I'm actually very pleased by your response. Although, it's perhaps not the response I would have expected. Nor, I think, the response I personally would have given to that question.
I'm glad you're pleased by my response. I suppose it was fairly predictable from my previous posts.

I suppose first of all I should congratulate you on your shrinkage. Well done.
Thanks for the congratulations. You have no idea how much I appreciate your support.

Perhaps. I re-edit posts until every word I use carries the message I want ... courteously, if possible.
This post is running quite long now, so I won't quote your reasons why some men might not be thrilled with penis shrinkage. Some seem quite sound. It's the age-old problem of inductive and deductive reasoning -- in this case, deductive reasoning, which is reasoning from the general to the particular.
You lack several pieces of information concerning me.
1) I'm a gay male who is a bottom (in your usage, submissive).
2) I have grand mal epilepsy, which is controlled quite well with medication.
3) My medications have side effects which make it nearly impossible to get an erection as well as damping my sex drive to nearly zero. My drive to go out prowling for a sexual conquest is vastly lower than a "normal" man, much less the hypersexual dudes portrayed in porn.
In my case:
1.) A small penis makes it less likely I will be asked to perform as a top (dominant role) when my medications make that nearly impossible.
2.) Being gay, I have no interest in pleasing a woman.
3.) Certainly I remember those penis enlargement spam e-mails; I delete them every day. However,
some men want larger dicks does not imply that
all men want larger dicks; it does imply that some men are satisfied with their dick size or that some men want smaller dicks.
4.) I have seen some gay porn. Who hasn't? However, the written word interests me more than visual representations. Most of the performers in porn with huge cocks are dominant. I'm submissive; while I would like a huge cock up my ass, it does not necessarily follow that I want to own one.
5.) I am a submissive male -- the bottom -- in a gay relationship. However, a submissive attitude in the bedroom does not imply submission in any other aspect of life.
6.) One of the effects of my medication is to depress my testosterone levels. Thus the low sex drive, inability to get an erection, etc. I probably was not fertile before using this file. I'm also quite effeminate -- see the definition of "femboy" -- http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=femboy -- especially definition two.
7.) This attitude does seem prevalent in most men. However, in my case, bigger would mean that I would be asked to top. I can't, so .... Having a smaller penis -- a micropenis -- eliminates that possibility.
Your reasoning did make sense to me. The applicability of those reasons to me was where the fault lay.
Since we are both INFP, I do not need to reword everything for you. Mom was ESTJ, so I can use other modalities when needed.
Peace.
