It’s the eternal question. Forget the chicken and the egg and the riddle of the sphinx. Nope, we’ve got the puzzle that has probably vexed humankind since the first caveman hookup: does size matter? It’s a physiological and philosophical conundrum that could confound Freud and Foucault alike. Who better to offer their viewpoint on this age-old question than some of the world’s top pornstars? Here’s what they had to say on the subject . . . and their answers may surprise you!

Asa Akira (Reddit AMA)

I’m not really a size queen.. bigger is not better for me. I could never date someone as big as Mandingo.

Angel Del Rey (Phatfriend.com)

Honestly if it gets the job done, I’m satisfied. There’s such a thing as too big. Not fun for small girls like myself.

Chanel Rae (TrippAdvice)

Size matters to a certain extent. Of course, if a guy is too small, very, very small, that would be a problem, but if you’re mediocre, as long as you know how to use it – that’s the big thing. Because there’s guys out there who are huge and are confident about it, but they tend to actually be not that good in bed.

Jayden Jaymes (Adult DVD Talk)

Well… I need something to work with, but I’m definitely not a size queen.

Gianna Michaels (Videobox)

Nope. Chemistry does [matter] though.

Siri (Reddit AMA)

I’m a big fan of the average cock size. I’m certain there’s a good biological reason that the average is what it is. Gee, maybe that it fits better in my vagina! The best sex I’ve ever had is with my husband, who is not a porn performer, and is of perfectly average penis size.

Nikki Benz (NudeReviews)

Well, if it’s too big. What a lot of guys don’t realize is that it hurts. Your vagina is designed to fit a six-and-a-half inch dick in it. Anything beyond that is poking your cervix and it hurts. So, I’m going to say my favorite size is between six to seven inches.

Katja Kassin (Hush Hush)

I like big dicks. I like the way they fill me up and stretch my pussy. I like big dicks in my ass. Small dicks feel strange because the muscle doesn’t stretch all the way. There is just something about it. I don’t like small dildos, there’s a certain size that makes it feel great when the muscle stretches.

Aaliyah Love (Adult DVD Empire interview)

It doesn’t matter to me. I’ve dated guys with tiny little dicks. I’ve dated porn guys with big dicks. It’s all is good — it all makes me come. It doesn’t matter. It just matters when you look at me and there’s intensity and there’s passion, and it’s like animal instinct.
