Masturbation Frequency:
http://www.jackinworld.com/misc/faqtree1.html#mastfreq
How often does the average male masturbate?
It depends on a lot of factors, the most important being age. For an 18-year-old male, a rough average is once a day or so. This is slightly higher for younger teenagers — maybe 10 or 12 times a week, and slightly lower for older people. You might be surprised by how often adult men masturbate — even happily married men.
I think I'm addicted to masturbation. Is that possible?
It is, although many, many people think they're addicted when they're really just doing what comes naturally. For more on this topic, read the article Is Masturbation Addictive?(http://www.jackinworld.com/library/articles/addict.html).
How can I masturbate less often, or quit altogether?
It's tough; it takes a lot of will power. It can be done, especially if you're driven by very strong religious feelings. However, JackinWorld's position is that it's not worth it. We think you should enjoy the harmless pleasures your body can provide.

MASTURBATION MYTHS:
from http://www.jackinworld.com/library/myths.html
Chances are, of all the things you've heard about masturbation, most of them were absolutely false. For some reason, misinformation surrounds masturbation like virtually no other topic. How do you spot a masturbation myth? One simple method is to ask yourself if the statement is also true of sexual intercourse. When you're masturbating, your body only knows it's getting sexually stimulated; it doesn't know by what means. So, for instance, if the question is whether or not masturbation causes acne, think of it this way: If it did, intercourse would also cause acne. In fact, neither masturbation nor intercourse cause acne.
MYTH:
Masturbation causes hair to grow on your palms.
FACT:
How many people with hair on their palms have you seen?
MYTH:
Masturbation causes hair loss, chronic fatigue, and other problems.
FACT:
Internet scam artists have tried to invent a concept called "overmasturbation," insisting that you have to buy their expensive herbal pills in order to counteract the effect of masturbating more than a couple of times per week. But the pills have absolutely no effect — and masturbating once or twice a day will not make your hair fall out, or cause anything else they claim.
MYTH:
Masturbation is bad for your eyesight.
FACT:
Masturbation does not affect eyesight. This myth probably originated because boys often start having to wear glasses at about the same age they start masturbating.
MYTH:
Masturbation causes your penis to stop growing (or) to get bigger.
FACT:
Masturbation has no effect on penis size whatsoever.
MYTH:
Masturbation causes your testicles to shrink.
FACT:
Absolutely false! It is true that if you're highly aroused, your testicles become engorged with blood and may appear slightly larger and heavier, and that masturbating will make them revert to normal. But they will absolutely not be any smaller than after the last time you masturbated.
MYTH:
Masturbation causes acne.
FACT:
It doesn't cause acne. Like the eyesight myth, this is a case of two things that happen at the same time, even though one doesn't cause the other.
MYTH:
Masturbation causes sexually transmitted diseases.
FACT:
Hello? "Sexually transmitted" means from one person to another. You can't give yourself a sexually transmitted disease!
MYTH:
If you masturbate too much, you'll run out of semen and become sterile.
FACT:
Semen is a fully renewable resource. When you ejaculate semen, your body simply makes more — the same way your body makes more saliva after you spit.
MYTH:
People can tell whether you masturbate by how your penis looks.
FACT:
Masturbation does not change the appearance of your penis. (It does tend to cause an erection, but that usually goes away when you're finished.)

Depending on your age, this behaviour is appropriate and is part of growing of for girls as well as boys. The only problem is that one can be so obsessesed with it, that it has an affect on any romantic relationships you may have and some people, that for whatever reason, cannot get of romantic relationship with anyone is that this becomes the focus of your sex life and that tends to make things kind of wierd and the person becomes a little scary.

no problem with jacking off once a day as long as you do not injure yourself and do not miss out on social activities with family or friends.
Once a day is quite normal and should not cause any soreness or discomfort. Obsessive masturbation can be a sign of depression and it may be possible to cause minor injury to yourself.

dude if you think you are addicted then yes its bad. there are group counseling for this. there is actually people that are addicted to masturbation and they have counseling for this. a friend of mines had to do a report on an addictions. the only classes available on the weekends was the class on this subject. he told me people there was married, single, and most of them were in their 30s- 60s. that they have had this addiction at early teens and it was ruining their relationships and they preferred to masturbated than to have actual sex. so i dont know maybe u can fall into these people i hope not.

You're normal dude! Jacking off is completely normal and healthy! No side effects, substantial short and long term benefits in fact! Unless you're ignoring other things in your life, you can't do it too much. Keep on jackin' and ENJOY!

Once or twice a day is fine. And, if you do it right before bed, you'll fall sound asleep. A guy told me once that his member swelled up from jerking off so much. He said he quit for a day and it went back to normal.

As long as you aren't doing it in public what's the big deal. We all do it...some more than others. It's your stuff....do with it what you want. When you want to stop..you will. At least you aren't addicted to drugs....are you??!! Anyway, do what you want with it. Just don't break it off...just in case you want to use it when you aren't alone! :)

Who doesn't jack off every day?
You're fine. You'll grow out of it. Or get someone else to do it for you.
