""I honestly feel like it’s some weird, hyper masculine competition where guys are taught that the longer they stay erect the more of a strong man they are. ""

Oh heavens no. I cannot tell you how many women freaked out when my dick would go semi soft during a long sex session. These women were genuinely insulted that my penis dared not be full mast at all times, even when I was pleasuring them. This is not some macho masculine thing. A hard-at-all-times penis is what women are demanding. Female ignorance of male anatomy seems to be rampant

I think she meant “the longer they stay erect” in the sense of “without ejaculating,” not in the sense of “without losing their erection”…?

Her point was about how long sex does or doesn’t need to last, not about the ability to keep it up for however long that is. I’m sure she would concede that the latter is important.

This conclusion is as bad as the first. Men are constantly told by society "don't be a minuteman". "Don't be a one pump chump". She is trivializing the social pressures that man are put under to perform, which she shamefully dismisses...."t’s some weird, hyper masculine competition", as if men are sitting around trying to outdo each other in some weird homosexual competition. There are readily identifiable reasons why men do not want to climax too quickly. But the author is too hung up on shaming men to see it

Dear me

One really wonders about modern American women. One does hope they are not all self absorbed sluts.
