Is it OK to masturbate???

Answer 1

I guess it depends on where you are... there's a time and a place where it is okay. More than okay. It's natural and normal and healthy. There is no way to tell your partner what you like or give suggestions if you don't already know!

Answer 2

A study by Stuart Brody, a professor and medical psychology consultant, showed that a test group which only had intercourse had, as a whole, lower blood pressure in stressful situations than those who had intercourse but also had masturbated for one or more days (Brody, 2006).

Masturbation involving both a man and a woman can result in pregnancy only if semen contacts the vulva. Any masturbation with a partner can theoretically result in transmission of sexually transmitted disease by contact with bodily fluids, and such contact should be avoided with any partner whose disease status is uncertain. Objects inserted into the vagina or anus should be clean and of a kind that will not scratch or break. Care should be taken not to fully insert anything into the anus—any object used should have a flared or flanged base; otherwise retrieval can require a visit to the emergency room. Most modern dildos and anal plugs are designed with this feature.

A man whose penis has suffered "an invasive procedure, blunt trauma or injury during intercourse"[5] may suffer later in life from Peyronie's disease. There is the rare event of penile fracture[6] which may occur. Phimosis is "a contracted foreskin (that) may cause trouble by hurting when an attempt is made to pull the foreskin back"[7]. In these cases, overly aggressive manipulation of the penis can be problematic.

Compulsive masturbation can be part of a sexual addiction syndrome.[8]

Lawrence I. Sank (1998) speculated that the habit of masturbating prone (i.e. lying face downward) was responsible for serious sexual problems, including anorgasmia and erectile dysfunction, as suffered by four men he examined. He coined the term traumatic masturbatory syndrome to describe the effect.

As of 2006 there has been no follow-up research and the idea that prone masturbation causes male sexual dysfunction is not familiar or widely-held within the medical community, and thus should not be credited as such until further research.

Some sources, however, continue to give credence to the idea. One sex therapist (Margolies, 1994) has condemned masturbation by rubbing against a pillow or mattress and Lipsith et al (2003) suggest that masturbation could play a part in male psychogenic sexual dysfunction (MPSD), citing Sank as their authority.

Answer 3

It only has health benefits unless you rub so hard you cause damage to your penis. If you are talking from a ethical stand point that can only be decided in your mind. Ethicaly I think that it is wrong and cause you to do and think about things you brain should not be thinking about. Others would disagree with that statement. Ask your friends, parents, pastor or someone you trust what they think about it.

Answer 4

Yeah

Answer 5

No, because you're just fooling yourself into thinking your happy. True happiness only comes when you truly are happy exposing your soul to a person. Doing that tricks your mind or you trick your mind into doing it, so it isn't that different than doing a drug or something.
