JAKARTA - It's not just women who often feel insecure. Men can also be skeptical and insecure about their appearance, especially in terms of sexual performance. Men can feel very awkward and think about their appearance in bed and whether they can please their partner when they are in bed or not. This sense of insecurity in general can affect the level of trust and self-esteem of men.

VOI launched the Times of India, Friday, June 16, revealing the secrets of men regarding things that often make them feel less confident during sexual intercourse.

One of the most common male sexual insecurity flavors is about penis size. Many men worry that their penis is not big enough to satisfy their partner or meet general standards. Men associate penis sizes with their sexual performance. Men fail to realize that penis size does not determine sexual pleasure or greatness. But the way to communicate in bed, connection, and style of sex that makes women satisfied with sexual intercourse.

Men can experience anxiety in sexual performance that can directly affect their ability to achieve or maintain an erection. As a result, they will experience premature ejaculation or may not be able to satisfy their partner. Anxiety in sexual performance can be triggered by various factors such as stress, performance pressure, and body image problems. Open communication, applying relaxation techniques, and seeking professional assistance can help overcome this problem.

Men, like women, can also struggle with body shape that can affect self-confidence during sex. Concerns about weight, muscle size, hair loss, or physical appearance can make a person aware of their body, especially when they are naked in front of others, during foreplay or relationships.

Practice positive affirmation and feeling good about yourself can increase your confidence. Having a partner who embraces and accepts your body as it is, can also make you feel great.

Unexperiencing men may feel insecure with their sexual skills or lack of experience compared to their partners. Men are 'assumed' usually very experienced and can perform great in bed. Undergoing this expectation can be a big burden for men.

Men may worry about their ability to satisfy their partner sexually. They may constantly worry that they cannot make their partner reach orgasm or fulfill their desires. This can cause anxiety and self-confidence. Focusing on mutual pleasure and paying attention to each other's sensual points, needs, and desires of each other can make this much easier.
