Come on, it's not like we're discussion this in a perverted manner. So far most everything has been very clenical. I'm sure the mods have more maturity than some other people in society who try to suppress any discussion of sex anywhere.

Here's an interesting fact...frequent masterbation actually can prevent prostate cancer. I'm a nurse, and this is what not so recent studies have proven.

If I didn't masturbate, I would end up killing somebody.

I would rather go to hell for self-pleasuring than for murder, seeing as I am probably going anyway.

I think someone is trying to impersonate me.

;)

BTW... I don't think my husband was lusting after me when he did the dirty deed. I'm quite certain it was Laetita Casta and also some chick named Joy Behr. He always managed to leave the pictures up for me to see. Some guys are just never sastified. No, wait... all guys are just never satified...

toolgirl...

Priests are human too, which means they sin.

Not that I think masturbation is a sin, 'cause I don't, I'm just sayin' that just because they're a priest doesn't mean they're infallible.

&quot;<< If there really is a price to pay I bet all members of this forum would be blind by now >>


That could almost be an insult.&quot;


Yakko, whats so insulting about saying everyone here wanks off? (actually it sums up what goes on here pretty well. Getting back to masterbation, I think its the rare person who doesn't do it, you have to worry about.

Text I hope this works (first time I tried a link)

This isn't what I was looking for - I once saw a site by a priest giving out all kind of information about how to stop masturbating. I found it on fadetoblack.com quite some time ago. Does anybody know what i'm talking about?

Now that we are being so personal...

I had to deal with some religious beliefs that a woman should have an orgasm from penetration alone.

I actually had to read a book about it.

Okay, I'm gonna just stop here, just short of TMI

Those pagers are going off now.

What religion is that Isla? That is the first time I have ever heard that. BTW; A discussion about the moral implications of masterbation doesnt at all seem to warrant a &quot;lock&quot; IMHO. I have heard a few benifits to masterbation like the afore mentioned prostate cancer one, does anyone else have &quot;real&quot; medical facts about masterbation? They could also encompass mental health too.

hahaha, this thread is pretty funny.

but on a more serious note, how come girls don't admit to doing it? i know a few who admit it, but not many. surely, they must be lying.

Masturbation is ok in the eyes of the church....

....the Church of Geek Un-Orthodoxy and the Book of Computer Day Saints that is.

I think we just don't figure it out until we are older. Be glad of that fact, because once we figure it out.... well, we don't have much use for you guys anymore. ;)

Girls will not admit to it mostly because when we grew up it was never talked about. It wasn't openly discussed, and I know it wasn't even talked about among my friends. It's considered &quot;dirty&quot; and just not right. At least that's how I always thought it was perceived. It was just something that you didn't do, and if - god forbid - you did do it, you sure as hell didn't talk about it.

No matter how good I get at whacking off, I'm still going to want the company &amp; love of a woman. Getting off has nothing to do with it.

I don't undertand! Most of the threads in OT would be answered to just by watching 'The Meaning of Life', by Monty Python. For instance, the answer to the question here would have been:
'Every sperm is sacred...'
