I thought inches didn't convert easily to decimal...?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I love that he’s rounded it to two decimal places. As if a woman would say, “7.7? That’s it?”

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (2 children)

yeah, there is no way the measurement instrument was precise enough to make that last decimal significant

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

He just wants to filter out all the women who understand sig figs because he can't handle dating someone smarter or more educated than him.

Also, if he was going to measure in fucking inches he should've just called it "3/4"

He measured on a heartbeat to ensure it was as big as possible

during high tide

I love that he included his penis size at all. As if a woman would say, "Oh finally, a man who is letting me know the important details I really care about."

His second message after saying "Hi" is probably a dick pic.

with the calipers to prove his measurement

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

And that's something like the 99.99999th percentile according to the chart on the Wikipedia penis size page - absolutely NSFW - which has nothing larger than 18 cm.

The apparently much less studied vaginal depth seems to max out at 14 cm before arousal, so I think it's safe to say most women wouldn't be impressed by that number even if it weren't an obvious lie.

Digital calipers use decimal inches rather than fractional. I’m guessing that was what he used to measure himself.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

I'm thinking he used his eyes and threw out a number that he liked.

After reading this, I want to convert his inches with my left foot

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This is one place where the metric system really shines. If I say I'm 6.5", it sounds like I'm desperate for that last half inch. If I say I'm 17cm, that's just what it is.

If I say I'm 17cm, that's just what it is.

If you're 17cm you would get steady work in Hollywood
