[Adeptus Aspartem]

1. Are you male or female?
Male

2. How often do you do the deed?
Daily

3. Are you in a relationship?
Currently not.

4. If yes do you do it more or less? If no do you do it more than you usually would?
That never changed during my relationships. Maybe slightly less, but not really.

5. Do you believe it improves your performance in the bedroom or not?
Knowing your own body is definitly not a bad thing, no.

6. Focus; does reduced/stopped masturbation decrease or increase your ability to focus on things?
It's harder to fall asleep when im really horny But during the day? No.

7. Do you believe that is is harmful or healthy? I.E. Reduce chances of certain cancers, mental health, stress or makes you go blind and grow hair on the palms of your hands?
It's definitly not harmful, i dunno if it has any benefits besides being both a mental & physical goodie for yourself - which is also important i'd say.

8. Is it different now opposed to when you were younger?
Back then there was no mess at the end.

Captcha:
Meat with gravy

[VeryOddGamer]

1. Male.
2. A couple of times a day.
3. BWAHAHAHA no.
4. Don't know, never tried.
5. I have absolutely no idea. But if I had to guess, I'd say yes.
6. Not that I can notice.
7. I suppose it's mentally healthy, you know, satisfying urges and stuff.
8. Well, when I was younger, I didn't do it. Mainly because I didn't have to.

 

[StormShaun]

1. Male... because I like it.
2. 7 and... more... weekly. I'm healthy damn it!
3. ... No. T_T
4. N/A
5. Screw you... I'm lonely.
6. It makes me focus a lot more.
7. I think it is health for everyone.
8. ... No comment.

I think it is healthy for everyone to do it.
I have been single for a long time and I'm not sick of it. :/

Also lets ignore the fact that I voted for 7+ female...
I'm a male, I just... premature clicked... that was lame wasn't it. ;_;

I'm out... *Leaves*

 

[Rascarin]

1. Are you male or female?
Female

2. How often do you do the deed?
It varies wildly, but usually, once or twice a week.

3. Are you in a relationship?
Yes.

4. If yes do you do it more or less? If no do you do it more than you usually would?
Waaaay less than if I was single. Why do yourself what you can get someone else to do better?

5. Do you believe it improves your performance in the bedroom or not?
Performance, no, but with girls orgasm is something your body has to practice at doing, so it certainly makes sex more enjoyable for me.

6. Focus; does reduced/stopped masturbation decrease or increase your ability to focus on things?
Not that I've noticed.

7. Do you believe that is is harmful or healthy? I.E. Reduce chances of certain cancers, mental health, stress or makes you go blind and grow hair on the palms of your hands?
It's healthy. I went a long time being very repressed. Only discovered the act at around age 19-20, and I'm a lot better off mentally for blowing off the steam, as it were.

8. Is it different now opposed to when you were younger?
I didn't do it when I was younger, so... yes.

4.---
5.Might
6.Don't know

8.Yes (a lot more now)

Hope it helps for whatever reason you're asking creepy questions

 

[Brutal Peanut]

1. Female, 25
2. 0 to 1 times a week, depends.
3. Married
4. Less
5. I don't believe it does, for me anyway.
6. I think I get more done.
7. Healthy, from what I hear.
8. No

 

[knight steel]

About once a day if i get the chance on weekends maybe twice instead also this is relavant:

 

[IamLEAM1983]

1. Male
2. Daily
3. Nope
4. I don't think so. It's just turned into a good way to wind down after a hard day's word-crunching
5. Couldn't tell ya
6. I can go on a week without pulling the cork, so no. My current frequency is a conscious choice
7. I'm told it's actually healthy and normal
8. I think I used to have slightly tighter control, but that's it. *Slightly* tighter control. I really don't obsess over it

It just feels good, I guess. Like eating a good meal or enjoying an occasional glass of wine. I think any culture or upbringing that tries to stamp out self-discovery and self-exploration is more than a tad reductive.

