What’s something about male bodies that women don’t understand?
As a woman, there’s lots of things about our bodies that men don’t understand- I’m curious if there’s anything about your bodies that we don’t understand. Men and women are inherently different, and sometimes there can be misunderstandings or lack of knowledge when it comes to the opposite gender’s body. Let’s dive into some common misconceptions or misunderstandings that women may have about male bodies and explore practical solutions to bridge the gap of understanding.
Male Emotions
- Women often perceive men as being less emotional or expressive. However, men experience a wide range of emotions just like women do. They may simply express their emotions differently or feel societal pressure to appear strong and stoic.
- Solution: Encourage open communication and create a safe space for men to express their feelings without judgment or criticism.
Male Physical Health
- Women may not fully comprehend the unique health challenges that men face, such as prostate issues or male pattern baldness. Men’s bodies go through distinct changes and have specific health needs that differ from women.
- Solution: Educate yourself about male anatomy and health issues to have a better understanding and support the men in your life by encouraging regular check-ups and healthy habits.
Male Body Image
- Body image issues affect men too, but they are often overlooked or dismissed. Men may struggle with societal expectations of having a muscular and toned physique, leading to body insecurities and self-esteem issues.
- Solution: Promote body positivity and challenge traditional notions of masculinity by celebrating diverse male body types and encouraging self-acceptance.
Conclusion
By acknowledging and addressing misunderstandings about male bodies, women can cultivate deeper empathy and understanding towards the men in their lives. It’s essential to engage in open and honest conversations, educate ourselves about male experiences, and support each other in navigating the complexities of gender differences.
Let’s continue the dialogue and strive to create a more inclusive and empathetic society where everyone’s unique experiences and perspectives are valued and respected.
Sometimes we can be hard but not horny or in the mood for sex.
Being able to move our penises without touching it. Every woman that’s seen me do this has been surprised by it; and I’m not referring to like swinging it back and forth.
Certain touches to the dick or around it will automatically make it jump and women think we do it on purpose.
Sitting on your own nuts is probably the closest thing to death I can think of.
Based off a thread where men were sharing their experiences of sexual assault, women don’t understand that an erection doesn’t equal consent.
Slept with somebody (28) when I was 22 who hadn’t slept with a dude since she had her son, which was the only dude. Like 10 years prior. She didn’t understand that I needed like 10-15 minutes cooldown before another round. She just poked at it and was bewildered that it was going down. She has been with only women between those two times.
Just how truly light of an impact it takes on our balls, to buckle us over.
we can’t control our height
Morning wood doesn’t make me a perv that only thinks about sex. If you only knew the weird stance I’m about to have to take so that I don’t piss on the wall
What it feels like to have 20 times as much testosterone. T is a very psychoactive chemical.
We spread our legs so our testicles aren’t compressed…
Getting kicked in the balls actually hurts all over
I’m agreeing with: having a hardon doesn’t always mean we’re horny & like wise, we can be horny without a hardon. It took my wife a couple years to understand that. Morning wood is an unconscious reaction of our body & doesn’t always mean we want a morning romp. Although I personally have never turned down a morning mounting!
Sometimes a BJ doesn’t excite us!
When we pee, it’s not always a steady and streamline. When we start peeing, sometimes it can be unpredictable where the pee first goes.
After rubbing a few out we can get hard
Doesnt mean we will spit out anything more than a sigh
There seems to be a large lack of understanding that having muscles for aesthetics and having muscles for strength are two seperate things, and that having the aesthetically pleasing “super hero” body is extremely taxing on the body and the individuals physical health
Hard does not mean we want sex. One time I was very anxious, sleeping in the same bed with a girl and I just wanted to sleep. I was hard and she noticed. She was teasing me by hugging me and rubbing her leg over my crotch.
I get she wanted to please me, but that moment I was very anxious and did not enjoy her giving me a blowjob. I just tried to let it happen and finish and acted as if I wanted it. But in reality I was very anxious and just wanted to sleep. I did came and she was very proud and we went to sleep. It was not her fault, we usually do these things and normally I would like it. But again, I was very anxious of some stuff that has happened so she did not know.
But yeah, hard does not mean we want it.
Having all of that testosterone. Yes, it makes you irritable, competitive, physically strong, impatient, etc. It’s also not monthly. It’s 24 hours a day for roughly 20 years and in a world where guys are constantly being told to suppress it that’s not good.
Prostate health
There is no on/off switch for a hardon.
That we enjoy being pampered, touched, foreplay, etc. as much as women. The idea that we’re akin to a light switch and will be turned on or feel satisfied with little to no effort needs to go away.
Evidently there’s a lot of men and women, both, that don’t know that men don’t actually empty their balls when they ejaculate.
That we’re (or worse, *should* be) perpetually horny, 24-7-365.
My ex got furious one evening because I came home from work to find her in some incredibly sexy lingerie, candles, the whole nine yards. In a vacuum, it was incredible.
Problem was, that 12-hour day at work was brutal. I had been up since 3:30am and didn’t make it home until 6:30pm. I was exhausted, spent.
Because I wasn’t in the mood, it devastated her.
Just cause we are strong doesn’t mean your easy to carry, we only have one back and we need it for the rest of our lives.
My fiancé was absolutely horrified when she learned that my ballsack will sometimes just stick to my leg and need to be peeled off carefully to avoid hurting myself lol
My wife can’t figure out how I’m not constantly sitting on my balls. It just doesn’t happen.
tbh i haven’t met a single female in my life who understands a man’s mental health.
An erection doesn’t feel good on its own. Had a woman who thought it felt good without anything happening simply because of an erection.
Condoms are not a one size fits all no matter how much water you can fit in it or which vegetables you’ve seen being put in there…
Condoms don’t work like that for men
I was sick last week and was able to impart the knowledge of “feverballs” to my gf, ie. If you’re freezing cold but your balls are hanging low af, you got a fever homie.
Plenty of good points in here.
My wife grew up in a female household so it’s been tough educating her in actual development of a young man’s hormones as it soon has grown up.
Waves of testosterone hit hard. There doesn’t need to be a real trigger as anything can be a trigger. The sun, the wind, that person with the eye, it’s just tense and waiting.
That our dicks are secretly opposable and when you aren’t looking we use it to pick things up and cook with it and click buttons on the remote and stuff
I suspect many women think men have more control over erections and how long we last in bed than we really do. Like I don’t last 3 minutes in bed sometimes because I WANT it to be over or because I’m too tired. It just feels good and orgasm is an automatic response to that. And after ejaculation, all desire for sex drains from my body. It’s not a lack of “stamina.” It’s just post-nut clarity when the testosterone fog clears.
I did sleep with one woman who was similar to this where she was just DONE after orgasm. That was weird. It made me more sympathetic to women who are left hanging after men ejaculate.
A lot of us are incredibly hurt by things but we aren’t allowed to show it nor do we have the kinda circle or people around us that a lot of women are fortunate to have as emotional support. I was very emotionally deprived and touch starved for a good two or three years in my life, all I wanted was a hug or a cuddle, I went and found a cuddle therapist a paid for a couple sessions with her and it did me so much good it was the start of my healing. I had to do that cus I had zero friends and no partner at that time in my life.
