Male Impotence and Women

Skinback

Should a man who is impotent call it a day in the romance stakes or has such a man still something to offer a woman and should he be encouraged to try dating services or even just dating?

Hi OP, Of course you shouldn't give up on romance, Concentrate on what you have to
offer a women, love, friendship, kindness etc are all hugely important and in my opinion
more important than sex, Honestly don't give up if the women cares for you it shouldn't
matter. Have you visited your GP?

He should go and talk to his dr.

Just because you're impotent doesn't mean you can't (regularly) pleasure your lady love and keep her (and you vicariously) satisfied. Lesbians seem to manage pretty well.

OP as has been suggested you should talk to your GP first and foremost, there's plenty of ways to solve potency issues these days.

For the sake of clarity; are there any conditions under which you can become erect? And if there are can you identify anything that happens which leads to loss of said erection?

More specifically, see how comfortable your skin is around the glands (helmet) of your penis. A foreskin which is too tight can often lead to difficulties, and considerable pain/discomfort for men, and inevitable loss of erection.

If this applies to you then it may be solved with relative ease. Failing that go and make an appointment with your GP, tell him exactly what's happening, and he should be able to suggest a consultation or something to help you work this out.

For the record any man who says they've never had to deal with this is lying through their teeth so try not to let it get you down

You can still have an emotional relationship with a woman and explore other ways of fulfilling each other. Use this time to discover new ways to enjoy a relationship with a patient caring woman rather than worrying about impotence. In the meantime see your doctor about the physical problem but it needn't be a barrier to an emotionally fulfilling relationship for the time being.

I thought impotence was an obsolete term these days (sounds so negative). Isn't it ED nowadays?

As to the original question, I would think that there are quite a few women out there who are not very sexual, where they could be a good match with you if you don't manage to solve your issue in some way. There would even be some no-sex dating websites out there. So all is not lost.

(I once read that a statistical fact is that around 1% of the population at large is asexual, meaning they have no sexual urges whatsoever. - Admittedly, this isn't the same as having problems such as yours, but does tie in with it a bit.)
