If the joining sufaces are metal, liquid wrench will help. If fiberglass or carbon use WD 40 as Tat says!

Next time you join the rod rub the male end on the side of your nose and that problem will go away. Do so every time you assemble the stick.

Arrow the old timer solution

expand one half with gentle heat

contract other half with cold

sometines you use vibration
from say...a paperless palm sander ect.
to get a penetrating oil or
lubricant to get it -> in there.

gone fishin I agree with the nose junk trick. I have done this for years with every two piece rod. It does work like a charm unless you have a crispy sunburn.
