Rising to the Occasion
Let’s dive right into as many euphemisms, low-hanging jokes, and anything else to get into what usually can be an uncomfortable topic but is necessary to address.
No one wants this issue, but it happens far too often not to bring it up.
Reasons for Erectile Dysfunction
1. Porn
Long has it been said by your local pastor or even your parents to stay away from the adult magazines and websites for moral reasons.
Recently much research has been brought to light about how porn impacts physiological, psychological, and relationships.
It turns out, porn can be a factor of E.D.: “In one neuroscientific study on compulsive pornography consumers, researchers found that in 11 out of 19 subjects, porn consumption had lowered the consumers’ sex drive and/or ability to maintain arousal in real-life sexual encounters, yet were still able to sexually respond to porn.”
2. Stress
Being overly stressed in general or even stress around your arousal can induce a spiral and leave you and your partner wanting more.
