its supposed to make it more intenet and last longer. would like to try that idea out though some time,

yep there sure is. but like dusty said they cant be discussed here. just experiment is the best thing to do.

n0parkin,  I agree with you the squirters thread is much more eyebrow raising than this.

I would suggest that you do a websearch on Tantric Sex and that might answer some of your questions. 

From the things I have read, I don't see that there is anything that would be medically dangerous unless you are thinking about something much more extreme.

I do not see how ED could be caused by this. But it might make a guy a bit frustrated if he is not used to restraining his energies.

Thanks for responding.  No, I'm not worried that this will cause ED, but it was mentioned on a website I went to on how to prevent (or rather, counteract) ED.  My husband doesn't want to use meds and I'm thinking he might need them.  I went to see if there was any natural way to counteract it, and came across this tecnique.  My husband thinks it may be dangerous to use this tecnique often. 

Thanks for the suggestion of tantric sex.  I will look into it.  This may be a direction to go instead of trying tecniques per se.  We're at a funny place and it is affecting our sex lives.  He apologizes over and over about how fast it is.  And I always say it doesn't matter, but I think it's having more a more pervasive role in our sex lives than either of us would like to admit to.  Certainly quitting smoking is the best solution, but there's not much I can do to convince him to do this either. 

Thanks much for the tantric idea!

There's a Taoist practice very similar to this. It’s called injaculation as opposed to ejaculation. (Seriously, I looked this up.) Just before an orgasm the man presses a spot halfway between his anus and his scrotum. It’s explained pretty well here:

It’s suppose to allow a man to have an orgasm without actually ejaculating. And it’s supposed to allow him to maintain an erection longer. (I haven’t actually tried this myself because, well, I hardly ever have sex.) (Sigh.) According to Taoist thought every person is filled with a life force called Qi (Chi). And semen contains Qi so every time a man has an orgasm he loses a little bit of his life force. (This is why we always want to roll over and go to sleep after sex.) Because of this it’s believed that men should limit the number of orgasms they have. (Women, on the other hand, have everything internalized so they can have as many orgasms as they want. How fair is that?) So Taoist sex is a lot like Tantric sex. It’s not so much “Let’s go to bed and have an orgasm.” as it is “Let’s go to bed and give each other pleasure through touch.”

If you have any medical concerns you probably just need to give your doctor a call. I know it’s a little hard to talk about something like this but doctors hear these kind of question all the time.

Luck.
