I was having a surgery on my leg once in China (local anesthesia) and my Willy was hanging out in the freezing cold operating room. The doctors were discussing my surgery in Chinese, not knowing that I also speak Chinese. One of them commented on my chilly Willy, “They’re not that big.” I asked him in Chinese how big his was when it was cold. He was really embarrassed and apologized. The other one thought it was pretty funny.

Thank you for this video. I am a grower. When erect I'm average length, about 6 inches. But flaccid it's very small, about 2 inches. So in the locker room I always felt self-conscious about it. I've gotten used to it so it doesn't matter now, but seeing that most guys were not as small as me flaccid did make me feel uncomfortable when I was young. I would even show my girlfriends how much it would grow from flacid to fully erect and they would be surprised. Oh well. Just adding to the conversation. Thanks for the video doctor, very interesting info.
I think a lot of men feel embarrassed when they are a grower vs a shower and I know I was but as I got older I realized many showers really did not have big ones when erect vs growers that where bigger and thicker when erect. So if you are a grower be happy knowing you are more than likely to be bigger than the showers that like to show off.

@isitsafe Ha ha ha nah not always! But it is good to know that it still works! The joke here in Mindanao Cebuano is that it's a "banakon" ("king cobra") if erect and "itoy" ("puppy") if not.

@@nileshghadge5016 It is in her professional practice, but I am applauding her for putting it all out there on social media. That's a whole different arena and I am simply recognizing how she handles it with grace, professionalism, and accessibility. Not sure where your derision arises from, but it's not important.
I was a grower when young. Once I hit my late 40's and put on too much weight, and developed hypertension and kidney issues, it changed to shower. Such is life.
I have since lost some of the weight, managed my hypertension successfully with meds, but the kidneys remain a problem. Still a shower now, and probably will be for life, what remains of it. At least I'm happily married, and have been for decades, and have a bunch of adult children that are starting to have kids of their own. Circle of life. Happy trails.
For me personally, I’m a grower. I’ve noticed that when I lose all my weight and get my 8 pack abs, It’s true, eating healthy and weight control gives you a lot of benefits to knowing how you hang. In hot, or hot humid weather is better for a natural hang compared to winter where you don’t. It’s like, hey! where did my friend go? 🤔
@Wayne Jorgensen Exactly. I’m sure you already know there is plenty of benefits to be fit and trim. You look and feel so much better, and you have more energy to do more things. I love women, and it definitely helps in that department. Good luck guy! 😃👍🏼
I dived into this section just to try and find some comments from Seinfeld, and I wasn’t disappointed. Lol. Awesome channel Rena, keep up the good work.
@@Chadblake1 Yes, I'm a grower so he's big enough when he needs to be, but otherwise it's actually a problem. Even washing him is a problem as I'm uncut.
As a grower, with a very significant difference, I've put quite a bit of thought in this. After all, thought experiment is the first step in a hypothosis. I've spoken to a few male friends about it, and while the sample size is only about a dozen, I have found some commonalities. The guys I asked that had genetic heratige to warm climates (Mediterranean, African, Iberian, Persian) tended to be "shower"s. Guys who called back to mostly cold climates (Russian, Scandanavian, Polish, Northern North American Natives) were universally "grower"s. The first thought I have is that natural selection may have played a part (sperm heat death vs. frostbite) and secondly, I realized just how diverse the group of geeks is that I hang out with. Small sample size, under hearsay protacols, but, maybe food for thought. Needless to say, I fall into the north climate group.
I'm BLACK , guess I would fall in the african heritage category and i'm NOT a shower. Still a cool statistic nonetheless and its great u have a nice diverse group of friends.
Just to add to the discussion as well, I would be curious to see a study done about how happiness affects erections, because for me personally, when I'm depressed, my erections are a full quarter smaller than when I'm happy, all other factors being the same. It would open up a lot of questions about the relationship between happiness and body positivity and vice versa, that's for sure
