The Premature Ejaculation App 🍆
From Brennen, the maker of The Premature Ejaculation App:
"I started this project while trying to solve the issue for myself. I had struggled with premature ejaculation since highschool and finally at age 23 decided I didn’t want it to ruin my love life anymore."
Puns aside, it takes guts to publicly admit a problem like this and creativity to build a solution. Read more about Brennen’s project.
