Maybe this is more of a question for theoryofreddit, but I just wanted to put it out there and ask why anyone might think this is?

Because people don't like to admit to their size concerns. These people are the saddest of all.
I've since learned that it's only really 5,000 or so, but they added the extra zeros because they thought it was funny (lying about their size.) I'll give them that- it is crafty. But, I think the real humor lies in that they all list their measurements after their names and treat the sub like the elk's lodge.
Maybe for smalldickproblems we could have a negative membership listed in the sidebar???
Also, there's a lot of 'life is the worst with a big dick' types... like they're some beast steering a vessel that can find no port of entry or something. They are so melodramatic about not being able to find condoms that fit that it's hard to take them seriously. Seriously, with the ferocity with which some of them complain you'd think a family member just died or something. I'm not really buying the sincerity factor they're pushing over there. It seems a little more vain and exhibitionist than they'd like to admit.
Hi, I'm a visitor from r/BigDickProblems. I understand what you're saying about us, and I can see where you're coming from.
But, in the most polite way, I want to give you our side of the story:
Any outlier in penile size will present a person with problems. 'Too' big, 'too' small – the body is made to accomodate averages, nothing more, nothing less. Men tend to think "the bigger, the better," but females aren't as concerned with size. They just want something that feels good. Oftentimes, it's the average guys – 5.5" – that they tend to like the most.
Size (whether too big or too small) really does present a lot of problems, and a good amount of our complaints are justified. For instance, some condoms hurt so much that you can't get hard for sex. This isn't melodramatic, this is real. Another example that happens a lot is that a girl will completely reject a guy because he is "too big". This really does happen, and it's more common than you think.
We would never look down upon you. In the end, we're all guys, who like sex, and Reddit, and most of us like boobs. We're similar. You shouldn't have to feel a "divide" between us. I hope you understand.
Again, I feel like we are comparing first world problems with third world problems.
and i feel like you're looking for somebody to blame for your own poor self image. because it can't be your fault that you aren't okay with your body.
after all, those exhibitionists over at r/bdp only have to deal with societal pressure and stigmatization, not to mention ostracization, from their peers; facing rejection for a seemingly arbitrary physical characteristic or indeed having it be tacked on unwillingly to their identity, negating everything else about that person. no longer being a person with goals, dreams or interests. ups downs, or anything in between. just a penis.
sound familiar?
this is on top of physical pain. aren't they just lucky bastards? when was the last time you humiliated yourself and hospitalized your beloved? couldn't practice safe sex because a condom literally made you tear up in agony? got an erection and were unable to walk? wear pants meant for somebody not your size and nearly burst a testicle? be excluded from sports because standard equipment sizing could not accommodate you, disallowing you to pursue any active interest?
we're really not that different. this isn't high school, leave the scapegoating bullshit out of this and try to solve the root problem, not blame somebody for something they cannot control. besides, you're part of an "elk club" hugbox too.

Trust me, there are many problems for both of us, just on different sides of the spectrum. I legitimately can't wear any condoms from the US. The closest one's size accommodates for a 5.6 inch girth, about. And I'm about an inch bigger than that, so it's a very uncomfortable/tight fit. Nobody makes fun of small guys on r/bdp, but a lot of small guys make fun of big guys on here. It doesn't come off as cool. There's plenty of big dick shaming and small dick complimenting going on. And I also understand there's big dick glorification, and small dick humiliation. You just gotta make the best of it. We may be well-endowed, but we all aren't huge dicks.
I do not get that vibe from that subreddit at all.. quite the opposite actually.
Its an inside joke. In reality, its only about 10,000 subscribers.
Actually they just added the 3 zeros at the end to make it 5 million, in order to make it seem as if everyone says they have a big dick.
Because they're exaggerating their size, you see.
