Having studied biology, I've read some materials and would like to share them with everyone here :)

There are many long-standing and widespread misconceptions about male sexual ability, often causing anxiety and unease among men lacking sex education. It's necessary to dispel these myths, clarify the facts, and relieve men of unnecessary psychological burdens.
I. Misconceptions about Circumcision
One of the most common misconceptions is that "uncircumcised men are better able to control ejaculation than those who have undergone the procedure," therefore, it's assumed that these men are more likely to satisfy their wives. The reason for this misunderstanding is the belief that the exposed glans penis after circumcision is more sensitive to external stimuli, making it harder for these men to control ejaculation. In reality, when an uncircumcised penis is fully erect, especially during vaginal thrusting, 80% of the foreskin will retract to the coronal sulcus. At this time, the delicate glans penis, normally covered by the foreskin, will be more sensitive than a previously exposed glans penis.
Some young men also suffer from phimosis, where the foreskin cannot be retracted at all, commonly known as "paraphimosis." One might assume that men with phimosis can easily control ejaculation, but this is not the case. Some people mistakenly attribute their partner's lack of sexual satisfaction to phimosis. Phimosis can restrict the development of the glans penis, and the accumulation of smegma can be unhygienic and a contributing factor to penile and cervical cancer. It can also cause pulling pain during intercourse. Therefore, men with phimosis should consider circumcision before marriage. Of course, if parents have sufficient sexual knowledge, they can help their children resolve this issue before puberty. Some young men suffer from severe phimosis that restricts penile growth, resulting in an adult penis that is still similar to that of a child, causing lifelong regret.
Secondly, regarding the misconception about penis size
, some believe that a larger penis equates to stronger sexual ability. In fact, a man's sexual ability is primarily influenced by male hormones. It also requires a sound sexual psychology, normal nerve reflexes, a well-developed circulatory system, and sufficient sexual knowledge and skills. Penis size is not a primary factor. In fact, as long as the penis size is within the normal physiological range and an erection is possible, normal sexual intercourse is possible. Furthermore, female sexual satisfaction is unrelated to penis size.
Some people believe that the larger the penis, the greater the increase in volume during erection. However, foreign research has shown that: a group of penises 7.5-9 cm in length grew an average of 7.5-8 cm after erection, nearly 100%; while another group of longer penises (10-11.5 cm) grew only 7-7.5 cm, an increase of only 70%. The difference in penis size is greater when flaccid, but this difference diminishes once erect. Therefore, men have no need to worry about penis size.
Some people believe that the stronger and taller a man is, the larger his penis will be. A survey found that the man with the largest flaccid penis (14 cm) was 1.70 meters tall and weighed 69 kg; while the man with the shortest penis (6 cm) was 1.80 meters tall and weighed 80.8 kg. Therefore, penis size is not directly proportional to height.
III. Fallacies Regarding Male Responsibility in Sexual Activity
For thousands of years, traditional beliefs have held that men should sexually satisfy women. This often causes some men to exhibit fear or performance anxiety, manifesting in two ways: first, the fear of excessive ejaculation damaging their vital energy; and second, the worry that premature ejaculation will leave their partners unsatisfied.
Many people worry that excessive ejaculation will damage their vital energy, leading to physical weakness, emotional instability, or neurasthenia—these are all fabrications and misinformation created by traditional beliefs. While it's true that emperors in history indulged in excessive sexual activity, how many ordinary people had hundreds or thousands of concubines? Rulers themselves were licentious, yet they imposed sexual repression on the people, spreading various fallacies to make them more subservient and enslaved. Recent decades of research abroad have refuted the erroneous view of "damaging vital energy," instead proving that reasonable sexual expression actually improves people's physical and mental health, while sexual repression causes serious physical and mental disorders.
Men's anxieties about ejaculatory control are related to their level of education. Generally, the higher a man's education level, the more concerned he is about whether his partner is satisfied, and thus the more likely he is to worry about his own sexual ability and complain of premature ejaculation. They often believe that only by gaining the ability to control ejaculation and mastering techniques to satisfy their partner can they feel confident in their sexual performance. In fact, women's sexual satisfaction largely depends on their own efforts. Traditional views, while imposing psychological pressure on men, desperately restrict and suppress women's sexual responsiveness, making them afraid to speak up, afraid to act, and unable to exert their own initiative. This is the root cause of sexual disharmony between men and women. Therefore, modern sex therapy particularly emphasizes mobilizing the woman's initiative, enhancing her self-understanding and awareness, and promoting honest communication between both parties regarding sexual feelings and desires.
Another misconception is that if a man cannot maintain regular sexual intercourse, especially if he suffers from erectile dysfunction, his penis will atrophy. In reality, the penis is not muscle tissue, and there is no issue of atrophy due to disuse. However, during erection, in addition to the blood sinus spaces in the corpora cavernosa that are filled with blood, the corpora cavernosa tissue also plays a role. Unless there are endocrine problems or aging leading to low hormone levels, there is no need for such worry. Even if erectile dysfunction occurs, most cases are not incurable and can be cured with active treatment. Of course, if erectile dysfunction is left untreated for a long time, the smooth muscle component of the corpora cavernosa will decrease or become fibrotic, thus affecting erectile function. Many patients contracted the disease during the Cultural Revolution and are only seeking treatment now; their smooth muscle tissue has already degenerated, and they are only suitable for implant treatment.
Another common misconception is that men are more easily aroused than women and often have a stronger sexual desire. In fact, the physiological response patterns of men and women to sexual stimulation are similar. It is only because traditional concepts have suppressed female sexual expression for a long time that, through the accumulation of conditioned reflexes, the speed and intensity of women's sexual response have been suppressed, thus showing a difference from men. Facts have proven that as long as women can break free from various psychological constraints, they will have the same responsiveness and intensity as men, and their sexual desire may even be stronger than men's because they have the ability to have multiple orgasms.
