Sexual Intercourse

In the olden days, woman was always blamed when the couple could not give birth to any babies. The mother-in-law or father-in-law would often blame childlessness on the daughter-in-law. However, times have changed. As people get more knowledgeable, many cases of infertile marriage is due to the man instead. In fact, the most common health disorder inflicting older men is not hypertension, or arthritis, but Erectile Dysfunction as shown in some reports. In the United States alone between 10-20 million males are affected with some form of severe erectile dysfunction.



The penis is made up of 3 chambers, two corpora cavernosa – the erectile tissues and one corpus spongium.

The penis is the organ that fits into the passage of the female body, the vagina. To ease the entry into the vagina, the penis has to be stiffened. The nervous effect of sexual excitement shunts blood into the spongy tissue surrounding the urethra. This lengthens, thickens and straightens the penis in a process called erection. During the embrace of sexual intercourse sperm are squirted into the upper end of the vagina. Once they have reached the egg, and if fertilisation occurs, cells division occurs and the development of baby begin to start in the mother's body. After sexual intercourse, the erection subsides and the urethra is ready to resume its other function of carrying urine from the bladder.

Like the penis, the female clitoris also enlarges during sexual arousal. At the same time, the walls of the vagina are lubricated by a fluid secreted by special glands to reduce friction during intercourse. This secretion mixes with the seminal fluid to create a favourable chemical environment for the newly arrived sperm. However, for this to occur, the penis needs to be erected in order to fulfill its function of penetration into the vagina. Due to many factors, some men might suffer the problem of erection.

Marriage involves two persons and both parties should be open in handling such kind of affair. Looking for a third party to fulfill their function of reproduction is not the right way. In my grandfather's family, one of the married man went over to Indonesia to look for 'woman' who would produce babies for him. This is wrong, as he already break his marriage vow in doing so.

Before you can talk about frequency of sexual intercourse, the man must be able to perform first. If the man cannot 'stand' (erection), sexual intercourse is impossible. Sexual adjustment between two partners take time, depending on their degree of openness towards each other and also their sexual knowledge.
