Hello Marnia and others,
Possible allusions to non-orgasmic sex in the writings of St. Paul have been noted here at Reuniting. This evening I found a Pauline text that supports this point of view, and that I have not noticed before:
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification
and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know
not God.... 1 Thessalonians 4:4
Here is one scholarly exploration of the text:

Scientists (especially in our Enlightened Age...) can usually be trusted to control for relevant variables in correlation-based studies. That is, at least for variables that are obvious and/or acknowledged. So in studies about the effect of sex on physiology and psychology, you might expect that the basic factorial design would include, even in the current society where sex is conflated with orgasm: . In studies for which the purported independent variable is orgasm (e.g.

I just want to say for right now that although my husband and I still need to read "Cupid's Poisoned Arrow", we have been working with the information on the "Reuniting" website, and just that is helping us tremendously. We have been bonding for just 7 days now, and we both feel so much better...closer and more loving than we have felt in over 10 years. It is just amazing how cuddling and snuggling helps to clear one's perceptions, and makes owning hurtful or inconciderate behavior so much easier. Just today, I frightened my husband by getting angry at something he did.

I have not posted in awhile, thought it was time for an update. My wife and I agreed about two months ago to scheduling intercourse on every date that ended in 7. She suggested it, I agreed. (For those that may not remember or know, we are coming off a 5 year celibate period, so 2 - 3 times per month is a pretty significant improvement.)

I shall not narrate each day of my first no orgasm experiment, but instead provide some general comments about my state of mind, the difficulty of self-denial, and my problems with anger. The reason for not writing a day-by-day account is that most of my notes from those days proved superfluous. Only after the first experiment failed and I started another one did I have the necessary perspective to identify some of the personal phenomenology of dopamine jolt withdrawal. I plan to write a separate post about my temporal progression of withdrawal.

Well, first off I'm delighted to have recently found this website! (thanks for making it!). It's been now over two weeks since I had an ejaculation and I'm feeling fantastic so far! I'm very excited about these new ideas..
Now onto my very long post/ question:

Greetings commnity -
I'm relative new to exploring less ejaculation / orgasms as part of my love making, and having some success and lots of learning. I'd be interested in insights about getting this to work in my marriage.
I've been exploring for about six months and am at about 2 orgasms a month for the last 2 months. I love the energy, increased focus on the whole body, unplugging from 'goal' in sex, and the lack of frequent 'let down'.

My girlfriend and I want to try the exchanges but we can't get "clean" for 2 weeks in order to start them, we each take a turn going over the edge ( or occasionally both at the same time) she is suggesting that we have intercourse but one of us be an "orgasm guardian" but this has not worked so well ..... I have suggested that we just start the exchanges to get through an orgasm free 2 weeks and then start again as the begining of the 3 weeks ? any suggestions????

Here is my problem :
I read Peace Between the Sheets but my boyfriend didn’t because he can’t read a book in English (we’re French). So I have translated each chapter summary, but I guess that’s not enough. Anyway I thought that wouldn’t be a problem because he was already really interested by practising non-orgasmic sex, since he read the esoteric books of Samael Aun Weor. But I agree with Marnia when she writes that "some of the vital clues for how one eludes biology were missing from the sacred sex manuals".
