3. N/A

4. N/A

5. N/A

6. Frankly, anywhere except my clothes is fine with me.

1. Why? um…read my answer to #6!! It just feels better to still be getting stimulated as you are ejaculating.

2. I just don’t care. By that point I am already satisfied.

I have question ReverseCowgirl

Ok your having sex. Right as you reach orgasm, the guys stops stimulating you.  
Would you care?

There is a product called Ogoplex that is claimed to increase the volume (known as “The Ropes” in Europe).

sample of one of many product sites:

> What exactly are the ropes?  
> In the European sexual underground, the term ropes applies to the number of physical ejaculatory contractions a man has during an orgasm — the more contractions (ropes), the longer and better the orgasm. In a typical orgasm, men experience 4–7 ropes, while most men who take Ogöplex daily report that their ropes increase significantly — some up to 12–15 per orgasm!\*

I can make no personal voucher for this product, just passing along as an FYI

There’s some back story to this, I apoligize…

A while back 2 female friends of mine played a prank on me that involved sending me instructions on how to apply a condom. After about a week of plotting I finally decided that the best revenge would be to mix up a batch of fake ejaculate (just really salty water, really), inject it into a condom and present it to them and leave them under the impression that the condom-contents were not fake. I had filled the thing with what I thought was a reasonable amount and I happened to give my ‘present’ to the second pranker in the presencer of her roommate and she said “Eww! If a guy ever jizzed that much…” or something to that effect, so I garnered the impression that less was better…

1. Nope, it’s her call. I’m just greatful to be on the receiving end…

2. Nope, once it is out of me it doesn’t matter. Spit, swallow, quilt a blanket with it. Don’t care.

3. N/A

4. N/A

5. N/A

6. Depends on the partner, the position, mood, etc. etc.

My honest first reaction upon reading the thread title:

“Only if the bedroom door’s open.”

Just for statistical purposes, I’m one more guy who’s never heard another guy even mention the subject in passing.

I think that in most cases, especially the oral ones, most women don’t care, and if they do, they’re not so excited about more.

My girlfriend commented to me the first time she went down on me that it was good that I didn’t have the “choking spurt” action going on- made it much easier for her to do her thing. Of course, I’d disciplined the wayward simian earlier in the day, so it was a bit weaker than usual.

How do you think John Keats’ fiancee felt when she heard he’d died from consumption worlds away from her?

Oh. Volume? Eh. Unless I’ve gone without for two weeks or more, volume doesn’t change drastically.

Of course I would, which is why I make sure I keep stimulating my man when he reaches orgasm, no matter what we are doing.
