You're exposed to many more germs through having a life and career...

And what kind of career supplants that desire? Must be either the best career ever or the most soul-destroying.


Investment banking mate, 100%.

But yeah I'd say only stop if you don't want to do it any more, which for most people will be never :smile:

You clearly don't know what porn does to the brain.


im saying im not going to judge someone for watching porn, im sure an addiction to porn can be unhealthy also, and it can give people an unrealistic expectation of what sex is like.
but im interested to know what it does to the brain! go on! tell me!
I'd say masturbation only becomes unhealthy or detrimental to a person if their life revolves completely around it. If you're unemployed and spend all day everyday tugging away and looking at pornography, as well as, lets say, blowing off social arrangements etc in favor of masturbating, then obviously its an issue.

Otherwise, there is no "right" time to stop or, really, start. Do it whenever.
I plan on never stopping.

yes, babies and toddlers can be seen touching themselves bc its not necessarily for sexual desire, they just realise that touching themselves in that area feels good -do some research on it. not everyone watches porn when masturbating, but thats also acceptable as long as its not an unhealthy porn (by that i mean illegal, violent, derogatory)



What in earth did you just type?
Normal babies and toddlers do no such things, as you have described.
Hardcore porn is not healthy.

Dudes mostly masturbate out of boredom
If you fully engage in an activity that uses up your physical and mental ability, like for example a sport like football, and you're training for a tournament you will not even think about masturbation.
Once you reach a certain age, there is a deep shame in masturbation.
Losers masturbate
When you go blind :colone:

Spoiler

only when it becomes a problem when you're trying to get it up for the girls - porn can completely rot your brain if you're not careful - right now I'm on a break for that very reason - it will be worth it

there you go - three different sources which tell you that it is completely normal for a child to masturbate :smile: meaning that it is completely natural for people of any age to masturbate
and i never said that hardcore porn was healthy? i simply said that i will not shame people for watching porn

Spoiler

It is haram and you should never start.
There is no age where you need to stop masturbating, but I'm sure you're well aware of this. :sigh:

orgasms?

Not the obvious answer the bigger picture answer...
Why would anyone ever stop giving themselves an endless supply of free orgasms?

I love playing videogames but they don't give me the pleasure that jerkin' the gherkin does, so it's kinda difficult to substitute a feeling with something else when that feeling revolves around one very specific action (or several actions, if it's multi-player).

There technically isn't a limit and people are free to do what they want but I feel like it's just pathetic if you're like 30 and still masturbating because you can't get some.
Like it's more natural to rather do things with another person, if you actually prefer masturbating then something went wrong...

I am 21 years old, and it is still not normal for a small child to masturbate.
You're breaking tsr rules by insulting me.

Yes, tbh the thought of a woman masturbating is indeed odd
