Okay! This post might be a little too much for a couple of you guys. This entry contains a bit talking about sex/masturbation, so leave now if you have a problem with that! I warned you...!
Today, my friend and I were playing a random game of Questions. We just asked questions back and forth (no repeats!) and had to answer them 100% honestly. We were bored and had nothing to do, so we were going on for quite a while. I was running out of questions, so I asked him, "Have you ever looked at porn?"
He froze.
I was a bit confused. I wasn't asking if he masturbated, so why was he all embarrassed. He refused to tell me the answer and we got into an argument (only lasted 2 minutes until we made up). He then explained to me that any topic that even slightly relates to masturbation is extremely embarrassing. I thought it was only him exaggerating, but I then asked everybody around me. They all agreed. Masturbation is a no-no topic.
Why is it so embarrassing? I read that masturbation is a healthy thing that everybody does, so I thought it was an open subject. I was surprised that people were embarrassed by it, but openly describe their sex lives to everybody. Masturbation is just having sex with the most wonderful and beautiful person - Yourself. What is there to be ashamed about? There's no fighting, pregnancies, selfish ending-before-you-finished, extra fetishes you are not attracted to, STDs, and unhealthy relationships attached! I say masturbation has much more benefits than normal and risky sex. Is it as exciting? Maybe not. Is it so big of a difference you should be ashamed of it? Of course not!
I would do a lengthy and detailed paragraph about the wonders and excitement of masturbating, but I shouldn't even be online right now! Therefore, you shall settle with a fast forward to the ending:
Before you ask; Yes, I have masturbated. I have done many awkward attempts, and none of them reached to anything THAT big. Sad, isn't it? Sex is just too much hard work and takes WAY too long, and I never really got turned on without forcing it. Sex isn't my thing. I'm too immature, and I'm sure I'll get better at it later. I'm not ashamed of admitting it. I'm a little embarrassed that I have not been successful at masturbation. I mean, what girl, in the spring of her youth, cannot masturbate without injuring herself? I don't mean by being a masochist,
What do you think about masturbation?
Good luck! :)
I totally agree!
ReplyDeleteLike you said, I don't get it how everyone (openly) talks about sex and their own sex lives, but when someone mentions masturbation, everyone just freezes. Nothing wrong with it. I think. You've mentioned it as well: no STD's, no pregnancies, no "Oh my God, you suck at this!" talks, etc, etc. So why is it so awkward to talk about it? Why are you awesome if you have sex at 12 and a loser if you masturbate at that age? Hello! You shouldn't even have sex at 12 years old, let alone be proud of it and talk about it! Ugh. I don't get people, sometimes. No, scratch that. I don't get people at all!
Don't worry, I've failed at masturbating as well, haha. But I think it's kinda cool, even if you fail, at least you know what's your thing and what isn't, and who doesn't like to explore their body, anyways? :D
Sincerely,
