Conversely, sexual intercourse on a regular basis protects against ED issues and the risk of ED is inversely related to the frequency of intercourse.
In the absence of regular sexual activity, disuse atrophy (wasting away with a decline in anatomy and function) of the penile erectile tissues can occur, resulting in a de-conditioned and smaller penis that does not function like it used to.įactoid: Disuse Atrophy…If one goes too long without an erection, collagen, smooth muscle, elastin and other erectile tissues may become compromised, resulting in a loss of penile length and girth and limiting one’s ability to achieve an erection. However, like any other body part, the penis needs to be used on a regular basis-the way nature intended-in order to maintain its health. With aging (and poor lifestyle habits) also comes declining sexual function and activity as rigid erections going by the wayside. The solution to having a recessed penis that is often hidden from sight and has lost its aiming capabilities is to sit on the toilet bowl to urinate, joining the leagues of our female companions who are “stream-challenged” because of their anatomy. By excreting on their legs, the birds use urine evaporation to cool themselves down in the process of “urohidrosis.” Unless you are a turkey vulture, peeing on yourself or others is rather undesirable! Īlmost Useless Factoid: Water Sports…Turkey vultures pee on themselves to deal with the heat of the summer on their dark feathers, since they lack sweat glands.
One of the problems with a shorter and more internal penis is that the forceful and precise urinary stream of yesteryear gives way to a spraying and dribbling-quality stream that can drip down one’s legs, spray over the floor and onto one’s feet (and even at times towards or on the gentleman next to you at the urinal!). Useful Factoid: The Angry Inch…It is estimated that there is a one-inch loss in apparent penile length with every 35 lbs. This is why having a plus-sized figure is not a good thing when it comes to size matters. Many middle-aged men typically gain a few pounds a year, ultimately developing a bit of a pubic fat pad–the male equivalent of the female mons pubis– and before you know it the penis appears shorter and becomes an “innie” as opposed to an “outie.” In actuality, penile length is usually more-or-less preserved, with the penis merely hiding behind the fat pad, the “turtle effect.” Lose the fat and presto…the penis reappears. However, the ravages of time (and poor lifestyle habits) can wreak havoc on penile anatomy and function. As well, we still desire to be able to urinate standing upright with laser-like urinary stream precision. Long after our reproductive years are over and fatherhood is no longer a consideration, most men still wish to be able to achieve a decent-enough erection to have sexual intercourse. “Getting older is an honor and a privilege, but getting old is a burden.”īeverly Radow (my aunt, who will turn 90-years-old this year) The Sometimes Cruel Process of Aging Does Not Spare the Penis “ The water tap that could turn into a pillar of fire.” All that fun, but really serving the purpose of the passage of genetic material and ultimately the perpetuation of our species…reproductive wizardry! Getting beyond the urinary, the most dramatic penis magic is its ability to change its form in a matter of seconds, morphing into an erect “proud soldier” and enabling the wherewithal for vaginal penetration and with sufficient stimulation, for ejaculation. Many find the outdoor voiding experience pleasing, observing the pleasant sounds and visuals of a forceful stream striking our target (often a tree) with finesse, creating rivulets and cascades to show for our efforts. Although man does not often have to employ this, the capability (when necessary) of urinating outside is another benefit of our design. The possession of a penis endows man with the ability to stand to urinate and direct his urinary stream, a distinct advantage over the clumsy apparatus of the fairer sex that generates a spraying, poor-directed stream that demands sitting down on a toilet seat. The advantage of being able to stand to urinate (and keep one’s body appropriately distanced from the horrors of many public toilets) is priceless. The penis is an extraordinary organ with urinary, sexual and reproductive functions. As Multi-Functional as a Swiss Army Knife
