Why Delayed Ejaculation Is Hard to Solve

Men fantasize about this sexual dysfunction. In reality, it may not deliver the experience you or your partner were hoping for.

It’s a random Wednesday afternoon. My girlfriend and I are having yet another conversation about sex.

“So. Babe?”

“What’s up.”

“Can you be a little less Kanye in bed?”

This is not a question you want to hear from your girlfriend. What does that even mean? Be less arrogant? Less MAGA? And why is she bringing up Kanye in the middle of a conversation about sex?

“What are you talking about?”

“You didn’t hear about the Kanye sex tape?”

I Google “Kanye sex tape” and find an article from 2012. A video of Kanye West having sex with a Kim Kardashian lookalike made the rounds, and many were marveling at Kanye’s 40 minutes of uninterrupted stroking.

“So, what’s the problem?” I ask.

“The problem is sex shouldn’t take that long.”

What?
