Peoples Opinion on Masturbation
Few years ago, I came across an article which was saying that there is nothing bad with masturbation. Momentarily. I agreed with the article - on the basis that masturbation is just like having sex. But when I gave it a second taught, I realize that aside physical effects, that masturbation can have some terrible psychological effects on its victim.

What is Masturbation? Masturbation can be defined as self-stimulation of the genitals to cause sexual sensations and satisfaction.

I have to google up the effects of masturbation. Below are various opinion of various individuals on different websites on the issue of Masturbation. I was unable to figure out the “negative” effects of masturbation. This does not mean that I encourage youths to masturbate. As I said earlier, it can have some psychological effects on some individual.

The following was asked on the popular yahoo question and answer site - What are the effects of mastrubation and whats it relation to size of penis and sexual vigour? Its OK but only if you don’t over do it. And it should only be done when you are really excited or else you are in big trouble. The effects in the the long run are, you might not be able to respond to a woman’s touch. This is serious boss. Will also lead to erectile dysfunction. Be careful. I don’t know about the penis size. But one thing i know is you will be messing up its muscles, not strengthening them and the ladies will be calling it Wobbly Chinkee soon. So do it wisely… The Best Answer for the Question 1

The caption below from Teen Advice Column of About.com is quite interesting - 10 Things You Ought to Know About MASTURBATION- 1. Masturbation is not evil, dirty or harmful - it will not make you go blind, drive you insane, turn you in to a pervert, stunt your growth, give you an STD, make you sterile or get you pregnant. 2. Both guys and girls masturbate, it is a normal and healthy part of sexual development. 3. Masturbation is a very personal thing and should not be done in public places or around people who are not willing partners (think safer sex activity). 4. You are normal if you masturbate, normal if you wonder about it but don’t do it, and normal if you never give it a second thought and don’t do it - it is one of the few things in life that is “normal if you do and normal if you don’t”. 5. Masturbation may make sexual intercourse more enjoyable because you will already know what it takes to “please you”. 6. Masturbation alleviates stress and releases endorphens (the pleasure hormones) in to your system making you more relaxed. 7. Masturbation as exploration of the body is common in children between the ages of 3 and 6, in teens masturbation becomes more sophisticated and sexually motivated. 8. Surveys have shown that 80% of males and 59% of females have masturbated by age 18. 9. Many experts believe that masturbation is more prevalent in the teen years due to a strong fluctuation of hormones; masturbation alleviates the strain of this build up and is a necessary part of development. 10. The only real problems that come with masturbation are psychological and are the result of unhealthy or weary attitudes toward doing it (if you do it but are ashamed) or abnormal practices (for example, public masturbation). 2

It was quite interesting to discover that most of these erroneous believes dated back as of 1820. During the 1820s, some parents prevented male masturbation by piecing the foreskin with a wire and soldering the ends together. Boys and girls were discouraged from masturbation by the threat of blindness, madness and illness. Of course, none of these masturbation-induced maladies proved true. 3

Some people believe that people who masturbate - don’t grow; will not be able to have children; will go blind and suffer low sperm count. It is obvious that all these are false tenets.

According to Coolnurse.com. Masturbation can help one to - relieve stress, menstural cramps, insomnia, spontaneous erections for teen males and also reduce the number of unwanted wet dreams for young men.
