Masturbating is good for you. Stop self harming.

[–] mycatiskai@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

There haven't been any studies to conclusively prove that this is the case but some correlation shows that nocturnal emmisions are lower in men who masturbate more. Probably more than likely this guy would have nutted in his sleep during that month of no fap.

satire?

Nah it's good for prostate health to masturbate at reasonable intervals

[–] Bluefruit@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm glad you mentioned reasonable levels because like with anything, it can be harmful if done too often.

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there an actual specific reasonable interval or does it vary person to person (of course putting aside any specific issues like muscle injury in the area for an example)

[–] Bluefruit@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It does vary from person to person. Whats reasonable for you may not be reasonable for others. Libido as well as age is gonna be a factor. Some people do it multiple times a day and others are a couple times a week.

Again as long as its not hurting you or others, go for it man. Like others in this thread mentioned, in moderation, its a healthy thing to do.

How often is too often?

[–] Bluefruit@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Great question.

Essentially if its not interfering with your life in a meaningful way, you're fine.

If it causes you to miss work or if you're unable to wait until you get home and end up doing it somewhere its not acceptable, then its an issue.

Or not being able to stop or reduce the frequency can also mean its an issue.

However, rather than listen to some nobody in the internet, you'd want to consult a medical professional.

If you have to ask, it's too often.

If you have to ask, it’s too often.

Every time you jerk off jesus weeps.

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If that's what gets you off, I don't kink shame... just enjoy in moderation, there is only so much lubrication tears can provide...

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

People who worry about other people’s masturbation habits concern me.

I'm not taking a side, but unless there's some new evidence, virtually every study I've seen is filled with little to no evidence this is true and sums up with something to the effect of 'results uncertain, more research needed'.
