The Male Sex Drive- Curse or Blessing?

[romangod]

After my recent fling with death, I’m finding that my sex drive has diminished to zero. I don’t know if it is physical or mental but in a sense it is somewhat liberating in that I have no desire to pursue women simply for sex. It is a short cut out of the Matrix and is what it is……… I have to accept it and be patient. If it persists I will take it up with my doctor but that is a minor concern at the moment.

I have a friend who is consumed by sex and the thought of sex. It has caused him a divorce and many more problems since. It is deeper than just sex and shows an insecurity and low self esteem that he has trouble dealing with. His sex drive is a curse.


My question is: How much does your sex drive influence your life? Has it caused you problems? Is a high sex drive a curse in today’s female centric society?

 

[speed dawg]

Mine is almost nonexistent too. I've even gotten limpd1ck before sex here recently. I think it's a combination of low sex drive and then psyching myself out about that low sex drive. Who knows, but for some reason I control the frame with these girls that I have no desire to fvck. You'd think a girl would want a sex maniac, but that's not the case. Weird.

But then you see these married guys BEGGING for sex who say, "The ole lady finally came off with some pvssy last night, first time in 5 months!!!"....and they are the biggest AFCs around, dragged around by the balls by their wife.

Eventually one or the other is going to get tired or bored with sex, and whoever does is the one in control. Or "content" I guess. In my experience anyway.

Low Sex Drive=

Mental - Depression and/or Stress

Physical - Low Testosterone Levels

All are as a result of low T levels.

See an endocrinologist and check your Testosterone levels. At 49 years old, you may need hormonal therapy.

Or

Start a vigorous work routine including CORE exercises such as deadlifts and squats. Each a diet HIGH in monounsaturated and saturated fats (nuts, steaks, eggs). Try 750 mg of tribulus terrestrius/ per day 90 on/90 day off cycle.

Your sex drive will increase significantly.

To answer your question.

A healthy sex drive is a blessing. It is the HEART of your LIBIDO.

Don't know about the OP, but that's me in a nutshell there. Not necessarily depression, but just boredom with everyday life. In a funk if you will. No real motivation any more.

What are some foods that increase T naturally? Bacon?

Having a low libido is no way to live, especially at the age of 27. Your mid-late twenties is your LIBIDO prime.

This matter needs to be addressed.

I have increased my T levels (from 350 to 1000 as per standard measurable norms) by:

- lifting heavy
- incorporating squats and deadlifts in my routine
- high fat diet including steaks, nuts , eggs and olive oil
- Supplemented with herbal tribulus terrestrius


Your LIBIDO will run thorugh the roof.

Good luck!

Not to be the annoying nerd here, but there is no empirical evidence to support the tribulus terrestris claims. I tried it several years ago and noticed no difference. Granted I am younger and have no T level deficiencies, so any possible increase may have been negligible.

You're better off either A) getting your serum levels checked and if necessary a script for T from you primary care, or B) taking a "prohormone" T precursor bought legally. However, due to continual montioring and banning of prohormone supplements, the efficacy of these products is questionable at best, and possibly dangerous.

But the other stuff is spot on---as long as you are lifting HEAVY, progressivley loading, and cycling off (intensity) periodically, T levels will rise. This has only been proven with squats, though, to my knowledge.

This is not to brag or anything...but mine is actually VERY high. To the point that when my girlfriend stays with me...we have sex 2-5 times a day. And we are talking sometimes periods of 5-10 consecutive days. And we are not talking 5 minutes of sex either.

When she is not with me...I masturbate.

The issue here is that I'm almost 40. And althought not fat, I am not in my six-pack shape either.

I say that sex is very important to me. Therefore, I cannot relate or imagine what would be like by COMPLETELY losing my sexual drive.

But it is an individual thing...and an interesting thread.

You might find this broadcast interesting. In the first segment, they talked to a guy who lost all testosterone for a period due to some medical condition. And it really did change his entire outlook on life.

Also, keep in mind that many of the greatest inventors were celibate - like Tesla, Isaac Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, George Washington Carver, etc. So, there's probably something to be said for either side. There's a lot of interesting biological trade-off's to T.

The pros are obvious. But the cons are that it depresses your immune system, can increase the likelihood of balding and may also raise your risk of cancer.

If your sex drive and T level are normal, I doubt you would find much benefit to Tribulus.

For a guy with low serum levels of T and a low sex drive, Tribulus shows a marked improvement. It is ALMOST as powerful as CLOMID (originally for women fertility), now used for post cycle therapy.

