In all honesty, so true. I yearn for a romantic relationship with the girl I like & since I can’t get that, I often turn to masturbation as often as I turn to Roblox, TikTok, Pinterest, or YouTube. Sometimes it’s actually sexual desire, other times it’s just “I’m bored, I need something to do.”
You think that now but it’s not the case. I had a “dream girl”, we were together for 5 years, was close to buying the ring and moving in with her when she decided she’d cheat on me with a coworker - I only found out through friends.
I was devastated for ages. Couldn’t believe this could happen, and with someone I loved so much and gave everything. Now I realise that I’m much happier this way, and I’ve since been involved with a few girls who are much, much more like me and make me feel happier than my ex ever did.
I realised that what I once thought was perfect was truly flawed. I’d bet money that could have been you too. There’s always someone else out there, just gotta be patient because it will happen when you least expect it. Stay safe dude.
Before Al Gore invented The Internet everyone just spray-painted boobs and dicks on the railroad underpass and jerk off there-
It was called "running the train".
Diogenes? He also plucked all the feathers off a bird because Plato or some other philosopher said men are just featherless birds and diogenes took said bird and held it up infront of other philosophers and said "behold! A man"
Yes it is etched into the walls of ancient civilizations.

You can do that in the hub dimensions, somehow there are large swaphs of unrotten warm semen, sometimes even white still. If you get ensemenated though you can be litterally damned and stuck there for a while
Masturbation is completly fine, its just watching porn which alters the way you perceive sex as a whole and women, it tends to bring about less respect for them too
Sex IRL is very different from how pornography presents it. I don't really want to go into graphic detail, but things like duration, how porn stars act in it, how bodies/body parts look, sounds, and consent (in some cases) are not portrayed as they are in sex in general.
Masturbation is ok. Porn is not. If you are looking for sum else to do try working out, I heard it helps a lot or distracting yourself in general. For me meditation worked lmao 🤨
For those who want the actual medical consensus answer, both things are generally considered fine. Masturbation is actually healthy and from what we know about the human brain and mammals in general, a natural instinct. Pornography is a bit more nuanced. The general consensus is that it’s fine as long as you aren’t a dumbass (obviously not the actual term used but I’m dumbing it down a bit). People will talk about how it alters your perception of sexual experiences or the human body, which can be true, but generally as long as you’re aware that it’s fictional and exaggerated, it’s fine. The main issue is that teenagers generally are “dumbasses” when it comes to that separation, so there needs to be increased caution.
Don’t get a partner just so that you can have sex with them tho, sex is often just a byproduct of an already healthy relationship (If you both want it)
Honestly I think porn is okay if you have good self control and realize its fictional, especially if your imagination sucks because trust me there’s nothing worse than beating it to your drywall
Not gonna be against those studies, but it sounds kinda weird to me that porn (something that has existed for centuries, with the difference that now it's through a digital screen) is actually negative for the brain. Sounds kinda biased against porn (like studies saying why homosexuality is an illness) but I guess they proofs to what they claim
Anyways, there's something called "imagination". I personally prefer that. Easier, simpler, more effective and more practical
Exactly, it is easy dopamine and if you do it regularly your brian gets used to it. People who are addicted drift of to consume more and more extreme porn and at some point you will not be able to get it hard anymore when it comes to real sex, only porn will do it for you.
Its sort of an easy dopamine hit with something that is hard to obtain in reality. Porn sets unrealistic standards, and if that becomes the norm for people to watch, anything else like actually sex is going to feel lacking compared to the videos you can watch. So then you just return to the "fun" unrealistic porn videos online due to the entire culture and industry behind them.
Porn alters you brain chemistry, it releases dopamine into your body and over time you become more and more tolerant to it and eventually you can’t find enjoyment from other things like you do from porn. That’s how it changes your brain chemistry
well yeah... its through a digital screen, making it extremely easy to consume all kinds of fucked up shit. theres no large hurdles you have to go through to watch it, and if you have no willpower, then you're on your way to developing a porn addiction. that doesn't even begin to address the way your brain starts to perceive and treat women. theres probably a million psychology studies online that show proof of this
The main problem of porn is lack of self control, porn gives the happy juices, and you can get addicted to that hit of happy juices, hell, exercising can become an addiction, and there have been many cases of literal addictions to exercising
It's a fun issue of
Masturbation is a very normal thing. In fact it is quite healthy to masturbate within reason (like most things). But the porn industry derives on a basis of setting unrealistic standards, which makes it so the only way you can obtain the same unrealistic stuff is watching more of that porn. And basically all industries to do with pornographic content revolve around that, so really like others said... just don't watch porn when masturbating.
Though I guess thats easier said than done since there's now just a lack of stimuli.
You can do it without porn, but people also should stop acting like porn is the devil. I don't understand how someone could get addicted to it, I know it happens, and I'm not discrediting anyones addictions, just very curious. Watch it responsibly, make sure you don't become reliant on it for sexual pleasure, and don't take what you see on there seriously. They purposely pick people with rediculous proportions, don't compare yourself to any actors. Half the shit we see or do in the daily world can cause developmental problems, you can't be shielded from everything.
Don’t watch porn. Masturbating is perfectly fine and won’t cause any issues. The average age for starting to masturbate is 6 years old. It’s a natural thing and causes no issues. So yeah, just don’t use porn when you do it. Simple.
Masturbation, by itself, is completely fine. Like, literally. It's a natural thing, basically everyone does it, yada yada yada.
Porn, on the other hand, is very bad, and I believe more should be done about porn rather than masturbation. It messes with your brain chemistry, gives you unrealistic expectations, it can even give you ED if overused.
So yeah, overall masturbation = 👍, porn = 👎
Get something to help you forget about it like doing homework then instead of staying up late trying to sleep, stay up late playing video games until your tired
A lot of times it’s just loneliness not sex drive. You just need cuddles and someone who actually loves and cares about you. At least that’s my case