 

[Vault101]

Ok sure why not.....even out the statistics a bit

1.female
2.daily (I'm actually curious if that's normal for females)
3.nope
4.if I were in a relationship I would do it less
5. Uhhhhh it portably wouldn't
6.no?
7. I don't think it's harmful and it ......feels good
8.technique changed

8.technique changed

It's amazing to see a female who admits doing it regularly... Every woman with whom I talk about this stuff says they rarely ever do it.
I've actually come to the point of feeling quite sad and uncomfortable with my girlfriend's disapproval towards masturbation.

 

[Silvanus]

1. Male.
2. About twice a week.
3. Nope.
4. When last I was in a relationship, I didn't do it much at all.
5. Doubt it makes much of a difference.
6. Betters my focus, I think.
7. Healthy, mostly mentally. Not in much doubt there.
8. Very. Had a lot of hang-ups about it when I was likkle, as I imagine a lot of people did.

 

[NoeL]

OH BOY! LET'S REPLY!!!

1. Male
2. Most days, sometimes more sometimes less
3. Not at the moment
4. When I'm in a relationship it depends how much my partner wants it. If I'm having sex as often as I'd masturbate then I don't need to masturbate, but otherwise I still do
5. Probably not, as the sensations are quite different
6. I'm too drunk to understand the question right now
7. It's physically healthy, though the porn addiction that often accompanies it can be mentally harmful
8. Not really, except for maybe the first couple of times when it still freaked me out

I wonder if they are lying or it's just not as common, aside from the general consensus that females don't have the same kind of sex drive there's also the cultural thing where that kind of.....fixation is considered expected for guys but not so much for girls

 

[synobal]

Idle hands are the devils tools!

 

[Hagi]

1. Male
2. Never
3. No
4. I wouldn't know
5. I wouldn't know
6. I wouldn't know
7. Most likely quite healthy. The universe will probably spite me with cancer just to be a dick, like "Hey, use it or lose it, buddy!". If I do die from prostate cancer I want my grave to read "Died from virginity".
8. No

Like... never never?

Or just tried it but didn't like it?

Just curious, you must've done it sometimes? Right?

 

[Raven_Operative]

1. Male
2. Never have, don't plan on it.
3. Noooope
5. If the subject were homosexual, it might improve handjob skills
6. N/A
7. Some say it releases pent up stress, but IMO, only being able to deal with that stress through sexual activities is unhealthy. Just doing it for recreation,... well, I see no harm in that.
8. No

Might have some slightly skewed results here. I'm asexual. No interest in sex / masturbation at all.

Would someone explain to me the appeal of it? Now I'm legitimately curious.

 

[Adam Jensen_v1legacy]

1. Male.
2. I don't actually know. Not often at all.
3. In a happy relationship.
4. Less, of course.
5. It's a good idea to beat off an hour before sex so you could last longer in bed.
6. I think I read somewhere that reducing masturbation helps with focus and attention span. But there are other factors that contribute more to that.
7. It's not unhealthy.
8. When I was 13 I could do it 5-7 times a day. Now I can't. And I'm glad I can't.

 

[jackpipsam]

1. Male.
2. At least once a day normally.
3. No.
4. I wouldn't have a clue.
5. I would need a test subject for that theory.
6. I think it helps me focus.
7. I think it is healthy, it makes me less stressed and I know that keeping the semen flow going is good for them. However I have a nasty case of getting more erections than I should, when I don't want them
8. I am a little more self-aware of it now than I was.

 

[I-Protest-I]

Average maybe 20 times a week I think? The friend with benefits thing only happens on a Sunday so I'm stuck by myself working nights alot.

Too much free time.

God I'm so fucking bored.

Okay, women MAY have a different kind of sex drive, but seriously, how can a person who bugs you for sex everyday have so much prejudice over one's decision to satisfy their sexual needs by themselves?

(I'm beginning to think I might need to see a shrink about this. Looks like she scarred me pretty bad)
