Men Tips

Sexual satisfaction is the elusive quality we are all searching for and only seldom find. Sex is for many the big question that makes or breaks relationships, lives, opportunities and choices. It is firmly rooted in both the physical and psychological parts of the human being and it depends on the good functioning of both to deliver satisfaction. But what happens when one of the two pillars is unable to perform its role as it should? What happens when the entire structure is under threat? Unfortunately, the answer is not encouraging.

Premature ejaculation is the most common sexual problem in men. Alfred Kinsey, the famous American father of sexology, found during the string of studies conducted between 1948 and 1953 that three quarters of men ejaculate within the first two minutes of penetration in more than 50 percent of their sexual encounters. An estimated 30 percent of all men can not last longer in bed more than a few seconds in most sexual encounters. This makes premature ejaculation a huge problem for many men and couples. Actually, the problem with premature ejaculation is that it spoils all the fun for both partners. Nobody wants to put an end to a pleasurable activity too early.

Most of those suffering from premature ejaculation are younger men, who have less control over their bodies and less experience. Nearly every man has been unable to control himself at least once during his sex life and almost always during the first sexual encounter when lack of experience makes holding back difficult. However, severe cases of premature ejaculation do not go away on their own, but continue well into the adult years. The results of this weakness on the physical side of sex tend to spill over into the psychological side, undermining confidence and self esteem and triggering patterns of depression.

It’s perfectly clear that inexperience is one of the biggest causes of premature ejaculation, followed by a weak PC muscle and a faster than normal neurological response in the pelvic muscles. Well, inexperience can only be cured with more sex, which is something we heartily recommend to everybody, while the muscles located in the pelvic area can be trained as any other muscle in the body to stop acting on their own. The PC muscle stands for the pubococcygeus muscle. This muscle acts as floor to the entire pelvic area of the body, supporting from underneath the weight of organs. It also controls orgasm and prolonged exercising helps men achieve orgasm without ejaculating.

Still, premature ejaculation can be prevented or treated by working out the PC muscle and bringing it under your control. When you have full control of this muscle, premature ejaculation is no longer a problem for you. Penis exercises, like Kegels or those featured in the Penis Health database, focus on ejaculation control at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels for people who are willing to rid themselves of this unfortunate condition once and for all. The trick is to have confidence in yourself and in your strength to make premature ejaculation a thing of the past.

As the old saying goes “It’s the thought that counts”, but in reality even the most well intentioned toaster isn’t going to get the desired reaction. Why men continue to buy these types of gifts for their wives baffles most women. But men, if you think that you need to enlist the help of a personal shopper to find something nice for your wife, think again.

You may never get a gold medal for gift giving, you can certainly improve the message you send to your wife.

Budget: The budget is perhaps the most important aspect of any gift you are going to give your special lady. Economic times are tough, and people are cutting back everywhere they can, but that doesn’t mean that you have to be cheap with the lady you love. So whatever you decide you are willing to spend, add 20%. You spared no expense when courting her, so now that you’ve married her, you need to show her that she is even more special.

Selection: Many men consider this to be the hardest part, finding something that there wife or fiancee would like. This will really take some thought. But with a little effort, and a few simple guidelines, you can look like a gift-giving rock star, instead of looking like you got gift advice from a box of cracker jacks. Giving gifts for a potentially romantic occasion-and aren’t they all, or at least that’s the goal-things like a new refrigerator will not elicit the desire response. Instead of snuggling up with her, you’ll likely be snuggling with the couch cushions. Things like perfumes are a good choice, just make sure you get a good one.

If it comes in an aerosol can the size of a can of hairspray, move on. Jewelry is another good choice; just make sure it comes from the case, not the spinner rack at the discount store. Other things to avoid would be dining anywhere that a teenage says the words “can I take your order” standing behind a cash register, giving her something that you want, like that box set of football highlights, or anything that would require you to say the words “just kidding” after she sees it.

Sizing: If you plan on buying your wife or girlfriend clothing of some kind, knowing her size is critical. And guys, this is a slippery slope. If you don’t absolutely, without a doubt know her size… DON’T GUESS! If you end up getting a size that is too small she will take it to mean that you think she needs to lose weight to fit into it and if it’s too big, she will think that you think she is huge and that she needs to lose weight.

