There have been several long standing myths about male reproductive organ which guys debate on. These are some of those myths.
Like your junk the way it is?
Then ditch your Droid. Keeping your cell
phone on you for the majority of the day may mess with your ability to
maintain an erection, according to new research presented at the recent
World Meeting on C*xual Medicine.
Researchers studied 30 men—20 with
erectile dysfunction, 10 without—to test whether there was a link
between excessive cell usage and erection issues. After screening the
men, researchers found that guys with ED kept their cells on them twice
as long as the men without any P *n!s problems.
Obviously this is a very small study,
but there are a lot of myths about the effects technology can have on
your manhood, and the researchers hope to inspire future investigations
on the subject, says lead study author Rany Shamloul, M.D., a specialist
in andrology and C*xual medicine at Ottowa Hospital in Canada.
While we await the definitive answer on
whether or not your BlackBerry kills your boner, here are four other
p*n!s myths wecan positively put to rest.
1. Daily ej@cul@tion hurts your swimmers.
According to a study that was up for
review by the journalFertility and Sterility, daily ejaculation may
damage your sperm’s DNA makeup. But while masturbating every day will
decrease the number of sperm in your ejaculate (and thereby “lighten
your load”), it really shouldn’t concern you unless you’re trying to get
your wife pregnant, says Men’s Healthurology expert Larry Lipshultz,
M.D. Hear that, bachelors? No need to destroy your porn stash.
2. The average erection is 8 inches.
Don’t measure up? Don’t worry. We aren’t
sure who started the rumor, but 8 inches is most definitely not the
standard. The average length of a pen!s is a much more manageable 5.5 to
6.2 inches long, according to a 2007 review published in the British
Journal of Urology International. But to her, size hardly matters. Men
are far more obsessed with their length and girth than women are. In
fact, only 9 percent of the ladies we talked to said the size of the
ship was most important for great se!x. Sixty-seven percent said
technique and slow-building friction — “the motion in the ocean” — was
most crucial for se!xual satisfaction.
3. Peeing sitting down is better for your bladder.
You may have heard you’ll be able to
empty your bladder more efficiently if you sit down to pee rather than
stand—a claim that comes straight from the Taiwan Minister, of all
people—but from where we’re standing, we’re pretty sure the urinal works
just fine. “In fact, a lot of men report the opposite,” says
Dr. Lipshultz. “When you sit to void, you’re creating a very acute
angle in the urethra—so standing is actually much more effective.”
4. Your semen is low-carb.
Although there’s plenty of research
investigating the health benefits of semen, telling your date that your
stuff is low-carb is not going to fly. (Unless you’ve been dying to have
drink thrown in your face.)“Semen is mostly fruit sugar [fructose] and enzymes—not low-carb,” says Marc Goldstein, M.D., a professor of reproductive medicine and urology at Cornell University’s Weill Medical College.
