OK to the people that feel guilty afterwards a quick question. What is your religious affiliation? About 98% of the time when I hear or read the words guilt and masterbation in the same sentence there is some connection to religious brainwashing. If you combine that with mental illness than the result can be suicide. The whole thing makes me think of this article I read a while ago and seems to fit this subject: http://www.affirmation.org/suicide_info/sin_and_death_in_mormon_country.shtml Peace Out, Rev J
I've never had cause to feel guilty about masturbating. On the contrary, I've always recognised it to be a perfectly natural & healthy activity - not only for humans, but right across the animal kingdom as well, which proves just how natural it is, and that it is not limited to the perversions of the human mind. In fact the only thing that could possibly be considered as being unnatural is any feeling of remorse attached to it.
never feel bad about it!! Its a great thing. An amazing way to de-stress and its a natural healthy thing to do. At the moment i probably masturbate nearly 10 times a week, and don't have any regret what so ever Google chrome is what i think you should be getting and instead of downloading porn watch it on something like pornhub where its free and is streamed. Once you have downloaded google chrome there is a little tab if you click on the settings button, (Top right of page), the tab is called incognito window, which doesn't record any browsing data what so ever so means you don't have to delete history all the time Care free masturbation!!!
Hey masturbation habitual offenders here, i kno i'm one of them but i'm also the devil to this conversation. I know WHAT your talking about. I HAVE been there and felt possibly the way you do. Can you describe the feeling afterwords moreso?? Here's what I think I've spent alot of time thinking about this because I feel guilty very often after masturbating too and NO its not because I have a religious affiliation, good try though! Yes dopamine is shot through your brain and then your coming down, it happens, some people feel relaxed, some feel great, others forget about it and go mow the lawn or make a sandwhich. Do you know what happens after dopamine goes through the brain? Adrenaline comes in at the same time, masturbating calls upon your adrenaline glands as does ANY activity that increases seratonin or vice versa. When i'm done I usually feel aggravated and guilty because I wanted to NOT masturbate for a longer period of time. Here's anew one for you Hippies! I think it feels better to abstain from masturbation than to cum! you don't get these side effects from cumming but you do from abstaining: -a lingering orgasm feeling in your groin with patience and visualizing can go up your spine and feel like an "orgasm on demand" you can call for the orgasm feeling anytime you like, usually for me if i don't masturbate for 2 days I can get this "energy" going. -no back pain -a feeling of willpower When you don't masturbate or cum you are finding your SOUL!!!!! you are testing yourself and your willpower something that *may* be stronger than the animal inside. I dare you to try!!!:love: When you give in to the urges of hormones you are acting on your animal instincts and the animal part of your brain that is on the inside and is very small. I could write so much more I could go on all night about this, but alas I too masturbate and let myself go for periods of time like right now. sometimes it feels good to indulge, but just know that's what your doing INDULGING, just like having a beer, smoking reef or going for a run they all have negative effects, ESPECIALLY because they are soooo intense as others have said, When your dealing with a force that can control your decisions and actions and that enjoys you* indulging in it,it will have very negative side effects, When something screws with your hormones as much as sex you know your getting fucked up, I think sex fucks up peoples hormones more than a beer or two. The hippie generation forgot to tell generation x that there would be negative effects to indulging in hormone imbalance. check out my thread, it got some good points from contributors and some good info, not like the "go for it" people here http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=407951 STOP MASTURBATING -- - - - IF YOU CAN!! BWAHAHA I dare you to try, betcha can't go 8 days. http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=407951 checkit out! http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=407951
masturbating doesn't help with visualization... When you masturbate your hormones and brain become more susceptible to masturbating again, your hormones and brain become what doctors call "sympathetic" - thats why you want to do it again. Your hormones are out of order and your pineal gland which controls your hormones has to work overtime to pump out more hormones so it can be "sympathetic" and try to get you to do it again. Your pineal gland is also in charge of "it controls the various biorhythms of the body. It works in harmony with the hypothalamus gland, which directs the body's thirst, hunger, sexual desire and the biological clock, that determines our aging process. "
^If you are so against masturbating than what the fuck are you doing in the masturbation forum? Peace Out, Rev J
i'm in the mast forum because we're discussing the abscence and feelings associated with the performance known as masturbation, what are you a smart alleck?:sunny:
What sort of porn is the OP looking at? If it is something disgusting, then I would expect he will feel bad and want to delete it.
