writes:Hi. I'm a little concerned.People say that you can Masturbate as often as you want and it's not a problem. But I heard about a condition you can get if you do it too often. I forget the name of it, but all I know is I don't want to get it. Recently I've been doing it a lot more, and I'm a little worried that I could get it.Can anybody confirm my fears, or is it all just a big lie?Lastly, I've started doing it for long periods of time. Going for about an hour before finally finishing. I wonder if this does more harm than doing it several times a day. Please help!

reader, anonymous, writes (12 June 2008): From what I have read, Fade878 is correct about desensitization. I have read several articles and self reports where it has happened. A man can grip his penis more firmly than most any vagina can. If a man gets too used to the pressure that he can apply himself then the pressure and sensations that he gets from a vagina may not be sufficient to get him to orgasm. This does not mean that masturbation will be more enjoyable than sex with a woman who a man has feelings for. It will not. However, excess masturbation may make it more difficult to have an orgasm when he is with a woman,
Fade is also correct about orgasm and ejaculation being separate. As women can orgasm without ejaculation, so do some men. They are separate functions, but it is normal that they occur together. Mine used to begin at exactly the same time, at least as far as I could perceive. For the past few months, I now start to ejaculate about 10 seconds before my orgasm starts. No, I didn't use a stopwatch. That is my estimate. My wife also had a boyfriend who had no reaction to his ejaculation. She only knew that he finished because he stopped and because of the wet spot.

 It's not a problem. There were a couple of times when I was younger and I overdid it. The skin around my penis got a bit swollen. Infection? I don't know. It was a bit sore but got better in a day or two.
Masturbation has never stopped me enjoying intercourse more -- about 500 times more. Your own hand can never compare to a vagina. Just like touching yourself can never compare to someone else touching you.
Go for it and don't worry.

Fade has never had a penis. One's hand is NOWHERE near as firm, tight, or fun as a vagina. Also: In order for your hand to make you a sandwich when you're done, you have to get up and go to the kitchen.
Previous commenters who said that you might have trouble getting it up the same hour/day (depending on age, drive and stamina) as a masturbation sesh are on the money.
Previous commenters who said that porn desensitizes you to real women are right as well. Don't do it. I'm trying to quit. Blowjobs help!
In my experience, not flagellating your tallywhacker leads to higher sex drive, aggression, motivation, and better sex (when one gets it).
Remember, when you get in heat to beat your meat, it's probably just because you're bored and it feels good.
Try this: When you want to spank it, go for a run, do some push-ups or do something else physically exhausting instead. You'll wind up feeling and looking better, both of which will help you land a real girl -- who LOOKS like she should be in porn.

reader, anonymous, writes (12 May 2008): No it can't do you any harm.
Repetitive strain injury? Maybe. But you really got to go at it for hours and hours to get real bad pains in your wrist! and then do it over and over again before you end up with RSI.
Friction burns? Well, if you can do it that fast then good luck to you. It's got to be worth it.
Muscle strain? That's possible. When you strain to "do it" you can pull muscles in your legs or abdomen. But no more than with any other type of exercise.
Round-shoulders? Maybe. But at your age you've nearly stopped growing, so any damage that's going to be done has already been done.
Look, seriously: as long as it's not the ONLY exercise you ever do, it's not going to do you any harm. At worst, and I do mean absolute worst, you're going to want to have sex with some girl and find you can't keep it up for long enough because you were masturbating too recently before you try to have sex... so try not to make it a habit that's hard to break!!

As far as I can tell there are a couple different things that can happen:
1) You will go blind.
2) You will grow hair on your palms.
3) You will go bald.
4) You will experience more acne.
5) You will most likely not be able to have children.
HA! Im just kidden, those are all MYTHS! There really are not any side effects of masturbation other than chaffing of the penis if you are not careful with the amount of pressure you use.
Do note that there is one side effect of masturbating and that is loss of sexual desire and ambition. Meaning, that when you finish you do not desire sex and usually do not have ambition to do many things except to sleep and zone out for about an hour :)
