Myths and fairy tales
ОглавлениеThere are some myths that can have a negative influence on one's own sexuality. They never die out completely, but continue to propagate from generation to generation - however wrong they may be!
In the following some important ones are listed.
A real man always wants and can
Masculinity is the same as potency - many men think so! If "it" doesn't work then they have a considerable problem, because a potency disorder makes a man a wimp! If you believe in this myth, it's not surprising that you withdraw with erectile dysfunction and do not want to open up to your partner or even a doctor.
Only a large penis can really satisfy your partner
The fact is: It's not the size of the penis that matters, it's what you do with it! Moreover: many women don't care about penis size. Empathy, tenderness and last but not least fantasy in sexuality are far more important to them!
Only when both partners reach their climax at the same time, everything is fine
Simultaneous orgasm is the ultimate goal for many men. However, it is important to remember that it requires a lot of concentration, which does not necessarily promote pleasure. It is well known that the needs during sex are different, and it is important to know the wishes and needs of your partner and to respond to them.
Only intercourse is real sex
There are so many varieties of sexuality! Take advantage of them and do not always limit yourself exclusively to sexual intercourse. After all, you can come to orgasm without it! There are no limits to your imagination. (Unless the wishes and needs of the partner are violated).
Sex is no longer for older people
Enjoying and experiencing sexuality is by no means tied to age. There are many older and old people who still have sex! And this does not in the least violate any social norms.
Impotence cannot be prevented in old age
Potency usually decreases with age, but there are still many men who were very potent until old age. Potency disorders can therefore also be treated in this phase of life! Counselling, diagnostics and treatment are all services provided by the statutory health insurance companies, only the medication has to be paid for by the patient.
What influences your potency?
There are numerous factors that influence potency. These are listed below.
Psyche
The psyche is primarily responsible for the man's ability to realize his sexual potential. If the psyche is disturbed, this often has an effect on his sexual life and his potency. Stress and sexual performance are related.
For example, occupational stress can have an effect on one's own sexuality. Of course, there is also sexual stress: fear of failure ("This time it has to work!") or the unconditional will to achieve maximum physical performance. Insecurity, lack of self-confidence, fears - all these trigger emotional pressure and lead to physical tension.
Therapeutic help is recommended for men who suffer from considerable permanent psychological disorders. This means that if you have the feeling that your own problems lie very deep and cannot be solved easily and by your own efforts, it is advisable to seek medical help instead of always carrying these problems around with you.
Often, however, relaxation exercises can help to relieve psychological and physical tension. There are also various rules of conduct that contribute to a more fulfilled sexuality and potency, such as expressing wishes and needs, being responsive to your partner or even rejecting sexual desires.
Think about it:
Relaxation and mental balance is the first requirement for sexual potency!
Health
Physical health is one of the basic prerequisites for sexual potency. With increasing age, physical fitness diminishes; this is accompanied by a reduction in potency. Appropriate training can counteract both! However, before doing the exercises and methods mentioned in this book, it is strongly recommended to have a checkup by a doctor (urologist, cardiologist).
Regular check-ups are of course just as important.
Take the time to listen to your body, notice complaints and, above all, take them seriously, avoid medication as far as possible and cure the physical complaints. Of course, medication also has an influence on sexual energy!
Especially arteriosclerosis (calcification of the blood vessels) has a considerable effect on sexual potency, because the walls of the vessels in the pelvic and penile arteries also calcify. This has various causes and can be caused by overweight, smoking, high blood pressure, high blood fat and cholesterol levels and diabetes (diabetes).
Partnership
Your potency is to a considerable extent dependent on your partner. The sexual stimulus is not only based on visual stimuli, but also on appearance, smell and language.
The sexual experience is also very important: inexperience (not only that of your partner, but also your own) can of course have a negative effect on your potency. Communication is especially important: Don't make a secret of your sexual desires (both), talk openly about what you want and what you don't like.
A sensitive and empathetic partner is extremely important for a harmonious sexuality and for overcoming possible potency problems. A partner who knows how to deal with you when there are small phases of weakness, who (just like you) respects and respects your sexual desires, strengths and weaknesses.
The sexual excitability of your partner is of course also important. A well-functioning communication and responding to the respective sexual desires (and dislikes) can also positively influence the potency of your partner (and thus ultimately your own). Sex is a togetherness. You have to harmonize with each other if you want to lead a happy sex life with your partner in the long run.