Ive had this issue recently, im not sure if its a mental thing but thats my best guess. Because im young, and in good shape. But my head to head connection if you will has been a bit shaky recently. I can get hard no problem, but not fully. Even during sex, and during sex i lose even more erection if im in control. Hopefully its just a mental thing ill get past, because its affecting my sex life and drive atm
Just came across this video and I’m glad I did. I am a grower (didn’t even know about that term) and I’ve always felt insecure about my flaccid length.
I always tell people I leave the big one at home, and I just bring the "travel size" one when I go out. It's enough to get a grip for urination, and it fits better in my trousers.
Yes !! I was on a church bus back in the 1970’s and this girl kept wallering all over me . The bus driver wanted me to go to the door and invite the kids to church . Talk about embarrassing . There was no way I was going to those peoples house with that ax handle in my britches and in bite them to church . Ugh ! That was rough!
Thanks Dr. for your kind and warm delivery of these awkward questions . I don’t know if I’m weird or what , but I can shrivel to almost an inch when real cold or stressed ( I’m normally 3” or 4”). and then when aroused get to a little over 7” . I’ve measured this a lot so no mistake . That’s growing almost 7 times my maximum shrinky dink .
It is so amusing to see the doctor refraining from laughing when using those sexual colloquialisms! I just can't remain serious when I see her doing that and the immediate video editing.
I think I tripped on this video just in time and thank you for this. I never thought in a million years a woman would talk about this with a straight face so on that much respect!. I mean dam I remember going to a hospital when I was barely in my twenties almost knocked out and hearing a doctor say poor guy was not blessed while putting a catheter in me then hearing the nurse laugh. When I woke up my brain was a little under stress. Now in my late 40's I am going into surgery for my knee and after watching this I think you have rested my soul a little bit. I remember when I was young as well and already had what appeared to be ed.But a nurse filled me in and said it was mental probably for many reasons.I believe she was right considering all the hoops dudes gotta jump through these days over time it does take a toll on ones mental state. Especially when I have to hear women say what is that? my ex was as big a red bull can limp and thats not really a turn on!. So these days I just stopped dating,sex,pretty much all of it.I was raised in a family that believed in marriage and love for me at age 46 I have seen none of that and it just got old. When I look back though I do remember a few girls nicknaming me turtle and say dam you always surprise me but I was pretty young then.Anyways thanks for resting the old mind a little.
I grew up terribly self consious about my penis size when flacid. This was mainly an issue if showering in male showers and some could be quite mean with their comments (early school years). I never had an issue around the ladies as I was erect and it was above average length. I never knew there was such a thing as a shower/grower distinction until my late fifties! Suffice to say I never had any complaints from the ladies and have two kids to prove all was well :)
I had a co-worker one day say, i may not be well endowed but it was long enough to make 2 kids ... I say the same thing, my penis may be only 5.5 inches long or 6 inches when she teases me before sex, but those 5.5 inches was long enough to make her pregnant 🤷🏽♂️
I don’t know about the rest but; there seems to be varying levels of ‘flaccid” to me. Some days or even times, temps, moods…whatever “it” can be pretty small and shriveled and then it can also have times where it’s quite a bit longer and thicker but still flaccid. Maybe we need shower and grower designations for flaccidity based on environmental factors?
Same. Mine goes from thimble to me wanting to wave it out of the window to show everyone. I’ve noticed though if I’m wearing baggy underpants I’m usually happy with it but when I wear more snug garments it assaults my pride.
I really only notice a drastic difference if I'm at the gym mid really heavy set and need to go to the bathroom, it acts like it's super cold and it's just odd to me.
I think that's how it works, honestly. I've had moments where it's super small flaccid (as opposed to regular small flaccid). I don't mind that at all either. Not sure why anyone would want a bigger barely useful tool.
I'm a grower going from 1-2 flaccid depending on temp to bang on 6 when erect. Never had complaints from women. Been told it's rock solid and feels great but it hindered me in my teens when it came to shower time at school or rugby
