!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Yea, I get what you’re saying. I wasn’t planning on dating. She already has a bf. Just embarrassing if she knows I’m small down there.
Why is it embarrassing?
How is it not? Thinking about them laughing behind my back and making jokes. I mean I’ll get over it, but definitely embarrassing.
If you're for real: Almost nobody cares about your dick size. The few people who do are no better than the creeps who laugh at fat people for existing in public. Body shamers are the ones who should be embarrassed.
If this is all some elaborate humiliation kink thing: Stop roping nonconsenting internet bystanders into your fetish.
If there is a median size, then half the men are under it. The only reason your coworker would be laughing behind your back about it, is if she was a shallow person - at that point she'll be laughing about a lot more - height, looks.
At the end of the day, you cannot change your size, anymore than you can change your eyecolor, regrow hair as a bald person, etc. Ultimately, nobody cares about your dicksize, the only person that might is your partner, and even then it's a prefference. A partner will never check all the "prefference" checkboxes either, since a partner that is "perfect for you" isn't some magical entity that was created by reading your mind.
Some woman prefer a "more manageable size". Also one that won't hurt them.
Not all woman find a big one comfortable.
This is absolutely true. The women who actually prefer 7+ inches are rare, and most explicitly seeking it haven't actually experienced it. My girl prefers 5 or smaller because we can't do the things she enjoys at my size.
How would they know what your dick size is unless you got hard during waxing? You stated yourself that you're a grower like a lot of guys and I'm sure a person who waxes genitals for a living would recognize this. This doesn't make any sense.
The size you're describing isn't small enough to even make jokes about. Believe me, I've heard women joke about size and it's the 2 inches or less while erect range; and even then it's about bad hookups or guys that have been awful to them.
Girls that see random flaccid dick regularly are even less likely to joke about size.
Size doesn't matter. I'm close friends with a dude dating in his 50s and his dick just doesn't work like it used to after he had a heart attack. The women are usually very understanding and often like the challenge. Someone loving you for who you are wouldn't even be bothered by something like that as long as it's about love. And if she physically needs more sometimes, just buy a dildo to help her out. Nothing more or less as if she needs dirty talk. Just oblige and make her happy as she makes you happy.
I think just go about your business assuming her friend kept it on the down-low, and it doesn’t seem like it’s led to her treating you worse so all good. Nothing to be embarrassed about if you trust her to be a good person, which you seem to.
I get it, of course, it’s certainly a little awkward and not a position I would want to be in. I’ll bet the not knowing if she knows is probably worse than if you could know for sure she does, eh?
100% the not knowing is stressing me out. I feel like it’s at least 75% chance they discussed it considering they are best friends. Your advise is correct, but it will be awkward for a while.
Absolutely a little awkward for a bit. But you got a big friendly hello and that’s a win, yea?
Was just thinking maybe her friend said or offered to say and she went “why the fuck should I care?”. Everything is equally possible, take ‘er easy and remember that you’ve got this no matter how it’s sliced :)
