Is masturbation addictive?

I must admit I've not really had a serious g/f relationship and I've got my sexual relief by masturbating at least once a day. My concern is, is this addictive? Its beginning to feel as if it is.

    do u mean as in animal whale? or as in fat men - whale? because a fat male could have the need for masturbation due to a lack in the opposite sex security (no girlfriends). im not judging, just asking a legitimate question!

    Masturbation is perfectly healthy. The only time you should be worried is if you're doing it as an escape to problems, or doing it often every single day.

    Yes, of course, just because you've got a beer belly there's no way you can get a girlfriend :rolleyes:

    Anyway people who get called fat are generally not fat. They're stocky. There is a fundamental difference. Not attacking you in any way, I just can't understand why men have to be slim these days?

    Wanking once or twice a day when you don't have a g/f is healthy - it'd be highly bizarre if you didn't.

    Try going about a week without a shag or a chug and you'll be fucking mental.

    Addictive? No.

    A habit. Yes.

    But as a previous poster stated, unless it becomes obsessive and is used to mask emotional issues elswhere in your life, it is harmless.

    Doesn't constant tugging cause problems though? Like both performance wise and mentally?

    As others have said - it can be. Have a look at this askTheSite answer about unmanageable masturbation.

    Not necessarily tbh.

    Some people just don't like to or don't want to.

    This is true.

    Topic? As people have said already, I don't think you can be a "masturbation addict"... though you may well be a habitual wanker ;)

    i didnt work out how to do it till i was about 17. I know plenty of girls who never do it, and some guys rarely do it, although probably not never,
