I Have Erectile Dysfunction

50% of men will have some form of impotence in their 50's and it increases 10% with each decade. The sad thing is most men do not want to talk about it. I believe it would help us by talking about it and letting each other know we are not alone.

[c=#4C0073]it doesnt and shouldnt diminish their worth ..
most men feel their worth has eroded when ED or impotence sets in .. society needs to be educated to be supportive instead of poking fun like they always do ..
humans 🤦‍♀️[/c]

@SW-User I agree entirely, and I think it's mainly men who do the poking of fun, perhaps out of fears they dare not state of becoming impotent themselves.

@SW-User thank you for being so sportive and understanding.

@ArishMell it is Ego diminishing to let a buddy or group of buddies know you have ED. What do we have with our group of peers, our sexual virility, and to let them know you cannot perform sexually destroys the image we want them to have of us. A couple of my friends have snickered and a couple have been supportive. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is impotent, but none of them have admitted that they have ED.

@Pauly Might depend a lot on what sort of people your buddies are, of course. At least two of yours understand.
