I read a few good books awhile ago that I found to be highly worthwhile
"Sperm Wars"
and
"To Bed or Not to Bed"
What i am sharing in this post is from these books and from my own experiences thereafter ... The books are extensively researched and written with the input from women who wanted to offer up some more "reality"... They are not just some guy's perspective on things...
In the books they talk about how interesting that humans like to think they are different and above other species on the planet but reading these had me realize that we perhaps are not so different as we think...
As men, I think we are looking for the experience of the "women in heat" sort of sex...I think many here would know what I am talking about...the peak experience when the amount of "turn on" is over the top...when your dick is so hard you can't resist...and an insane desire coming from the woman...
The vast majority of sex is not like this...while still good...more sort of a "routine" variety. I call it more of the "stress relief" variety of sex...to get a temporary break from the anxiety of life.
While the routine variety can still can be good ...it is not the same as the "animals in heat" sort of sex...where you cannot help but respond as a man the "pull" is so so strong...
In the books they talk about how nature is designed to cast the best DNA into the future and how so much around sex happens at a very subconscious and primal sort of level. . .there are prevalent "heat cycles" with females across many species...the strongest is the heat cycle during the Spring time, a smaller one in the Fall right before Winter and smaller ones prior to during ovulation. . .sort of the design in nature.
Times like these, when a female is in heat, sex is almost primal... Outside of these times, sex is more "social" or coming from more like an urge to get relief from some anxiety in life (for a relatively brief moment) before the anxiety starts building up again.
With age, and perhaps an increased capacity to handle stress, I have found I just don't get as easily excited as when I was younger... getting hard mainly when the "turn on" is real / primal (when a woman really wants it "authentically" and not going through the motions)...
The books talk about how the dick is like a truth detector that doesn't lie... and that true "Turn on" actually originates from the woman...and if she is not really turned on, you won't get hard...
I was confused by this earlier in life and think a lot of men are as well and highly victimized by this...beating themselves up when they cannot "perform". Of course, porn does not help and compounds the confusion... Men take Viagra or similar medication to stay hard even when a woman is not turned on or authentically wanting sex... It convolutes things in this way where men think "I should be getting hard" even though the examples they have learned from porn or the opinions from other men are not even real (just a fantasy) or unexamined.
But maybe there is nothing wrong when a guy doesn't get hard...just a sign that she perhaps doesn't want it in that moment...or there is something to be paying attention to...at least in that moment (which can change on a dime and the next moment is different). In one of the books, they talk about pulling back in these times... perhaps taking some time to stop and listen to her where feels "heard" and "known" (often leading to turn-on coming back since the authors say it is uncommon for a woman to have the experience of having a guy really listen fully and getting where she is at)... I know the "structure" of the sessions might not be conducive with artificial time constraints, but as one gets older and more aware, a guy prefers the experience where there is more connection...and engage where the turn-on is authentic... Which always seem to come around anyway .
When I was younger, I might not have wanted to hear or read this message, but found these books to be enlightening and liberating now... Hope someone else finds this useful...
