Understanding His Orgasm

Author: Milena | Posted: 16.08.2008

Male anatomy seems pretty basic: the testicles produce the sperm that is ejaculated out of the penis during intercourse. However, to truly understand the male orgasm, you’ll need a better idea of how everything works.

The Penis

The penis is comprised of a number of parts: the shaft, the urethra, the corpus spongiosum and a large number of sensitive nerve endings. At the head of the penis is the glans, which is covered with the foreskin in uncircumcised men. During erection, blood is carried to the penis, causing it to become erect. When a man climaxes, semen shoots from the urethra, which otherwise carries urine from the bladder.

Most men enjoy having their penis stimulated by manual and oral stimulation. The many nerve endings surrounding the shaft of the penis respond pleasurably to moist friction, such as with vaginal or anal intercourse, or when using a penis pump or masturbator. Because the penis is so sensitive, it’s best to use lube.

The Testicles

Suspended from the body by the spermatic cord and resting inside the scrotum, the testicles are the male sex organs; most men have two testes. After the testes produce sperm, it travels through the vas deferens, seminal vesicles and prostate, collecting testosterone, seminal fluid and prostate fluid, all of which combine to form semen.

Although the testicles and scrotum are very sensitive to pain, they are also sensitive to gentle, pleasurable touch. Many men enjoy having their testicles and scrotum fondled, kissed and licked. Cock and ball toys perform a variety of sensations: pressure, tightening, vibration and moist friction.

The Prostate

About the size and shape of a small egg, the prostate is a small gland that excretes the fluid that helps guide sperm to their biological target: seminal fluid is comprised of 5% sperm and 95% prostate fluid. Nestled in the man's pubic bone and surrounded by the pelvic muscles, the prostate gland responds—usually very positively!—to pressure applied through the rectum.

The prostate is also a very sensitive area, much like the female G-spot, that many men enjoy having stimulated. Because the prostate feels good when you press it, many men enjoy having their prostates stimulated during oral sex or intercourse. Prostate toys make this job easier, as do women's G-Spot toys. Just make sure you select a toy with a flared base.

Putting it All Together

Unless your only goal is to reproduce, you’ll want to extend the amount of time before he climaxes—for a number of reasons, not only because it will give the receiving partner time to climax during intercourse. But if you are focusing on his pleasure, keep in mind that stretching out the foreplay heightens his arousal, as does stopping all stimulation when he is about to come. The longer he takes to ejaculate, the more intense the sensations. Allow his pleasure to build and build, and he will have a more powerful orgasm. Try stimulating his penis and testicles during manual or oral play, and then just before he climaxes, insert a finger or an anal toy into his rectum and apply pressure to the prostate. The resulting orgasm should be explosive.
