Question 1

can masturbation help keep viral gastroenteritis away when everyone else in the household is sick? not as the only precaution, of course  wash hands, etc. to note, the 'house' is a 2 bedroom apartment, with 5 people living in it?

Accepted Answer

: unlikely to matter- I would consider solo sexual activity to have no effect on whether or not you get a bug that is passing through a small household.

Question 2

is it ok to masturbate

Accepted Answer

YES: Masturbation is a common behavior- see http://www.sexualityandu.ca/sexual-health/what_is_masturbation/statistics
There is no evidence that it is harmful. It can be a good way to relieve stress (and to feel good).

Question 3

is it ok to masturbate everyday?

Accepted Answer

Sure: If you're obsessed with erotica so that you're missing out on other things in life that you should / want to be doing, your doctor can help. It's usual for a young single man to enjoy his body daily; many young women do as well. Vary your technique to prepare yourself for different partners.

Question 4

is it okay to always masturbate?

Accepted Answer

Well: as long as it's not to the point that you don't eat, sleep, go to work or school, or have a normal social life!  It's a normal human activity.  Feel free...

Question 5

how to stay longer in masturbating ?

Accepted Answer

Slow down...: Slowing down the pace of delivering mental ; physical stimulations is  the key to make masturbation last longer and the foundation of behavioral modification for sex life. Remember the ending point of total accumulation of stimulation may highly vary among men and even within an individual himself, and is personally unique from time to time, from place to place, from circumstance to circumstance.

Question 6

YES: Sexual release, stress, relief and endorphin release.

Question 7

how much is too much of masturbating?

Accepted Answer

You'll know: If you are so obsessed with erotica and all the fun things that come with your changing mind and body, so that you're missing out on the other things you need to do in life (sports, friends, study, work, relationships), then get with your doctor -- he/she can get you back on track. Otherwise, enjoy your body. Vary your technique & think about the girl you'll marry. Best wishes.

Question 8

is masturbating too much a bad thing?

Accepted Answer

Is Masturbation bad?: No.

Period.

There is no health reason to not masturbate. Nearly all humans do masturbate or have masturbated.

This is part of human sexuality and should carry no shame, guilt or worry of disease.

Question 9

how come i enjoy masturbating so much?

Accepted Answer

Because it's fun: Only an ideologue will tell you that it's unspiritual or will make you care less about other people. If erotica becomes an obsession that's obviously interfering with the rest of your life, get help from your physician. It prepares your mind and body for adult life, keeps you able to focus, and is one of the few things that's really enjoyable that won't harm you.

Question 10

what happens if you never masturbated?

Nothing important: Neither partner or self sex is required for a healthy life. Your body is capable of adapting to whatever lifestyle you pursue.
