It is immaterial whether you are in the United States, Nigeria, Canada or China; whether you sleep on palatial beds or on a pako (wooden platforms) a healthy young woman would expect to be adequately taken care of in the other room.
This expectation cannot be realised however when the man suffers from weak erection, also known as erectile dysfunction and impotence.
It implies that his manhood would refuse to rise up for action when the occasion calls for it.
Countless number of relationships have broken down on account of that, while, those weathering the problem are doing so at great price: in lack of sexual satisfaction and constant altercations

The penis needs adequate blood flow to become erect and maintain it.
It also relies on a series of valves to close when it fills with blood, which in some cases some cases stop working as they should.
-Nervous system problems, which includes issues with the brain, spinal cord and nerves which work together to send electrical impulses that help the body, including the penis to move and feel.
