Glickman has written extensively on this topic, and told us how men reacted to the discussion of prostate massage. It was meant for procreation and reproduction, a more advanced discourse was created not long ago to talk about the emotional elements involved and now for the past couple of decades we are talking about “what gives us pleasure” in a proactive way.” Also pleasure has not always been a part of our conversation when we talk about sexuality.
