Erection reflection



According to the National Institutes of Health approximately 5% of 40-year-old men and between 15% and 25% of 65-year-old men experience erectile dysfunction on a long-term basis. 

Well, my experience of men between the ages of 40-53 have been a little umm, unsatisfying at times. My personal stats are way, errr way higher. Basically I'm calling bullshit on the NIH statistics.  

 There are 3 reasons that could cause the statistics I have observed to be so much higher than the NIH statistics.  (1) Not every man with erectile dysfunction (ED) mentions it to their doctor so therefore recorded stats are lower than reality. (2) I'm dating a pool of men who have had problems with their relationship, and ED may have contributed to that.  (3) I'm unattractive and men lose their ability to maintain an erection when they see me nude - now that couldn't possibly be true. Discount (3).

 It is my belief that approximately 50% of men aged 40-53 have ED.  

Lets break down my statistics.

50% of the men I've dated were once married.  80% of these men were impotent to some degree.

20% of the men I've dated left their partner voluntarily, never married, had kids.  0% had erectile problems.  

20% were never married and didn't have children.  50% of this group had ED but granted, alcoholism and a diet of almost 100% red meat (for 1 of these men anyway) may have contributed to that.

10% were married men.  No erectile dysfunction but I should add selfish in bed. 

 And you know why this is a huge problem for women who sleep with men over 40?  Well sex for most, if not all men is classed as an act that ends in their ejaculation.  He can't get it up - "maybe some other time babe, it's just not happening for me tonight." Yawn, yawn, go to sleep. And it's the casual way they say it that always takes me by surprise.  Like it's not a big issue.  

I'm really glad I've taken a look at my statistics.  It reinforces my belief that men who have been married and have been left / asked to leave should be approached with absolute caution.  80% erectile dysfunction in the bedroom but strangely and rather ironically, 100% big on monogamy requests, cuddles, hand holding and public displays of ownership. 

 Who knows, maybe the group of men I have access to is quite unique in their high proportion of impotency.  My gut instinct tells me though that NIH have left out a few men, or someone is telling lies when the surveys go out. 

5% my arse!

Pull my balls - Part 2

Image
Pulling balls = very hard work indeed "In my opinion".  It's always important to say that.  In my opinion, certain personality traits are easy to pick up on just by reading a man's profile on an Internet dating site.  Quiet bits of information that can be gleaned from the information provided. Whether or not I'm correct, playing this game of deeper meaning makes the screening process a bit more fun.  What music do you like?   This seems like an innocent enough question.  In my opinion, this question isn't so innocent.  Men who still list the same bands and songs that were popular when they were teenagers have failed to progress and grow.  25-30 years have passed since they were at university and you can't tell me that in all those years they are unable to come up with a few new tunes that take their fancy.  My guess is that they still have exactly the same opinions as they had back then.  Harsh aren't I?   Yes, yes, I'm getting to the st

Middle-age men and their missing molars

Image
I've only dated one man in the last year who hasn't been missing at least one tooth. And I've dated a few. It goes like this. Introductions over, perhaps sit and chat for a bit. You say something worthy of a LOL, or more likely, he says something he thinks is funny, he arches his head back and opens his mouth. Your first magic moment together. And bingo, there it is!  Or rather, there it isn't.  No matter how many times I see that 'space' I'm always shocked. 4th or 5th tooth back from the midline, usually upper mandible. Always obvious. These men have good cars (yes, they tell me), they're reasonably employed, ok clothes and hygiene...but their teeth! When you look at the Australian statistics, it's undoubtedly the poor who are missing teeth - adults without private health insurance, those on lower incomes and those who are eligible for public dental care have more missing teeth ( 1) . The cohort available to me on RSVP. Usually lower socioeco

Bald men

Bald men, searching for a date on the internet seem to have no hesitation filling and ticking the boxes which specify the traits they'd like in a woman. It's as if men and women are even, hair or not, and let's go. Let's get started saying what we want in each other.  Strangely, I've never seen a dating site where members can tick a box which specifies "full head of hair please".   One can, however specify age preference, eye colour, hair colour, body shape, height, star sign, religion, political persuasion, personality, drinking habits, smoking habits, job, education, nationality and ethnicity.  You can specify that you are bald, you just can't specify that you don't  want  bald. So there is room to be ageist and racist, but you cannot be...I'd say  hairist  here, but even that word seems to be reserved for men who don't like women with certain coloured hair rather than people who want a partner with a full head of hair. Even the mar
