Make masturbation mainstream

Hello all :wave:
Our very own TheSite intern has just written a rant about how we should all talk about masturbation more. We all do it, so why don't we chat about it?
Have a read and let us know your thoughts.

Who really continued the pretence they didn't wank beyond the age of about fifteen? Does anyone still bother?
Like Kenny said there should be more talk in sex ed classes about masturbation, I dont think i've ever witnessed it come up and it would be useful to reinforce the positive attitude towards masturbation for the youngens going through puberty. Maybe something will be done about it in the future? :chin:
Brilliant! Lol.
Pretty much.
Most of that rant is anecdote stretched into statement of fact - "But most of us will never admit (wanking) to anyone" or "Like most parents, mine were puritanical fascists", are just wrong.
I had a very Catholic education and still managed to learn about the joys of self abuse. Obviously I apologised to a picture of the Pope and said three Hail Marys post tug though
If everyone enjoys the occasional ham shank as the rant purports, then it's already the very definition of mainstream.
I don't talk about masturbating for the same reason I don't talk about shitting. No-one wants that image in their head.
You get toilet trained though, and everybody knows everybody poops, with the possible exception of her majesty.
Where's the conversation about masturbation? I do it, but I've only been doing it for a year, and I feel dirty and grubby afterwards. I don't feel that way about taking a shit.
Could you clarify "dirty and grubby"? Dirty as in you've performed a sinful act and are ashamed of yourself? Or just that you got human mess everywhere?
Unless you're talking about the Gloom. Then I'm afraid you just have to get used to that.
As it happens, I've just done a massive poo, at work no less. I've just been paid a few quid to crap at work. I feel nice, lighter, it's a good thing and a comfortable poo, I'm not going to tell everyone in the office I've done one, but I did read that 1/4 of guys wank off at work and that's gross (for some reason), but the fact that we all crap at work is not.
Lol, that reminds me of the episode of Peep Show where Jeremy has a wank, but all he's got is a £20 note, so he has to use the picture of the queen.
The other option is the combination of the two, with comics. When I went to Japan, I went to the geek capital of the world and visited a load of comic book stores. They all had a well-stocked porn section, and it was amazing to see how open everyone was about flicking through cartoon porn. Which is a strange paradox, because from everything I've heard, the idea of two Japanese people talking openly about masturbation is even less likely that two Brits. I hear they do ones specifically aimed at women too (in particular I read a story about how comics featuring two gay male characters are very popular with Japanese women).
I'm usually hunched double going at it frenetically with tears streaming down my face only stopping briefly to choke out the words "begone, vile testosterone" through my sobs.
Reminds me of this:
from 1:20.
From what I hear, there are plenty of very capable candidates! :thumb:

Women are definitely a bit more shy about it, though I know some ladies who are quite open about having a dildo.
