Are you a shower or a grower? Would you swap if you could?

As the title says which category would you put yourself into. Are you happy with what you are or would you switch if was possible?

It will interesting to hear from both sides as I'm sure it will show most of us have insecurities no matter which side we are on.

I'm a grower and would definitely swap. I'd like to be more secure and confident.

I'd be willing to bet your confidence is pretty strong when it counts tho right?

Shower. Nice to have a bulge!

Healthyguy1 in reply to xsevenx

I definitely agree as I love to have that bulge too but would you change it to a grower if you had the choice?

I'd have to place myself in the shower category and I would probably swap to the grower side of things. Would be nice to have that extra bit when it's hard and ready to go. I can definitely see both sides positives and negatives.

Would you swap to a shower if you could or do you prefer being a grower?

definitely a grower would I change if I could ?. There my insecurities too old for change now

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

I don't think we are ever too old for change especially if something we are insecure about. Unfortunately we are our own worst critics and we all have something that someone else would love to have. I'd bet even as a grower you show more than you think just like all of us in the opposite category. Thank you for sharing

End of the day it’s my partner’s opinion that matters aroused she seems to enjoy my size

Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

That is a fact! She has the only vote that matters!

Hmm. I'm happy with how much it shows before it grows, Mrs Omniscient also :-)

She has the only vote that matters! Happy to hear that both of you love what you have.

And as a shower I only grow about 3/4 of an inch between soft and hard in length. Most of my growth is in girth, just to put in perspective to the growers.

Curious to see how much change a grower would see if anyone would be willing to share.

Petit4incher in reply to Healthyguy1

Wish I had ur confidence too show. But as a grower I never have

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

I think you're too hard on yourself. I'd bet you have one to be proud of in both states but we as males are too judgmental on ourselves.

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

And my confidence is anything but steady. Some days I have it and some days I don't have the slightest shred of it.

Petit4incher profile image
Petit4incher in reply to Healthyguy1

Yep times when it can affect you both mentally n physically

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

Isn't that the truth! Crazy how it works! The good days can be great and the bad days can be absolutely horrible.

in reply to Healthyguy1

As a grower I actually have a big difference when soft vs hard

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to

Yep I would imagine. As a shower I don't have that much of a change between soft and hard in length

Petit4incher profile image
Petit4incher

I’d say it’s worse for us growers. Some days as small as an inch others 2-3 and erect under 5

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Petit4incher

I can see your point but at the end of the day the only size that matters is the one your using to please her. And sounds like she really enjoys it. The shower like me is just that...more for show and not for grow.

I'm happy to be a grower. When it's not in action, it's reduced in size and not a nuisance or an inconvenience when in motion.While a slight bulge is ok in shorts etc anything more pronounced could be embarrassing and attract unwanted attention!

It must be really annoying folding away your bits as a shower when running or doing sport, not to mention finding comfortable pants.And let's face it 99% of the our time we are not aroused so reduced in size is convenient.

Plus as growers we get a front row seat to witness the miracle of human bio-hydraulics...from soft to hard can be quite a transformation for a grower!

There are benefits and drawbacks for both so best to be philosophical and accept what we are and enjoy the pluses.

Healthyguy1 in reply to Timthemoth

As a shower I completely agree with you! Seeing that dramatic of a transformation has to be a great experience. There are benefits to both sides mentally and physically. Thank you for sharing!

definitely a grower here, happy with what I got though. I like to think that being a grower is probably more comfortable than being a shower when it comes to day to day life.

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1

All that matters is your happy with what you have. There is positives and negatives to both sides but being able to have a bigger transformation when it's needed is definitely a plus and I'm envious for sure

Grower. Wouldn't mind a switch. But when it grows it's good

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to

Would be cool to be able to swap just to see what it's like. I'd love to be a grower for a day. But as long as your happy with it is all that matters! Thanks for sharing

in reply to Healthyguy1

In all honesty it seems to depend on the day. Not sure why.

Same here as well. If it's cold I suddenly become not a shower anymore haha

A big time grower, when not in use its tiny, so small I struggle to use a urinal standing up.But when hard it is wide enough and long enough to give my wife an excellent and orgasmic ride on it.

I believe that this is the best outcome, sleek like a dolphin when I swim and surf but effective when it is used for recreational and procreational sex. (I have 3 children)

If you want to impress the guys with the shower type in the locker room then good luck with that.

Personally I am not that way inclined

Healthyguy1 in reply to Iro1

Being able to give her an orgasm and keep her happy is all that matters. As a shower I do agree that it's most valuable state is when it has a purpose and that is being hard. Thanks for sharing

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Iro1

The only satisfying thing I get of being a shower which can be done as a grower too is getting a blow job beginning when soft. Something about that has always been a huge turn on for me and maybe more people as well. But after a little bit it's back to its most valuable state as said above. Kinda digressed and sorry if TMI but figured I'd give the strongest positive to me personally being a shower, and not trying to impress anyone in the locker room.

Unfortunately it's nuts how much low T can affect us physically and mentally. Glad it's back to working order and sounds like it has been working overtime lol. Congrats on losing the weight too!

Happy to hear your back to normal. Sorry you had to go through that as I'm sure that was tough to deal with

after years of being convinced by my ex I had a micro penis... I now know that I do not have a micro penis.... I am definitely a grower and love it... would I like to look like I'm packing more when not hard? Of course but I wouldn't change it

Bit late to the party, but I'm a grower. 3.5 ins soft then 6.5 to 7 erect, depending on the weather haha.Sometimes think I would like to have more to show soft, especially on the nudist beach, but I've got what I've got and it works that's the main thing

xsevenx profile image
xsevenx in reply to Man7Cut

I know what you mean about nude beaches!

That's a great size. The weather can be our friend and sometimes not at all lol. Thanks for sharing

Man7Cut in reply to Healthyguy1

Thanks. I'm happy with what I've got now. When I was younger thought a bit more would be better, but I had a friend who was huge and he sometimes found it to be a handicap

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Man7Cut

I think we all have wished we were bigger lol. I think either extreme have their advantages or disadvantages big or small. As long as we are happy with what we have is what is important.

Man7Cut profile image
Man7Cut in reply to Healthyguy1

You're right, my man. Stuff like that is not so important as you age and there's always someone who appreciates you as you are

Yes although I look a bit chubbier in the warmth of the Med

Indeed. Nothing like a bit of sunshine to perk things up.

I just noticed this topic and have to say I’m a grower. Depending on weather conditions and blood pressure it’s been as small as an innie (so maybe a negative inch?) during a cold, rainy marathon potty break to maybe 4” flaccid but it grows to a comfortable “nearly” 7” and about an extra half inch when I’m really excited. One thing I realized in the past couple of years is a wonderful side effect of being on a double dose (8 mg) of Flomax apparently turns me into a show-er, so yeah, definitely not shy about taking a shower at the gym anymore. So while I was envious at times at least I get to experience it both ways. 😜

xsevenx profile image
xsevenx in reply to Nick2U

I agree with you about Flomax/tamsulosin - I’m a shower since I started taking this medication. Very happy with this side effect!

Healthyguy1 profile image
Healthyguy1 in reply to Nick2U

That's a great size and seems like you have best of both worlds. Also not being shy in locker room is a huge plus!
