Does your partner prefer pumped to 100% or less?

[Hillywilly]

I always pump to 100%. Doesn't make sense to me why a girl would prefer a less hard erection unless it hinders bloodflow for some individuals then I can see why a woman might prefer it less pumped to add to the flow but if you have good engorgement I don't think there is any reason to not inflate to 100%.

Great answers here.

Just to add, there have been some journals I have read where the partners felt like they were being poked with a stick. I believe this was either due to being TOO inflated OR lack of bloodflow. This could contribute to the level of inflation partners prefer.

Something to keep in mind.

There’s really not much difference between 90-100% for me. Both are like an iron rod. Difference for me is that at 100%, not able to get even 1 more micro-squeeze in, is that i feel REALLY stretched out, with the glans being squeezed. I don’t seem to get as good engorgement at that level until moments before orgasm. Also, at full max, i tend to feel some soreness after about :35-:40 minutes of vigorous fucking.

So, i back off the pressure from 100% just a touch, and it’s good for both of us. She says it’s still rock hard there and loves it.

my partner doesn't prefer max inflation, neither do i, i would start an oral at 75/80%, follow with a 15 minute vaginal session, then take it up with 3 full pumps to around 90%, great value last night this way, for me 100% is too hard and uncomfortable, 90% is the perfect number for me

I haven't received input on preferences from either my wife nor my girlfriend. I recall one night when my girlfriend and I had a session (scene) at the local BDSM club, on the "table", afterward she said, "You were ROCK HARD!" I asked if she preferred it that way or a little softer and she said she liked it either way.

My wife really hasn't expressed a preference either way but knowing her (41+ years), and her limited amount of "stretch" down there, I typically go slightly less than 100% but have pumped up fully depending on the mood. She probably wouldn't mind me always using 100% though, since we've used toys before that had a bit more girth than I have and she liked them.

Agreed.
My Asian wife doesn't like "rock hard"
75-85% is perfect for her.

To each their own, I guess.

I don't have an implant yet (I am scheduled to have surgery in two months) and combine injections (Androskat, Caverject) and PD5i to get an erection. The erection then is like 70%-90%, almost never 100%.

I regard this as a disadvantage (e.g. some positions like 'cow girl' are not possible this way). However, some women have said that if my penis would be 100% erect, it would be to uncomfortable for them, as my penis is large (8.7 inches length & 7 inches circumference).

If my size loss after implant surgery is limited, I can thus imagine that not inflating to 100% is prefered by some women.

Statistically it is highly improbable to be that size however If you really are that size than your length and girth are both in the 99.99% percentile of men so I doubt the vast majority of men encounter the same problem.

Yes, I know I am in the less than 0.5% category, and yes the chance is about 80% every time I make even the most modest remark about my size, somebody from the 99.5% group makes a remark like you just did. Apparently, some men are so insecure that a remark from somebody claiming to have a bigger dick than they have, triggers some automatic defensive response.

Back to the topic of the thread....even with a penis slightly above average in size, women can experience the same kind of discomfort if the penis is really hard, some of these women told me. Women differ greatly anyhow in the size of penis they can - comfortably - have sex with.
