Reducing Male Orgasmic Disorder
Sex therapy usually begins with a few days of sensate focus, when the man should not have an ejaculation by masturbation or partner interaction.

Lasch’s ‘new Narcissus’
Lasch conceives his new Narcissus in relation to the character-type of the ‘American Adam’ whose ‘rugged individualism’ and ‘unbridled egotism’, we are told, were much celebrated in nineteenth-century American literature (1991, 10-11). Lasch is quick to point out, however, that the resemblance drawn between the two characters on the grounds of a shared ‘imperial’ sense […]

The World Health Organization
In the 1970s a large-scale programme was launched by the World Health Organization in India and elsewhere to combat over-population, in which millions of men were sterilized. The same happened in China under government pressure. For some decades Chinese doctors had already been using alternatives to vasectomy, including a technique requiring only three instruments (an […]
TESTING IN DISGUISE
After Margaret Sanger’s visit, Pincus began the search for the “universal contraceptive.” In 1951, he took up the line of research that Makepeace and his colleagues had initiated in 1937: the effects of progesterone on ovulation. As a first step, Pincus had two of his staff members, the chemist Min-Chueh Chang and the biologist Anne […]
