Sexuality has been a taboo subject for centuries and, unfortunately, today there are still embers of this fire, although we believe that we already have enough knowledge to challenge with evidence the basis of these sophysmas full of censorship, there is still some resistance. to tear down walls that we currently consider meaningless. It turns out that ending the lies that have survived for years and years and subjected to the ethics of a society, however wrong, is not easy.
The subject of masturbation lacks public symptomatology, as it is something that is usually done without witnesses, is always considered something totally intimate and not shared, many people still believe that this is a prohibited practice, mainly because it is intended for the exploration of individual pleasure and not directly to the satisfaction of the couple.
“I have a little task for you. Go home and touch yourself. Live a little. ” The black swan?”
There are currents of thought that even today hold that there are certain damages arising from masturbation, they are inaccurate claims, when in fact they do not lie, ranging from saying that masturbating leads to madness, to pointing out that it is a practice worthy of being practiced. selfish, lonely people.
According to the Hite report and other subsequent surveys, about 82% of men and 66. 6% of women intentionally masturbate. Intentionally? Because a group of people caress without this intention or have sexual fantasies while sleeping, even reaching orgasm; in any case, in the face of lack of information and myths, it is only left to oppose knowledge. statements about masturbation that have become obsolete.
False. The first auto erotic scans occur in childhood, very early, recognizing the body itself, the child explores his genitals and often stimulates and excites, of course, this type of practice is not conscious, because the little one has no sexual awareness.
Similarly, many young and elderly adults masturbate regularly. According to the “Sex behavior” survey, published by McCary in 1983, 59% of men and women over the age of 60 admit to masturbating relatively often.
This myth is also widespread. From this point of view, masturbation is just a substitute for sex for two, it’s not true. Self-erosion follows a different logic, because it is an individual practice that has much more to do with self-care than with the compensation of the lack of intimate relationships.
In fact, most married people masturbate. And masturbation has therapeutic use in cases of sexual dysfunction; it is used as a device to overcome locks that prevent them from having fun together.
This claim is also false. Although there is not much information on this subject, the Hite report, a true pioneer in the field, has revealed that masturbation is the most pleasurable sexual practice for women. According to data from this survey, women reach orgasm during masturbation 95% of cases. time and less time to achieve it.
Brecher’s book “The Sex Researchers” says men between the age of 35 and 60 masturbate 70 times a year on average. While most prefer sex together, they also say that they consider masturbation as an indispensable complement and that it leads to the same intense orgasms.
False In the world of humanity, it is impossible to adopt fixed rules. Much or little are relative terms, depending on the characteristics and circumstances of each person, a person who masturbates daily is not perverted or sick, nor is he on the verge of madness, the same goes for those who practice only occasionally, or never.
As always, if this is the case of behavior that impairs the normal development of activity or affects other aspects of life, there may be a problem, but as long as the practice is integrated with the rest of obligations and pleasures, there is no problem.
In fact, the opposite is true. People who live their sexuality freely are healthier physically and mentally, however, there are myths that masturbation leads to hair loss, acne, reduces fertility and can even lead to blindness.
This is all wrong. Masturbation is a normal and healthy act that does not cause physical harm. This practice invites self-knownness, strengthens the pelvic muscles and increases the intensity of libido. In the face of stress, relax. In the face of inhibition, it helps break down barriers.