Same here from 1" (in the frigate cold, less then 1/2") to almost 7" but still felt completely inadequate when flaccid as a young kid since all the other kids would point and laugh (being called baby dick comes to mind). Unfortunately the stigma can still makes me feel a "little" inadequate at times, knowing if someone's sees it flaccid, they tend to laugh or think I'm not really a complete man. Wish I would have known more information about these conditions growing up, since all the "showers" in the locker room loved to stand next to me and point to make sure I felt like less of a man.
I think the compliment that'll stick with me the most about mine was this usually savage ass gay guy who's a size queen and even told me I give shit head said that I had a nice looking dick.
I am sort of a super grower. Ive always been self-conscious about it in the locker room because soft I am like 2 inches, but hard I am close to 7 inches. Its actually crazy its like blowing up a balloon. Ive never seen anyone else as drastic as that.
The study only included a small number of men with ED, there have been some surveys that indicated that 80% of men are growers. All of this is less than satisfactory research, but it's what we've got
Hah! In my youth the terms I heard were "danglers" and "retractors." Being a retractor (grower), I never knew about danglers (showers) till experiencing the middle-school locker room. I felt inadequate until someone told me that showers don't grow much so both groups are the same when erect. That made me feel better.
I remember there being an article about this in my sister’s Cosmo magazine. I was probably 8 or 9 when I read it, so, as a grower, it probably helped me subconsciously growing up.
I'm 52 and have been a grower all my life, going from about 1.5 inches flacid to about 6.25 to 6.5 inches when erect. When I was younger in my teens and early 20'S I felt inadequate do to what was in adult videos and magazines, but later learned that I was of average endowment and focused on technique rather than my size to satisfy my partners and have not received any complaints since.
I've been a grower my entire life. Most women would be like "it's so small when you aren't hard." A minute, and 6.5" growth later, their attitude completely changes. lol
Most if not all my ex gfs were so amazed at the difference from flaccid to erect. I use to fear the day a woman would say I’m small but it all changed later on when I was 20. 22 now gonna be 23 this Saturday and I never had been told I’m small or anything negative. And I love the reaction I would get from how it starts to erect. It feels good to be a grower brothers 😌
I feel like we’re exceptions because mine starts tiny like 2 inches and ends up around 6 inches it triples in size easy. That study she mentioned doesn’t seem to support that’s even possible
I'm a grower👍🏽... kinda sad that i lost 1 of my testes 😩, i haven't been reaching the lengths i could reach📈 but i'm still reaching lengths that puts me as average, for that i am grateful 🙆♂️
I didn't know I was a grower until I heard the stats and measured myself out. I go from noticeably undersized in the show state (1.5-2.5") to genuinely oversized in the grow (7"). But yeah, it really depends on things like temperature, time of day, etc. Never felt any awkwardness about it, but I'm surprised at what an outlier I am.
About the Same here , I'm a lean machine 140lbs, but almost 8" depending on circumstances, health, blood flow , mentality ect. Never had any complaints except im too long
Yes I've heard of this third category. Not a 'grower' or a 'shower', but a 'nowhere'. In all seriousness though, there's no need to stress about it, cause the vast majority of a woman's pleasure nerves are just barely inside along the top. I've found that most of them experience pain from too deep of penetration, and can actually prefer just the first inch or two as it specifically stimulates that area. You've been given all you need, just don't go for huge women, and focus on your process.
I walked in on a conversation about this that some gals at work were having and there was a comment made about what the first thought was that went through their head when they saw a guy with a huge bulge and the general consensus was "OMG what if he's a grower?!"
Grower's equipment is more sophisticated. It's a bit complicated to operate, and maintain. But for practicality, it's really nice. Small compact when not in use, but fully operational when needed.
I realize that Dr. Rena is providing us with excellent professional content, yet the whole time I watch I keep being amazed at how beautiful she is. She seems to be exceptional in every way a woman can be exceptional!

