Sexual Myths and Misinformation

An additional psychological cause of erection problems in many young men and some older men is due to anxiety caused by belief in erection myths. It’s surprising how much these myths can affect us even if we know consciously that they’re not true. Don’t get taken in by them. If you are concerned about your sexual life, don’t suffer in silence, talk honestly and openly to your partner and if necessary, seek professional advice together. Here are the most common sexual myths, and the truth about them: Myth 1: Size matters. Fact: This tops the list as THE most common concern for men. Most men wonder about their size in comparison to other men, often relying on locker room or adult film comparisons. Based on this flawed information, you might conclude that your penis doesn’t measure up, or isn’t good enough – either too small (or perhaps even too large, but that’s rarely the case), not shaped right, or just not normal. The fact is that penises and testicles come in a variety of shapes and sizes. It’s important to understand that when not erect, penises can appear to be quite different in size, but while erect, their sizes are much more similar. Since few men see each other’s erect penises except in adult films, they seldom have a realistic basis for comparison. Adult film producers often hire actors on the basis of unusual size, enhanced through camera angles, with lean abdominals to optimize exposed penis length, and with shaved genitals to give the appearance of larger size. No wonder men may feel inadequate.
