EJACULATION AND AGING

 By now it should be obvious that the place you lose the most energy is out your penis through ejaculating. For aging men, nonejaculatory lovemaking is even more important as each ejaculation becomes more exhausting to the body. As we mentioned once before, the long-lived Chinese physician Sun Ssu-miao recommended that men at forty ejaculate no more than once in ten days, that men of fifty ejaculate no more than once in twenty days, and that men at sixty no longer ejaculate. These are maximum amounts, and if you are able to transform your sexual energy by drawing it up, the less frequently you ejaculate, the better off you will be. This may be difficult at first if you are just starting to practice Sexual Kung Fu, but once you experience the pleasure of nonejaculatory orgasms and understand their health benefits, you will be extremely motivated to learn quickly. Even better, if you start when you are younger, your appetite for ejaculation will quickly decrease and as you get older you will have little or no interest in it. Sun Ssu-miao's recommended frequencies are just guidelines, and every few years you can simply decrease the number of times you ejaculate. This will naturally allow you to keep your frequency of ejaculation in line with your increasing needs for conservation. It is interesting to point out that even Masters and Johnson recognized that men do not need to ejaculate every time they make love, especially once they reach the age of fifty. If a man recognizes this important point, they concluded, "he is potentially a most effective sexual partner.”’ Once again, it is important that you not become obsessed with nonejaculation and that you not berate yourself if you do ejaculate. If you ejaculate, let go and enjoy it.
