people have been demonizing it for most of the AD years i think but it’s quite pleasant really. are there any proven negative effects?

    Ima be real with you.

    Arguing all masturbation is inherently good isn’t any better or morally superior than arguing all masturbation is inherently bad. Extremism is extremism and literally all I was talking about was moderation. If you can’t handle someone arguing moderation, it sounds like maybe you really do have a problem.

      Lmao, I’m at a stage of my life and on the types of medications that would make wanting to masturbate a lot a welcome change.

      Masturbation (in private obviously) is a neutral act. Anyone trying to characterize it as inherently good or bad is suspect. Anyone trying to sell you a cure for something mainstream society tells you is shameful, doubly so.

        Trumpers really took this one and ran with it during COVID with not masking and spitting in people’s faces.

        They literally want to hang the people who tried to sell them a cure for something mainstream society told them was shameful, a disease they decided was a “librul hoax.”

        …because guess the fuck what? They were actually, genuinely, acting shamefully. Too bad they had no shame.

        I don’t think this as strong of an argument than you think it is. Sometimes mainstream society can be right about an act being shameful.
