Dr Bernard Apfelbaum is the world's leading authority on RE. This link is to his latest thoughts on the subject and contains many new and radical observations on the causes of Retarded Ejaculation.
For years wild and unproven theories about RE have been circulating in sex therapy literature. Everything from religious scruples to a hatred of women have been blamed for a man's inability to ejaculate during intercourse. These beliefs resulted in demand strategy therapies such as Sensate Focus and "the bridge maneuver" which rarely worked, which in turn caused Sex Therapists to consider RE to be a "lost cause" sexual dysfunction with a low cure rate.
Apfelbaum believes that RE is the same as female anorgasmia, a lack of sufficient arousal on the part of the man despite having an erection. He believes that once therapists rid themselves of old notions and consider this fact, that they can easily construct a therapeutic program to treat this sexual dysfunction that is now believed to be far more common than previously thought.
This is a Google Books excerpt missing a few pages but it is a must read for all RE sufferers, their partners and their therapists.
