Your body and you

1. Whose body is it anyway? It's impossible to watch television, view a film, or read a magazine without seeing idealised models or actors portraying what is supposed to represent the height of physical and material perfection.
2. Body image Ensuring that you look the best you can - that you look like you care about yourself - is a valuable goal.
3. Nudity is the state of wearing no clothing. That may seem obvious but there's more to it than that
4. Naked in a crowd: socialising naked can be good for you
5. Naturism should not be confused with naturalism, which is the study of nature
6. On the receiving end It may seem strange that anyone would need instructions for receiving a massage but massage is not yet so common a part of our culture that everyone knows how easy it is to be massaged.
7. The art of erotic massage There is a strong presumption that erotic massage is simply a way for losers and wimps to get off by paying for sex that they could not otherwise obtain. Here is a differing view.
8. Rules for being human Need some help maintaining a healthy perspective, a positive attitude and inner satisfaction and confidence.

Your penis

1. Penis anatomy There's more to a penis than the shaft and the head. Find out what all the other bits are called.
2. Penis size More and more men are asking the question "Is my penis big enough?" The idea seems to be that if you have a big penis, you can feel big about yourself, proud of your penis.
3. The shape of things to come How straight is the average penis? Straight? Average? What do these words really mean? Find out more about the huge range of penis shapes and discover that there's belly no such thing as "average"
4. What colour is your penis? The colour of the skin of your penis often differs from the rest of the body.
5. Bigger than Ben Hur A whole mythology has been built up around men with big penises. It is seen as a symbol of potency, power and masculinity.
6. Myths about your penis No other part of the male anatomy causes such a stir nor has had so much myth cloaked about it. An awful lot of rubbish gets talked about penises.
7. Your testicles There is nothing to worry about if one of your testicles is slightly larger than the other or for one to hang slightly lower than the other.
8. Do you have a foreskin? The foreskin performs several important functions. Most of these functions centre on making sex more enjoyable for both partners.
9. The passage of semen Ejaculation occurs in two steps. During the first step, the seminal fluid is forced from the prostate and other accessory organs into the urethra.
10. The prostate is part of a man's sex organs. It's about the size of a walnut and surrounds the tube called the urethra, located just below the bladder.
11. Snippets Bits and pieces from sexuality research and articles.
12. Questions about your penis and some answers

Body modifications

1. Circumcision It used to be thought that a circumcised penis was healthier and cleaner that an uncircumcised penis. But these days, evidence shows that it is a totally unnecessary operation for the majority of males.
2. Penis enlargement Most body modifications - pectoral or penis enlargements, liposuction, chemical peels, etc - seem to do more harm than good and, in many cases, leave you with less than you started with. Penis enlargement is no exception.
3. Talking of penises, as we were Welcome to the pill that will solve all your problems, make you a powerful man and attract the kind of women who like to be dominated. It's a pill for any man who feels he is lacking that vital element that assures other men that he is a real man: a humongous schlong.
4. A piercing experience One man's account of getting a Prince Albert piercing in his penis.
5. A close shave Suggestions for those who choose to shave their nether regions.

Loving yourself

1. What is masturbation? You might think that anyone with half a brain would know what masturbation is. But then, you'd think anyone with half a brain wasn't interested in the size of his penis, wouldn't you?
2. Pleasuring yourself With a better understanding of yourself and your body you can experience much more in your sexual expression, passion and development.
3. Finishing with a bigger bang Not surprisingly, the secret to increased pleasure from orgasms and ejaculation lies in being relaxed and willing to explore yourself.
4. I feel so guilty when I wank Negative ideas about masturbation can be very influential for many of us, since they were pounded into us, sometimes literally, as children and adults.

Loving others

1. Getting off on sex Do you always enjoy sex? Or do you sometimes think about other things or find that sex has lost some of its flavour or romance?
2. Male sex myths As with your penis, there's a lot of rubbish about what normal sex for a man is supposed to be. Most of this misinformation is designed to make you feel less than a "real" man.
3. Gay as a row of tents? The use of homosexuality to describe sexual behaviour between people of the same sex sometimes causes confusion and controversy.

Dis-eases

1. Peyronie's disease, a condition of uncertain cause, is characterized by a plaque, or hard lump, that forms on the penis.
2. Impotence is a consistent inability to sustain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse.