So let me get this right. You are opposed to masturbation so you come into the Masturbation forums to post against it. Do you go to resturaunts to sit in the smoking section to tell everybody to quit smoking? Do you go to bars and hand out AA pamphlets? Lead Prayer Vigils at Marilyn Manson shows? The fact that you even found this post shows me that you went out of your way to come into the Masturbation forum. Then post about why people shouldn't masturbate. This isn't true confessions. It makes me question your psychological disposition as to why you are here. Peace Out, Rev J
"adforester" has brought up some interesting points here. And while our cozy little opium den of masturbators is sometimes crashed by self-righteous evangelical types, "adforester" doesn't seem to fall in that category. We've found that mutual masturbation is always best when it's considered a deliciously decadent, taboo, activity. And the occasional visits by evangelical types to our forum unwittingly enhances our masturbation experiences. "adforester" is quite right when he said: "... When you masturbate your hormones and brain become more susceptible to masturbating again, your hormones and brain become what doctors call 'sympathetic' -thats why you want to do it again... and your pineal gland which, controls your hormones, has to work overtime to pump out more hormones so it can be 'sympathetic' and try to get you to do it again..." This reinforces our belief that the masturbation experience is so intense, so satisfying, that, for adults, it can damage your psychological and emotional well-being, if uncontrolled, and not mixed with an intimate relationship with a lover. But we disagree with "adforester" on his point: "... masturbating doesn't help with visualization... " On the contrary, we feel that masturbation, at its highest, and most satisfying form, occurs during "edging", that is, long masturbation sessions of orgasm denial and light stroking, in a quiet, private environment, where one travels down that path, into the blinding light, of fantasyland. Where stange, pent-up fantasies are carefully stroked along into vivid plots, imagery, and detail. And to enhance the edging experience, we, too, sometimes abstain from orgasms for several days, to end our masturbation sessions with intense, mind-blowing orgasms. But we don't think we'll ever "... try to go 8 days without masturbating..." as "adforester" suggests.
hotcalifornia couple - I like your response and i'm taking back the visualization comment! reverand -d But I still think it's fine to talk about the feelings and emotions that masturbation brings up whether it be negative or posotive. And as for talking about not masturbating I was discussing the intervals of time between ejaculation and masturbation and was not condeming it, infact I just was doing it.
I only tried edging a few times and never got any visualizations during it. But I tried total abstinence once that lasted for several days (less than a week) and my mind got into "stange, pent-up fantasies." Actually, they were so bizarre I dare not write them in public and finally jacked off to get back to normal running lusts.
Quoted from Shale: "... my mind got into 'stange, pent-up fantasies.' Actually, they were so bizarre I dare not write them in public... ." Shale has articulated yet another reason so many of our group sometimes "feels bad" after masturbating. Guilt, again, is at work. But it's important to note that, for years, psychologists have labored to explain that strange, weird, dark, and bizarre masturbation fantasies are, in fact, perfectly normal, as long as they're confined to masturbation fantasies, and not acted out in the real world. In fact, such fantasies serve as a socially acceptable safety valve in society. Strange fantasies are, oddly, deeply embedded in our genetic and social makeup. There's even detailed recorded history, of initial contact with diverse stone-age cultures that practiced unspeakable rituals of sex, pain, cannibalism, and torture, either for religious purposes, and, simply for pleasure and amusement. Thank god, for all of us, that civilization prevails and everyone eventually mellows out, and safely internalizes those dark urges and fantasies. Yet, still, in ancient Rome, weird and kinky sex was generally and openly regarded as a "refinement." And even though we thoroughly enjoy mutual masturbation together, we've discovered that we cannot openly discuss our strange, unique fantasies, as they are so different as to be incompatible and disruptive to the mood of our masturbation sessions. Yet, there is no denial of the simple fact: The stranger the masturbation fantasy, the stronger the orgasm.
