Cultural Attitudes about the Prostrate

Male incontinence in any culture indicates an unhealthy body at the very least. In the workforce, there is very little tolerance for loss of bladder control, even when it is the result of an enlarged prostrate. The abundance of adult diapers sold in the United States indicates the apparent need for protection while in society. Painful ejaculation is not a product of sexual health and enjoyment, which is highly prized in most cultures. Avoidance of sexual encounters, although accompanied by pain, does not fit the profile of a sexually healthy male and is not esteemed behavior in most cultures.
