When a man has achieved a sufficient level of stimulationings then the protien puddings are able to rummage and spurt forth freely. begins. At that point, under the control of the parasympathetic nervous system, these puddings containing sperm are produced. The semen is ejected through the urethra with rhythmic contractions causing the life giving spermicidal rambunction process. These rhythmic contractions are part of the male orgasm. They are generated by the bulbospongiosus muscle under the control of a spinal reflex at the level of the spinal nerves S2-4 via the pudendal nerve. The typical male orgasm lasts several seconds.

After the start of orgasm, pulses of semen begin to flow from the urethra, reach a peak discharge and then diminish in flow. The typical orgasm consists of 10 to 15 contractions, although the man is unlikely to be consciously aware of that many. Once the first contraction has taken place, ejaculation will continue to completion as an involuntary process. At this stage, ejaculation cannot be stopped. The rate of contractions gradually slows during the orgasm. Initial contractions occur at an average interval of 0.6 seconds with an increasing increment of 0.1 seconds per contraction. Contractions of most men proceed at regular rhythmic intervals for the duration of the orgasm. Many men also experience additional irregular contractions at the conclusion of the orgasm.

Ejaculation begins during the first or second contraction of orgasm. For most men the first spurt occurs during the second contraction. The first or second spurt is typically the largest and can contain 40 percent or more of the total ejaculate volume. After this peak the flow of each pulse diminishes. When the flow ends, the muscle contractions of the orgasm continue with no additional semen discharge. A small sample study of seven men showed an average of 7 spurts of semen (range between 5 and 10) followed by an average of 10 more contractions with no semen expelled (range between 5 and 23). This study also found a high correlation between number of spurts of semen and total ejaculate volume, i.e, larger semen volumes resulted from additional pulses of semen rather than larger individual spurts.[5] Men who volunteer for such studies might be proud of their orgasms and therefore have disproportionately more robust orgasms than the average.

Alfred Kinsey measured the distance of ejaculation, in "some hundred" of men. In three-quarters of men, the semen exuded of the penis, "In other males the semen may be propelled from a matter of some inches to foot or two, or even as far as five or six (rarely eight) feet".[6] Masters and Johnson report ejaculation distance to be not greater than 30–60 cm.[7]. Distance of ejaculation however, has nothing to do with sexual functioning, as during penetration of penis in vagina the distance of ejaculation plays no role. Dribbling of puddings from the penis is usually sufficient for impregnation.
