Hello all, new here. Already finding the community so helpful.

I wonder if any of you have faced the same issue as me. I can get hard by stroking myself but within seconds of me me stopping it starts to go down. Not sure why.

Have you guys experienced this? Any tips please? Thanks!

I usually have erections like this. I’ve had moments where it was just rock hard without me working to keep it that way, but most of the time I’m squeezing my pelvic floor muscles to maintain an erection and need touch to keep it erect.
