Ah, my dear Bucky! I think you're kidding. Being male, you don't have those, as far as I know.

Kegel exercises arent just for women. They can strengthen mens pelvic floor muscles, too. These muscles support your bladder and bowel and affect sexual function. Kegels can help if you have trouble with bladder or bowel incontinence, or if you dribble after you pee. They can make sex better by giving you more feeling during an orgasm and greater control over ejaculation.
