Uncontrollable Shaking

Unread post by redUnmentionabl »

So yesterday my girlfriend and I got naked and frisky. I'll try to spare the more intimate details but she touched my penis and I started to shake. I'm a guy and I masturbate often so I don't think it has to do with endurance. It felt... different.

It didn't feel like I was close to ejaculation, but it felt very intense and my knees shook uncontrollably. We stopped because she began to feel uncomfortable (separate from the shaking) but even several minutes afterwards I was still asking a bit. This feeling doesn't happen when I masturbate and I don't know if this is healthy/normal.

Any response is appreciated

Hi redUnmentionabl,

Part of what may be happening is that partnered sex feels exciting and novel in ways that masturbation doesn't right now, and your body is reacting to that. If it's only happened once, it could just be that's how your body reacted to the situation on that day. Unless it's painful or happening unexpectedly in moments not connected to sex, it's likely nothing to be concerned about.

It might be due to psychological phenomenon otherwise there is nothing wrong physically!

I was definitely feeling the leg-shakes the first time I had partnered sex - had never happened to me before, but now it's a signal to me that something really pleasurable is about to happen!!

Does it worry you, or are you just curious about it?
