I tell people I masturbate. Right after a handshake, that's the perfect timing

I see one more comment by you about that and you'll find yourself getting time off from the forum.

Even moderate Christians and the non-religious have retained the association between masturbation and shame, as evidenced by the refusal of sex-ed programs to present masturbation as a normal and healthy part of human sexuality, or to discuss it at all.

Personally, I find masturbation boring so try and get it over with as fast as possible. But usually, I prefer to bake cookies (not a euphemism).

That may be back in the day when the Bible was written, but what about now? A lot of lonely folks, some of us don't stand a chance and masturbating is the next best thing, if you can't shag. I'm sure it's less sinful then shagging someone outside of marriage.

But I'm saying that "masturbation is shameful" has been a cultural standard for a long ass time and it's been passed down from generation to generation and is still very much prevalent today. In my family we never talked about it, but I still somehow got the impression that it's shameful from somewhere (church, school, society, etc). When something as prevalent and common as masturbation is never talked about, it takes on kind of a hush-hush, shameful overtone.
P.S.- I'm not religious and don't care if people want to masturbate! Just want to clarify that!

Ya. Strange thing is. Sex is not hush-hush anymore. You hear about it everywhere. See it most movies now, which have very graphic sex scenes. People are still embarrashed to say they masturbate. Even some animals do it.
