Tarakin said:There are things in life that can kill the libido for a while. Too much work for example. Maybe this explains the waves that seems to go with it?
maharat48 said:Even for women it can be hard, to be wet the entire day afterwards... nothing but a shower wipes the thing off...
tickledkitty said:Baby wipes. They're good for so many things. I started carrying a handful of them in a plastic bag in my purse when my daughter was a baby and have continued, even though she's six now.
Keeping a container of them in the bedroom is handy, as well.![]()

tickledkitty said:Maybe it's more people of like mind recognizing each other? Is that silly?
Pure said:hi maharat,
1)i wonder why you say, "problematic"? i think there are men who masturbate 20-30 times a day, and i'm not sure that's considered 'problematic,' or that themselves do.
2) isn't the issue entirely subjective, e.g. suppose a woman feels like masturbating ("has to") just once a day. depending on her upbringing, family, etc. she might find that disturbing.
Belegon said:That's a huge mouthful and very, very true.
Some of society seems to view this as shallow or shameful. I myself made the mistake of overlooking it, or rather of listening to people who said it wouldn't matter so much after a while.
Silly. Sex is so basic a part of our beings. There are very few factors as important for a long term romantic involvement. Now if only I could jump back ten years and remind my younger self to listen to the voices inside instead of the ones outside...
maharat48 said:I did not say problematic, throbbs did. For some women, the nagging need of having to masturbate at all, to give in to the urge, could be considered problematic...
When I was young I thought I could conquer it if I were really, really good.

Belegon said:Not at all... I love that moment of recognition. I agree, it's in the eyes...sometimes the body language.
It's always a delicious moment to feel that spark jump, even when I'm not interested in pursuing it in any way.
tickledkitty said:Yes, it is.
How about when you see that person periodically after that? Like maybe the pharmacist at the grocery store?You still have no intention of acting on it, but now you have this ongoing thing with this person. It kind of vacillates between being lovely and being slightly uncomfortable. Then one day that person vanshes, and maybe it all becomes a case of missed opportunity, lost chances...
Camilleon said:Is it problematic? Hmm...it makes it hard to concentrate sometimes. It makes me feel different. I always wonder if I am keeping my sexually smoldering ember adequately hidden behind my PTA mom exterior. I think so, but I feel like a chameleon.

Ever tried to fit masturbating on your endless list of chores?
Your toys aren't doing it for you anymore?
Have you published over 50 smut stories of varying quality?
You might have a problematically high libido
How do you cope?
Maharat
I always heard the message from everything i read, and every adult, that masturbation was _an adolescent excess_, that disappeared when people married. Ha! i don't know if you'd agree, but _lifetime mainstay_
is closer to the mark.

Pure said:i'm puzzled by your statement
"I did not say 'problematic'"
You opened the thread with this:

Problematically high libido support thread

An offshoot for the "women, lost your sex drive thread".

I suppose another thread might deal with the reverse... (and address Slick's comment). A woman who's sex drive is "problematically high".
