Ask QC: I can’t stop laughing when I cum

Dear Ask QC,

For some reason I can’t stop laughing when I cum – I just crack up which is okay when I’m just jerking alone but the few occasions I’ve had sex with another guy it’s sort of been a bit of a disaster.

I’m 19 and not that experienced but I’ve been jerking since 13, I’ve always laughed when I’ve cum and never thought it would be a problem but since my last 3 experiences with guys I’ve been told I’m weird and one guy even got really angry.

The thing is it’s not like I just giggle or laugh for a few seconds when I cum, it’s like for 5 or even 10 minutes – I really can’t stop. I know it’s probably a bit weird so I want to know why I do this or how I can stop doing it. I still live at home with my parents and don’t have any other gay friends (I’m quite shy and introverted) so this is kinda affecting my confidence now to meet other guys. Am I normal or can I stop this?

Hugs

Oliver xoxo

Hi Oliver and thanks for writing in with your questions and concerns. Feelings of elation when you orgasm are quite normal as endorphins are released as well as neurohormones oxcytocin and prolactin. This results in a euphoric sensation and that rush may well just be the trigger that causes you to respond by laughing (it’s even known to cause some people to cry). It’s an involuntary response and you’re not doing anything wrong – it’s just that we are all slightly different (for example, not everyone is ticklish in the same places or even ticklish at all). It sounds like you have got used to this response of laughing when having an orgasm and masturbating alone but the fact that you have experienced some mixed responses to this during sex with other guys shouldn’t become a problem too. Firstly, you could warn your partners prior to sex that you may have an uncontrollable fit of laughter when you cum – most guys will be okay with this especially if they are expecting it. Over time you may be able to curb the length of time you laugh, particularly if you’re with a guy regularly and he is used to this. Don’t be disheartened or think there is something wrong or unusual about yourself because of this as there are a lot of guys who will join in and laugh with you too! So dear QC readers, what advice would you give Oliver regarding his uncontrollable laughing when he cums? Do you do this too? Or did it affect you when you were younger and did it reduce over time? Do you know of any techniques that Oliver can use to curb this (if he wants to suppress it)? If you can help him in any way then please share your thoughts, advice and experiences in the QComments section!
