[edit] Comment 1

I tried to post a link to a related site and it was immediatly removed because it is a commercial site, yet there are other links to commercial sites under "prostate massage" --Confusing!

[edit] Comment 2

What's a gouche? This is not a sexual or anatomical term I know. Karada 07:09 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)

OK, changing to perineum, which I think is what the original writer intended. "gouche" --> "guiche", which is a perineal piercing. Karada 07:13 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Addiction to sex

That last comment about addiction seems misguided, and the website it links to does not strike me as the most scientifically trustworthy; anyone have any suggestions for replacement?

[edit] Comment 3

I have removed this text from the article:

Prolonged milking activity (over the course of several years) may cause addiction to, or worse, obsession with sex - see http://www.actionlove.com/cases/case10177.htm

Justification: the page cited recommends a treatment that it also sells. -- Karada 08:49, 28 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Sexual massage

"... prostate massage may be pleasurable to both gay and semi-gay men..."

Funny, funny stuff.

[edit] BDSM category?

Why is this article categorised under BDSM since it is kind of misleading to suggest that prostatic massage is a BDSM activity when in fact only prostate milking is? Beno1000 00:47, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Road Trip

Perhaps someone could insert the reference to the film Road Trip? That's where I first heard this term.

lol, similar here too! Not where I first heard about it, but the first example of it that I now always think off. Mathmo 08:31, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bad info

Part of the mechanism for orgasm for a male involves the accumulation of seminal fluids within the prostate and associated ducts; accordingly, once the prostate is mostly emptied of fluids, a male will be incapable of achieving erection for a period of 24-96 hours, and typically unable to achieve orgasm for some additional time after that.

I admit I don't have personal experience, but I find this highly unlikely. You can have your prostate removed and still have erections and orgasms.

Agreed, the concept that prostate milking is an effective erection inhibitor for a number of days can hold no more than the status of a "fetishistic belief" without medical evidence. Should be removed.

The culprit is the "72 hr" claim. The rest looks sensible. Suggest restore, but with critical review 1st. Objections? FT2 ^{(Talk | email)} 02:59, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Need for regular massage to stay healthy?

Could the 'prostate experts' help with answering a question to improve the article?

I came looking here because I have heard it said many times that flow of semen through the prostate is healthy and that those that don't have semen flow (particularly in the BDSM context of guys involved with long-term orgasm denial and chastity) should be 'prostate milked' regularly for the health of the prostate.

But I've heard the recommend frequency quoted of anything between 15 days and 3 months, and also (which seems logical to me) that it's a complete myth since there are plenty of healthy guys (from devout religions?) who don't orgasm at all for years.

Can anyone who can speak authoritatively that put that info into the article? --Mortice 20:00, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Prostate orgasm

Is there such a thing as a prostate orgasm? Is it/can it be distinct from a normal male orgasm, and if so, how is it different in terms of sensations and intensity?
