Well, I think you have to masturbate sometimes, in order to NOT think about sex. Sometimes sex is all you can think of until you cum.
I think porn and masturbation are two very different things.
I do watch porn a good bit. I'm a virgin too. I don't think it makes me objectify women more. I have a very good respect for women, and I don't want to objectify them.
I think porn definitely has its drawbacks though. It may make someone less likely to get out in the real world and find someone, since they can see and experience everything online. This has maybe happened in my case, because I am pretty shy.
Porn can also send the wrong image to people if they let it. You need a strong sense of respect for women from your upbringing/family/logic.
I don't think there is anything wrong with masturbating at all. masturbating to a lot of porn can bring up some bad things, but I think masturbating without porn has so much less potential to lead to something bad.
Our bodies need to ejaculate, which is why when you don't masturbate for a while (3-4 weeks in my case), then you start having wet dreams anyways. If you are not having sex, (or even if you are) masturbating is very natural and harmless.
That being said, too much or perversions of good things can always lead to bad things. For example, a person can like apples and eat a lot of apples. Apples are great, but if they only eat apples, and have an aversion to any other kind of food, that is harmful. I think a lot depends on the mindset behind it.
''Porn can also send the wrong image to people if they let it. You need a strong sense of respect for women from your upbringing/family/logic.'' very good point
There is truth in what you say about masturbation when it comes to porn but not necessarily about masturbation in general. People tend to masturbate because they are horny, they don't get horny because of masturbation. If they don't masturbate they will still have sexual thoughts and get horny, otherwise they wouldn't be masturbating in the first place.
There is a school of thought that says if you are more busy and more physically active then you will have less time to be thinking about sex and less time to masturbate. However, you can only be busy so much of the time each day and there will always be down time when you have thoughts running around your head.
Pornography is a different matter. If you are watching a lot of pornography and not engaging in a real sex life then you are both satisfying and building frustration at the same time. You are also getting a very distorted view of what a real sex life is like and what real women are like. If you spend too much time watching porn then you may well be neglecting other aspects of your life such as social interaction and, hence, improving your chances of meeting a girl in real life.
It is not the case though to say that watching porn causes you to objectify women, any more than watching scenes about murder cause you to minimise the value of human life. If you have a healthy and strong mind then you can discern between fantasy and reality.
MHO!
For the men, they kinda have dementia from excessive masturbation. They don't tend to remember things much.
when you masturabat for first time you will do it more and more
Yes, because it feels sooo good. Once you've tasted it, you naturally want to feel this heavenly pleasure again. Not sure though how is it a bad thing

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!Masturbation is BLEH. Its kinda like something you do just to purge yourself from being horny. If you enjoy it a lot, cool more power to ya lol. Porn is also BLEH in my opinion. Porn creates unrealistic expectations of sex. Same way barbie dolls create unrealistic illusions of beauty. Masturbation really depends on the person, and age group I suppose.
I believe there may be some truth to it. Based on personal experience.
Orgasms reduce being horny, the more satisfying the orgasm the more satisfied the person is. Porn can help to improve the quality of orgasm by extra mental stimulation.
All orgasms start in the brain, anything that helps satisfaction reduces desire, if only for a short time.
Masturbation is the most healthy and fun activity you can enjoy on your own for free, orgasms reduce stress levels and can reduce predatory behaviour in some.
Slakes off sexual desire. A safety valve.
False, it makes a lot of people horny but not everyone. Masturbation has never made me perverted/horny. It has never influenced me to watch porn.
it's true.. mind always thinks about sex!
Porn may overstimulate a person and plant recurrent sexual thoughts, thus that person will come back for more.
In terms objectifying... no, has nothing to do with it I think.
That is not true. I masturbate a lot as do many of my females friends. We are Christians and we do not indulge in porno materials.
Personal I masturbate because I love having the feeling of giving my body an orgasm. Sort of feeling you derive when tickling your ears with a feather. Instead of having desires to have sex.
I believe strong masturbation is healthy but abuse of it can be very detrimental when u don't understand the purpose of a thing.
What do you masturbate on?
Well surely do not use pornorgraphy to fill my appetite but I do it because of the release of sexual tension. Is for that reason why males masturbate. Not because we are perverted.
Yes I understand. Not all are perverts and it is a natural need. I just wondered what do you masturbate on instead of porn (as men are visuals); Fantasy is enough for you to get off?
Nahh
Not necessarily. The people thatbitbaffectsbin that way were already weak minded.
we born with sexual mind.
If you don't have the right partner you have to masturbate! What else?
I think the reverse is true, actually
I don't think so. Trying to repress it causes more problems.
Its absolutely true!!:)
Masturbating more does make you hornier on the whole.
I used to watch porn but its never affected my ability to get off without it. Its a perk, thats all.
I wouldn't say either is bad per se. I guess it depends on how it affects the individual.
And you want to tell me that you are the only woman in the world that doesn't mastrubate?
I'm not 100% sure about that. The flip side is that it helps to get a good release from time to time. It's unhealthy to not have any kind of sexual activity.
Yeah. This is definitely true.
why?
@Armanazar porn is horrible for you. The more pron you watch, the more anxiety you develop when you think about actually having intercourse with a person. You also won't be able to get off without porn as you will be addicted to it. Although women are less likely to get addicted to porn, the more you watch it the more you need to watch to be satiated. Also the porn industry is terrible: but that's for a different topic.
@Armanazar 1. I personally know the guy who used to masturbate a lot and was also very horny in his behavior. Today he masturbates rarely and is very calm hardly thinks of sex. 2. In generally the guys I know who are very horny, almost pervert masturbate a lot. 3. I used to masturbate a lot too (I am a girl) and I saw sexuality everywhere, I had very vivid imagination. With less masturbation I am thinking less of sex and I am more calm.
