree. It can't elongate the penis, but it does offer psychological satisfaction to users.

I've only been seeing "Tim" for a short while, but he's a great guy: smart, sensitive, talented, and with a sex drive high enough to rival my own. There are two little problems, however.

One is that he has a hard time (oh, what an unfortunate choice of words) getting and maintaining an erection. The second is that even though he possesses one of the smallest members I've ever encountered (and I don't judge — I swear. I've never been a size queen), I recently discovered that he buys XXL condoms. WTF?! Putting his obvious delusions of grandeur aside for the moment, the too-big prophylactics concern me due to their poor fit and thus poor reliability

Without totally destroying the poor boy's ego, how do I address the fact that his penis is not nearly as large as he must think it is, and that it would benefit both of us for him to consider trying Viagra or Cialis or some other ED medication? Also, while he more than compensates with his mouth and hands, should I even bother continuing to see a guy if he can't leave me sexually satisfied?

Sarah Silverman has a theory on why male genitalia makes audiences chuckle comfortably, while the female counterpart makes many of us — including her — cringe. When Vanity Fair asked her to name three funny things about vaginas, she said the word speaks for itself:

"Oh my God. I think just the word, the kind of instant uncomfortable factor. I think penis and vagina should be equal comedically, but they’re not. And it probably has something to do with how penises are external and dry and like an arm or an elbow. And vaginas have a whole situation — they’re like. Oh, I’m grossing myself out now. You know, like, labia majora, labia minora. Pubes."

She sure makes a persuasive argument. The potty-mouthed comedian has a new book out tomorrow, with a bathroom-themed title: The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee. In addition to her involuntary urination issues and vaginas in general, Sarah discusses her battle with depression and her comedy career. Would you like to read it?

"I know now what it’s like to be a woman because I now have to say during a conversation, ‘Hey my eyes are up here!’ They don’t even know that they are doing this. They look at me like they would someone on TV – ‘No actually I can see you too, this reality thing goes both ways.' "
