    Default a word / slang to refer to such a man

    First I should apologize if this post is not suitable in this forum.
    I know there is a technical term, "premature ejaculation", that we use to say a man has an orgasm sooner than his partner. But I'd like to know if we have a word / slang to refer to a man himself.

    I've never heard of any such word/slang.... and I'd rather like to keep it that way, thanks.
    I'm not a teacher of English, but I have spoken it for (almost) all of my life....

    I can't think of one, nor can my (male) flatmate and Google hasn't helped either. I would go so far as to say I don't think there is one.

    NOT A TEACHER

    I've found one on Urban Dictionary, see here.

    I can't think of noun, but I have heard such men described as 'all wham, bam, thank you ma'am' guys

    Well done (if that's really appropriate!) I must admit I was trying to think of an adjective, not a noun. I would be interested to know just how many people actually recognise that phrase. I've never heard it before.

    I have always associated 5jj's phrase with the "love 'em and leave 'em" type men. They have sex and then leave, I don't associate it with premature ejaculation.

    Thanks for that, CS. I can't see it catching on anytime soon.

    Let's leave it at that, eh?
