			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>A cock ring or <a href="http://www.theloveshop.com/shop/Cock-Rings-and-Toys-p-1-c-283.html"><em>cockring</em></a> is a ring that is placed around a man&#8217;s penis, usually at the base, primarily to slow the leakage of blood from the erect penile tissue, thus maintaining erection for longer. Cock rings can be worn around just the penis or penis and scrotum, or just the scrotum alone, though this is usually designated as a testicle cuff. Rings can be made of a variety of different materials, most commonly leather, rubber, or silicone, though nylon and metal are also used either as the main component or part of the closure.<br />
A man may wear a <a href="http://www.theloveshop.com/shop/Cock-Rings-and-Toys-p-1-c-283.html"><em>cock ring</em></a> because he has erectile dysfunction (ED) or otherwise wants to prolong erection, as a sex toy because he likes the particular sensation of tightness and extreme engorgement that wearing one provides, or as jewelry, simply for the appearance. When used for ED, a vacuum pump is used to produce an erection in spite of vascular or nerve damage, and the ring slid off the pump&#8217;s cylinder onto the base of the penis to maintain the erection.<br />
Some models include a protruding clitoral stimulator, designed to tickle the clitoris, vulva or anus during sex. Others, such as the <a href="http://www.theloveshop.com/shop/Cock-Rings-and-Toys-p-1-c-283.html"><em>Vibrating ring</em></a>, vibrate, either vibrating the ring itself, or in a popular &#8216;Dolphin&#8217; variant using two removable bullet vibrators to provide stimulation to the testicles and clitoris. Some cock rings have vibrators attached which can be worn to stimulate the scrotum or perineum or a partner during sexual intercourse. Another variation is an inflatable cock ring for added control of adjustment.<br />
A triple cock ring or triple crown is a cock ring that has additional rings for restraining the testicles. In orgasm, the testicles usually retract towards the body before ejaculation. A triple crown changes and intensifies the sensation of orgasm by forcing the testicles to stay away from the body.<br />
Cock rings that are too tight, or worn for too long can be dangerous: this may cause priapism, a medical emergency which, if not treated promptly, can result in severe and permanent damage, including penile gangrene which can result in the destruction of the penis. Rings for ED are invariably supplied with the instruction that they should not be left on for more than 30 minutes. Falling asleep with a ring on is a particular danger.<br />
Elastic, stretchy, <a href="http://www.theloveshop.com/shop/Cock-Rings-and-Toys-p-1-c-283.html"><em>cock rings</em></a> are removed by stretching them and pulling them off the penis, over the head, which can be difficult. Others have a quick-release mechanism allowing them to be easily removed without the need to do this. Some (not for ED) are designed to allow limited blood return, such as by hard beads which cause the ring to roll back and forth during use, increasing circulation.<br />
When used for extreme or total ED, it must be possible to fit the ring onto the erect penis immediately after an erection has been produced by the pump; this practically mandates the use of very flexible rings which can be fitted on the outside of the pump&#8217;s cylinder, and slid onto the penis without removing it from the cylinder when erection has been maintained.<br />
Some underwear for men features a pouch with an internal fabric/elastic cock ring, or &#8220;c-ring&#8221;, that either slides along the penis and encircles the base of the testicles or, alternately, simply snaps around the base of the testicles to snugly&#8211;but not in a constricting way&#8211;attach the pouch to the genitals. While this type of pouch permits the wearer to &#8220;go backless,&#8221; c-ring pouches can be attached to either a thong or traditional jockstrap.<br />
Some men enjoy using cock rings for masturbation, as wearing of this sex toy contributes to better erection and delays orgasm, thus it intensifies orgasmic sensations. Also vibrating cock rings deliver a great range of very pleasurable vibrations that enhance enjoyment.<br />
Many women find rings with vibrator attachments provide clitoral stimulation that is needed for achieving orgasm. Cock ring users should keep in mind that any pain, discomfort or feeling of coldness in genitals is a signal to take the cock ring off. <a href="http://www.theloveshop.com/shop/Cock-Rings-and-Toys-p-1-c-283.html"><em>Cock rings</em></a> must not be used by those who have cardiovascular problems, by diabetics and by those who take any blood-thinning medications.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a href="http://www.penisdevelopment101.com/affiliates/penisextender.html">Straighter the better</a> &#8211; A penis is considered one of the most important organs a male’s got. Statistics actually prove that men are affected by the way their penis looks and also works.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.penisdevelopment101.com/affiliates/penisextender.html"><img src="http://www.penisdevelopment101.com/straight-penis.jpg" alt="straight penis" /></a></p>
<p>Mans sexuality is defined by his penis. It serves as a tool that satisfies both female and male with sexual pleasure and desire. The penis is one of the most significant organs in promoting procreation.</p>
<p>Besides from the shape of the penis and the size, both are very important to a male. A man would do just about anything to get the shape of his penis the way he wants it. Either way the shap and size of the penis can determine the success of the male whilst having intercourse.</p>
