If heard that masturbating frequently (such as more than once a day) can cause a mans penis to get shorter, is this true?

HONEY! ABSOLUTELY NOT! oh my goodness...WHERE have you heard this!? NO! there is NOTHING wrong with masturbating! it is in fact a very healthy thing for people [both men & women] to do! the only reason those rumors get around is because of our puritan upbringings...so we won't masturbate and embarrass our parents.
you won't go blind, you won't get hairy palms, and your penis won't get smaller.
the only time masturbation is a problem is if it stops you from functioning in daily life...or if it stops you from having a normal sex life with a partner.
keep on having fun!! its just about the safest sex you can have! it also releases endorphins that relax us, make us happy, and help us sleep.

No.... but it can lead to some skin issues. Things like chafing, soreness and dry, scaly skin are all quite common and unpleasant, so you should use a penis health creme every day. This creme will moisturize and protect your penis from these and other more serious issues like a loss of sensitivity down there. Any guy who masturbates (which means all of us) should be using one of these cremes.

Absolutely not! Masturbation has nothing to do with penis size - and masturbating will not make your penis shorter! That's an old myth intended to scare boys so they wouldn't touch themselves.

No, but it can cause problems IF YOU DO IT WRONG.
Do it right standing up, dont rub againist your bed face down.. That puts pressure on the penis and well... Long term effects are.. Lets say... Undesirable...

No, no, no, no, no, no and no! Old Wives tales are started in the matter of the M by religious quaks. Do it until you are tired and then do it some more.

no, exactly the opposite, it lengthens it by stretching the tendons and veins and arteries

No, it won't change the size, in any direction.
