Phallus Evolution: Why Is the Penis Shaped Like That?

If you’ve ever had a good, long look at the human penis (and I think most of us have), you’ve probably wondered about why it's structured the way it is. Tantra teacher Suzie Heumann has some ideas.

It's Darwin's 200th birthday this year and we'll be hearing a lot about him, I'm sure. I'm looking forward to seeing the new movie Creation, which is about his life and will include a look at his fear of reporting all he understood about evolution. Given the Victorian culture he lived in, no wonder he hesitated for some 50 years before he put On The Origin of Species out to the public.

My own evolution wanderings have caused me to wonder for a long time about why the human penis is structured the way it is. Why would evolution make the penis have a head on it, with an obvious bulbous, almost ad-on bigger part? Why does it have that extra skin, the foreskin, added to the mix? And, for that matter, why is that skin cut off (I know about the religious part, I just mean how did it really start)? I won't be covering that one.

I have some ideas about all of this and I'm hoping you'll chime in too. Read more

Is Smaller Better When It Comes to G-Spot Orgasms?

Tinamarie Bernard maintains that smaller is better when it comes to giving women G-spot orgasms.

Tantra sexuality places sublime attention on your genitals, in a way and manner unfamiliar to many westerners. Need convincing? Just consider some of the euphemisms for the penis: Prick, mister stiffy, admiral winky, bald avenger, chicksicle, executive staff member, boner. Nothing inherently wrong with these … if you like to objectify your body (which is not synonymous with playing, touching, and loving your private parts, all totally natural and good activities to participate in).

And what do these have in common besides being invented in the Junior High locker room? They focus only on one state of a man’s body – penis erectus. More to the point, they are misleading. Turns out, smaller to average-sized penises do a better job of giving a woman a g-spot orgasm Read more

What Is the Perfect Lingam Size for Your Yoni?

The question, "Does size matter?" is endlessly debated and is a source of anxiety for many men, but the truth is that the only size that matters is his size and your size. Tantra teacher Janet Kira Lessin discusses the issues of penis size and shape, including how to compensate for "mismatched" Lingams and Yonis.

What about size? Obviously, a man with a nine inch lingam will cause great problems for a woman with a shallow yoni. But that same God would be ideal for a Goddess with a nine inch yoni. If the man has a lingam shorter than his beloved's yoni, he will not be able to penetrate all the way into her, reach her sacred sector and totally satisfy her during intercourse. That same man will completely satisfy a woman with a shallow yoni. So when we look at the issue closely, it’s not the size that matters. What is important is the compatibility of the lingam and the yoni.

Problems arise (har har) when women with shorter yoni’s make love with men with longer lingams. Men, in the heat of passion, especially when they orgasm, tend to get excited and penetrate as far as they can (ouch). If lovers are not careful, the lingam head can penetrate all the way through the tight ring of the cervical opening and enter the uterus creating disaster for the woman. While it may feel awesome for the man, it can cause infection and disease for his lady. So what to do? Read more