<p>A penis normally isn’t straight. Most penis’s have a slight bend in them. It is very rare to get a penis that is straight with no bend in them. The curving of the penis are caused by a lot of factors, one in which could be genetics, since it is the genes that dictate a males existence (physical), it could be that the shape of the penis they have can be inherited by an ancestor. Same goes for the colour as well.</p>
<p>An accident can cause the penis to curve an could get worse. A disease call Peyronie’s can cause the penis to curve as well, where this is very serious and will need proper medication before it gets worse.</p>
<p>A straight penis does look good, where females are more inclined to have intercourse with the man who has a straight penis. A turn off for women is a penis with peculiar shape, some can be turned off during sex and others just wont go there at all.</p>
<p>Its hard to imagine how odd shaped penis can penetrate a small vagina hole. If a guy has a curved penis, it can be very painful for both women and male whilst during intercourse. Although the advantage of having a crocked penis has its advantages due to the sensation it brings entering the vagina.</p>
<p>Having a straight penis does help in attracting women, which can be effortless with the satisfactions.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The vagina itself is a very elastic environment which can expand on average to ~10 centimetres (4 in) in diameter during childbirth, and it also easily retains a tampon. Thus a woman&#8217;s vagina can tightly accommodate most penises from relatively small to large. It will generally accommodate and adjust to the object it surrounds. Discomfort can sometimes be experienced with unusually large objects, but the vagina can, over time, adapt.<br />
According to Louanne Cole Weston, PhD licensed counselor, and sex therapist, in a May 2002 report by WebMD; several misconceptions have developed surrounding penile-vaginal intercourse. Cultural preferences may have exaggerated the importance of deep vaginal penetration in obtaining female orgasm.</p>
<p>The most sensitive area of the vagina is the section closest to the outside of a woman&#8217;s body, which is roughly 10 centimetres (4 in) in length. Given that the average penis size is above this length, most men should be able to easily reach and stimulate these erotic nerve endings.<br />
In stark contrast, minor surgery without aesthetic can be conducted on the inner portion of a woman&#8217;s vagina without discomfort. Most women attest to a feeling of being &#8220;filled up&#8221; by larger than average penises, yet few can claim to feel erotic sensations in the deeper regions of the vagina Some writers have claimed that a shorter than average penis might better stimulate the G-spot, however the actual existence of the g-spot is doubted by most researchers.</p>
<p>Some women have reported enjoying stimulation of the cervix, although this may be confused with the anterior fornix (deepest point of vagina above cervix) or posterior fornix (back of vagina, behind cervix). The cervix, fornix, and cul-de-sac are within close proximity of each other, so there may be indirect and/or simultaneous stimulation between them.<br />
The fornix is said to be another possible orgasm trigger area. Tests have shown that pressure on this area causes the vagina to lubricate very quickly. The area of sexual response in the anterior fornix has also been called the epicentre, T-Spot, AFE-Zone, AFE or A-Spot; while in the posterior fornix it has been called epicentre (as well) or cul-de-sac (since the cul-de-sac may be indirectly stimulated by pressure on the posterior fornix).</p>
<p>No matter the size of a man&#8217;s penis it takes a level of skill to stimulate the anterior fornix. The man with a shorter penis may also be able to stimulate the anterior fornix using some advantageous positions, which shorten the distance to the uterus.</p>
<p>Long penises (over ~20 centimetres (8 in)) can be susceptible to rubbing on, or striking, the cervix, which has been described as being rather uncomfortable, or sometimes painful. Over-stretching the back of the vagina can also cause discomfort, and this may be mistaken for cervix pain. Thus very long penises sometimes cannot be fully inserted. The exact depth depends on both anatomical dimensions and arousal of the woman, as well as the sexual technique used.</p>
<p>During sexual intercourse, the vagina lengthens rapidly after initial insertion from about 10 to 14 cm (4 to 5.5 in), but the final and initial depths vary from woman to woman ±2.5 cm (±1 in). The vagina (with proper arousal) will stretch to envelop larger sizes (up to a point) — about 19–23 cm (7.5–9 in) maximum on average (although more may be accommodated with long-term adaptation). As the woman becomes fully aroused the vagina tents (last ²⁄₃ expands in length and width) while the cervix retracts, meaning that with the right penetration angle long penises will slide over or under the cervix without directly hitting it (instead stretching the back of the vagina or anterior/posterior fornix). Enough foreplay to produce full arousal is generally needed to ready a woman for penetration by a large penis — although this same amount of foreplay is often recommended regardless of the man&#8217;s penis size. While a long penis normally isn&#8217;t a hindrance, there&#8217;s little to suggest it&#8217;s advantageous either.</p>
<p>A thicker penis may provide more friction against the vestibular bulbs, which are located in close proximity and anteriorly on either side of the urethra.</p>
