Masturbation


Masturbation is a subject which far too many people turn their noses at.

One which strikes embarrassment and shame into people’s hearts, and indeed faces.

But why? We all do it? Why deny it?

Of course, from a religious standpoint, it may be understandable to not admit to the act (if it is committed at all) but for everyone else, it is simply a natural act.

Animals do it. We humans do it. We’re compelled to. There should be no shame, as there should be no shame in the discussion of sex.
Of course there are times when discussion may be inappropriate – say, when grandma is round for tea – but otherwise, what’s the big deal?

  1. I completley agree with this one, why should we be ashamed, ive said it before but in my household the whole masturbation and sex conversations were always discussed openly, but saying that i do think it has alot to do on the environment you grew up in, if your taught to think its an unapproacable subject then you carry this with you as you grow older.
