The anatomy of pleasure

The anatomy of pleasure

Ok. Let the veils fall and reveal our special guest today: the penis. I decided that it is time to clarify the misconceptions, myths and rumors that surrounds this pillar of our society. Let there be light!

Although the penis is the most visible part of the sexual mechanism that gives you that unforgettable pleasure, the truth is that he is not alone! It gets great help from some invisible parts, but he takes all the glory.

Which are the body organs involved in sexual mechanism?

The penis

No, there are no bones or muscles in the penis. But you can still move it or even brake it though. Unless you want to start a new urban legend, don't ever promise her that you will write her name with your penis.

The penis is made up primarily of spongy tissue, which becomes engorged with blood during erection. The image of a sponge getting enlarged with liquid is the best image compared to the mechanism behind erection.

Two or three inches of the penis are rooted inside the body in the pubococcygeus muscle (PC muscle). This muscles can be trained and strengthened to achieve stronger erections, more spectacular orgasms and better control over ejaculation.

The testicles

Testicles are outside of your body due to the fact that hot temperatures affects negatively the sperm production. The ejaculation will make testicles to move toward the body. The sperm is produced inside your testicles and constitutes actually only a small portion of the ejaculate.

The mechanism behind ejaculation involves sperm moving through the 'vas deferens', a firm tube that extends from your testicles to the prostate gland, where they mix with secretions to form your ejaculate.

The prostate

The prostate is a gland that lies at the center of your pelvis. Stimulation of the prostate can give you quite intense sensations. That's why it has been considered the equivalent of the G spot for men . Due to to the pleasurable sensations delivered, some erotic massages can involve a prostate massage. So you have been warned!

During erotic stimulation, the prostate becomes increasingly aroused. The closer you are to orgasm, the more sensitive the prostate is. About a third of your ejaculate comes from the prostate. The prostate can be stimulated externally or through the anus.

The perineum

Perineum is found between the base of the testicles and the anus. This area can be very sensitive to sexual stimulation, especially during orgasm. We give you permission to print this article and make her read it!

The pubococcygeus (PC) Muscle

The PC muscle is actually a group of muscles that connect your pubic bone in front to your tailbone in the back. Every time you stop the flow of urine from your bladder you use the PC muscle. Another responsibility of the PC is to contract during ejaculation moving the semen along the penis and out of the body.

There has been some Kegel exercises designed to improve this capability of the PC, offering you more spectacular erections and ejaculations. Suddenly, body fitness takes a whole new meaning!

The anus

The anus is a highly sensitive area due to mainly 2 factors: proximity to the prostate gland and it's own innervation with high sensitive nerve endings. Therefore the anus is a very pleasurable area for many men, including gay and straight. Some men won't admit it but the reality holds that it is a highly erogenous area for most of the people.
