Jennuine, as men, we're each as individual as our endowment. I've said this before, a number of times in the LPSG. We do not all behave the same way around other men (i.e. gyms and lockerrooms).
I identify more with the shy, quiet type fella and would just as soon
NOT get too much attention from on-lookers....I don't deliberately "flaunt my wares."
(even though quietly I suppose all of us guys here like SOME admiration

)
I should know by now, this far along in life, that I will never get along with everyone. But I would surely hate for my "dimensions" to spark jealousy, bitterness, or rivalry from my fellow brothers!
I would either ignore the anomosity or "downplay it" somehow. After all, my "size" doesn't necessarily define me. Those who know me realize that.
post script: 'Just read Jennuine's added note about her 18 year old friend and "what to tell him". I would reassure him that his value as a man and human being is not determined by his "size"...that other guys who joke and make fun ARE likely jealous. He has the opportunity of being a good example of a
mature man by dismissing their comments and not yielding to their jesting and ridicule. While he certainly doesn't need an emotional complex about his body, he also should avoid becoming arrogant and "cocky" around others either! --Pun so noted.
