The First Time
Let’s Talk! The first time was supposed to be magical, just like in the movies and romance novels. The man barely touched her, and both were already moaning with pleasure. A few pelvis thrusts later (in the missionary position!), and they came exactly at the same time. Actual fireworks could be heard in the background. […]
A Touchy Testicular Problem
Let’s Talk! Itâs a topic that makes most men reach down with protective hands to cover their private parts. The thought that their âfamily jewelsâ could be harmed in any way is too disturbing for most males. However, testicular cancer is the most common type of cancer in young men aged 15-35. When in 1996, […]
When Sperm Count
Let’s Talk! It is a topic that can make many men very uncomfortable. Sperm count is often linked to a man’s virility. After all, “shooting blanks” is not something that men will easily admit to. Unfortunately, during the past 70 years, there has been a steady decline in the sperm quality and quantity of males […]
PMS: You Are NOT Crazy
Let’s Talk! Itâs soon the âtime of the monthâ. For most women, the week before their period is not a happy one. Men are indirectly affected by this phase of a womanâs menstrual cycle by having to deal with a less pleasant partner. Most people have heard of PMS but, many may not know the […]
More Than a Pill
Let’s Talk! You may have used or currently use the pill as a birth control method. Your doctor might have given you some general recommendations for its proper use. However, you may not know how the pill actually prevents pregnancy or its other potential side effects. Most birth control pills are a combination of synthetic […]
Men Like It Harder
Let’s Talk! âThe little blue pillâ has become a punch line for many jokes since the maker of Viagra (Pfizer) put a very profitable drug on the market in the Spring of 1998. Of course, the fact that Viagra treats erectile dysfunction creates both an opportunity for humour but also gives hope for many men […]
Intimacy
Let’s Talk! “Sex is easy, but intimacy is difficult” recently said an acquaintance of mine. I agreed with him because sex may only involve the body, while emotional intimacy requires you to reveal the unseen that can put you in a vulnerable position. That’s why the word intimacy broken down means “into me see”. When […]
Please Dump the Frog!
Let’s Talk! You think “I can’t stand this guy”. Actually, you felt that way right from the moment your best friend Jennifer introduced Bob to you. It’s obvious to everyone around that he’s a bad seed that should have never been planted in Jennifer’s garden. Somehow, your friend perceives Bob as the Prince Charming who […]
HP What?
Let’s Talk! Itâs your annual exam and you are lying on your back. Your family doctor is about to examine your cervix and other sexual organs (i.e. vagina and ovaries). A metal instrument is inserted into your vagina to keep it open and to see your cervix. Then, your doctor uses a cotton-tipped swab to […]