A better idea would be to take her shopping with you and let her pick something out and try it on. If she likes more than one item, remember this is America, buy them all!

Time for Shopping: It is a cliche that men always wait until the last minute to shop for anything, or they forget altogether. Well cliches become cliche because they are usually true as a general observation. Don’t wait until the last minute to go shopping for the perfect gift, because you may find that the perfect gift is gone, by the time you get your lazy butt around to shopping for it. Instead, if you find that you forgot to go shopping, here’s what you do. Act indignant as if you’d ordered it and expected it to arrive on time. Then storm out of the house as if you are going to go remedy the problem immediately and head straight to the nearest shopping mall. Buy her something nice, have it gift wrapped, and then bring it home and explain that you couldn’t stand the thought of her not having a gift for whatever special occasion that it is and that you discovered that the store lost your order for the other gift. Be careful not to use this too often or she’ll catch on, but in a pinch, it could save you from sleeping on the couch for a month.

Timing: Timing is crucial when giving your lady a special gift. Somehow it just doesn’t feel the same if you hand her a new diamond bracelet while she’s on the phone coordinating the PTA as it does when it’s just the two of you with a nice bottle of wine in front of a fire. It’s also less likely to get you “thanked” if you know what I mean. This part will have to be tailored to your lovely’s taste. If she thinks the fire and wine would be hokey, go for beer and barbeque… whatever would make her happy and finds the two of you with a few private, quiet moments.

Last But Not Least: Remember to always save the receipt. It’s quite possible that despite all your efforts, she won’t like the gift anyway, and if that’s the case you can always take it back. In fact many stores offer gift receipts that don’t show prices so that you can just include it with the gift when you wrap it.

Remember that it really is the thought that counts, so as long as you put the effort in to buy her something nice, she’ll always appreciate it.

Though many of the actions and conversations that take place between two people dictate that if common sense and courtesy are used, all should be well; this can be a tall order when nerves and the unexpected are added to the mix.

Knowing which words will get another person’s attention enough to draw their interest to you may not be enough if you obliterate whatever chemistry you’ve built up by making a common dating blunder. Many people with dating questions over look the fact that coming across well requires not only taking action and getting noticed, but remembering not to do anything that may spoil the progress you’ve made.

The well known idea of “being yourself” can be applied to a good portion of dating, but consider the idea that this “self” you’re showing may not be how others see it. One must always remember that the image one hopes to present is tried against the perception of others and these may not always be alike. Though you may hope that a certain trait is endearing or an excellent part of your character, a person who doesn’t know you well may miss this completely and make a negative assumption about you.

Understanding then that every word you say and every action you take is then open to interpretation you begin to see these things you do not as a deliberate part of your character, but through the eyes of an outsider.

Once this is understood a great deal of progress can be made in improving upon those unique traits that make you who you are and how they come across to others. Being sure that the other singles you meet do get a chance to find out about you before you hit them with anything too extreme is often an essential in the dating world.

Top Five Mistakes Single Men Make:

* The Cocky Come-on: Though it is well known that confidence is an appealing trait in a man for most singles, trying to portray this trait is tricky. If a man shows too much confidence he appears to be egotistical and arrogant and this can just as easily turn people away as get their attention. Balance you healthy amount of confidence with a modesty that allows other to approach you and you may find yourself a happier man.

Fix It: Remember to be confident when approaching a single, but also maintain some level of vulnerability that allows that person some leeway on making up their mind about you.

* Desperation Declaration: In some cases loud, dramatic, even embarrassing displays may be the appropriate action to take in getting an attractive single’s attention; in most cases however this tactic is looked upon as a desperate act of a man who doesn’t take the individual he’s hitting on very seriously, so much as making a game out of the pursuit.

Announcing to some complete stranger that you would be willing to sacrifice your pride just to get their attention does not often work the way it does on the big screen and more often ends with an uncomfortable smile and retreat from the target. Though your intention may be to show this person that you are confident enough to be silly and find them interesting enough to risk a little laughter, you may not get the chance to prove your strengths with this approach.

Fix It: Real life is not a film; grand, elaborate gestures can become twisted up and perceived in the wrong way. Allow the person a chance to get to know you before taking this risk in 99% of dating situations.

