Question:
Whenever I am with my girlfriend and she goes down to give me oral sex, I often have a hard time recieving an erection. I can never seem to ejaculate with her even though when I am at home can recieve a full erection easily by myself. I don't think drugs like viagra are right for me because i'm so young (19). Should guys my age be experiecing such "dissfuction" when with a girl? Are there drugs I should take?

I think what you are experiencing is common - in the sense that you have no problems with erections by yourself, but when your girlfriend tries to give you one via oral sex, it just doesn't work - it is not the same, and her technique may not be as good as yours. Perhaps you could help guide her - or include your own hands in the process.... so that you can show her how it feels - rather than leaving her to figure it out... and having both of you feel such pressure to "make it work" so to speak! or perhaps you can skip that all together- or just have her spend a few minutes kissing your penis as a lead into other activities that you do find pleasurable. Best wishes!
