Talking about erection hardness, or sex for that matter has always been a taboo subject in Malaysia, where more often than not it will induce giggles or squirming actions when brought up. Well, a couple of weeks back, I was invited by Pfizer to catch one of their live discussion forum on "Demystifying Erection Hardness Beyond Sex".

Now, a quick background information on how this talk came about, and what is the topic about. According to the Pfizer’s Ideal Sex Survey 2011, Asian couples agreed overwhelmingly that quality of erection hardness and the ability to maintain an erection are the most important criteria in achieving an ideal sexual experience. Well, there's nothing really much to shout about here, but there was another fact that arose which piqued my interest.
There is actually a measurement standard for erection hardness – the Erection Hardness Scale (EHS).
"Since erection hardness is a fundamental component of erectile function, the availability of a simple parameter to measure erection hardness may prove useful in diagnosing the presence and severity of ED. The EHS is used to measure erection hardness during sexual intercourse. Grade 4 is the optimal erection hardness and it gives greater sexual satisfaction for both patients and partners. Doctors do use this tool for monitoring treatment outcomes."
Check out the varying state of hardness there! On exactly how to measure it, there wasn't an actual tool to measure, I guess we can just "feel" the hardness based on the degree above. This got me thinking, I wonder how many guys out there actually come out with an erection hardness of 4, the optimal erection number.
Sharing a laugh during the discussion on the psychological and physical aspects of men’s sexual health |
"Good news Malaysian women - most Malaysian men placed top priority on the importance of achieving and giving sexual satisfaction to their partners. They believe that all physical aspects in a sexual relationship such as quality of erection hardness at Grade 4, ability to maintain an erection, orgasm intensity, duration and frequency of sexual intercourse leads to more pleasurable sexual experiences for themselves and their partners."

This round, a prominent food blogger, Sue Lynn (Bangsarbabe.com) and her husband were brought in together with the experts Prof. Dr. Low Wah Yun (Professor of Psychology, University Malaya) and Prof. Dr. Ong Teng Aik (Consultant Urologist, University Malaya Medical Centre) to basically talk about her husband's erection and so forth.

Blogger Sue Lynn and her husband, Wei Jien who just got married recently agreed that while they are newly wedded couple, still enjoying the honeymoon period, the session opened their eyes to a different aspect of sexual intimacy.
“This is a very interesting topic and I applaud Pfizer for organizing a discussion session to educate the public on the importance of erection beyond just physical sex and how it can affect our intimacy, emotions and health as well,” said Sue Lynn.
When asked how he would handle a hypothetical situation of experiencing sub-optimal erection, the husband Wei Jien mentioned he hoped to never have the problem, but would definitely seek a doctor’s help should he ever have to face the issue.

Some finger food for us |
Overall, it was a rather fruitful discussion, as questions were thrown from the floor to our lovely couple. What I've learnt from this event was the fact that erectile disfunction (ED) is a problem every guy may have to face in the future, and shouldn't be swept under the rug. When so much is at stake, couples should not discount the issue of quality of erection hardness as it not affects the intimacy between a couple, but can affect the well being of the emotion and health. If in doubt, head to your nearest clinic immediately, I kid you not!

In all, I found the live forum very informative. Tackled all the 101 and 401 of men's erection about endurance.
ReplyDeleteWe should no longer wonder that individuals don't wish to buy something before seeking out several male enhancement reviews, and this is especially true with regards to shopping things on the internet. Richard
ReplyDeleteWe should never again ponder that people don't wish to purchase something before searching out a few male improvement surveys, and this is particularly valid concerning shopping things on the web.
