It's probably already been said, but the person on the "receiving end" of the penis (LOL) is always going to have a "skewed" view of the actual size. Things always look bigger when seen closer up. PLUS, memories of actual events are almost always different from what actually took place. I've learned from my own experience to never trust the past memories of a womans sexual encounters. I'm 7" non bp with a girth (most of the shaft from just above the base to an inch from the glans) of 6.25". Even when I had under 6" of girth...from 5.25" or so to 5.75", I got "youre big, youre huge, youre the biggest I've seen, THAT MUST BE AT LEAST 9"!", etc. Women are just funny that way. And many of them due to their own insecurities about their bodies, or out of fear of losing you, or just to try and hurt you, or mess with you emotionally/psychologically, will tell you things like "youre smaller than so and so.....or youre big, but so and so was thicker....or "my last boyfriend was as long as my forearm and as thick as my wrist"....I always found "thick as my wrist" statements very amusing, because most women have VERY small wrists...usually in the 5"-6" ranges.
