Masturbation



Masturbation used to be percieved as a sin and a grave insult to society. Now, times have changed- There are still those who think it's a sin, but under the law, it's no longer illegal. Governments have stopped criminalizing "masturbators"- for the time being, while they're busy trying to get people to stop smoking and eating fatty foods. Maybe they'll get back to regulating people's sexuality later. I can't see why anybody should worry about what other people do when they're alone. They don't do it out in the open (most of them don't), so why worry about it? Masturbation belongs to the private sphere of life. Just like you don't usually talk about your sexual life (to me, doing so is inapropriate), you keep your experience with masturbation to yourself. On the other hand, masturbation does not usually involve another person, so by talking about it, you don't expose somebody else's private life- just yours. So I don't see anything wrong about bringing the subject up in a conversation to have a good laugh with your buddies.
These guys don't quite share my opinion on the subject. There are certain parts in their advice that might make you fat, lonely and crazy... but at least you won't masturbate!

There's useful stuff there, too. Like when they talk about exercising and self-improvement through thinking in a certain way- it all works. I think, though that you'll be much better off using these techniques towards achieving something worthwhile, like learning to play an instrument, or making friends, rather than trying to stop masturbating.
