Cock Knowledge


As Fluffy33 commented on yesterday's post, the girls are always given the talk. Boys, rarely. Sad, sad, sad. There are things that can be amiss and who would know? Like one young man I had a "conversation" with a couple years ago.


He began experiencing pain, asked his father about it, and without even taking a quick glance at his son's dick he told him not to worry, it would "right itself." Months later, the problem didn't fix itself - it worsened. Boners became more and more painful (jacking off was out of the question) and, as a result, hard-ons appeared less and less often. It would start to rise up, the pain would send him to Limpland. Another plea to his dad, another gruff response to push through until it corrected itself. No further discussion. His father was one of those guys who never explained anything about cock, balls, jerking off, or anything else pertaining to the male experience.


This was about the time this dude was starting college. I encouraged him to go to the medical center on campus, if they had one. Diagnosis: Paraphimosis. The phimotic ring (within the foreskin) was getting tighter and tighter. (As opposed to Phimosis,  a condition where the ring is so tight over the head of the cock it can't be retracted.) Recommendation: Go to a urologist and get it taken care of.

Paraphimosis
Not having access to one, afraid to incur medical expenses, he asked what he could do. We both researched on-line, I consulted my friends at the on-line medical advice sites. He tried every cream and stretching exercise suggested. Nothing was working and now it was getting difficult to even take a leak. Imagine not being able to do take care of the most basic of needs like pissing without straining and pain.


There was nothing for it but to take matters into his own hands. Rather than asking his dad, he told him he was seeing a urologist for his problem. Ultimately, he had a partial circumcision - removal of the phimotic ring - and, after a six-week healing process, everything worked properly. He was back to getting solid boners and enjoying them.




Yet, had his father not been so afraid to talk to his son, to acknowledge his son had a right to know about what he'd been born with, how it should look, feel, and behave, this young man would've been spared months of agony.

Poor guy, hope everything is functioning for him now.

Problems do need to be openly discussed and help sought!

We live in a strange world don't we? Where a Father can ignore his son's request for help simply because of the location of the problem.

It's lucky he had you to talk to.
