YES READ THIS :- Masturbation. Most people do it — yet so many people worry about doing it! That's because there are a lot of myths out there that masturbation is dirty, dangerous, or something to be embarrassed about doing. But the truth is, masturbation is safe and healthy, and it's here to stay. People of all ages do it. Guys do it, and girls do it too. Single people and people in relationships do it. Some people do it a few times a day, and some do it a few times a year. Let's get to the bottom of some of the masturbation myths that make people so anxious about being caught red-handed.
Myth #1: Masturbation is unhealthy.
Maybe you've heard that masturbation makes you blind or damages your sex organs. This couldn't be further from the truth. Masturbation is not physically harmful in any way. In fact, it has a number of physical and mental health benefits — here are just a few:
Masturbation releases stress and physical tension. Many people masturbate to relax, and it can help some people fall asleep.
Orgasms — whether they're from masturbation or sex play with a partner — can act as a natural painkiller. One study from 2001 found that orgasm can ease migraines faster than medication. Some women masturbate to relieve menstrual cramps. Research has also shown that orgasms may even prevent endometriosis, a disease of the uterine lining.
One recent study found that frequent ejaculation from masturbating may reduce a man's chances of developing prostate cancer.
Plus, masturbation is the ultimate form of safer sex — there is no risk of pregnancy or infection.
Myth #2: Only people who can't "get any" masturbate.
Here's an interesting fact — people who have regular sex partners actually masturbate more often than those who don't. Some people are concerned when they find out their partners masturbate — they wonder, "Why would someone masturbate when they could just have sex? Does this mean that my partner isn't attracted to me?" But many people — both in relationships and single — masturbate when their partners are unavailable. Some use masturbation as a kind of "dress rehearsal," to learn more about what they find pleasurable. People can learn about their bodies through masturbating, and this can help them communicate better with their partners about what they enjoy sexually.
Myth #3: Girls don't masturbate.
Some people think that it's OK for guys to masturbate and have sex, but that girls shouldn't. Unfortunately, our society is often more comfortable with men expressing their sexuality than with women, so many girls are taught not to masturbate — or not to admit to doing it. But the truth is, girls and women do masturbate, and there's no reason they shouldn't. In fact, one study showed that women who masturbate have higher self-esteem than those who don't.
Myth #4: It's bad to masturbate every day.
Some people masturbate every day — or even more than once a day. That's fine. So is there such a thing as "too much" masturbation? According to counselors, it's only when masturbation gets in the way of daily activities — like going to school or work, or meeting friends — that it would be considered "too much." And not many people have that problem. Also, some people worry that masturbating frequently will affect a girl's fertility or a guy's ability to produce sperm. It doesn't. A guy may find that he has less volume of semen if he ejaculates frequently, and his semen may contain less sperm. But that doesn't mean that his sperm count will be reduced in the future. The testicles produce and store sperm beginning at puberty, and sperm production continues through most of adult life.
So forget those rumors of hairy palms and shrinking penises. Masturbation is a safe and healthy way to relieve sexual tension, explore our sexuality, and discover what feels good. Let's give ourselves a hand — or two!

Well, first off it depends on your choice. If you don't feel like doing it once a day, just try it once a week. It's not like a crime or anything, and if you are too embarrassed about your parents knowing, then go somewhere privet. If you are tired or don't have "fun" then at least try it once a week. Second, It is true that people can masturbate three times a day. I have a friend who "claims" to have done it seven time, but it is still easily possible. Third, There are really no side effects of masturbation. It is to pleasure the young body as if in sex. It is nothing wrong at all. If your friends say is gross, then trust me, they have never tried it. Don't listen to those people that say "Oh, you can get blind from it" or "You can get STDs from it" cause you really can't. It helps the skin become more smooth or even helps your way of life. Last, The amount of masturbation for girls and boys is different for both. It is up to the person, but accurate studies show that the average for masturbation a week for girls is about two to three times a week, for boys, anywhere from one to five times a week is average. Don't be afraid, it is a normal factor in life. If you are about four-teen then you are my age, and it is perfectly normal to have masturbation. Although, privacy is something you also need. (I have a 26K square foothome so privacy is easy to find :o)

Masturbation
Masturbation is the act of touching or rubbing one's own genitals and getting sexual stimulation from the touch. Masturbation is sometimes called "playing with yourself." Almost everyone masturbates at some time in his or her life. Babies usually find out that touching their genitals causes a pleasant feeling. When children reach puberty, they have many new sexual urges. They sometimes satisfy these urges by masturbating. Some people, especially adolescents, have been taught to be ashamed of their sexual urges. When they have these feelings and masturbate, they feel a strong sense of guilt. This guilt can be harmful to a person's emotional health. No one should be embarrassed by sexual urges because these feelings are a part of being human. In the past masturbation was thought to be harmful to a person's health. It was believed to cause such disorders as acne, blindness, and insanity. Today, however, we know that masturbation is not harmful. It does not cause any physical or mental disorder.

YES! It can be very bad for your health. Had a guy friend who had slipped and fell while masturbating. He gashed his head and ended up on bed rest for while. Many women injure their delicate tissue of the vagina and uterus masturbating. If you are practicing safe masturbation then there is no health risk, only benefit.
Benefit's: your not going to get a disease or conceive children.
Several adult men, women, and teenagers, have died while masturbating because they tried a technique, that I won't tell you about, to enhance the sexual pleasure.
Don't do anything stupid while masturbating.

Virtually every man (and the majority of women) masturbate.
As long as masturbation does not interfere with family, social or working life, then do it as often as you like.