Thank you, Dr. Malik! Not only good to know, but interesting to learn about the relative lack of studies on the subject.
Being a grower show's your partner they are turning you on when you start to grow. Happy growing everyone.

I've been fascinated by this subject for years, but ultimately came to an understanding that it all about taking care of oneself. As long as it works, you're good! It's all about creativity with the right person.
Happy to see you and listen to your speech ❤
Well, I'm glad to know I'm still a "grower" even though I'm 67 years old! Also, I watched your video on having to stop the urge to urinate at night and how to stop it with my Kegel muscles. It works!! Thank you!! I love listening to your knowledge and advice with your wonderful "bedside manner!!"
When she talked about age affecting your ability to grow i got a little worried. What is your experience? I don´t mean the ability to grow at all, but the erect size. thx
I thought guys that age could not maintain an erection
@@klouisville8760 A lot of that depends on the degree of attraction to your partner. Being married and faithful to the same woman for 30 years can become a little mundane. It’s just natural.

@@TheYamahog12 weird how the brain works.. when we get older and we see a young woman in her 20s mid 30s.. in some of us, the brain triggers a response of pleasing her will let to seem more masculine etc etc
These vids are awesome! There's a lot of BS about the whole pelvic area floating around and it's nice to have an actual doctor explain the stuff that's going on down there.

Grower here. If I ever thought about becoming a nudist, it is this fact that kept me from being one. I didn't want to walk around all the showers looking like Papa Smurf only to become blatantly obvious around the pretty ladies. Who's with me?

Interesting to know the study behind it. It's good to see factual videos from qualified individuals.
Even at age 65, I'm still a grower. There is a big difference between the length and width of my penis between flaccid and erect. I'm also happy that I often wake up with an erection because I understand that this means good cardiovascular health, important at my age. Thanks Doc for your video!
What, you wake up fully erect?
That's crazy,must be uncomfortable
@isitsafe Ha ha ha nah not always! But it is good to know that it still works! The joke here in Mindanao Cebuano is that it's a "banakon" ("king cobra") if erect and "itoy" ("puppy") if not. Tagalog speakers use the slang term "ibon" ("birdie"). Quite funny! There's even a 1997 comedy song called "Don't Touch My Birdie"!
Bro u really talk like a 65 year old guy
how long is it when erect sir Geoffrey? has there been a reduction in size at your age?
@@nav4688 About 16 cm. No reduction in size.
Dr. Malik, I love how you don't shy away from any "icky" subject! I especially like how you discuss everyday, normal topics that a lot of people don't discuss in polite conversation!!!
That's literally her job 🤦🏻♂️🙄
@@nileshghadge5016 It is in her professional practice, but I am applauding her for putting it all out there on social media. That's a whole different arena and I am simply recognizing how she handles it with grace, professionalism, and accessibility. Not sure where your derision arises from, but it's not important.
I was a grower when young. Once I hit my late 40's and put on too much weight, and developed hypertension and kidney issues, it changed to shower. Such is life.
I have since lost some of the weight, managed my hypertension successfully with meds, but the kidneys remain a problem. Still a shower now, and probably will be for life, what remains of it. At least I'm happily married, and have been for decades, and have a bunch of adult children that are starting to have kids of their own. Circle of life. Happy trails.
Get your health right... Live for those grand kids it's still reversible... discipline yourself and commit... You got this💪🏾💪🏾
I love this lady!!! Thank you Doc for all the knowledge you keep posting up.
For me personally, I’m a grower.
I’ve noticed that when I lose all my weight and get my 8 pack abs, It’s true, eating healthy and weight control gives you a lot of benefits to knowing how you hang. In hot, or hot humid weather is better for a natural hang compared to winter where you don’t. It’s like, hey! where did my friend go? 🤔
@Wayne Jorgensen
Exactly. I’m sure you already know there is plenty of benefits to be fit and trim.
You look and feel so much better, and you have more energy to do more things.
I love women, and it definitely helps in that department. Good luck guy! 😃👍🏼

I used to always wonder about this without knowing how to verbalize it. Thank you ma'am.
Useful video. Lots of boys, teens, men need to hear this.
I enjoy being a grower. Nice and out of the way when not in use, and always a pleasant surprise when the situation arises...total sleeper weiner.
I don't enjoy it. Sometimes going to pee can be a real pain because of the (lack of) length. I'm even forced to sit and pee some times.
😬🥴 lol

