guilt from masturbation?

Wow! I'm not one for confrontation but I have to say that that is really cruel, mean and judgemental. You must be very lucky to never have had to seek support with issues and since you seemingly have no experience in this area perhaps you opinions are best not voiced

There are many reasons why a person might feel guilt from masturbation and just because porn is readily available on the internet does not mean everyone has been exposed to it. Also porn does not = masturbation and it is quite possible for someone to have issues with one and not the other. You surely must appreciate that sex is a complex issue for some people. I would give you the benefit of the doubt that your glib comment was merely that, not thought through, but it comes across as judgemental and unpleasant and there's no place for that here especially as you still don't seem to see any wrong in what you said.

I think this post came from a place of naivety and maybe didn't mean to come across as so judgmental. Correct me if I am wrong though Paul... 

Glad to see the post did not put you off commenting mastershy. 

As you can see our community is that of a helpful nature and sometimes the typed word can be a little hard to get across empathy.

My deepest apologies if this comment made you feel a little down but do not let it put you off seeking advice and joining in <3

Nowt wrong there at all, Its a completely normal thing to do as far as im aware. Enjoy!

I only masturbate when my wife is away with her ladyfriends for a few days and yes I do feel guilty. I do tell her all about it. When she is not away I have no reason to masturbate, if I get horny she is always ready to take me there and then. I'm a very lucky man !!

I am also getting worried as I've started to masterbate every day non stop ,I seem to be horny all the time.

It`s a healthy form of pleasure and stress relief,plus if you`re a man it`s apparently good at preventing Prostate trouble to do it regularly.

Nothing wrong with masturbation, I love it and my control of it but I don't do it very often because my wife just likes using it and me for her own pleasure. When she is away for a few days then I go to town on the old fella - - big time.

I was raised in a conservative home where masturbation and sex were pretty taboo subjects. I dont know that I felt guilty when I finally started feeling comfortable enough with my own body to fully masturbate, but I did feel "naughty" like I was doing something dirty or something I should be be doing and so I struggled to achieve orgasm solo for a long time.

I have come to embrace my body and my sexuality as a gift and part of what makes me who I am. There is absolutely nothing wrong with masturbating and has others have pointed out it is a very healthy thing and has many benefits to us as people... sexual happiness is important.

I just want to encourage you to know it is normal and healthy to masturbate. Peace.

I do like the feel of masturbation especially from watching some sex scenes from hentai but the trouble is after I finished I feel like I done a bad thing and feel guilty and I know this may sound like something Ned Flanders(simpsons)would do but I pray before I go to sleep saying sorry for my actions and sometimes I feel like doing those twice a week is addicting can you guys help me feel better

If watching sex scenes from Hentai doesn't bothers you then Masturbation shouldn't troubles you either. Same that goes with fantasies and toys isn't it? I have no problem with guilt if it's done in the presence of hub, be it with fantasies and/or with LH toys together. There are many times either me and him wanted more, so we do it jointly or individually within our 4 walls. On the contrary, if it's a religion thing, forgives me and forgive my ignorance no one can provide you with a valid spiritual answer.

On occasion I feel slightly guilty about it and my toys but there are worse things in the world I could be doing... So I'm soon back doing it again :-) 😉 x

Good for you ,there R a lot of worse things you could be doing,

I discussed this with my husband and we both agree that when we were adolescents we were very guilt ridden when masturbating but as you get older you don't stop doing it, you just understand that it is an occasional need which is best satisfied. Religions have a lot to answer for in teaching neurosis and guilt as part of their doctrine!

I really enjoy it, but also feel guilty afterwards

Did you know that recent research collaborates regular male orgasm with reduced rate of prostate cancer?

There is also new research to suggest that regular vaginal stimulation improves general health and reduces risk of ovarian and cervical cancer?

For this reason, as a man, you need to cum as much as possible and also play with vaginas frequently, Firstly to maintain your own health and secondly to be selfless😉

As for toys, well, wouldn’t you wear glasses to improve your vision? Well bingo that’s just another sense isn’t it?

I have serious guilt from masturbating. When I first started my mum walked in and stopped me. Always worried I'd get caught, I thought it was an awful thing to do. In the past 2 years I got sex toys but even though I have loads of guilt I feel as if that'll go as I grow older. (I hope)

I used to think God was watching me and so were all my dead relatives. Adding to the guilt.

It also make me feel dirty.

I'm not sure if I've ever had an orgasm. It feels good when I play with myself but not sure if it's an orgasm. The way people describe it makes it sound grander than it is so I'm not sure I've had one. :/also, I'm a virgin
