Guys' #1 sex hang-up: small penis? Nope. Can't it up? Think again. His chief bedroom conundrum is a too-soon climax.(LOVE AND LUST)

"Stress causes levels of adrenaline and dopamine to rise," explains Ian Kerner, PhD, sex therapist and author of She Comes First. "This makes the guy more aroused and less in control of his orgasm."
Another culprit: masturbation. "Men often focus on finishing fast when masturbating since climaxing is the goal," ...
