    Thafuck's the point??? (the point of sex? the point of life?)

    Anyway, do any of you guys experience feelings of humiliation, futility, or embarassment masturbating?

    I know I do.

    Oh yeah...impotence!

    Masturbation makes me feel impotent, pathetic, unmanly or something.

    Doesn't matter that I have a throbbing hard-ass erection right in my hand.

    humiliation or futility? no one sees me (not very often anyways) and it's not futile, it feels nice. it'd be nice to have some sex too, but I don't want to do the work or deal with the consequences

    I guess you're more reconciled with not having a partner.

    " Hey, hey - they say I better get a chaperon
    Because I can't stop messin' with the danger zone
    No, I won't worry, and I won't fret
    Ain't no law against it yet "

    I know this one might be a shocker if you're already having shameful feeling about the act solo - but just because one has a steady sex partner, doesn't mean you gotta or will stop wanking.

    And as the body starts to go with age, it's good to keep up the wankage for health!

    Time for a paradigm change, not only for a happy healthy Peter but for your mind's sake as well. We should never feel ashamed of our base functions, it just snowballs into bigger issues.

    It's more complicated than that. Which is just as well.

    I do remember wanking a heck of a lot when I lived with my girlfriend of 3 years. More so than today even.

    i know im a chick, but masturbation is awesome
    i do love watching my guy touch himself, its ridiculously hot, especially if he cums on me. i mean, um, anyway.
    i can see how it would be frustrating if it was the only avenue left to someone, but doing it now and then is healthy for a multitutde of reasons

    It's pretty lame, but nothing to be ashamed of.

    it's totally necessary for good health, physically and mentally. i know you get sick of doing it yourself after a while, and you taper off. the more sex you have, the more your want. but LAME?! never say so.

    I'm depressive. I'm also in a little bit of a rough patch right this minute.

    But my issues with masturbation run a lot deeper.

    They do for most guys, because you wish you were having sex with women instead of your hand. Then you realise you want a women to be in relationship with you and when you get old enough you realise you want a woman you can settle down with and have kids of your own.

    Unless you're talking about something completely different that is more personal and less general.

    I do not, but sometimes I get bothered that I waste so much time on it. However, it keeps me happy, and that time is going to end someday either way; best to enjoy it however I find to do so.

    Yeah. Actually, when I think about it, I've been feeling the same sense of futility from casual sex lately.

    Maybe my sense of embarassment is my difficulty being emotionally intimate, and using drunk sex and porn to make up for it.

    But even that sounds a little to neat and linear.

    wanking is not lame, nor is it something to feel ashamed of! the body is beautiful, and its functions are awesome! why feel bad about or have a distaste for something that feels good? i know i love to masturbate, and i know i'm not a guy, but i had to post, because it makes me sad when i see people who feel guilty about masturbation, or don't find themselves sexy enough to be turned on for masturbation, etc. etc. it's yours, why not pull on it? :)

    Thanks for the post, sweetie.

    But I suspect, in my case, my feelings about masturbation have less to do with puritanical anxieties, and more with my capacity for emotional intimacy with the opposite sex...which is to say, with the object of my fantasies while masturbating.

    P.S. Just to clarify, I'm not unhappy with my body or the way I look nor do I find sexual pleasure for its own sake shameful or troubling. My initial post may not have made that clear.
