The penis is said to be very unique depending upon the people, of whose penis you are considering and all the penis have their own importance and all are considered to be good and in some cases more than good. 

When you are considering a penis you should know that there is no such thing as bad shape or size of a penis, you just do not have enough and proper knowledge about using the given or provided penis. You should love the penis that you have got and try to make the most of it when you are having or performing sex.

What does a penis mean?

A penis is an organ and you should not consider it as a muscle and this organ is primarily made up of spongy tissues and these spongy tissues are filled with blood that will help you to achieve an erection so you can penetrate while doing solo or partnered sex. 

You may find this organ to be very straightforward but you should know that this is way more complex than it looks. It consists of the following parts which are the glans (the head of the penis), corpus (the shaft of the penis) and the prepuce (this is the foreskin of your penis). This organ is also said to be the home of the urethra which is the thin tube through which your urine and semen travels or moves out of your body.

What are the various shapes, sizes and other distinctive characteristics of a penis?

If you are considering anything typical about your penis you should know that this organ is usually cylindrical and has a very wide and a very well pronounced head. 

Type of shape of various penis: 

  • Curved upward: This shape is very similar to a banana and the penis is said to be slightly curved in the upward direction and this is usually seen or observed when the penis is erect. Achieving an orgasm is not the end of having sex but having an upward curved penis is very advantageous as it can easily lead to the stimulation of the G spot, A spot and the prostate of a person.
  • Curved downward: This kind of penis is what it sounds like, that when this penis becomes hard it is seen to have a downward curve which is very similar to an inverted banana. This penis is also very advantageous like the counterpart and if you want to make the most of this kind of penis you can try flipping your partner around as this will get your penis closer to the pleasure spots easily and also lead to the stimulation of these spots.
  • C shaped: This type of penis is said to be curved to the right side and when you or your partner is known to practice a curved and you are keen to experiment and practice different kinds of angles, then in such cases you can find having this kind of penis helpful for yourself. You will be having the same advantages of stimulating the hotspots when you have a C shaped penis like the banana shaped penises.
  • Straight: When you have a straight penis you can see that it is somewhat of the same shape from the head to the shaft and you can perform all kinds of sex positions without facing much difficulty. When you have a partner that is ready for performing all kinds of sexual positions then also you will not be facing problems as this kind of penis could require only little to no kind of tweaking.
  • Bigger base with narrow head: This kind of penis is said to have thicker bas and it gets narrow as you move upward near to the head of your penis and this penis looks very similar to a cone. This kind of penis shape has its own perk and benefits as the narrow head makes the entry of the penis very easy for the penis whereas the wider base makes the stimulation of the spots very easy when the penis goes deeper.
  • Narrow base and larger head: This kind of penis is similar to a hammer which is very long and thin along with a larger head. The tip of the penis has so much girth and is very effective in the stimulation of the rectal and the vaginal walls which creates so much friction that will make you and your partner really good.

You can also see that these penises do not only vary in the shape but also in the length and thickness of the penis. Without any regard to the combination, the right kind of combination can make you feel much more pleasurable. Some of the possible combinations are mentioned below: 

  • Smaller than average length and girth
  • Shorter than average length and thick girth
  • Average length and girth
  • Larger than average length and girth
  • Larger than average length and thin girth

Along with keeping the penile health better you should keep your body and mind healthy as well: 

Your physical and mental health is known to affect the health of your penis as well, so you should be staying at your best as both of them are considered to be important and are very necessary if you want to keep the functioning of your penis at its best. You need to follow the same healthy lifestyle that will help you to decrease the risk of any kind of chronic diseases can also help you to keep your penis healthy, these might include the following: 

  • You need to limit or avoid smoking
  • You need to eat a balanced diet
  • You need to your stress levels down
  • You need to get regular movement
  • You need to get yourself enough sleep
  • You should keep yourself and your penis safe

If you have partnered sex, you are suggested to use a barrier and get yourself tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) as often as possible. You should ask your sexual partner the same. If you are willing to have sex without using a condom you should be aware of the risks that you can be open to and you should also have a candid conversation with your partner regarding the status and the expectation that you are having. You should have a curious mind about learning preventive medications.

Conclusion: 

You should know that now two penises are said to be similar and be of the same type and none of the types can be compared and said that this one is better than the other one. So you should be concentrating on the pleasure that you are going to get because of it instead of how it is looking.