@@Lukomeyan haha! Seriously?
@@Chadblake1 Yes, I'm a grower so he's big enough when he needs to be, but otherwise it's actually a problem. Even washing him is a problem as I'm uncut.
This is way she's the best urolgist.Thanks doc.
As a grower, with a very significant difference, I've put quite a bit of thought in this. After all, thought experiment is the first step in a hypothosis. I've spoken to a few male friends about it, and while the sample size is only about a dozen, I have found some commonalities. The guys I asked that had genetic heratige to warm climates (Mediterranean, African, Iberian, Persian) tended to be "shower"s. Guys who called back to mostly cold climates (Russian, Scandanavian, Polish, Northern North American Natives) were universally "grower"s. The first thought I have is that natural selection may have played a part (sperm heat death vs. frostbite) and secondly, I realized just how diverse the group of geeks is that I hang out with. Small sample size, under hearsay protacols, but, maybe food for thought. Needless to say, I fall into the north climate group.
That all makes great sense. In cold weather and especially cold water things tend to shrink back up inside.
I have a genetic heritage to a warm climate and I’m definitely a grower
I'm BLACK , guess I would fall in the african heritage category and i'm NOT a shower. Still a cool statistic nonetheless and its great u have a nice diverse group of friends.
Hey Chris it’s nice to have a survey-type mind. And a cooperative group of geeks!! LoL
Interesting...
Big salute to Dr Malik, she is funny at the same time very intelligent and an excellent presenter - definitely rare people knows shower and grower
Just to add to the discussion as well, I would be curious to see a study done about how happiness affects erections, because for me personally, when I'm depressed, my erections are a full quarter smaller than when I'm happy, all other factors being the same. It would open up a lot of questions about the relationship between happiness and body positivity and vice versa, that's for sure
I found nicotine patches cause Ed.
Higher testosterone may be the cause of your better mood and erection. Cortisol the stress hormone suppresses testosterone.
Do you regularly measure your penis? Enough to assert statistical analyses correlated with emotional influence?!
Lack of sleep also seems to effect it too.
Ive had this issue recently, im not sure if its a mental thing but thats my best guess. Because im young, and in good shape. But my head to head connection if you will has been a bit shaky recently. I can get hard no problem, but not fully. Even during sex, and during sex i lose even more erection if im in control. Hopefully its just a mental thing ill get past, because its affecting my sex life and drive atm
Just came across this video and I’m glad I did. I am a grower (didn’t even know about that term) and I’ve always felt insecure about my flaccid length.
Grower here. Sometimes I feel like Doc Brown when he shows Marty the Delorean for the first time . . . . . . "watch this."

I always tell people I leave the big one at home, and I just bring the "travel size" one when I go out. It's enough to get a grip for urination, and it fits better in my trousers.
Best thing I read all day. My go to is " it's little but it's cute..."
Love your channel. Well done on covering topics men are afraid to ask.

Same here, I still remember having to use my math book while going to the chalk board
Yes !! I was on a church bus back in the 1970’s and this girl kept wallering all over me . The bus driver wanted me to go to the door and invite the kids to church . Talk about embarrassing . There was no way I was going to those peoples house with that ax handle in my britches and in bite them to church . Ugh ! That was rough!
Thanks Dr. for your kind and warm delivery of these awkward questions . I don’t know if I’m weird or what , but I can shrivel to almost an inch when real cold or stressed ( I’m normally 3” or 4”). and then when aroused get to a little over 7” . I’ve measured this a lot so no mistake . That’s growing almost 7 times my maximum shrinky dink .
For some reason that always seemed to happen when I was in class.
Came for the comments. Did not disappoint. Anyone else notice most comments are from ‘growers’? That algorithm knows you better than you think 😂
It is so amusing to see the doctor refraining from laughing when using those sexual colloquialisms! I just can't remain serious when I see her doing that and the immediate video editing.

