Oh God. I am a woman and reasonably experienced, but until I was 40 I had no idea different guys had different penis sizes when erect, I'd had about a dozen guys or so before settling down in my 20s and literally they were all the same size hard, no matter what size they were soft so I thought that was universal.

Not so much anatomy as emotional makeup. My ex thought that every negative emotion I experienced as anger. I’d be sad and she’d be asking me why I was angry. I’d be afraid and she’d ask me why I was angry. I’d be ashamed or frustrated, “why are you angry?”
It really pissed me off
I have several times experienced women (non-penis-havers) giving definitive statements of how circumcision affects a man's experience of sex. It was especially ironic because they were telling me that my (circumcised penis-haver's) experience was wrong.
I’m circumcised and my glans is the least sensitive flesh on my entire body.
Given how many nerve endings are contained in a foreskin and in a glans I’m pretty confident it has affected my experience of sex.
Same, but I've learned not to say so in public, lest the flying monkeys of the pro-circumcision crowd swoop in to call me a liar and heap verbal abuse on me.
I'm actually glad that my sensitivity is reduced, as I am sure that I would have premature ejaculation issues if I still had a foreskin.
I'm pretty sure that's not how it works, based on what my friend (who's gay and has experience with far more penises than me) has told me. But aside from that, can I ask why you feel the need to say this? It's a really common reply which changes nothing about my experience, so I always have to wonder what it's about.
Hmmm just relating my thoughts on being circumcised and why I think it was potentially a good thing for me. Don't get me wrong, I am not for circumcision, it's an unnatural and unnecessary thing that we should stop doing.
My wife was in a panic when we had a baby boy and she realised that male kids, even babies get boners. She thought that didn't happen till puberty. I told her, that's why a kid who can't lift a book can get one at any moment once they hit puberty, cause that thing works itself out without our knowledge or consent and while we sleep. I wish the rest of my muscles worked out while I slept.
Tell her that baby boys even get boners while still inside the womb.
Also, the penis is not a muscle. It gets hard because it contains chambers that fill up with blood.
