Is having sexual desires when you're single wrong? ... how hard is it to control sexual desires when you are single?

Does anyone else have a self control problem?

I not only can not control myself in most sexual situations... but I don't want to.

I mean there are so many reasons in society to say no, but, at the same time, there are also many reasons to say yes.

Why are there so many people that judge you with name calling or shaming?

Isn't it really an individual decision that everyone should be allowed to make judgement free?

Should the answer be the same for everyone, or is is different for everyone depending on social, economic, religious criteria or other factors?

And if celibacy is the only answer how can sexual desires be eliminated? ... aren't they a major element of human nature?

  • When I was Single Sex was my Favorite Hobby. It is perfectly healthy to think about Sex and engage in some sort of Sexual Activity including Masturbation even when Single. And I say don't let Religion Rule your whole Life, there are so Many Faiths None of us Knows wgat the Real Deal is... I'm Roman Catholic and believe there is a Loving God that has Bigger Sinners Frying such as Hitler and Dahmer and many alike...

    • Yes, I agree!

    • I would like for y'all to join me on my next masturbation nation party.

    • Thank you for MHO @laurieluvsit

  • I want sex all day, everyday. I don't see anything wrong with it. I don't believe in the whole wait until marriage or be in a relationship to have sex mentality. Sex is absolutely one of the best things in life and I think it should be enjoyed as often as possible. If you think that makes me a slut so be it.

    • Totally agree!! :)

    • @laurieluvsit thanks 😊

    • I have never understood why some people want to call any girl that likes sex without being married a slut? I don't agree with that. There are plenty of ways to avoid getting pregnant and not every girl wants to get married young.

  • I think everyone should do what they are comfortable doing. For me for my emotional well being I need sex to be connected with someone I have a good connection with. I've tried to rush too fast just once and it was not good for me. Anyone else can do what they are comfortable with. I personally can't separate sex from feelings.

    I don't think anyone should be shaming anyone. The only time someone should say something to a family member or friend is when they think what they are doing is harmful to them.

    Going too long without sex can be unhealthy and having too much sex with too many people can be unhealthy if someone is in an unhealthy mental/emotional state on either end of the spectrum of sexuality.

  • Enjoy what you feel and NEVER let anyone tell you that you are wrong, feeling what you feel! If they do, tell them to FCK off, and take their lies and tell them to someone else!
    Religion, society, and government are all trying to control, and restrain your natural feelings, and when those are contained, forced to be ignored, it causes physical and emotional problems!

  • I've been a follower for a while now and I'll be honest I never imagined you would have a moral dilemma on this particular subject. You always struck me as someone who's very modern in her way of thinking and I assumed you were also modern when it comes to sex as well.

    Let's be honest, even religious people. Can anyone truly control their desire? I doubt it, else why are so many men of the cloth pedophile rapists.
    It's human nature and fighting it is pointless, also no one will judge you for having sex even when single it's 2020 virginity stock value is at an all time low no one is buying into it anymore.

  • If you didn't have sexual desires when you were single, you wouldn't get married.

  • Many have forgotten what sex is about... bringing a new life into the world. But in the quest for dopamine / pleasure, people have forgotten this. I have no problems concerning self control, and as a man it is a complete waste of potential, creative energy, life force and power to be promiscuous, to masturbate and to bust nuts all over the place.

    However, people are as free to make their own choices, as much as others are free to judge those choices. But just take a real hard look around. More broken families, antibiotic resistant STD, billions of abortions, and young men fapping to porn with zero direction in life. This is what a lack of self control brings to society.

    Chase pleasure... and you are really chasing pain.

  • I don`t think there is anything wrong with having sexual desires at all when you`re single. I also don`t think you need to try to control the desires either. I`m single and love to masturbate and if i want to do it i can do, and i am free to cum as many times as i want to and as often as i please.
    It`s my body and i can do what i want with it

  • It's not easy... Honestly that's a big reason of why I'm on here

    • It's a place to express my desires

  • One can't control sexual thinking when alone. It is providence's gift.

  • Very much F, but i do recommend doing it safely. So if masturbation is not enough, sext or watch porn, if thats not enough get a fuck buddy or a friends with benefits. But don't have sex with a lot of strangers if you don't have to.

  • Do what you want, just be responsible about it -- do what's necessary to prevent unwanted pregnancy or StD transmission. Then enjoy your life and don't feel guilty. Maybe read "The Ethical Slut" by Dossie Easton and Janet Hardy.

  • Just find a steady FWB’s it’s only bad of you are sleeping with multiple partners

  • One is funny because when you feel like you should say no, you continue to look for reasons to say yes. But when you feel like the answer is yes, you don't even second-guess it.

  • There's nothing wrong with sexual thinking or masturbating at all, it's natural and normal. If you want to do it then do it :)

  • I am not sure, I completely understand your actual question. The topic reads something like being single and having sexual desires, wrong or not. But why I on earth would that ever be wrong to have sexual desires, single or not? It is one of the most common, normal human urges, and that doesn´t have anything to do with being single or not.

    But then you write yourself "I not only can not control myself in most sexual situations" - and that just sounds like it has a completely different meaning? Like it actually becomes a real problem for you in some situations, to control yourself?

    • Is having sexual desires when you're single wrong? ... how hard is it to control sexual desires when you are single?
      ... lol

  • Lmao. 🤣 I wish I had this problem. I get urges, but often I do not have consent to act on them.

  • Nothing wrong with it. Have sex as much as you like, some people are idiots who can keep their mouth shut. Its not like it matters what they think of you anyway

  • It certainly aids in procreation, maybe that was the Creators intent?

  • It's a personal choice and who cares what anybody says or thinks as long as you're not spreading disease everywhere or leaving babies everywhere you go. Just be responsible and don't run around lying to everyone you're wanting to hook up with. There's nothing wrong with telling someone it's none of their business what or who you do. Or just be straight up and tell them you're just having fun for now and they can do their thing and you'll do your thing and when you guys get together cool. What's stupid is when I was young and a chick would call me a whore for having a lot of girl friends I would say, guys can't be whores we're just popular as to say only females can be whores. I was joking of course cause it was none of my business what anybody else did. But a lot of men believe that.

  • why the fuck would it be wrong?
    what are you?
    ned flanders grandma? you go to church every day right>?

  • Where have you got that information about "B"?

    • That's what I have heard

    • Well... what you heard is totally wrong, and who ever said that lack a lot of information about muslim religion... or is a liar In Islam, masturbating, or having sex with someone without a marriage certificate its totally forbidden either a female or a male. And also in any God's based religion, know that God forgives any sin if you really asked forgiveness from your heart. We all have sexual desires if we were religious or not... but its about controlling these urges... And moreover when you don't have sex or masturbate or satisfy your urges, you would have a wet dream, that would satisfy it. I voted F so to say And the guy that masturbate has some pretty intense verdict in Islam and i don't know if i should mention it or not... A last note, Don't judge before you know the whole truth, in anything in your life not just this... it would just makes you ignorant more than disrespecting
