Honest Preferences
Why Stating Your Size Matters Dating Preferences Is Healthy
Body confidence, sexual compatibility, and time saved - three reasons researchers and members keep landing on.
Stating a size preference is a normal expression of sexual self-knowledge, not a moral failing. The most-cited research on the topic is the 2015 study by Nicole Prause, Jaymie Park, Shannon Leung, and Geoffrey Miller, published in PLOS ONE and indexed on PubMed Central. Using 3D-printed models, the study found that women preferred a penis around 6.4 inches in length and 5 inches in circumference for short-term hookup partners, while preferences for long-term partners trended slightly closer to average. The headline finding for a size queen dating site is straightforward: size-based preferences are real, measurable, and not unusual.
For one-night encounters, women preferred a penis around 6.4 inches in length and 5 inches in circumference. For long-term partners they preferred slightly closer to average.

Here is the thing: the data has been around for a decade, but the dating apps built since haven't caught up. A 2024 Pew Research Center analysis of online dating in the United States reported that 46% of users describe their experience as "more negative than positive", with mismatched expectations cited as the second most common complaint after safety. Size matters dating exists precisely because mismatched expectations cost women time, energy, and sometimes safety - and because a single line on a profile prevents most of it.
So when a member writes "size queen - 7 inches and up, no exceptions" on her profile, she isn't being shallow. She is being efficient. She is also being kind to the partners she would have unmatched with anyway, who now never spend a Friday driving to meet her. That is what the platform is built to enable.
