I’m going to limp into this post, because although I should soft pedal my reaction, it’s hard to penetrate the sheath that protects my annoyance, even with a shaft of acknowledgment … a nod of the head, so to speak … toward a need to sit up and take notice of what, for some, is a thorny issue.
It’s this piece from the BBC that has me juiced up today about …
A spray [that] can help men with premature ejaculation problems prolong the length of time they have sex by six times …
… The spray, developed at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast, contains local anaesthetics that numb the penis.
Okay, okay … premature ejaculation is a problem for some men. I’m sure it has all sorts of negative impacts, and I don’t mean to belittle those, but I can’t help but hear strains of “SIX TIMES AS LONG … BWAH!!!!!” coming from guys who would be just as thrilled if it was size, not time, on offer, or, even better, both.
Sorry, but this seems to be more a guy thing than a couples thing.
It’s been reported that a “premature ejaculation gene” has been found, so apparently the apparatus delivers the goods regardless the duration. (And I won’t even venture toward the part of the story that has this research conducted in Ireland … a country where women have for centuries been popping out babies every 10 months or so … )
Quite frankly … and, girls, please tell me if I’m wrong on this … there are SO many ways to compensate for for limited thrusting time, and none that I know of get complaints.
Get with the program, doods. In this age of Viagra, more sensitization, rather than less, would be more climactic.

Um, somehow I just don’t think “anesthetic spray” and “sex” are a logical combination for a satisfying experience for anyone.
Really, guys, use your imaginations. And other things. Get creative. Do we really need to spell this out here?
Is that about the long and short of it, S.? Have I gone deep into the core of the matter?
I should admit that I’m giggling like a 12 year old as I type this. Thanks for the laugh! I needed one.
Thanks for cutting to the meat of the matter, Coco!
It depends on how “premature” is being defined. My best ever sex was with a pre-mature ejaculator, but it wasn’t, and couldn’t be, intercourse. Any time we tried that he came immediately—thrusting wasn’t a possibility, penetration was, IIRC, never fully achieved. In a weird way, I liked it—I mean, it didn’t leave any doubt as to how much he enjoyed it—but I think of him to this day and wonder if he has ever been able to really have sex. I hope he has. He was so good with everything else:)
Oh, hell, I’ll be the one to point out the big white elephant in the room –
Where are all the men who go down?
Did they have a convention and decide to phase that out?
Did I miss the memo?
WTF guys?!
