45 and usually 5 to 7 per week. One less than a 1/2 hour ago. Wife and I thankfully have a great sex life. She still makes me melt every time I look at her. I feel as if I am the luckiest man in the world. I always feel wanted and needed. Life is good, better than I deserve!

Probably averaging about 10/week.

Wow, this must be a sensitive topic for many women. The usual ratio of female respondants is around 45 % as in the telephone calls poll I recently posted, but at present with 83 votes, only 13 females have responded. That means two out of three female posters who would normally vote elected to refrain from voting.

That’sa incredible ! Its only two for me at 61 years of age. It used to be at a minimum twice a day. Next time I see a doctor, I’m going to find out whats wrong with me. I worry that if I don’t use it I lose it. Perhaps I need testosterone supplementation.

You can either try supplements or lying on anonymous polls. Either one should work just as well.
