PREMATURE EJACULATION – TYPICAL EXAMPLE

March 11, 2009

During his life nearly every man finds that at times he ejaculates very quickly. This is normal. Stress, a particularly exciting erotic encounter, or tension may result in premature ejaculation, which ceases when the particular stimulus ceases. It is only when a man consistently ejaculates too quickly that he has a real sexual dysfunction.

A typical example of this pattern of sexual disability is shown by the case of John.

Most of John’s sexual knowledge was obtained by listening to his friends talking and boasting about their real or imagined sexual exploits. When he was 17 he met a girl and a love-affair began.

As the affair developed, John and his girl began petting and this got heavier. They were both inexperienced and both tense. Sometimes after intense kissing, John fondled the girl’s breasts while she rubbed his erect penis, through his unzipped trousers. Because both were concerned about the consequences of sexual intercourse, the next step, as sexual tensions rose, was for John to lie upon her, his clothes relatively in place, and to mime sexual intercourse, without any attempt at vaginal penetration. As the purpose of this, both for John and for his partner, was to obtain a rapid release of sexual tension, John was quickly stimulated to ejaculation by the mock-sexual intercourse. He was learning a pattern of sexual behaviour, namely that once his penis was in his partner’s vagina, ejaculation was expected to occur at once.
