Honest to God, I know you aren't going to believe me , but five inches is incredibly normal. The average penis is between five and six inches- and that's what most women expect. As you can tell from some of the response, ,most women don't care. I know the porno movies make guys feel bad by using guys with ten inch penises in them-- or you get all kinds of ads through the internet encouraging you to improve your penis size because women will love you then-- but all of it is hype and not a real picture of either what men look like or what women want.  Yes, some men look large when they are flacid and some men look really really small- but the differences when erect are far less impressive.
  The reality is if you are a confident lover- and really listen to what your partner says she wants- she will be extremely happy with you. You have to believe that- it's true! So what you need to concentrate is on self confidence, learning to listen to what your partner wants, and forgetting about size. It will not only make you crazy and insecure- there really isnothing you can do except surgery-- and that would require putting something artifical ( like a pump or insert) in the penis. It would be very expensive-and you would lose some sensation..  It was developed for men who were hurt by wartime injuries- not to make someone just a bit bigger. let go of this notion- and love the body you have-. You will be happier- and your partner will be happier when you are feeling good about yourself.

Sorry but you have to learn to be happy with what you have. There is no mircle growing cure out there.

Don't worry about the size -- it doesn't really matter.  What matters is what you do with it and how your partner feels.  It's normal for a guy to feel concerned about their size, but five inches isn't small.  To be a good lover, be sensitive to what your partner responds to.  Be creative -- there are lots of hot things you can do in bed -- so learn how to please a woman, and you will end up a confident lover.

My fiance is 8 1/2" and to be honest there are lots of times I would prefer him to be smaller!! A bigger penis isn't the answer to fulfilling a womens sexual needs. I know girls how couldn't take bigger than that! Find love and enjoy. Stop worrying about your size.

Dont worry about it hun, I think that's average size, and believe it or not women dont necessarily preffer "huge" guys. Size is not what it's about. Just be confident with what God gave you and have sex like you invented it and you'll be fine;)
