Myth 3

PREMATURE EJACULATION IS UNMANLY

Many men are conscious and worried about early ejaculation though, one need not to be panicky about it. Its only natural to have ejaculation as and when it happens. In the absence of actual facts and enough information, men end up taking a negative approach towards solving this issue by distracting themselves with non-sexual thoughts. At times men also develop a feeling of disassociation and distance from their partner. Practices like these can only harm a relationship rather than doing any good.

It is very important for an individual to be emotionally present during the act hence, one should steer clear of all the inhibitions or notions regarding ejaculation or any other issue while making love. The appropriate way of managing a man's anxiety regarding his performance is by talking to him about it. The partners can indulge in some constructive discussion about it and get rid of such inhibitions. Tantric sex exploration is another effective way of learning the techniques to control ejaculation.


Myth 4

GOOD LOOKING PEOPLE HAVE BETTER SEX

It is rather foolish to have an opinion that beautiful people have better sex. Sex begins in brain and practically it has got nothing to do with the physical appearance. Sex can be a disaster if you keep comparing yourself with the people more beautiful than you.
