  • Not a doctor, just sharing some anecdotes.

    https://fridayplans.com/ - Fill out a form and a doctor reviews and you get a prescription to Viagra or Cialis. I personally do the 20mg Cialis and quarter the pills to tale 5mg/day. Been great for my ED. Cialis isn’t as strong as Viagra but it lasts longer. Taking it the way I do I’m pretty much ready to go anytime. The 20mg is for every 3 days, but I take one over the course of 4 days. So I’ll take an extra 5mg every once in awhile before sex for a little extra boost. I didn’t have to talk or chat to anyone. I have read if you put any heart conditions on the form you may have to though.

    Now my wife has medical conditions that makes intercourse pretty infrequent. Coupled with the ED, penis-in-vagina (PIV) sex was only happening a few times a year. Similar to you, once the intensity dropped, I’d go limp. She couldn’t go intense. It was causing a lot of marital issues. Femdom ended up being the thing that saved it. She keeps me in chastity. Sex now is mostly going down on her and pegging for me. When I couldn’t get it up, she was loving the (consensual) humiliation aspect of teasing me about my ED. I rarely have orgasms now but the connection felt being intimate is just as satisfying. I started the Cialis after the fact just to have the option for PIV sex. We still haven’t had regular sex despite being on it for months. Point is, there are women out there that enjoy alternative forms of sex.

    German: Kein Mehrheit Für Die Mitleid aka No Majority For Compassion (No Pity for the Majority)

    American: Kill Mother Fucking Depeche Mode

    Loved them in the 90s through early 2000s when I was in my teens. Including the extended family like PIG, En Esch, and Skold. Last decade and a half have been meh.

    Though I’m pretty sure everybody has fondness for the music they liked from teens through early 20s.


  • Others have posted similar topics, but when I was in college many years ago I remember writing a paper on language death and relating it to modern trends in religion.

    It was undergrad work and like 10 years ago, so take with a grain of salt when it comes to causation, but the correlation I found at the time echoes some of the other posters: a lack of perceived utility.

    Religion offers some nice perks as a social support system. Can you get those some place else? Different church? Something outside of religion? Mix of both?

    Some of the support systems may be irreplaceable. That is okay. We are adaptive creatures. Its scary, but maybe you will find some supports hindered personal growth or were not worth the trade off of being passive in the face of bigotry.

    You don’t need to decide everything all at once. Maybe there is a place to practice your faith with other like-minded individuals. Maybe you discover practicing a moral life doesn’t need to be coupled to faith. To believe or not believe doesn’t need to be decided at the same time as distancing yourself from hateful individuals.
