Semen ok?
Question
When I ejaculate it doesnt squirt out like on porn movies. Is this abnormal?
Answer
To reassure you, it's completely normal for ejaculate (sperm) to squirt out of the penis in different ways. It's also worth bearing in mind that sexual behaviour tends to be exaggerated in porn movies, which could be why your ejaculations seem so different.
When a man orgasms, semen shoots out of the penis in a series of quick squirts. The quantity of ejaculate produced can vary from person to person, as can the force of ejaculation. The quantity and force can also vary each time a man ejaculates.
