  • I would have to disagree ~ In earliest youth, masturbation is about discovery. Exploration of One's body's sensual nerves potential. It is said: "Little girls, as with kittens, require NO excuse. They intuitively seek out and WELCOME tactile massage" UNTIL their NATURAL behaviors become irrevocably conjoined to negative cultural censure! "NEVER touch yourself THERE! And Gawd forbid you touch anyone ELSE THERE!"

    Shamelessly exploring especially One's genital's potential, for 'feels good'. BEFORE Interlopers start guilt-shaming "you FILTHY 'sinner' ANIMAL! "
    THERE'S where the eventually-pleasure-crippling subconscious corruption seeps in and takes root--- 'Pleasure' response = 'naughty', 'verboden'. The none-too-subtle deliberate double-entendre of the song lyric: "When I think about YOU, I touch my Self..." An evolutionary predisposition to 'practice' One's HALF of the most intuitive fundamental instinctive reproductive behaviors.

    As One moves into One's adolescence, One learns the physiological release of pent-up stress and frustration experienced in convulsing climax is an ancillary 'benefit'; a way to 'self medicate' frustrated desire for sensation, to circumvent 'Pollyanna' adult's restricting YOU from what they consider 'adult' privilege of the SOVERNIGNTY over YOUR OWN body's potentials..

    By now... YOU now have 'imprinted' what stimulations you KNOW will 'float your boat'; fingering, ... grinding upon or against a vibratory surface, and this in turn, can be frankly communicated to an attentive partner. Mutual pleasuring can NOW occur and if and when it DOESN'T, YOU know the means to 'vent' that pent-up tension.

    Masturbation is REBELLION to SOCIETAL and man-made RELIGIOUSLY-IMPOSED dissatisfactions. One's primate nature intuitively senses abstinence and celibacy ARE NOT the Deity's manifest natural 'default'. Fortunately there DO exit the Tantric-based religions and cultures which employ and 'domesticate' through sublimation animal passions.

    • Oh shit, here we go! Some guys gonna write an erotic novels about rubbing his own dick.🙄

    • It's a great painting tho

    • Yeah, reminds me of tripping on shrooms.

  • I don't think so. Sometimes you want to climax over your own fantasies, which sometimes the other person may not be interested into.. or sometimes your partner may not be in a mood or state to have sex, so masturbation is the option.

    Yes, sexual dissatisfaction may be a reason to it, but not always.

    I masturbate almost daily before sleep over my bed.. it gives me a good sleep.. but it doesn't mean we're sexually dissatisfied. When we do.. we do it right.. she mostly climaxes 8-12 times.. n me 1-2 times.

    • Thanks for the MHO

  • No. It is a form of relieving your hormones when your partner is not there to satisfy them. I think any person that is against masturbation has insecurity issues.

  • Self pleasure if you're single. Possible dissatisfaction if you're taken

  • definitely not. I am in a very happy relationship and sex brings me lots of pleasure.
    the reason why I still masturbate (once or more daily) is due to my extremely high sex drive.
    it has nothing to do with sexual dissatisfaction and it's just me enjoying what pleasure my body brings me.

  • Hmm🤔 I don't think so.. but

  • No I wouldn't say so

  • No..

    • It could be. Anyway, you are the master lol

    • @visio9 😊 lol

  • It could be or else one partner needs a little something extra or just needs some "me" time.

  • Not really. It's just a sign that you have biological needs but unfortunately you can't do it with random men and selective for the men. The problem is you still haven't found the right man to do it while your biological need keep increasing and hard to control hence most woman masturbate by herself in the end.

    I think that's normal and nothing wrong with that.

  • Nope. A man could be an orgasm God but its not gonna stop your hand from throwing out a vinyl dj scratchgasm. You experiencing the sexual experience, and only you will know whats right and whats not, whats gonna touch your button or going to blow your mind. Explore away girl, its natural, its free...

    This is where you say "then it must be for me!"
    If he gets jealous or upset tell him to "grow a pair, does he think he can don't better than you?"

  • Not at all. I have sex with my wife regularly and still masturbate daily.

  • It also could be the shortage of time to do that. Personally, we do something called mutual masturbation a lot.

  • a lot of couples literally just mastrabate on each other. And yes! Just cause the Bing Bong goes into Woo Hoo dosen't make it Connective Spirtual Sex.

  • No, is not.

  • I don't think we are having fun. but in the end we have sex again

  • Not at all.

  • Only if you do it instead of sex

  • No...

  • No, masturbation is a sign of horniness

  • i would say it's more of a sign of wanting to get off in general. Sex isn't always available and sometimes getting yourself off is just easier. I have a decent amount of sex and it is always satisfying in my opinion. I still masturbate almost daily

  • Nope

  • No it's a sign of freedom

  • I would say so yes. If you are in a relationship and end up masturbating it is because your partner is either not giving you the amount of sex you want or they are not pleasing you the way you want it If you end up with your hands when it should be your partner. I had a girlfriend that she would only give me sex once a week when I wanted once a day. I ended up masturbating and we eventually broke up! :(