"It's shrinkage!"😆🤣😂

I think I tripped on this video just in time and thank you for this. I never thought in a million years a woman would talk about this with a straight face so on that much respect!. I mean dam I remember going to a hospital when I was barely in my twenties almost knocked out and hearing a doctor say poor guy was not blessed while putting a catheter in me then hearing the nurse laugh. When I woke up my brain was a little under stress. Now in my late 40's I am going into surgery for my knee and after watching this I think you have rested my soul a little bit. I remember when I was young as well and already had what appeared to be ed.But a nurse filled me in and said it was mental probably for many reasons.I believe she was right considering all the hoops dudes gotta jump through these days over time it does take a toll on ones mental state. Especially when I have to hear women say what is that? my ex was as big a red bull can limp and thats not really a turn on!. So these days I just stopped dating,sex,pretty much all of it.I was raised in a family that believed in marriage and love for me at age 46 I have seen none of that and it just got old. When I look back though I do remember a few girls nicknaming me turtle and say dam you always surprise me but I was pretty young then.Anyways thanks for resting the old mind a little.
I grew up terribly self consious about my penis size when flacid. This was mainly an issue if showering in male showers and some could be quite mean with their comments (early school years). I never had an issue around the ladies as I was erect and it was above average length. I never knew there was such a thing as a shower/grower distinction until my late fifties! Suffice to say I never had any complaints from the ladies and have two kids to prove all was well :)
Should have called em out for looking
I had a co-worker one day say, i may not be well endowed but it was long enough to make 2 kids ...
I say the same thing, my penis may be only 5.5 inches long or 6 inches when she teases me before sex, but those 5.5 inches was long enough to make her pregnant 🤷🏽♂️
I can grow from 2” to 7”. Had a girl pick at me one time. She seen me soft.. that grin she had vanished after the grower showed up! True story
Bullshit buddy lol
@@BackFireZz not necessarily, I’m the same measurements before and after. No anecdotes though.

I don’t know about the rest but; there seems to be varying levels of ‘flaccid” to me. Some days or even times, temps, moods…whatever “it” can be pretty small and shriveled and then it can also have times where it’s quite a bit longer and thicker but still flaccid. Maybe we need shower and grower designations for flaccidity based on environmental factors?
I don't really have that much variation exceptwhen it's really cold. I am actually happy that it is very compact when i need it to be.
Same. Mine goes from thimble to me wanting to wave it out of the window to show everyone. I’ve noticed though if I’m wearing baggy underpants I’m usually happy with it but when I wear more snug garments it assaults my pride.
I really only notice a drastic difference if I'm at the gym mid really heavy set and need to go to the bathroom, it acts like it's super cold and it's just odd to me.
I think that's how it works, honestly. I've had moments where it's super small flaccid (as opposed to regular small flaccid). I don't mind that at all either. Not sure why anyone would want a bigger barely useful tool.
I believe the terms "semi" and "half mast" come into play there.
I'm a grower going from 1-2 flaccid depending on temp to bang on 6 when erect.
Never had complaints from women. Been told it's rock solid and feels great but it hindered me in my teens when it came to shower time at school or rugby
I feel you on that I had to make myself get hard before I show them or send a picture 😂🤣😂 good old days man
Same here from 1" (in the frigate cold, less then 1/2") to almost 7" but still felt completely inadequate when flaccid as a young kid since all the other kids would point and laugh (being called baby dick comes to mind). Unfortunately the stigma can still makes me feel a "little" inadequate at times, knowing if someone's sees it flaccid, they tend to laugh or think I'm not really a complete man.
Wish I would have known more information about these conditions growing up, since all the "showers" in the locker room loved to stand next to me and point to make sure I felt like less of a man.
Same bro, that's what the ladies tell me about my two inch punisher 👊
I think the compliment that'll stick with me the most about mine was this usually savage ass gay guy who's a size queen and even told me I give shit head said that I had a nice looking dick.
Similar proportions and embarrassments here, you get older and realize how stupid and frivolous it was to be embarrassed about it
I agree with you 100 percent
Amazing information and awareness and knowledge
I am a grower, I got teased as a young man but I just said have you seen how a horse grows well that is me. lol
I am sort of a super grower. Ive always been self-conscious about it in the locker room because soft I am like 2 inches, but hard I am close to 7 inches. Its actually crazy its like blowing up a balloon. Ive never seen anyone else as drastic as that.
🙋♂️
There's a few of us
That’s really normal
I’m like a grower 4inche to 9 inche I swear 🤣🤣🤣👌🏾
I go from 2.5 to just under 8 so I know what you're saying. I try not to let women see me in the smaller state just the end result lol
Up until fairly recently I didn't even know showers existed. I've always thought everyone was a grower. I can't believe I'm in a minority
For me it was the other way around, I thought everyone was a shower . God bless
This was me a few years ago realizing I was in the minority. 😂
The study only included a small number of men with ED, there have been some surveys that indicated that 80% of men are growers. All of this is less than satisfactory research, but it's what we've got
Very educative Thank-you
Hah! In my youth the terms I heard were "danglers" and "retractors." Being a retractor (grower), I never knew about danglers (showers) till experiencing the middle-school locker room. I felt inadequate until someone told me that showers don't grow much so both groups are the same when erect. That made me feel better.
Facts I think that’s true I’m shower I go from 6 to 81/2 never got any complaints. It depends on genetics
I remember there being an article about this in my sister’s Cosmo magazine. I was probably 8 or 9 when I read it, so, as a grower, it probably helped me subconsciously growing up.
I'm 52 and have been a grower all my life, going from about 1.5 inches flacid to about 6.25 to 6.5 inches when erect.
When I was younger in my teens and early 20'S I felt inadequate do to what was in adult videos and magazines, but later learned that I was of average endowment and focused on technique rather than my size to satisfy my partners and have not received any complaints since.
Damn right my fellow brother. I'm a grower as well. If women don't like it, I'm kicking them out haha.

