A Can of Shaving Gel
Canadian Lurker mentioned in the comments to our Two For Tuesday – 65 post “I have been lurking for 8 months and I’m dying to finally know… just how big is that penis? You always tease us, but really though, get the measuring tape out and show us!” Longtime readers may recall when I mentioned in item #13 of my 25 Sexual Things About Us post that “when fully inflated, my dick is about the size of a can of Edge shaving gel”. This has usually been the analogy I used when talking about the size of my dick. Sometimes the comparison has had very humorous results. In the comments to my How Big Is Your Little John? Post I related the following anecdote.
I worked with this woman who was “curious” about the equipment. She had a hard time visualizing, so, finally, I told her “about the same size and a can of shaving cream. Not the short fat ones; but the taller, thinner ones like Edge [shaving gel] comes in.” She said “I’ll look the next time I’m at the store.” And we started discussing something else. Apparently, she checked that evening because she came into my office the next day about 8:15 with an “offer” for me. She was at least 10 years younger than me so I was flattered but still politely declined.
Apparently “about the same size as a 7oz can of Edge shaving gel” is not quantitative enough for Canadian Lurker. I’ve never been terribly concerned about the size of my dick but since, California Girl and I are on vacation, we though it would be fun to have a measuring session. We don’t need an excuse for sex but I did seem like a fun way to spend the morning before we headed out to the stores for some CHristmas shopping.
I didn’t have any 7oz cans of shaving gel so we used a 9.3oz can instead. It’s a little bit longer but it should still give a pretty good idea of scale.
California Girl preparing my dick to be measured. This was the best way we could think of to get me ready to be measured.
California Girl measuring the circumference of my dick. Her hand is in the way but it’s about 6-inches around.
California Girl measuring the length of my dick. It’s about 8-inches when she measures it that way.
Measuring the circumference of a can of shaving gel. It’s about 6½-inches around. Slightly larger than my dick.
Measuring the length of a can of shaving gel. It’s about 8½-inches long. Once again slightly larger than my dick.
Comparing my dick to a can of shaving gel. I think the comparison is pretty accurate. What do you think?
I hope this post answered the question. And, if not, it was still fun to do. 
Maybe I’ll take California Girl’s measurements tomorrow.
um, fyi, you said the can, that doesn’t include the cap
so it’s a lot closer than ya think
(i’m too analytical)
I have never measured Mr SD and he doesnt know his measurements either. Size has never really mattered to me but know you have me curious. I’m off to find a measuring tape hehehe.
Ms SD
Takes my breath away.
You know, of course, that you’ve just inspired the sale of a lot of cans of Edge gel for private measuring sessions.
Hmmm, as someone who enjoys research – this seemed really fun. I too am thinking of getting my measuring tape out. Now all I need is ….
I’ll never look at a can of shaving cream the same again!
Exile: I always think of cans with caps on them. The 7-oz can is almost a perfect match.
Ms SD: OA measuring session is a lot of fun. Size doesn’t matter but it’s a great mini adventure while you are both home for the holidays.
Enjoying the view: Thanks. I’m flattered.
Semi-Celibate Man: I never though of it that way. I just have always used Edge so it was the firs thing to come to mild as an analogy years ago.
Rosie: It was great fun. It’s a fun way to proposition the appropriate person. I’m not sure how well it would work on someone new though. Probably would get me slapped or worse. But I have known some women …
Chickie: So is that good or bad?
Looking for similar comparisons should we decide to emulate your posting, Emm suggests a VIC inhaler. She has a cruel streak.
california girl is more woman than I’ll ever be!
California girl sure has her hands/mouth full. with you around. Happy holidays.
Alfie: That is kind of a cruel joke. But it really matter what you use for comparison; a measuring session is still a lot of fun.
Richard: Hopefully that is a good thing. Happy holidays to you too.
Kitty: We fit together pretty well, and it’s good to have a husband who doesn’t worry about whether his dimensions are adequate!
OK…so normal morning routine is wakeup, shower, and think about what needs to get done today while I’m shaving. This morning, after reading this yesterday, it looks like this…wakeup, shower, pick up the shaving can, think “HOLY CHIT”, reach for the Vicks inhaler and weep !! Even if I change brands from Edge, my morning shave won’t be the same !
Love the posts…have a great holiday.
CinciReader: I wasn’t trying to ruin your morning shaving experience. It was all I could think of that was about the right size years ago when I wanted to use a common household object for comparison. Have a great holiday yourself.
it’s absolutely amazing.. I am so glad you did this because I have been curious to see a side by side comparison!! I know of an interesting blog you should post that picture on.
Happy New Year! can’t wait to see what 2007 brings
Dianne: It was fun. That’s why we have our photo sessions. The finished product may or may not be the best but producing them is always enjoyable.
So where do you think we should post the picture? You’ve got me intrigued.
Thank you so much, the both of you! Excellent pictures. They turned us on so much!
Note: Your dick is huge… but measuring from the end of the balls… is that allowed??? hah, just joking, glad you had great holidays, keep up the great work!
Canadian Lurker. You are welcome. I didn’t measure from the end; I started closer from the middle. But no, it’s not allowed. It’s just how the photograph came out since I didn’t have any 7oz cans. Look the next time you are in the supermarket. It’s almost an exact match size wise
