Talk:Edging (sexual practice)

message: Hmmm... Well, I assembled my part of the article from various publications, mixed in with common knowledge and maybe a bit of personal experience (OK, quite a lot really).  I can only think of one way of verifying the accuracy of the article, and even that won't work because it will be different for everybody, and will work for some but not for others :-)
OK, I realise that it's not in the usual mould of Wikipedia sexology articles (i.e. it's written from the female POV - which I can't help; it deals with 'mainstream' sexuality and doesn't mention anal sex once) but I hope it's better than the original stub.
I'll wait to see if the tag stays there for a week or so, then collapse the page back down to the original stub as it was before I started work on it.  Presumably this was perfection itself in your eyes.
OK on 'stiff wobbley legs'.  Not recommended for tightrope walkers or figure skaters :-) 160.84.253.241 08:17, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it's a problem with not being factual, but that it lacks references, and reads in my opinion more like a "How to" guide. See Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Verifiability - material shouldn't be based on personal experience, but published sources. Mdwh 22:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, just rip out whatever you don't like, or take it back down to the stub.  I don't mind, or really care. I'm off somewhere else now. (Unwatch) 160.84.253.241 08:13, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Verification / Inaccurate / Cite Sources Tag 

message: Have made edits to open up the page to the full aspects of the term orgasm control. This not only applies to one technique, but to many, in many disciplines and practices. To focus on only one, as the page did, limits its full potential. 'Orgasm control' doesn't seem like a term that can be applied to one data-point at the exclusion of others, it is too general and not a term that can be copyrighted or trademarked.

thread_title: Page opened up to encompass all aspects of the term

message: :::Thanks a lot to 160.84.253.241 for expanding on my original stub. If you are reading this would you mind telling me which publications you used? My primary sources for the stub were "The Joy of Sex" and various web sites which can't really be cited. I'd hate to delete everything that isn't in the Joy of Sex, because it's getting to be an old book now (1972). The article is getting better but I'd like to answer Mdwh's criticisms at some point, and get rid of the tag. Caviare 10:38, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

These practices are mostly to improve the energy level, and they can of course make intercourse longer. It's mostly about breathing, moving and making sounds.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlexandreQuessy (talk • contribs) 04:42, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  We should mention the orgasm control techniques from neo-tantra and sexual taoism 

message: I was unable to find any studies or even mentions at all of "breast enlargement" or the generation of additional "breast tissue" through edging in human females.
Due to the lack of sources to support the claim, not even low quality sources, I am forced to believe the presence of these arguments in the article is either due to trolling or to a breast expansion fetish from the author.
This is why I have removed any categorical assertions linking edging to breast enlargement from the first part of the article, and I'm asking with this post for further discussion on this issue.
In my consideration, sources should be provided that back up these claims to avoid their inminent removal. 90.167.255.199 (talk) 21:23, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing link between edging and breast enlargement 

message: Edging is one of the ways to get Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain syndrome. The accumulation of seminal fluid and sudden release can cause microtears in the lining of the seminal conducts or prostatic urethra that produces inflamation of the prostate very difficult to subside from the constant exposure to urine irritants. It must be stresssed that these are conditions that harshly affect the quality of lives of men and the condition may last from months to decades.
There is a big bias in currently available information against the health risks completely ignoring them in favor to promote it as some alternative treatment for erectile dysfunction. A run into prostatitis will cause greater sexual dysfunction and psychological stress from painful ejaculations, chronic pain and socially unacceptable frequent micturition.