* Persistence Pay Out: Some men believe that if they continue to push their way into a conversation with an attractive single that eventually this persistence will wear that person down. Not only is this act often looked upon as desperate, but has little chance of allowing the person to look past this initial meeting toward any other pleasant traits that might be lurking under the surface. Many singles may even allow the man’s participation in their discussion, a seat at the table, or at the bar, but in likelihood this approach has painted you into the corner of unattractive before you’ve had much of a chance to share.

Fix It: If your opening introduction or line doesn’t do the trick, walk away and be polite about it. In many cases if you remain in plain view, with some flirtatious, but somewhat aloof eye contact you may get another chance.

* Show Quality Ribbon: The balance between making it known that you have qualities that other singles would be likely to find attractive and simply sounding as though you’re bragging is not easily maintained. Many men who come across as though they are trying to show off are simply acting upon the very same instinct human’s have been acting upon for thousands of years: the need to impress.

Whether this display is through physical strength or perhaps a subtle hint at wealth the idea is to attract a sexy single by making use of what he has. Without this display many men would get passed up and yet with it, certain assumptions are made about ego.

Fix It: When attempting to reveal qualities about yourself which you hope will attract singles remember to be as subtle as possible. Strength is often attractive, a large ego, the opposite.

* Insult and Ridicule: Though for many guys tips on how to approach a single may not extend too deeply into the conversation, there are some conversational blunders that seem to come up again and again. One such trait that is quite common can present itself at nearly any time, or multiple times in a conversation; this is the tendency for men to find objects of ridicule in order to appear stronger.

Boasting about your strength because you have found another person to pick on is not often the best way to win another person’s affections. Whether it pertains to brains or brawn, most singles are not going to be impressed with your comparisons, nor your desire to make fun of others.

Fix It: Curb any habits of insulting others in order to show off and find other ways to advertise your abilities to those potentially romantic interests.

Understanding when these mistakes are made and why even the best of intentions, or attractive of personal traits, can be perceived as dating blunders can help to save you from a great deal of embarrassment and help your chances to meet and get to know other singles. More importantly, knowing what not to do in the dating world gives others an opportunity to get to know the real you.

Groomsmen are most likely your best friends that you want to recognize by selecting them for a place of honor in your wedding. They are the ones who will stand at your side as you begin your wedded life. These are guys who you will have had a history with. It could be that you all hunted together, played ball together, partied together and perhaps even chased girls together.

Now that your bachelor days are over you will want to give your groomsmen gifts that are unique and that reflect your appreciation of them. Recognize that each of your friends has individual taste and select the groomsmen gifts with that thought in mind. The gifts need not be identical for all the men. Try to pick something meaningful and memorable for each individual.

Swiss Army Knives
For the handy man or outdoors type a Swiss Army knife is the universal multi-tool. It is useful and practical. You can personalize them with engravings to reinforce how special these men are to you. Almost everyone finds themselves searching for a tool on a daily basis. A Swiss Army knife is convenient because it is so many tools all in one. This is a great choice for the groomsmen.

Shot Glasses and Flasks
Shot glasses, flasks and beer steins make wonderful gifts for those who imbibe. Any of these gifts can be personalized by engraving or etching the wedding date or a thank you from the groom.

Tickets
For those groomsmen that are into sports such as baseball, hockey or football, the groom could give a gift of tickets to games. For the sophisticates in the group, tickets to a concert or opera would be very welcome. Tickets for an enjoyed activity are always a welcome treat.

Poker Sets
For the card playing groomsmen choose game-related gifts like personalized playing cards. They may also enjoy receiving an exclusive poker set complete with playing cards and chips in a carrying case.

Road Trip
In lieu of giving each groomsman a gift, the groom may decide to plan a male bonding road trip. To celebrate his last outing with the guys before his marriage, the groom could plan a camping, fishing or road trip. Include all the men from the wedding party and celebrate your friendships. If the groom chooses to give a gift to commemorate this outing, a great choice would be for him to give each man a compass with personalized engravings.

As a groom you will want the gifts you give to be memorable and personal. This gift represents the friendship between you and your groomsmen; you want it to reflect your feelings. Put some thought and planning into your selections but do remember to have fun shopping for and picking gifts. Your wedding should be a time for joy and celebration. Your friends will appreciate your gift regardless of what you choose. It truly is the thought that counts.