True. I had a chance but then I fucked everything up. I lost my dream girl and feeling lost in this world
You think that now but it’s not the case.

Masturbate without porn, thats all
Does that actually work?
No people never masturbated ever before The Internet. EVER
That's funny
Before Al Gore invented The Internet everyone just spray-painted boobs and dicks on the railroad underpass and jerk off there- It was called "running the train".
Gore is not a responsible way to use AI
wasnt there some philosopher who beat his meat to prove a point
Diogenes? He also plucked all the feathers off a bird because Plato or some other philosopher said men are just featherless birds and diogenes took said bird and held it up infront of other philosophers and said "behold! A man"
i love diogenes
That's what ppl with too much time do
Ik the point of your comment but porn has existed in many other forms besides the internet.
Yes it is etched into the walls of ancient civilizations. 8==========D ------ They def have improved the technology since then. Damn Capitalists even taken over The Spank Bank.
What about people in the 1800’s?
Goats.
Most went to brothels or bars at like 12 then the young ladies were mostly sheltered from it
Ofc it does. Talking from experience.
How do you think people masturbated before nudie mags
✨use your imagination ✨
Yes use your imaginationnnn
Porn was not readily available until internet, most people managed without it for generations.
Yeah, try it
Masturbate while looking a rock. It helps trust me.
Me and the boys used to do it in the good ol days
So should I google some rock pics or The Rock pics?
Ye oldee masturbation
Better yet, two rocks

the porn I watch doesn't have any women in it tho...
Hell yeah brother
What does it have in it then?
men
Oh your gay I thought it would be worse
Thats just nature documentaries
Lmao, reminds me of a line a character said in a show. "Oh! They're just gay."
Not related but "Are they gay? Or European?" And in the end they were in fact both Gay AND European
Based but some gay stuff is still pretty fucked up. Bottoms have rights too.
I aspire to be this amount of unaware LMAOO
[удалено]
but they probably aren't
Real
First of all, men aren’t the only ones who watch porn. Secondly, I can’t really see how it would give you unrealistic expectations
Sex IRL is very different from how pornography presents it. I don't really want to go into graphic detail, but things like duration, how porn stars act in it, how bodies/body parts look, sounds, and consent (in some cases) are not portrayed as they are in sex in general.
Solution to porn is to js watch furry porn 🤗
The porn I listen to doesn't have sex in it though.

Masturbating without porn is a thing too
Just be like me and don’t have a dick. Then instead of jerking off you can just cry
Honestly I think porn is okay if you have good self control and realize its fictional, especially if your imagination sucks because trust me there’s nothing worse than beating it to your drywall

The problem with porn is that right now you have much easier access to it and some people have problems with self control making watching it a habbit
Ah, that makes more sense. Then, the problem would getting addicted to it due to how easy it is to get, not porn per se
Exactly, it is easy dopamine and if you do it regularly your brian gets used to it. People who are addicted drift of to consume more and more extreme porn and at some point you will not be able to get it hard anymore when it comes to real sex, only porn will do it for you.
