Yes, you can of course live with your shame of backing out, because you most likely couldn't match the other members.
That rational has likely had many boy eating the soggy biscuit.
Statistically I know that I would likely on average be about in line with just about every other bloke here
As far as I can see from evidence I am about the size of Peter or Ricky but not as big as Tesla.
But as to being ashamed? No. That is a flawed ideology about manliness. I could similarly make as ridiculous claim about saying that only men with children have a claim to manliness or that my masculinity is up for question if I was a virgin or if I had not.....had a fight before.
These are not serious considerations and most "men" on here gave up such considerations when they were out of their teens and became men and no longer had the insecurity of being little boys.
