It’s time to put aside any jokes at the expense of gamers. This discussion isn’t about mocking those who enjoy video games. Instead, it’s about acknowledging their lower tendency towards premature ejaculation.

A recent study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine has provided insights into this topic. The research indicates that gamers are less prone to finishing early. To explore the connection between gaming and sexual health, researchers surveyed nearly 600 men aged 18 to 50 using the Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool and the International Index of Erectile Function. They also inquired about the participants’ lifestyle and gaming habits.

Men who engaged in video gaming for at least an hour daily showed a reduced likelihood of premature ejaculation compared to non-gamers. However, these gamers also reported experiencing lower sexual desire.

While the study opens up a new avenue for understanding sexual health in relation to video gaming, the researchers highlight the need for further interventional studies to validate these findings. Despite being the first of its kind to explore the link between gaming and sexual well-being, including premature ejaculation, this research sheds light on an intriguing area.
