Well I just read this entire thread and I think it is definitely a very good one. This is an issue that every single one of us PE’ers must think about at some time.
First a few things on previous comments;
I mean no offense and I hope you don’t take it that way but Luvaduvs I really have a problem with the comment you made on the first page about women who talk about penis and penis related issues with with their boyfriends or friends. You call these women (who talk more than others about it) slutty.
In my opinion, this is exactly the reason why we have communication problems with women about sex. Women are “conditioned” or too scared to take about it because of their fear of being branded as “Sluts.
We all of us (men and women) are to have sex discussions without feeling embarrassed, ashamed or slutty the improvement in out sex lives (which indirectly improves so many other parts of our relationships) will be expontential.
Obviously the fear of inimate discussions and openness about sex that many women have and they we men complain about, come from us and our attitudes in the first place!
Sorry for the rant, no offensive, luvaduvs I always read and enjoy your contributions.
With respect to women talking about it with their friends; I agree completely, unless you swear them to secrecy, you can expect your “private discussion” to get out. Women talk, that is just a fact we have to deal with. If you want to keep it a private matter, than don’t tell anyone.
I did tell my girlfriend of 2 years and she wasn’t happy about it. I feel that it is a combination of he concern for any long term and short term effects (as I did have a little ED due to over work a little while ago) and her own insecurities.
I really agree with Hang 10 who wrote that women are hesitant to support it because they feel (maybe only subconsciously) that you have an alterior motive for doing it which deals with your desires for some one new or their own self perceived inadaquacies.
Address their insecurities and the chances are you will get the support you are looking for (unless you have a 2 hour a day “habit” as some one put it haha).
