people have been demonizing it for most of the AD years i think but it’s quite pleasant really. are there any proven negative effects?
Orgasms are normal, healthy and necessary
Yes, yes, no.
While orgasms are normal and can potentially have some physical and mental benefits, there is no physical or mental necessity to have them (plenty of asexual and otherwise celibate people of all different kinds out there to prove it).
I don’t agree, in the experience of my friend circle, if you don’t release for a while:
- you start having wet dreams
- prostate harm - increased rates of prostate cancer in multiple studies - and my friend developed pelvic floor issues
- the “mental harm” is having to walk around horny all the time, constantly thinking of sex, and affecting your interactions
- even celibate people mostly masturbate, that’s not what it means. Including many confessions from priests
Well done, you’ve provided some anecdotal effects and benefits, which I didn’t deny exist.
However none of them demonstrate necessity.
Breathing, sleeping, drinking, eating, shitting - those are necessities.
Having orgasms is not, no matter how much you try to convince yourself and others.
Sure you don’t “have to” bathe but you’ll have a bad time if you don’t
the “mental harm” is having to walk around horny all the time, constantly thinking of sex, and affecting your interactions
this is not a problem which normal people face. if you are constantly thinking about sex, you may have an addiction or an otherwise unhealthy relationship with sex
Hey don’t shame ppl for normal variance in sex drive. Being horny is not a disease
