  • Why do men often wake up with an erection?

    Why do men often wake up with an erection?
    Apr 12 2026
    A lot of people think that morning erections are triggered by erotic dreams, or a need to pee, but in fact they're a physiological reflex linked to sleep. That’s right - they’re not dependent on sexual arousal at all. And in a somewhat similar way, women actually also experience increased blood flow to the clitoris during the night. Now, the scientific term for a nighttime erection is nocturnal penile tumescence, or NPT for short, and men get a few each night on average. They occur during REM sleep phases, which make up around 20% of total sleep time. What exactly is REM sleep? Are you saying it’s an involuntary reflex then? What if I stop experiencing morning erections? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • What is King Charles’ role in the Church of England?

    What is King Charles’ role in the Church of England?
    Apr 11 2026
    Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, her son Prince Charles became King at the age of 73. He inherited the many titles that his mother carried throughout her 70-year reign, one of which is the “Defender of the Faith”. That refers to his role as the supreme governor of the Church of England. In 2009, the Church of England stated it had over 26 million baptised members accounting for nearly half of the population of England. It is also the mother church of the international Anglican Communion which is present around the world, particularly in Commonwealth countries like Canada, Australia and South Africa. The British monarch’s role as Defender of the Faith is mostly symbolic; in practice he has limited powers. What is the monarch's role as head of the Church of England? How was the Church of England born? What is the Church of England religion like? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • How quick is premature ejaculation?

    How quick is premature ejaculation?
    Apr 11 2026
    According to the British Association of Urinological Surgeons, somewhere between 20 and 30% of men experience premature ejaculation. But of those men, less than a quarter actually seek medical advice. That’s despite it being an issue that often takes a toll psychologically on the man and the relationship they have with their partner. If it's always been an issue, it's termed primary premature ejaculation; whereas if it occurs after a period of normal ejaculation, it's called "secondary." And various factors can contribute to the condition. Like what? Just how long do most people have sex for? What should men do if the problem persists? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
