It's something I've wondered about, then noticed comments on something similar in a thread on ejaculating during sex, so thought it worth asking. I masturbate every night before going to sleep, as a matter of routine. I have since about 16 or 17. And then would sometimes at other times in the day. So since that age, I've possibly masturbated to ejaculation on average ten times a week. Is this healthy, normal? I suppose I particularly want to know if it will affect performance. I know sperm is very much renewable, and that there's a healthy amount of masturbation to relieve stress, libido, and that it can even possibly be good exercise to stave off cancer (not to exagerrate this, just acknowledging it). So that's all cool. But does the difference between the brisk pace of masturbation and the slower rhythmic movement during sex make climaxing during sex more difficult? During the one relationship with another man I've been in, we had sex ten times, and on all but one of those times, I was the bottom, so this isn't really about what happened then. I didn't climax on that occasion, but I felt it was the kind of thing that would come with practice. And he never seemed that interested in the idea of ejaculating, he almost seemed a little embarrassed by it. But I'd like to know that if I was in a relationship where I was on top more, that I'm not doing anything in my own time now that would make it any less satisfying.
I have a chug every night too, have done since I was about 13. It's perfectly healthy for a man to do this, in fact, ejaculating on a daily basis has been linked to reduced chances of testicular cancer.
It shouldn't. If you're really concerned, you can vary your masturbation practice and really take your time... there are a number of books and videos that talk about masturbation practices and one of the best things you can do for yourself is set aside 30 or 45 minutes to approach it slowly, using deep breathing and very slow and delicate touch. It takes some getting used to to go that slowly, but it can be very beneficial and can actually enhance your experiences when you have a partner.
Um 10 times a week is not bad, dude. I jerked off 6 or 7 times this past wednesday or thursday. I think I'm the one with the problem hahahaha
I switch up my routine every now and than...sometimes I won't do it for a week just for the feeling I get when I finally do it after my 'hiatus.' It feels...how should I say it...orgasmic. :lol:
I'm more of a morning person. I've heard that most men wake up with erections. I just like to finish it off and then take a shower.
Masturbation is a perfect natural thing for a person to do. It is healthy and normal. The realm of where things start to get a little hairy is when you see little joy in doing so. Do you feel really good after doing so? Is it something special that you do for yourself? Do you always masturbate to porn? I dont know, Im not you. Somethings to consider are that if you begin to become bored with masturbating then it is maybe a good idea to give it a rest for a little while. Which is up for your debate on how long. It could be a day, a week, or a whole month. Also when masturbating to porn more often than not then you begin to confuse your own fetishes. When porn is brought into masturbating consistently then you begin to loose your ability to fantasies for yourself. Consider a few of these, and see if any of them designate. If you have any questions feel free to PM me and we can talk about it.
Thanks for all your contributions. Just to be clear, I don't worry that I masturbate too often, I know it has beneficial effects, and it doesn't interfere with my daily life, or even with my love life while I had a boyfriend. I simply wanted to know if there was any way masturbation could effect how I am while having sex. And from what I read here, not particularly, but not a bad idea not to do it if I'm expecting to have sex in the next day. Which I probably did anyway.
