Ejaculation is the ejecting of semen from the penis, and is usually
accompanied by orgasm. It is usually the result of sexual stimulation,
which may include prostate stimulation. Rarely, it is due to prostatic
disease. Ejaculation may occur spontaneously during sleep (a nocturnal
emission). Anejaculation is the condition of being unable to ejaculate.
The process of ejaculation is an intense sensation (French "la
petite mort" - the little death), which can be immensely pleasureable
and satisfying for males. Each spurt is associated with a wave of sexual
pleasure, especially in the penis and loins. The first and second convulsions
are usually the most intense in sensation, and produce the greatest quantity
of semen. Thereafter, each contraction is associated with a diminishing
volume of semen and a milder wave of pleasure. During sexual intercourse
or masturbation, most males will find it difficult to resist the psychological
temptation to continue the stimulation of the penis to the point of ejaculation
once the feeling of orgasm becomes imminent. During the process, males
may make involuntary vocalizations such as grunting, moaning, groaning,
or crying out, and some may experience full body convulsions, the spasms
in tempo with those in the penis.