Might you, by chance, be overestimating the size of your grower? Most men do.;)
6.5 not big bro...
Most if not all my ex gfs were so amazed at the difference from flaccid to erect. I use to fear the day a woman would say I’m small but it all changed later on when I was 20. 22 now gonna be 23 this Saturday and I never had been told I’m small or anything negative. And I love the reaction I would get from how it starts to erect. It feels good to be a grower brothers 😌
What changed? Did you have a late puberty or something?
👋🙌😉
How big we talking? I’m worried I might be small
I feel like we’re exceptions because mine starts tiny like 2 inches and ends up around 6 inches it triples in size easy. That study she mentioned doesn’t seem to support that’s even possible
I'm a grower👍🏽... kinda sad that i lost 1 of my testes 😩, i haven't been reaching the lengths i could reach📈 but i'm still reaching lengths that puts me as average, for that i am grateful 🙆♂️
I didn't know I was a grower until I heard the stats and measured myself out. I go from noticeably undersized in the show state (1.5-2.5") to genuinely oversized in the grow (7"). But yeah, it really depends on things like temperature, time of day, etc. Never felt any awkwardness about it, but I'm surprised at what an outlier I am.

It's what you do with it that counts. And Yoda says "Size matters not!" 🤗
Yes I've heard of this third category. Not a 'grower' or a 'shower', but a 'nowhere'.
In all seriousness though, there's no need to stress about it, cause the vast majority of a woman's pleasure nerves are just barely inside along the top. I've found that most of them experience pain from too deep of penetration, and can actually prefer just the first inch or two as it specifically stimulates that area. You've been given all you need, just don't go for huge women, and focus on your process.
I would qualify that as a shower since you have to show her where it's at. XD
I walked in on a conversation about this that some gals at work were having and there was a comment made about what the first thought was that went through their head when they saw a guy with a huge bulge and the general consensus was "OMG what if he's a grower?!"
I may be the most extreme G from what I read. Fellow men, don’t be down about this whatsoever. You perform a literal miracle all the time.
From an evolutionary perspective, growers have a better potential to survive due to the grower hiding and protecting itself from battle and accidents.
It also makes more sense in colder climates.
But today women have preference for showers, so growers will be eliminated due to natural selection.
