Tell that to my buddy. His wife encouraged him to get a vasectomy after 3 kids, so he did. Turns out, she had been cheating on him for at least a year before that. He's divorced and lost now. She retained custody and is remarried to the other guy now. And that's my married w/ vasectomy story.

Yeah, the only way I can see that happening is if you're lacking in girth so the condom is loose or in length so it doesn't have far to roll up. Maybe a properly fitted condom would come off if there's no lubrication going on in there so the condom is sticking to the vaginal walls and peeling up on withdrawal, but that's a whole other level of uncomfortable. I'll be generous, and assume that if this isn't just stdh.txt then Faerunner is buying Magnums to show off when he really doesn't need them.

I just drew the picture, mllaneza was the one who lost the condom. LOL.

What are people's experience of using oil or oil-based lubes? The prospect of not needing to reapply lube is appealing, but I've heard it's more trouble to use as well. I have a penis if it matters.

I use coconut oil fairly regularly both for solo and penetrative sex. Cheap, easy to find, solid below ~75 degrees, lubricates well, does not wash off in use but is easy to clean with soap/water or a towel and is a good moisturizer to boot.

We ended up completely replacing silicone-based lubricant with it, mainly for cost and ease of cleanup.

As far as I know. We don't usually incorporate toys that need to be lubricated first but a quick google search seems to indicate its safe.

If he stops jerking and starts loving he’ll eventually figure it out

I'm not a therapist but you should not do anything you're not comfortable with, especially with your previous comment of "pretty dark" stuff.

Therapy is probably your best bet, good luck! I think him not wanking it at all is a good idea, if he's still conditioned to busting only from his own hands then he needs a break. Is he okay with not orgasming during sex?

An average adult human male, with the normal hormonal balance and no physiological issues, who hasn't had an orgasm in weeks (or days, depends on the person) will have no trouble doing so at the touch of a gentle breeze or vagina. Even if currently he's used to whacking off several times a day.

If he can't stop himself from jerking it for long enough to build up to that point, that's a psychological thing he needs to work through, but it's not a physical problem.

16pcCutlerySet posted:

You think just stopping jerkin altogether is beneficial? Seems like that might get painful?

Yes, and it won't. It might get psychologically unbearable, at which point you have sex and he discovers oh wow i guess this works too

Im hoping thats the case but its been months now and nothing has changed aside from him saying it feels "better". You think just stopping jerkin altogether is beneficial? Seems like that might get painful?

He's looking at therapists now but seeing as he works full time and none of them seem to do weekends its proving pretty hard. Ive helped write some potential emails to professionals just this week so hoping he gets the help he needs.

I just dont want to make things worse somehow - as a result of the addiction he has some pretty... dark tastes. Should we avoid them? Im not entirely comfortable with them but if it helps him recover I'm all for it.

Don't do anything you're not comfortable with, period.

So, with that out of the way, he should definitely be trying to masturbate less, but going cold turkey is probably a bad idea; he'll likely be miserable and it won't stick. The good news is it's 100% a psychological issue; he's conditioned his body to only orgasm in a very specific way, and that conditioning can be reversed. I've heard some people have success with fleshlight-type toys to help, since it makes your masturbation more like sex, and while I'm a little skeptical of that myself, it couldn't hurt. You could also try masturbating together, along that same logic of making masturbation and sex more similar to help his brain cross that gap.

For now though, it sounds like you both have enjoyable sex where you both cum, which is more important than the specifics of how that happens. Not to diminish the concern, it's valid, but just saying to keep it all in perspective.

Yeah man, absolutely. Thanks for that especially.

Cheers though everyone, got some ideas to work off. Think the therapy is an unavoidable necessity as well from the sounds of it so will get on that asap.

This is the one we have: https://www.goodvibes.com/s/sex-toys/p/GV13516/magic-wand/magic-wand-rechargeable

It's made by Hitachi, they just don't have their name on it these days. I can't imagine using a wired model.

Also, it's actually very good on your back and shoulders.

Goes months sometimes depending how much we use it. Unless you're trying some kind of tantric vibrator thing where it needs to run for four hours continuously, you should be good.

And yeah, it works while charging, too.


This toy is basically a cheat code for sex.

Second this recommendation. This thing is the size of my forearm, is a step down from blow dryer in noise levels, and means business. It is very efficient at getting someone off.

Some people find the vibrations too strong even on the lowest setting, but putting a t-shirt or towel between you and it solves that pretty easily.

The speed settings are good too. I think on the OG model you had to get a lamp dimmer switch if you wanted control. It's got 4 patterns also.

I'm a vagina haver undergoing hormone replacement therapy with testosterone, and as a result my clit is getting larger. This is fine and good, but now it seems like I'm having trouble peeling the hood back, which is also causing some smegma buildup. How do I peel back the hood without it hurting so I can clean properly?

May be your coming at it wrong. Perhaps try and poke something in there now to clean it (like a wet q-tip)?

Trans dude here- perhaps try using lube to help. I remember during this painful stage I only ever attempted that in the shower/bath and the water seemed to help. Worst case scenario you might have a dirty clit dick for awhile but I do not think that is anything that will harm you. I am not a doctor tho just a fellow vagina dick hybrid haver.
