knob size

first off I'm a bloke. Second I was sexually abused as a child. Third I've always been uncomfortable with trust and relationships as a result. Fourth I've always lacked self confidence. Fifth I've over eaten as a means of control and am overweight.
Like most blokes I've always been sensitive to the size of my manhood but the tape measure says I'm average (honest).
Problem is my partner constantly makes fun of its size, even to my step daughters (who are over 18). She knows it upsets me, knows my issues but says it's just a joke so get over it. I know this is probably right (although I don't agree that the step daughters should be involved) but it plays on my inner most worries.
It's really eating into my self confidence but whenever I raise it as an issue it's dismissed as a joke.
What should I do?

Yes, it's another hairy palmed troll hoping for a furious wank.

Alarm bells going off at just the title alone

Yep, some thread titles seem to be created just for traffic, don't they? They always make me go Hmm

Never heard of "nob" as a head. "Noggin", yes, but not "nob".

If you're not a troll: leave her.

If you are a troll: find a hobby.

If you are a troll: find a hobby.

Preferably one that gets you out of the house and away from your PC.

ScarletBegonias · 22/02/2016 18:27

darth - a bit old-fashioned now, but people used to talk about 'big nobs' meaning (self) important people, with 'nob' meaning head.

And I believe the original version of "Jack and Jill" contained the lines:

"Up Jack got, and home did trot,
As fast as he could caper;
To old Dame Dob, who patched his nob
With vinegar and brown paper."

which later became "And went to bed and bound his head ..."

It was his head that the vinegar and brown paper went on, not anything else. Grin

PushingThru · 22/02/2016 18:32

I think everyone should teach their kids the original version, that'll be fun at parties Grin

violettahatesoperatta · 22/02/2016 18:43

Yeah! Grin

I have heard of nob for head

Knob for the helmetty thing?.. OK.. that works Grin

Buzzardbird · 22/02/2016 18:55

That's why it is called a knob violetta it's the head of the penis! Grin (and looks like a door knob)

ouryve · 22/02/2016 18:59

Leave her.

By constantly taking the piss and ridiculing you in front of other people, he is being abusive. And most definitely not funny.

ouryve · 22/02/2016 18:59

she! bloody keyboard!

violettahatesoperatta · 22/02/2016 19:04

As opposed to us 'ridiculing' him on here ouryve... possibly Wink

We should bloody charge if it's not genuine lol!

Buzzard yeah... gonna stand in the corner with the dunces cap on. Doh!

goodnightdarthvader1 · 22/02/2016 19:28

Not been back, has he?

Elendon · 22/02/2016 19:38

No response so far from the 'bloke'.

Quite frankly this is a most disturbing thread. And I suspect Womb has it spot on.

Elendon · 22/02/2016 19:44

I always internally sniggered at Nobby's nuts, (Brand of peanuts).

puerile

LilacSpunkMonkey · 22/02/2016 19:47

I've reported and would suggest others do the same.

Otherwise this will just get left here.

Sunnybitch · 22/02/2016 19:56

What is wrong with some people...I can't believe that doing something like this could get someone off --although id bet money womb is right- Hmm

ScoutsMam · 22/02/2016 19:57

Lovehandles · 23/02/2016 00:07

when is a knob not a knob?
when it's a helmetty thing?

LovelyFriend · 23/02/2016 00:12

To me the words knob and dickhead have always been easily interchangeable Grin

ClarenceTheLion · 24/02/2016 19:29

Erm, couldn't it be real? Maybe he didn't come back because of the troll hunting.

Peyia · 24/02/2016 19:44
