Re: Erection and softness after orgasm

I used to be able to stay at least firm for another 10-15 minutes. (in my 20s)
Now (in my 60s) I go completely soft before the O is done.

I doubt that I could re-enter her vagina after orgasm. I often stay in her after orgasm, but that gets messy after about a minute, so she prefers that I pull out. Three children ago, she used to enjoy squeezing me out. Wonderful days and nights!

I am not quite as rigid hard after I orgasm, but it usually takes at least 3 to 5 minutes to start to soften. My DW likes me to leave it in and I do too.
It is mostly to do with frequency. When we go on a weekend away I find that, by the second or third day, I soften quite soon afterwards.

Enjoy that while you can, Will 103! I could have done that 35 years ago! Do not EVER take an erection for granted!

I am curious from the men, how long after orgasm does your penis become soft enough it no longer can stay in or can have fun with. Does it stay semi erect for a while or does it go limp fast?

Wife's can also comment on this.
With continued stimulation, it can probably stay at 90% for quite a while. I haven't tried this much in years, and I am getting older. My wife doesn't usually care for me to 'thrust through' ejaculation these days. I can keep a semi or go soft if I keep manually simulating her after I ejaculate.

My DW enjoyed me giving her an oral orgasm after I had mine PIV and it certainly made me stay firm.

Three rules of being an older man:

Never pass up an opportunity to pee
Never trust a poot
Never waste an erection


As to the original question, I stay hard for three or four minutes after ejaculation - maybe longer if I kept up gentle stimulation. We enjoy this part of sex and we both enjoy the sensation of being gradually expelled due to changing pressure.
