Is this even possible?

I was talking to my friend about masturbation between periods without sex.

I said I masturbated 1-3 times a day, whereas he did every month.

He then told me some whacked out theory that doctors have proven that, if a man masturbates too much, he might

a. become impitent
b. will not be able to ejaculate as well
c. not be sexually aroused to the same degree

Have you guys heard this same thing? I always thought that not masturbating for a long time can screw up your system (especially if you do it often), more so than masturbating 24/7.

1) your posts are very penis-centric.

2) 'IMPOTENT'

3) I had an ex once that jerked off a LOT. This resulted in me not being able to get him off easily because he'd become so used to his own touch. a real downer in all situations. I don't know about impotent, but it took him for goddamned EVER to come, and when he did, it was never a lot. So, take from that what you will.

Tis borrex.

From my experience the more you practice the more you want.

A note on #3: a few days off gets you back to normal amounts of semen. The long time before orgasm could have more to do with him having trained his cock to get off by his hand only, so nothing else would really do.

I've heard things like this before but never really bought into them. My ex masturbated all the time and wanted sex all the time as well. He always took awhile to come during intercourse, but it was usually rather quick if I was performing oral, or even a hand job. Many times he would come from a blow job, then have intercourse an hour later. His frequent masturbation never bothered me. Suppose my point is every guy is different, just do what you think is ok for you. If you want to whack off 3 times a day, I say go for it.

moderation is the key

The wacked out theory is wacked out, but I do think that too much masterbation tends to make one not as good a lover. When you masterbate (ok, when *I* masterbate), the sex is just on one's own terms. I don't have to think about anyone's enjoyment but myself.

In partnered sex, you often have to put off your own pleasure, even just for a second while you get into position for your partner. So while I think that masterbating three times a day (average! wow!) seems like a lot to me, and *might* negatively impact your love-making, it's not going to make you impotent or any of that crap.

of course, never masterbating doesn't seem healthy either . . .

Isn't it sad just how few things have simple answers?

masturbation = Itch
