Almost got caught, when I was 16 or 17. It was the middle of the day, and I was in my bed. I heard footsteps and the door opening, so I stopped. My mom asked when I was under the covers and my face was red, and I said I felt like I had the flu.
I got one to beat all you guys: It was summer of 2008, I was laying on my bed naked masturbating, my mother, quickly & on purpose, without knocking, barges into the room. Long story short, I was grounded for a week (I was 20 @ the time!!!!), & was forced to read lengthy bible passages
Your mother really over reacted, but since you still depend on your mommy for your basic needs, her house, her rules. once you are providing for yourself and have your own place you can do what you want your way.
Well, excuse me, but as a broke college student. I have no choice but to live at home with my religulous fanatical parents!
Try not to feel so entitled, it,s good that you are going to college to better yourself, but your mother should not have to compromise her standards because you can,t afford to be on your own, I repeat her house, her rules. When you do have your own home you will enjoy that same privilege that she does now. I notice you are only 20 yrs old, when you have lived a lot and learned a little you will under stand and appreciate better.
I'm 22 now & still stuck at home, but I shouldn't have to be forcefed the christian bullshit that says masturbation is sinful, because its not
You are absolutely right, it is a perfectly normal thing to do, but your parents are probably very deeply entrenched in puritan values that religeon teaches, and will probably never understand or change, a lot of people take their religeous beliefs as the actual word of god not realizing that the bible, koran and every other publication has been revised, changed and adapted many times over BY MEN, not god to convey THEIR OWN interpretations of what was originally written.The two main functions of most religions are to control people and to make money, I will probably get blasted for my opinion, but I also understand your situation and can only say grin and bear it until you can change it.
The only mention in the Bible that comes anywhere near to mentioning masturbation is the story of Onan, which is what the Church bases its condemnation of masturbation on. However, if you read the full story of Onanism you will see that it has nothing to do with masturbation, but to withdrawing before ejaculating, so as to avoid insemination - the only form of birth control, I might add, which the Catholic Church approves of.
I am sure pineman is probably right and that is my point , people will blindly do whatever their religeous leaders tell them to do , or not to do without question, the preist or pastor or rabi or whoever said it , so it must be true. In our society masturbation is generally thought to be nasty and taboo, and most religeous leaders are much like polititions and will not buck the system and tell it like it is if they want to remain popular. If a man of the cloth were to support and advocate the practice of masturbation he would be run out of town and ridiculed and labeled a sex deviant, yet I would venture to say that a good many of them masturbate in private. It is just something humans do.
Onan may have been killed for refusing to impregnate the woman, not for the actual "spilling of the seed"...
Yup bin cought before, it was quite funny actually and i was a little embarresed, but it passed withough much notice. That was about a year ago. Now about a month ago i was sneakely trying to drink some of my captian morgans spice when i hear the door open. I had no funiture to hide the `26 behind so i whipped down my pants and shouted that i was masterbating. Again it passed without much notice, just some awkwards silent stares.
Had a few close calls but never been caught, thank God. I like to be smart and pick my spots, which means doing it when I know no one is going to come into my vicinity.
