ED: The Best Thing to Happen to Intimacy
By Michael J. Russer @ The Good Men Project
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is the best thing to happen to me and my intimacy.
There, I said it. Actually, I say it a lot. On radio, TV, print, online and occasionally gatherings (it’s a great way to quiet a room down if things get rowdy). If some guy had made the same claim to me just two years ago, I would have thought he was either insane or just messing with me. Being fully impotent (i.e. can’t get it up to save my life, even with the pills) is not something most men would be willing to discuss. Or for that matter, even comfortable listening to men talk about. The way some men react, you would think that my “condition” is contagious. Read the rest of this entry

I’ve Never Felt Sexual Desire
Asexual pride
By Courtney Nahmens
I’m asexual with no desire for sex.
I’m also aromantic, feeling no desire for romance.
I do understand what is considered sexy, sexual innuendo, and words surrounding sexuality like whore, tease, sensual, etc. I understand the language and actions surrounding sex.

The Most Important Thing For a Woman: Be Hot
Las Vegas billboard
Many young women think that the most important thing is to be hot. And in a very narrow way.
It’s no wonder. They’re bombarded by narrowly sexy images.
Go to Google Images and type “sexy images” or “sexy fantasies.” About 99% of the pics will be of women.
What? Men aren’t sexy?
And why do they all look alike. Isn’t variety the spice of life?
Go to Las Vegas and take a look at the billboards. About 99% will be sexy ladies. Read the rest of this entry

Coming With Your Partner
If you don’t climax when you are with your partner you’re not alone. Less than one-third of women say they do.
But twice as many orgasm when they “do it” alone (aka masturbation). Like this 54-year-old:

For me it’s about seeking approval… the most fun and exciting and ego gratifying times in my life have been when I have embraced it and danced with it.
This reminded me of a woman who said (more like complained) that her guy seemed to get an ego-boost whenever a woman he ogled noticed him.
So I’m wondering why this is. Read the rest of this entry
