ORIGINAL: Tuomas I'd like to address this 5- 6 hour myth. Medically speaking, having an erection for more than 6 hours causes permanent damage to the penis. Anthing more than four hours is not recommended. There is a reason why there is a warning printed on the back of Viagra bottles. Tuomas, since you address me specifically I will respond. Read what I said in post #29 "I have had several lovers who were able to be erect after orgasm within a short period of time and/or who could maintain a stiff erection for hours." Specifically I mentioned men who are able to regain an erection after orgasm quickly and also be erect for hours. Nowhere did I claim 5-6 hours constantly erect. That having been said, it's perfectly possible for men to have sex sessions in excess of 6 hours, where he looses his erection for five or ten minutes, allowing blood recirculation and oxigenating the corpora cavernosa. A lot of people confuse the two, and it's possible to forget that for a short period, the male of the sketch had a flaccid penis. Answered above. Also, you have to factor in the macho bit, who exaggerate sexual prowess, and the women part trying make other women jealous of their "long" sexual experiences. However, don't let this bragging goad you into doing something that can be detrimental to your health. There is no bragging going on here and no danger to anyone's health, Tuomas. Rather this a very frank discussion about erection quality and quantity. Err, I quick replied, don't know why your name came up, since I wasn't going over the topic with a fine tooth comb. However, there are people who do injure themselves regularly because of trying be "better in bed". Not only using mechanical means, but using other kinds of stimulants or over stimulating themselves or their partner in an effort to "match up" with their acquaintances who claim impossibly long sexual overtures. The situation, imo, is made worse by people being unwilling to point out their own experiences of never "keeping it up for 5 hours" because people might ridicule them, and thus promoting the misconception that people have fantastic sexlives. If you are not part of this group, then there is no need for you to feel identified. But I have seen people who have ended up causing themselves serious harm because they missunderstood what people were saying with "five hour sex sessions", or because they believed people's bragging. Not to mention the emotional stress they go through trying to live up to impossible expectations. So, yeah, I might be a bit snappy when it comes to this subject, so sorry. If you are having fun with your sessions, and it's what you and your partner like, then that's great. It shouldn't matter what some random idiot -like me- says on a forum. Be yourself and do what you enjoy. And that goes double for those people who read what you have to say, and think they are missing out on something...