I have tried as well recommended Tribulus to a few post cycle users instead of HCG or Clomid and found it almost as beneficial. I mention post cycle, because this is the point where T levels and libido are at its lowest. This is ideally beneficial for the 70 year old man who can no longer get it up.

A good dosage of 750 mg per day, ALONG with a work out regime will IDEALLY show a marked improvement to those who have suffered hypogonadism or post-cycle therapy.

I do not like the idea of receiving hormonal treatment as that is not the solution to the problem (injecting t into your bloodstream). It is better to NATURALLY boost your T levels and see where that gets you. If all else fails, then seek HRT.

Tribulus, as compared to pro-hormones that were banned, is as well a much safer bet. Tribulus in essense sends a signal to create more LH, which is where the real problem occurs. Pro-hormones on the other hand provides a pre-cursor to T production which is unnatural. Anything unnatural to the body is not a safe bet.

However like anything else, your body stops responding to anything as your receptor sites are used. This needs to be correctly cycled on and off.

My sex drive is through the roof, always has been. It's a blessing in that it drives me to do things I wouldn't otherwise do, and it's a curse in that it drives me to do things I wouldn't otherwise do.

My question is: How much does your sex drive influence your life?

Has it caused you problems?

Is a high sex drive a curse in today’s female centric society?

Well, it influences all of us enough to post about here. It's natural to be controlled by your sex drive when you are in the early and mid stages of your life. My goal is to be done by 50.

It has caused me many problems. The more successful you are in attracting women, the more problems you will encounter, esp. if your good in bed. I have dealt with stalkers and all sorts of psychos in the last few years. It was much easier when I was content just having a GF. Now I'm not into GF's, and I meet a lot of women, hence my percentage of encountering problems is increased.

Our sex drive is natures method for keeping us locked into the matrix. Nature doesn't want us to escape the matrix until we have produced some children. The way to fool nature, escape the matrix, and be done with pvssy slavery once and for all is to fvck your way out.

Fasting, meditation, abstinence are only temporary passes out of the matrix. Your sex drive will return with full force once you resume normal life. So fvck fvck fvck your way to freedom.

 

[afrojiggles]

tribulus....there isnt any other drug apart from that guys ?

This is actually the MAIN reason I am into committed relationships. I am trying to focus more in my children and career. Dealing with all the drama was taking a toll on me. At least with a committed relationship, I deal with ONE drama (if at all).

Take Guru1000 advice on T levels. He is money. Working out and decreasing stress increases sex drive. Your 49 years old and your sex drive is not going to be like it was when you were 22 unless you get on steroids or viagra. You can't go against the laws of mother nature.

I myself am 31 and can have sex 3 times a day no problem. But when I was 21 I would *** and sometimes get hard again in a matter of 30 seconds and go for another round. I probably would not be able to do that now. It takes a little longer to get it back up again after ejaculating.

Although, I have not being as active in the gym (I used to work out 4-5 days a week and now I am in the 2-3 times a week)...the times I go...I lift some serious weights (including squats).

Good comments, guys.

I've started going to the gym regularly now and am slowly coming out of my post- illness funk. I'll play it by ear and see how I progress then I'll take it from there. Hopefully, I'll rise to the occassion real soon.

In the mean time, this break from the "sex trap" has been enlightening. Paradoxically, I'm more confident and charming with women and have less fear of rejection when I know I'm in no position to consumate any unconscious folly of the libido. Cheers!

 

[bigjohnson]

Parable: "When you place something on one side of a teeter totter, the other side naturally raises up."

A high sex drive, as you put it, is simply your mortal bodies way of telling you, "I'm dying. Hurry up and reproduce me before it's too late."

Restore balance to your mindbody, and your sex drive will resume it's appropriate place.

What a pile of shit that was. By your logic sex drive should peak just before death. Are you high RIGHT NOW?

To my surprise, there is actually a fair amount of research literature on Tribulus Terrestris ( i had to double-check). No human trials that I saw, but there would be no reason to suspect it would ineffective in humans given the mammilian data.

I am always skeptical of 'herbal' remedies, but if evidience supports it then power to ya.

Totally off-topic, but did you hear that Airborne had to pay $25m or some ridiculous figure in a class-action lawsuit? Apparently it's efficacy is completly unproven. Wow, who would of thought. After all, it was made by a school teacher! High-priced ascorbic acid delivery, if you ask me.
