Mostly it's a porn-driven obsession. When I was coming of age, long before personal computers, let alone smart phones, porn was not readily available. In those days, guys that were “hung like a horse” were regarded as sort of freaks of nature, and more likely to be snickered at than admired. At least that's the way guys felt; I never heard girls talk about it.Why are men so obsessed with cock size?
Johnny Holmes came on the porn scene in the early 70s, and the success of his films shows that there was a fascination for big cocks even then— maybe latent until then. Porn always repeats and imitates whatever sells, so I would guess that his films were the origin of porn's obsession with big cocks.
But even so, I watched a fair amount of porn during its ”golden age” (’70s) when you could see it in mainstream theaters, and most of the cocks I remember were maybe a little bigger than average, simply because they had to show up well on camera and in action— but they weren't huge, by any means. I usually went with my wife and one or more other female friends. I remember hearing them talk freely about the action on screen, and what they liked, but I don't ever remember hearing them talk about cock sizes. I'm sure it would have imprinted deeply if I had.
So, porn-inspired, but it also seems that a small but significant percentage of men are aroused by humiliation. I know i am and always have been, but it's only recently that I've begun to realize how common it is. So, male psychology being what it is, there are two sure roads to humiliation: one is to be denigrated for being sexually inadequate; the other is to be cuckolded. And when they come together, it's high voltage
