M*sturbation is when you are sexually satisfying yourself. You can be doing it on your own or with another person near you.\n\nIt is safe.  It is not harmful unless you use utensils or sex toys in the wrong way.  For men, if they pull themselves too much they are going to end up really sore but that would only be harmful if they continue doing so.

How can masturbating excessively so often bad for you? And what is impotence EXACTLY?\n \nMasturbation is neither good nor bad, depending on how often you can afford to do so without affecting the functions of other organs. In one recently published study, ninety-five percent of men and eighty-seven percent of women have practiced masturbation occasionally. The study further indicated those men usually experience an orgasm when they masturbate and learn how to masturbate before engaging in any sexual intercourse. Another important finding showed males who masturbate frequently during adolescence continue this sexual behavior into their adulthood with the frequency increasing. Is this addictive behavior of masturbation harmful to your body? To answer this question, one has to understand how ejaculating works. An orgasm or ejaculation discharges the bioelectric energy (bio-energy) stored by the parasympathetic nervous subsystem via the sympathetic nervous action. It is supposed to discharge the bio-energy stored in the sexual organs. This is why an orgasm is associated with a burst and subsequent release of tension. When the sexual organs are insufficiently charged, the sympathetic system will draw the energy from other organs, deactivating the associated organs and slowing down the response of the Central Nervous System (CNS) which is the commander of the endocrine and nervous function. So, frequent masturbation and consequent ejaculation will result in depleting other organs of bio-energy since the sexual organs can’t support the release of bio-energy being drawn from over-masturbation. The association of masturbation with guilt and anxiety is partly due to the ignorance of the fact masturbation is not harmful. These negative sentiments are partly due to centuries of religious teachings that masturbating is sinful. In addition, many of us have received negative messages about masturbation from our parents or have even been punished when caught masturbating as children. The cumulative effect of these influences is usually confusion and guilt, which is often difficult to sort out. However, the only time masturbation can be ‘bad’ or harmful is when it becomes compulsive. Compulsive masturbation, like all other compulsive behaviors, is a sign of an emotional problem and needs to be addressed by a mental health specialist. Sex, of course, is extremely pleasurable and all things pleasurable are addictive. Over-masturbation can cause serious problems that aren’t limited to the bedroom. Frequent masturbation should be addressed. So, contrary to ancient and popular beliefs, masturbation does not lead to unbridled lust, make you blind or deaf, give you the flu, drive you crazy, grow hair on your hand, make you stutter, or kill you. Rather, masturbation is a natural and harmless expression of sexuality in both men and women and a perfectly good way to experience sexual pleasure. In fact, some experts argue that masturbation improves sexual health by increasing an individual's understanding of his or her own body and of what is erotically pleasing, building self-confidence and fostering self-acceptance. This knowledge can then be carried forth to make for a more satisfying sexual relationship with one's partner, both through each partner's comfort with mutual masturbation and because of the ability to tell each other what is most pleasing. It is a good idea for a couple to discuss their attitudes about masturbation and to calm any insecurities a partner may have if the other should sometimes favor masturbation over sexual intercourse. In some relationships, masturbation may be mutually acceptable. Done alone or in the presence of a partner, the act can be pleasing and add to mutual intimacy if it is not experienced as a rejection. Like most behaviors, without proper communication, the act of masturbation can be a sign of anger, alienation, or displeasure with the way the relationship is progressing.Overcoming society&#

urinating is the right thing to do with it. Masturbation is a perk.

Masturbation is normal, healthy and fun! Your body will tell you when you are doing it too much. Unless you are obsessed with it and it's keeping you from doing other things (which is VERY unlikely!), enjoy it! Forget all that nonsense about side effects. There aren't any! To the contrary, there is more and more evidence it is good for your mental and physical health, especially as you get older. I've been doing it for over 50 years (really!) and I ain't blind yet. Enjoy (at any age!)

Masturbation is like playing tennis against a brick wall.  It's good fun practice, but it's better to have a partner.

There is a strong taboo against masturbation and a lot of myths have been spread. But actually masturbation is very healty. It's good for both genders but especially for males - it is good for our prostate to have a "release" at least once a day.

There is quite a bit of evidence that it is VERY good for your mental and physical health. The incidence of prostate cancer is apparently considerably less on guys that masturbated frequently, especially in their younger years. No doubt that it's normal, healthy and fun...so go for it and enjoy!

First - your spelling is atrocious.  \n\nSecond - If you are asking if it's okay to masturbate because you have been told it's a sin....then the answer is NO it's not a sin.  Everyone does it, including the people who claim it's a sin.

Masturbation is perfectly normal and healthy practice for any male . I am surprised at your age you don't masturbate more than once a day . When a male masturbates he stimulates the prostate gland , that helps to add to good prostate health . Men who do not masturbate have a greater risk of prostate cancer as the get older . Just make sure you use lubricant so you do not desensitize you penis and enjoy .

Masturbation is a normal thing for people to do. Nothing harmful about spanking the monkey every now and than. It said to be good to masturbate to get old sperm out and new sperm in if you don't have sex yet in life.

It is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth. Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other — in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.\n\nBoth from the standpoint of avoiding unwanted pregnancy and that of avoiding sexually transmitted diseases, masturbation is the safest of sexual practices. There is no credible scientific or medical evidence that manual masturbation is damaging to either one's mental or physical health.\n\nOn 2003-07-16, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study which concluded that frequent masturbation by males may help prevent the development of prostate cancer. The study also indicated that this would be more helpful than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead. Another study came to similar conclusions in April 2004.
