381: My 5 biggest takeaways from my 10 c0ck interviews

381: My 5 biggest takeaways from my 10 c0ck interviews

Author: Melanie Curtin October 3, 2025 Duration: 25:49

Welcome to Cocktober! We're spending this whole month on a plethora of penis things.

As a sex researcher, I can tell you that when it comes to men's top sex problems, a common and unrelenting theme is around erections: getting them, keeping them, and being able to savor or "complete" them.

This past spring and summer I interviewed ten men about their experiences with erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation (PE), and delayed ejaculation (DE). Some men had just one thing going on; some had a combination of these things.

This episode is a distillation of the top five things I learned in doing those interviews. There were some unexpected themes, and some you might expect.

If you've ever contended with this topic, I suspect you'll resonate with some of the stories and patterns enumerated here. And get ready for more c*ck content. This whole month is dedicated to the sacred member.