<p>Women have confirmed in surveys the primary focus of the clitoris in sexual stimulation. Roughly three-quarters of women surveyed have reported difficulty reaching orgasm by vaginal intercourse alone, and just 7% are able to do this on most occasions. Many report requiring simultaneous clitoral and vaginal stimulation — regardless of the dimensions of the inserted object.</p>
<p>A penis whose stretched flaccid length is more than approximately 2.5 standard deviations below average size for the age group but otherwise formed normally is referred to in a medical context as a micropenis. Some of the identifiable causes are deficiency of pituitary growth hormone and/or gonadotropins, mild degrees of androgen insensitivity a variety of genetic syndromes, and variations in certain Homeobox genes. Some types of micropenis can be improved with growth hormone or testosterone treatment in early childhood. Penis-enlargement self-treatments are not effective for this condition</p>
<p>The smallest penis on record was reported in a medical journal by researchers from Oxford University&#8217;s Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics. The researchers noted that patient &#8220;Alfred,&#8221; a male musician, in his early 30s, from Oxfordshire, UK &#8220;possessed a penis almost indistinguishable from a clitoris.&#8221; Currently there is much debate in the medical community as to whether patient &#8220;Alfred&#8221; was actually male or intersexed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This Come from one of my visitor great article more to come</p>
<p>In some cultures, mass hysteria involving the believed removal or shrinking of the penis has been observed (genital retraction syndrome).</p>
<p>Many beliefs in popular hold that it is possible to predict the size of someone&#8217;s penis by observing other features. The features usually selected are the hands the feet, the nose or height. One urban legend suggests that the size of a fully erect penis is the length from the tip of a man&#8217;s thumb to the tip of his index finger, when a 90° angle is made with these two digits. (An alternative formulation is that this indicates the flaccid penis&#8217;s length.)</p>
<p>The suggested link between penis size, foot size and height has been investigated by a relatively small number of groups. Two of these studies have suggested a link between penis size and foot size, while the most recent report dismissed these findings.</p>
<p>One of the studies suggesting a link relied on the subjects measuring the size of their own penis, which may well be inaccurate. The second study found statistically significant although &#8220;weak&#8221; correlation between the size of the stretched penis and foot size and height A potential explanation for these observations is that the development of the penis in an embryo is controlled by some of the same Hox genes (in particular HOXA13 and HOXD13) as those that control the development of the limbs. Mutations of some Hox genes that control the growth of limbs cause malformed genitalia (hand–foot–genital syndrome). However the most recent investigation failed to find any evidence for a link between shoe size and stretched penis size. Given the large number of genes which control the development of the human body shape, and the effects of hormones during childhood and adolescence, it would seem unlikely that an accurate prediction of penis size could be made by measuring a different part of the human body.<br />
Other studies correlating the size of the human penis with other factors have given intriguing results. Notably one study analysing the self-reported Kinsey data set found that homosexual men had statistically larger penises than their heterosexual counterparts.</p>
<p>One potential explanation given is a difference in the exposure to androgen hormones in the developing embryo. The study author&#8217;s opinion is that evidence points towards both orientations being equally likely to exaggerate.</p>
<p>Recently, there has been greater media attention to the issue of penis size and women being more vocal about their preferences. Television shows such as Sex and the City and Alley  McBeal  popularised the penis-size issue when characters in these TV shows stated their preference for well-endowed men and rejected men who had only average endowment. In HBO&#8217;s Sex and the City a female character is portrayed crying in bed when she experiences her boyfriend&#8217;s penis for the first time and discovers that it is below average length, as opposed to the large length she had expected and anticipated.</p>
<p>Surveys of women&#8217;s actual preference have consistently shown that penis size is only a priority for a minority of women, and some women dislike large penises. In recent years, penis pumps, pills, and other dubious means of penis enlargement have had increased sales.</p>
<p>One source of continued debate is the extent to which heterosexual and bisexual women actually prefer certain penis sizes. In a 2005 UCLA study, 85% of women said they were &#8220;very satisfied&#8221; with their romantic partner&#8217;s size.</p>
<p>A study published in BMC Women&#8217;s Health, surveyed women&#8217;s preferences concerning penis size and concluded that width rather than length is a more important factor of sexual stimulation.</p>
<p>Another study, conducted at Groningen University Hospital, asked 375 sexually active women (who had recently given birth) the importance of penis size and concluded: &#8220;Although clearly in the minority, a nevertheless considerable percentage of the women respondents attached substantial importance to the size of the male sexual organ&#8221;.</p>
