“This is not serious, it will work better next time “… Feared, the sexual failure affects almost all men at least once in their life. But this event would be much more common in the macho, suggests a study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

The researchers of the university of Minho (Portugal) have reached this conclusion after having interviewed 300 heterosexual men and 300 gay men on their sexual life and their vision of manhood.

Then it appeared that the participants endorse proudly the myth of the macho and ensuring “that a real man, often has sexual relations,” or “that a man is always ready for a sexual relationship” were more a lack of libido and erectile dysfunction.

A myth that is too heavy to wear

It must be said that the role of nice kid, a tireless and sexually insatiable is exhausting in the long run. Even if they say that a real man must be able to hold an erection for as long as it takes to satisfy his or her partner, they are forced to see that their body is not always in agreement. Their reproductive system, their learn sometimes humility.

The authors of the study underline, indeed, that these men seek before everything the performance to sexual pleasure. So when a failure could not be more banal arises, macho trouble and their ego takes a blow. It is then impossible to concentrate on something else and are overwhelmed by the anxiety.

Dramatize

A serious error, since it is necessary to overcome this frustration to resolve this small problem of course, explain all of the sexologists. The dialogue between the partners is also valuable for you to erase this feeling of helplessness.

If these troubles persist for longer than 3 months, experts advise couples to consult a sex therapist. Because erection problems are not only psychological, they can be of physical origin.
