10 things you did not know about your penis

You may well assume that you know everything about your penis. After all, it is a reproductive organ, isn’t it? All of us learn about that in high school. Most people do not even need school to know what it is. However, there are probably still some facts you never heard of before. Check out 10 things you did not know about your man part.

Your penis needs practice, too

If you do not have an erection for too long, your penis may fall out of shape, thus affecting your ability to have an erection later on.

You can lift weight with your penis

There is actually a martial arts studio in Los Angeles that teaches its students to lift weights with their flaccid penises.

Your erection can be measured scientifically

The scale mentioned above was developed by a group of scientists during their experiment of Viagra. The method used was self-rating.

Men are just as sensitive as women when it comes to the reproductive organs

While the most sensitive area of men is different from women (the tip of the foreskin in contrast to the inner labia), they could feel the same level of pressure.

The bacteria on your penis can increase your risk of getting HIV

Several studies have shown that uncircumcised men tend to have higher risk of HIV. However, circumcised men are not totally safe, either. The best way to prevent STDs remains the same: wear a condom.

Sleep-related erections may hurt badly

To your surprise, getting hard during sleep can be so painful that you wake up holding your manpart in distress. Doctors have not been able to explain this condition. Fortunately, just a few unfortunate men experience this.

Getting kicked in the balls may trigger pleasure

While it can be worst men’s nightmare, ballbusting is actually a thing within the BDSM community. A quick search on the Internet yields more than tens of thousands results.

There are two types of penises

Some penises gain a lot, some do not gain much length with erections. Many men have penises that make other men jealous even at normal state. But the jealous ones should know that shorter flaccid penises tend to gain about twice as much length as longer flaccid penises, according to Alfred Kinsey’s research in 1948.

Handsome men have the best penises

Well, as mythical as this may sound, it is scientifically proven. In an experiment, men are sorted into groups according to their sperm quality. Then, women are asked to pick out the one they think are most handsome. The chosen ones are usually the one with high-quality sperm.

You do not need your brain to ejaculate

Your spinal cord is the one responsible for ejaculation orders. So, technically, brains are not necessary here.
