Penetration is sex to its ultimate form. I will say any understanding woman will tolerate no penetration, for a while. Some women may leave after the first failure.
When my ED started I was mid-50. My wife was late 30's. We dealt with the changes best we could, on Viagra then Trimix. When those failed to produce an erection to enable me to penetrate her we moved to masturbation games. One night sometime later she told me "Masturbating just isn't doing it for me anymore" Holy Shit! Will she seek dick elsewhere?
I really doubt she would leave me, but how depressing. That's when I got serious about the implant.
So, in my opinion YES penetration is important.
Hi Old Guy.
Seems like most women have a tolerance level, which varies and depends on different factors.
How long were you married, before the ED kicked in?
It seems to me most guys from the forum were married for years/had a partner long enough before the problems started (with exceptions, of course). This actually is the best scenario relationship wise, as the woman is already emotionally (and even financially) invested.
Based on my extremely limited experience (dating and hook ups) - most young women do not have the patience to sit trough with you and battle with this (or most) problems in life (there are exceptions, of course). One of the biggest reasons for this likely is the abundance of options flowing from social media and dating sites. Basically if a guy cannot get it up when they hook up, she would ghost him and choose someone else from the other ten orbiters she has.
The solution from my POV is to deal with your problems and choose a compatible and understanding partner.
