Masturbating is sooo right! It’s the best feeling ever and I do it as much as I can get away with (I’m doing it right now even)
Wrong as in 'because some mythical sky friend up above the clouds says it is'? Or because the rules alleged to have come 'from above' were written by a few sexless old men centuries later and they thought they'd make more money from making something that everyone did feel guilty and so pay the church for forgiveness? Of course for many it's the thrill of doing wrong that makes it so good, so wank away and we'll all go to Hell together.
Nothing wrong with it at all. If there were something wrong with it, they would’ve locked me up long ago and thrown away the key! But seriously, even though it’s not my first choice, it does help release a lot of tension and gives me relief, especially when it’s not a good time for sex, or if I’m traveling and on my own.
The facts of masturbation are that virtually every male over 13 does it, it is physically and mentally beneficial, reduces stress, encourages a youthful attitude to life and self, enables the development of a good understanding of what brings you pleasure and helps prevent prostate problems. The overwhelming majority of the responses to this question have affirmed that masturbation is not wrong. However, that does not mean that a lot of men feel comfortable about engaging in it. Think about it. Those who don't feel shame, guilt or discomfort are more likely to bother to reply to this enquiry than those who do because they would need to admit that they do it but still feel they are wrong to do so, to admit to doing something they feel is not right. I am of an age when I grew up in a world where sex and masturbation were not talked about and wanking was strictly taboo. The language around masturbation (specially male masturbation) is negative - wank, wanking, wanker, jerk, toss, tosser).Being well read and informed, I knew masturbation was normal when I started to do it and that everyone did it. I loved it from the first orgasm and thought it fantastic but, the social pressures of the time meant I still felt some guilt and dreaded the possibility of being found out. A little of that still sticks after all these years.
No; there's nothing wrong with masturbating. We're all sexual beings, and masturbation is a universal human experience. Science says the neurochemicals and hormones released by your orgasm relieve stress, elevate mood, can moderate things like dysmenorrhea, BPH and prostatitis, and even clear up your skin. Jacking off is good for you.
Ive likely responded to this thread previously. Masturbation is absolutely normal. Remember, as guys pass 30, they can suffer prostate issues. One of the symptoms can be blood in the ejaculate. Sometimes it can be a distinct discoloration. Sometimes it can be a different smell. There's no other way than through masturbation and best, cumming on a table type surface, to actually look at your own cum. So masturbation is a specific thing that men need to do. It also helps clear out 'old stuff' more effectively than the body does, itself, which can delay potential prostate issues. So it's necessary. Good job it's enjoyable too
Im so keen to make reticent guys realise that masturbation is good, so they do it daily (at least), that I'm tempted to do a demonstration video - how to cum on a table - so they know they're not (and they won't be), alone in doing it. Or maybe I want to enjoy it with guys. Either way, i guess it would be a rule breach in a thread post. And a dm won't reach those guys.
It is natural and healthy and not at all “wrong,” so long as it is done in the proper place. Virtually all cultures condemn public masturbation and consider it something that should be done privately, either alone or with consenting individuals who are themselves age appropriate. For adults this will mean only other consenting adults should witness it. There’s also a reasonable argument that it is better if masturbation doesn’t take over your life, although IMO that’s context specific, and even then it’s a mental health and socialization issue, not a moral one. For example an older retired person might spend most of his time watching porn and masturbating, and having already developed his personality and saved enough money to not have to show up for work, it seems to me like a good way to spend the day. If he’s in a committed relationship then his spouse or companion’s interests should be accounted for. That doesn’t mean he shouldn’t masturbate but it does mean he shouldn’t ignore his responsibilities as a member of a couple. A younger person needs to do more than spend all day jerking off, although there will still be plenty of time to also masturbate. Where to draw the line depends on the individual’s circumstances.
It's 2024 and 2025 is waiting in the wings... and if there's someone who believes that masturbation is wrong, something is seriously wrong and it's not masturbation.
That reminds me of the adage about an older guy taking all day, to do what he used to do all day. Also that youth is wasted on the young. Imagine an older guy (60+) with loads of experience teaching or mutually exploring another's body together, and being as hard as a 20yr old. Many are. At least hard enough to get in and stay in. And many last longer than even 40-somethings before cumming. I digress. All men should be masturbating daily and as much as they need. If it prevents them from doing normal stuff that they should be doing or if they ignore their sexual partner, I suggest they reign it in a bit; include masturbation in their sex life.
I actually think it’s quite right. It certainly only seems to have benefits and no know harmful effects. I’ve never gone blind of grown hair on my palms so… yeah
The moron who first came up with this idea way back in time hopefully was strung up for all the damage they've caused through the centuries. When I'm masturbating, nothing gets in the way. And if some religion or whatever has something to say about it, fuck em. Any of em. (Okay, I'm done ranting!)
