Relax guys! There is no need for you to worry, sometimes the way you use it values more.

Men are more concerned with penis size than women are

The research made in 2007 by the British Journal of Urology International clarified the idea that women do not seem as concerned about the size of the penis as men are. Women are more concerned about how they are satisfied in bed, and not by the methods or the instruments used.

Faking the orgasm?

Men do not seem to know exactly when their lady is satisfied and when she is not. While 85% of men think their partner had an orgasm the last time they had sex, only 64% of females confirmed the idea. As a result, the major discrepancies between what men think and what actually happens to women raises some major question marks.

Most women need clitoris stimulation in order for them to get to their climax. For the majority of the women involved in this experiment the vaginal stimulation was not enough. So guys, pay attention and get to work!

Whether we talk about the importance of the penis size, the size of the labia or how often actually men do think about sex, it all resumes to scientific studies that should be taken into consideration. All in all, a fact is undoubtedly certain; sex feeds us with enough energy to forget even the worst problems we have.
