of impotence and trust

She turned to a man on his own, on the other side of the room.

"Have you ever failed to get an erection when you've been to bed with a woman?"

The man avoided giving a direct answer.

"No, he's not." said the girl firmly. "But it has occasionally happened to him. And I know that if you had taken my question seriously, your answer would have been "Yes, O jave." All men, in all cultures and countries, independent of any feelings of love or sexual attraction, have all experienced impotence at one time or another, often when they're with the person they most desire. It's normal."

Yes , it was normal, and the person who told me this was a psychiatrist to whom I went when I thought I had a problem.

The girl went on:

"But the story we're told is that all men can always get an erection. When he can't the man feels useless, and the woman is convinced she isn't attractive enough to arouse him. Since it's a taboo subkect, he can't talk to his friends about it. He tells the woman an old lie: "It's never happened to me before." He feels ashamed of himself and often runs away from someone with whom he could have had a really good relationship, if only he had told the truth, he would have found out that he wasn't the only one. If he had trusted more in the love of the woman, he would not have felt humiliated.
