no chance how can americans call it that when only one of their national sports is more physical than it (american football) football (soccer) is a contact sport. basketball and baseball are not. also football require you to be stronger, fitter and faster than in basketball and baseball.

Not all Americans think soccer (football) is girly. You have to have a hell-of-a cardio system to keep running like that. I think Americans bash soccer (football) because it's low scoring and a score of 2-1 or 1-nil is not uncommon. That's why baseball is no longer the top sport in the US. After 30 seconds, Americans bore easily. MTV generation.

One thing: Every time a player gets hit on the leg they go down and act like they are dying. then when they realize they aren't going to get a foul called, they get right up again. If someone did that in American Football (or any other sport), they would be considered worse then a punter and probably laughed off the field.
Also, hockey is more physical then soccer as well.

Next time some idiot says that to you ask them if basketball or baseball are girly sports. Comparing American football to World futbol is not even possible, two totally different games with totally different objectives. Dont be upset though, rugby playing countries say the same thing except they also make fun of American football.

I'd like to make some Americans see some footage of British football. Perhaps the broken legs of Dave Busst and Djibril Cisse. Or Edwin van der Sar's nose last Sunday, Momo Sissoko's dislocated shoulder.....and then say it's a girly sport.
None of them were ever tackled by Tommy Smith (Liverpool 1970s/80s) or Ron Harris (Chelsea, same era-ish), that's for sure. No amount of namby-pamby padding would save you from them!

No it isn't girly. Anyone whose acutally played knows that. Of course, saying basketball has no contact, well, that means a person has defiantely played a different game than I have or has not watched H.S. or College ball. Both Basketball and soccer have similar philosophies and movements. Both require explosive energy, jumping, and cardio strength. Oh, other US sports, UFC.. that is contact and the only pads are some small gloves.

Soccer is better by far ,it is famous all over the World, and played
by all the Nations. American Football is Played only in the US. It is more skilful than Yank Football it takes good Balance and an awful lot of Stamina to play it successfully.

I'm not a fan of soccer, but soccer is not a girl sport. It requires agility and stamina to play soccer. It's not about brute upper body strength, but speed. It might not be as physical as American Football, but I think it's more competitive.

The best solution is to gain control over it. As someone already said, stop when you're getting there and relax. Pay more attention to pleasuring your mate--orally, perhaps--and avoid rubbing your penis up against anything while doing so. It will take work on your part and patience on both parts. Learn here http://EndPrematureEjaculation.enle.info/?4Tyg
As a last resort, some antidepressants curb sexual functioning with the intention of learning the pleasure of restraint after which you could taper off them. Here's your goal: the longer you can delay your orgasm, the more intense it will be. So it isn't just a matter of satisfying your mate. This is the main reason some claim stoned sex is better, unlike drunk sex which can leave you unable to perform (brewer's droop). You enjoy exploring each other longer. And remember, oral isn't just one place. It's all over, paying particular attention to kissing, and TALK about what each of you like. Strange how people don't talk about sex when they're the ones doing it.
