I really don't think this particular time ever actually existed, although many people seem to think it was a 1950 til the evil 1960's N. American phenomenon (usually the same types who claim "the 1950's were just like Leave it to Beaver!" or "Christianity spread peacefully throughout Europe!"). If you look throughout history, the idea of marriage as a purely motivated, romantic act of love is relatively new, as it was usually just meant for political reasons (after which the political trophy bride could usually be cheated on as often as wanted by her husband with no repercussion), and brothels were just as popular throughout most of known history as porn is today. The past has simply been censored and romaniticized, and when it comes to history and people's motivation for things they do, all of the sex has been conveniently edited out. You have to remember that humans as a species have spent millenia now learning new ways to kill each other, and being led into countless wars fought for the greed of a highly-ranked group or even a single man, which still continues to this day, and yet people in comparison still act as if casual sex (and even masturbation) are horrible, evil things plaguing humanity. I just don't understand it. Last edited by mlc82 : 05-12-2008 at 11:38 PM. |

| Jorge were you born in the Victorian era or something? Still believe children should be seen and not heard to? Oh and I thought I would just point everyone to a research study that is well worth the read. Frequent ejaculation may protect against cancer - 06 April 2004 - New Scientist |

Personally I believe theres a beauty and energy to the space in time between people meeting and beginning a sexual relationship that though nothing like love... Is still one of the noblest things two people can engage in... Well, In many cases at least. Surely we live in a sad world If it takes a few years, An exchange of symbolic wedding vowels and another symbol of "marriage" to deeply connect with a person. And in the words of George Carlin.. symbols should be left to the "symbol(simple) minded". sex is one of the most natural, enjoyable and instinctive things in existence. And it is actually PROVEN by science to bring people closer together through release of certain chemicals in the brain. And furthermore, Let's not forget - Without sex none of us would be here. If our very biological/emotional/psychological makeup(and even our physical health) is geared against abstinence in so many ways... Than don't you think that mother nature in her infinite wisdom had some other values/beliefs in mind for us. Anyway, You're all entitled to your own opinion, But I'm pretty passionate about my opinion on this matter so I thought I'd throw it in. Cheers, Dima

| A point I would make is that if you masturbate to porn a lot you are basically conditioning your brain to associate feelings of lust and arousal for women you don't know... essentially to see women as sex objects. It can make sex seem almost like porn- normally bad porn because most of the gils I attract are not as attractive as porn stars. I speak from experience. Age 12 - 18, twice a day is what it took to entrench this unfortunate mindset. I'm still trying to unlearn it two years later.

| Health Benefits of masturbation and sex (as well as orgasm): Long Life: more than 1 orgasm per week has been found in people who live a significantly longer life than those who have orgasms less frequently. Less likely to develop breast cancer: breast cancer is found in men and women, and regular orgasms are found to play a role in preventing this type of cancer. Healthy Heart: regular orgasms are found to link to people being 50% less likely to die from heart failure or coronary heart disease. Healthy Immune system: regular sexual activity has been found to stimulate and strengthen the immune system, which helps us fight off colds, flus and other viruses. Youthful Appearance: regular sexual activity has been found to help maintain a very young and youthful appearance in both genders. Relieve Cramps: it helps relieve premenstrual and menstrual cramps. Happier Mood: has been found to elevate our mood. Reduces Embarrassment: reduces wet dreams and spontaneous erections in teen males. Releases Body Tension: orgasm relieves tension in the body and on the nervous system. Helps You Sleep: whether you have insomnia or just trouble sleeping sometimes, the release of endorphins is very calming and will help ease you into sleep. Calms Your Cravings: sexual stimulation releases phenetylamine, which helps regulate your appetite. Lose Weight: Sex burns calories! Especially if you have a very vigorous bout. Pain Management: Can help reduce or eliminate pain (e.g. headaches, chronic pain, cramps, etc) Safe Sex: Is a form of safe sex, and can be enjoyed with a partner without the concern of pregnancy or STDs/STIs. Happy Marriage: Promotes higher levels of satisfaction in married couples. Enhanced Sense of Smell: sexual activity releases prolactin, which stimulates the brain and enhances smell. Reduces Depression: the absorption of semen by women has been found to reduce depression. Bladder Control: You are doing kegels when you use the bathroom as well as during sex. So both are at play using the same muscles. Prostate Health: regular sexual release has been linked to a reduction in chance for getting prostate cancer. Fertility: regular sexual activity promotes fertility by regulating female menstrual cycles. Good During Pregnancy: sexual activity has been found to protects against pre-mature birth and other problems in pregnancy/birth. Reduces Suicide: Suicide has been found high among people who are celibate or have little or no sexual release. So the next time youre feeling down maybe you should get better acquainted with yourself. Sexual Awareness: masturbation is how we first learn about our sexual nature, and plays a huge part in how we relate to others sexually. A good view on masturbation generally relates to a healthy view of sex. If you're not gonna have sex til marriage? I suggest you look into something called the Fleshlight. It's not expensive, and will SERVE YOU WELL!! |

| I think it's pretty clear that masturbation doesn't do harm to anyone, and in fact is a great way to enjoy sexual pleasure, and the only way for those of us who aren't sexually active. I'll stay out of the religious/moral whatever stuff, but for physical reasons you may not want to masturbate too much because, at least from my experience as a guy, frequent masturbation causes loss of sensitivty in one's penis, at least temporarily. When the time comes for real live sex, you may not want to masturbate too much (if at all) for, say, a day or two beforehand to ensure that you can perform when called upon. And I do agree with Kaminski's comment that you should rely not just on external sources such as pornography for stimulation but also your own imagination, although porn can be very educational ;-)

| Oh yeah... I would avoid doing what I call "passive" masturbation, e.g. when you thrust your pelvis against a mattress/sofa because you might ejaculate while not fully erect. Doing this on a regular basis can make it more difficult to ejaculate when actually erect in a sexual situation.

But yeah, I guess if you enjoy that, why wouldn't it elevate your mood? Lol. Perhaps regular vaginal absorption will reduce depression in others? Lol! Last edited by Spartan : 05-18-2008 at 11:01 PM. |
