      Need to add - change how she responds to his inability to climax. If he’s staying harder she should appreciate his ability to continue until she’s done and express that appreciation to him. Also experiment with different positions, it can make an immense difference. She said they are inexperience - if they haven’t already they should try oral. Husband will be able to focus on pleasing her while his erection, or lack thereof, is irrelevant. I imagine learning how much he can please her may help him resolve or at least manage his emotional trauma. Certainly would help provide her the release she so clearly craves.

There was just no chemistry whatsoever and he was terrible in bed (hasty, selfish). After we broke up I met the man who was to become my husband. Crazy chemistry.

      @@listrahtes If you're getting married for sexual compatibility, you shouldn't get married. I'm a Christian man and I'm waiting for marriage to have sex with my wife and I don't care who I marry, how good she looks. I'll flirt with her, I'll dance with her, I'll cook with her, I'll play chess with her. There are other things you can do to gauge your physical chemistry with someone other than sex. Your way makes you more inclined to choose someone amazing in bed but those people tend not to be amazing in other areas of a marriage. In fact, I hope my wife doesn't know what she's doing because that means she won't have been run through like your wife or you. Sorry but you have to get the experience somewhere. Where did you or your wife get it? Sure, the first few years of my marriage might not be good in bed but I don't give a damn, I'll be with her for 60 years. I'll train her the way I want, I'll build the chemistry with her. My wife is gonna make my breakfast every morning and sit on my face every night, and guys like you will be complaining about how dumb your wife is and how she wastes your time and money, and the only reason you stay is because she gives good head. Like, that's stupid. My point is, if I like the way a girl dances with me, how she moves her hips, I can see how she'll be in bed. You can just tell. I've even asked girls, "do you know how to twerk?" in a flirty/joking way. My favourite response is when she's shy about it and changes the subject but every photo she takes of her self, she poses like an Instagram model. The girls who say yes and send a video for proof, sure they might be better for me sexually, but if she sends me that video, how many other guys also have it?

    • @EmpressMermaid
      @EmpressMermaid 6 місяців тому +4

      You're very correct there, families often don't truly see the process for what it really is. While I greatly admire families who take in foster kids, quite a few go into it as a means to go "baby shopping." They can then start to see their desires for fulfillment as more important than what's best for the child. It should never be an adopted child's place to "fill that void in our hearts" or ease their heartbreak from infertility. The whole dynamic can become unhealthy at that point.

    • @filipefigueiredo9847

      Adopting a child with all sorts of mental health issues sounds to me like the perfect definition of "complicating your life and justifying why"
      Hell, having your own biological child, healthy both physically and mentally, will always add some complexity to your relationship and force the parents to adjust to the new reality (i.e., it's hard enough)
      While I admire couples who adopt kids and try to do their best, I personally don't think I would ever sign up for this (and if I did I migh end up resenting both my wife and the kid)

    As the wife it is okay to make the moves. Put the devices away, get naked, and pounce on your husband. How is a sexual connection supposed to ever get to the point of satisfaction if no one is even attempting to face the uncomfortable facts. Facts being the excuses of why your sex life suck are simply because you haven’t given yourselves the opportunity to create a good sexual connection. The more you have sex, the more vulnerable, honest, and transparent you are naked body to naked body…clearly learning each other can only lead to a good sex life for the marriage.

We have no reason to conclude that this woman is incompetent in the use of the English language as well. Second, she is clear that the man is not able to climax and thus not able to ejaculate and this has nothing to do with ED. There is no pancake so thin as to only have one side, yet you are willing to make such biased uninformed rushed judgements without hearing from the husband and based upon such a paucity of information as we have it in this narrative.

    • @neechee5150
      @neechee5150 29 днів тому

      @rachelsickels5273 There is no evidence that the issue here is the husbands ED. First off, the reason why the couple was not able to have kids was due to the husbands infertility. Infertility does not equal ED. Second, this woman is competent in the use of the English language and she makes it clear that the issue is that her husband can not climax and thus not ejaculate. This is not ED. However you try to conflate these two things with the man having ED and using porn which is not supported by any evidence in the narrative. Then there is the fact that there is no pancake so thin as to only have one side and this situation is most definitely not a one sided pancake. Yet you and most of the female posters on this video have clearly demonstrated a rush to judgement without even considering how important it would be to let the man tell his side of the story before you judge this man.

    First question should have been, "what kind of shape are you in?" Honestly it should be the first question in a lot of these calls. Being overweight or obese exacerbates EVERYTHING. Including mental health issues. But if youre tired all the time and dont want to have sex and youre overweight? Hmm... Something to think about at least and losing weight is something people can do without medical intervention. Not to mention from the mans point of view being overweight lowers testosterone, raises estrogen levels, contributes to ED... Plus having sex while fat is just difficult and its hard to have good sex whem your too tired or winded to get into the swing of things so to speak. Plus if youre not physically attracted to each other because one or both of you are fat.
    Would have been my first question...

It's a horrible addiction as Dr. John knows. You're husband also sounds like a dismissive avoidant. Pornography will also cause ED. Buy the book by Gary Wilsons Your Brain on porn. Doctors will medicate but never ask the right questions. Good luck!

    • @neechee5150
      @neechee5150 29 днів тому

      @holliee8070 You are making some very biased assumptions that are not based upon the facts as we know them and that have the flavor of sexism. First off if you listened to the entire narrative, you would have known that the couple's fertility issue was due to the husband. Infertility and ED are not the same thing, and there is no reason to suspect that this woman is not sufficiently competent in the use of the English language to not know the difference between ED and not being able to climax. Second if you listened to the entire narrative you would know that the sexual problem is that the man can not achieve orgasm and thus can not ejaculate. Once again this is NOT ED. I think one of the best things that women could experience in terms of fostering true gender equality and true gender equality based ethics as well as to help women understand what men have to go through would be for women's sexual performance to be evaluated, criticized and graded to the same standards that men are. If a woman can not get sufficient naturally lubricated with in X minutes of the start of sexual activity then she has female ED. If she can not stay sufficiently lubricated for the average duration of sex or longer then she has female premature ejaculation. If she can not control her PC muscles for the duration of sex then she is impotent and a premature ejaculator as well. If women's sexual performance was evaluated, critiqued and graded to the same standards that men (especially by women) are many women would be labeled with all kinds of sexual dysfunction labels and as impotent. As it stands all a woman has to do is show up anything more than that is a bonus and optional for women.
      There simply is NO evidence or part of the narrative that suggests that the issue here is the husbands ED, yet you have gone off on a whole series of judgements of this man and recommended "solutions" even though you are not practicing urologist or sexual medicine specialist nor have you ever examined the man as well. Dr John is not an MD or DO nor is he a MD with a specialty but the MD who was working with this couple surrounding the fertility issues was most likely as specialist and they wanted to do a procedure. The doctor did not say this for his or her personal amusement. Dr John started to go down the path of practicing outside of his license and that is very unprofessional.

First, the husband is either sub fertile or infertile and that is why they had to adopt. Second the woman came out and said that this issue is that her husband can not climax and ejaculate most of the time. Neither of these two issues remotely resemble phimosis.
