Dear Dr Dick,
Why do men always leave the wet spot on your side of the bed?

Still stuck to the sheets
Red Hill, Brisbane

Doctor Dick replies:
Because that's where you are?
Seriously though, sex therapists and researchers throughout the world still cannot agree on whether the wet spot in women really exists in the first place. Among the proponents of the wet spot theory were famous American sex workers, Simone and Chantelle, who declared in their 1938 thesis: Wet spots: their origins, makeup and longevity, that your average wet spot consisted of 83 percent male seminal fluid and related prostate gland discharges, and 17 percent vaginal secretions. In other words, the wet spot, for those like yourself who believe in its existence, is largely a male creation. As such, it just boils my butt to think that after a man has given freely and lovingly of himself, your typical selfish modern women – yes, you, still stuck to the sheets, of Red Hill! – want to give it straight back. It is any wonder that my therapy and massage rooms are overcrowded with some very confused and frustrated late 20th Century men?

 

Dear Doctor Dick,
My last boyfriend was an absolute dud and my love life is once again up the putty. Any suggestions?


Longing for love

Doctor Dick replies:
I'm going to answer this question on the basis that you're female, quite a risky assumption seeing you come from Sydney.
My dear old gran had some very wise advice on finding the right mate and I'm happy to pass it on to you now.
Whenever she started dating a new beau, she'd insist on being taken down to the beach for a seafood takeaway meal.
Any suitor who ignored the more expensive fillets and happily hoed into a feast of deep-sea mullet with minimum chips was, inevitably, her sort of man.

 

Dear Dr Dick,
What is the average size of the unerect penis?

Curious,
Newcastle, NSW

Doctor Dick replies:
The unerect penis varies enormously in nature. The largest ever measured was almost seven feet long (in the old scale) and weighed almost 300lb. These statistics, recorded by researchers at the San Francisco Museum of Natural History in 1934, are treated with some suspicion because the mature blue whale had beached itself on a remote Californian Pacific Ocean bay several weeks before being discovered. The museum staff believe that the unerect penis of the blue whale in its natural environment would be quite a bit smaller due to shrinkage caused by the cold water. At the other end of the scale, the smallest unerect penis ever recorded goes to the West African mite (Microscopis dinkus) at 0.0003cm. Entomologists recorded this statistic using sophisticated electron microscopes and taking extra special caution not to arouse the insect with the microscopic tweezers they were using to extract the mite's penis from its sheath. In the mid range of unerect peni is the South American...

Dear Doctor Dick,
No, I meant the human penis!

Doctor Dick replies:
Oh, sorry. This also varies a lot. African tribesmen living on the equator, for example, have a much larger unerect penis length than do Eskimos living close to the North Pole. But let's get down to tin tacks. You're worried about the length of your own little fireman, are you not? Of course you are. Most men fret away their entire lives with such concern – and with no good reason whatsoever. Always remember that men observe their own penis from above and it always looks small from way up there. They then get depressed at the urinal when they take a peek at men standing beside them, only to discover other peni seem much larger than their's So next time you're standing at the urinal, do this simple test. Make a mental measurement of the penis length of the chap beside you and then hold up your hand with your thumb and index finger apart by the same length. Then simply say: "Your penis is this long. How big's mine?" You'll be amazed at the result.

 

Dear Doctor Dick,
I wish to thank you for all your insights.

Doctor Dick replies:
Well thank you, Tony. I'm here to serve.

 

Dear Doctor Dick,
My boyfriend sucks!

Frustrated,
Highgate Hill

Doctor Dick replies:
And your problem?

 

Dear Doctor Dick,
Is it true that a man can enlarge his penis with jelq tech? I heard you can. If so, how does it work? Is there any way to make you penis bigger without surgery? Please write back.
I hope you have a great day.

Doctor Dick replies:
I sure as hell will – as soon as I find out what the hell jelq tech is!
