A paper on masturbation in the Chinese Journal of Male Sciences used an anonymous online survey.
Of the 7,077 people surveyed, 86.31 percent were under 35 years of age and about 25 percent were women. The results showed that:
3.62% had never masturbated before.
20.42% were less than once a month.
More than once a month accounted for 58.75%
12.37% were once a day
More than once a day accounted for 4.87%
[Come by yourself] is a physical necessity, but psychologically, many people cannot accept it calmly. Look at another survey:
60.09% of women and 46.79% of men think this is uncivilized behavior.
These two groups of figures are compared together, which makes Ding Dang feel quite helpless.
Masturbation is actually a way to release instinctive sexual desire. We can get euphoria and release pressure through masturbation.
Ding Dang consulted Dr. Ma Chong. Let’s listen to what the doctor thinks of masturbation.
Is masturbation [immoral] [inappropriate]?
The moral problem of masturbation is quite complicated. Its formation has cultural, religious and educational reasons.
Western Catholicism forbids contraception and masturbation because the church believes that all sex that does not aim at reproduction should be restrained. Sex that is divorced from reproduction and for self-pleasure is evil.
In Chinese traditional culture, masturbation is not a crime, but it is also shameful and shameful.
Under such psychological and social pressure, masturbation people are prone to guilt, disgust and other emotions.
However, with the development of society and the renewal of ideas, the strong condemnation of masturbation is gradually transitioning to the view that masturbation is a normal personal behavior.
Acquiring sexual pleasure is a normal physiological need, just like eating and sleeping. Feeling masturbation [immoral] [shouldn’t] is unnecessary, and there is no need for psychological pressure when masturbating.
We can think about this problem seriously and learn to live in harmony with our bodies.
Masturbation is good for health
From the medical theory or experimental evidence, there is no basis that moderate masturbation can cause [apathy of sexual desire, impotence, premature ejaculation, waist soreness, dizziness, tinnitus, prostatitis].
Most of these statements may be caused by shame or by elders who are afraid of their children’s indulgence.
1. For men
Masturbation helps to reduce the sensitivity of the penis surface, especially the glans penis. Lower sensitivity means that it can last longer in sex.
In the classic urological guidelines, masturbation is one way to treat premature ejaculation. Before sharing a room, self-healing once and lowering the sensitivity will make the second erection of men more lasting. Of course, this is only recommended to people with premature ejaculation symptoms.
2. For women
When women masturbate, as long as they pay attention to hygiene and thoroughly clean their hands and appliances, they can avoid vaginitis and urinary tract infection that many people worry about.
As for masturbation during menstruation, most doctors do not object or encourage it. As long as you pay attention to hygiene, it will not increase the risk of infection. However, after all, it is a little troublesome to clean up.
Every vigorous masturbation is a comprehensive review of sexual function and a way to explore our own body, so that we can further understand our own body and sexual needs.
How is moderate?
In the description of “come by yourself”, the word “moderate” will be added in front of it. Is the specific quantitative of this [moderate] how?
No one knows the answer.
Just like some people run 5 kilometers every day and train with great strength and weight, they don’t feel tired, but some people gasp when they go to the second floor.
[Moderation] Just like the shoe size, only you know it.
We can continue to explore in practice and sum up a set of effective and suitable plans.
As long as it does not affect the next sexual arousal, it is OK not to cause serious discomfort to penis, scrotum, urethra and vagina.
In addition, there is an online saying:
Women’s sexual life or masturbation too much will lead to external pigmentation and blackening.
In fact, the deposition of female vulvar pigment is related to estrogen and heredity, and has no inevitable connection with friction frequency.
We must have our own scientific judgment on some rumors on the Internet and among the people.
Do you need to [abstain from sex]?
Yes.
Abstinence should be carried out for at least 1-2 days before semen routine and prostate specific antigen examination.
When the reproductive system is uncomfortable, such as infection and inflammation, diagnosis and treatment should be carried out first, and doctors should be asked if abstinence is needed.
During this period, please be calm first.
Safety is the most important thing.
There is nothing wrong with masturbating, but don’t choose masturbating methods that don’t take the usual route.
Normal masturbation is OK, you can lie down, stand, squat, sit, watch small movies, and imagine, as long as you don’t add difficult movements and don’t need props that are easy to cause damage.
Pleasure is important, safety is more important.
Attention should also be paid to privacy. It will always be embarrassing to be seen by parents and roommates.
To sum up, doctors’ view on masturbation is: don’t feel heavy guilt. On the premise of comfort and safety, you may as well take the initiative to explore and let yourself know more about and love your body.
