old hick I know it seems perfectly reasonable that jacking it will help you get to sleep that night before a big test. It'll relax you and send you off into dreamland in no time so you'll be well rested for the exam, right? If only life were that simple. The sad truth is it'll just keep ya up until all hours and the next morning, not only will you feel like shit, you'll also feel pretty fucking stupid... at least this is what my friends tell me. 000121

kari my best friend over the summer constantly complained cause he couldn't get laid. when i told him to masturbate, he told me he couldn't because he always felt too guilty about it. he was catholic.

fuck catholicism for making something as cool as masturbation into something bad. those bastards ruined Rob's whole summer.

Thyartshallshant I wish more women would masturbate.
If i could give every woman in the world one thing, you know what it would be? A vibrator. And they would love me. Millions and millions of womem would have there first orgasm because of me! Wouldnt that be great!?! Its actually sorta of a fantasy to me.
001201
...
Thyartshallshant again I feel bad for my girlfriend. We have a long-distance relationship, so we cant touch each other and give pleasure to each other. But I masturbate. She doesnt. Im getting pleasure and shes not. That makes me feel bad. Ive tried to convince her to finger herself, but shes reluctant. I wanted to send her a vibrator, but she said no. What should i do? 001201
...
Dr. Rhin If I may offer some advice here...first you need to discover why she doesn't masturbate? If this problem stems from her being taught as a child that sex is a 'dirty' thing, then this will take time for her, and patience from you, until she learns that exploring her body is a natural and healthy thing to do. However, if she is just reluctant from embarrassment, and lack of knowledge on the skill involved, then help her open up to you, in anyway you can, especially when you two happen to be together. Show her how to do it...and be patient. 001201
...
Dr. Rhin If all else fails, tell her to become re-acquainted with her Maytag. There's always the spin cycle baby! 001201

unhinged i'm too sick to masturbate right now...i just sleep all day long.

you have no idea how much this sucks for me since i've been getting off at least once a day for the past couple of weeks which is a lot for me.

i am a girl. i admit to masturbating. so there. sometimes nothing works better than your finger.....unless it's someone else's finger.

how can i get my wife to masturbate?

is there no hope?
001209

Thyartshallshant I know the time will come when she will put her fears, and opposition behind her. She will open up to the fact that her body is beautiful, and its a wonderful thing to give pleasure to it.
But until that day comes, im just short of being a happy man
