									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>User&#8230;, thank you for your response.  </p>
<p>There is much here that makes sense and which I can agree with.  I always tell people that when you discover material which is of great value, you don&#8217;t just read it once, you have to study it &#8212; reread several times.  I have already read the aforementioned Chia/Winn book twice and some sections several&hellip;<span class="activity-read-more" id="activity-read-more-45836"><a href="https://healingtaousa.com/forums/topic/semen-retention/page/2/#post-33863" rel="nofollow ugc">[Read more]</a></span></p>

<p>There was another time when I thought I might be experiencing a &#8220;valley orgasm&#8221;, but I wasn&#8217;t sure if such a thing could occur during solo cultivation.

<p>So, I got out the coconut oil and commenced to stroking &#8212; nothing.  Absolutely zero.  I laughed and laughed.  The difference was that this time there was no itch.  haha  Fascinating!  Either that or I was just orgasmed out.  There was nothing left in the tank.  😉</p>
