    I’m not married anymore, so masturbation (in my opinion) is a physical necessity. I treat it the same as brushing my teeth and other bodily necessities.

    More research needed regarding its effects on slowing down the aging process.
    Once everyday maybe too much activity although in my late teen years at least 4 times a day was satisfying. Then I discovered the body needed replenishment until once a week became the norm. It feels nice having a few days load.

I make it something very enjoyable and my "happy ending" is beyond belief. I also use Testosterone gel 1.62, 2 pumps after I shower each day. I often will skip a day or so but generally at least 3 times a week. I enjoy your videos. On occasion I have the good fortune to have a playmate and I always have a great time. I generally do something about 3 or 4 times weekly.

    While it is not dangerous on a physical level, masturbation is still best enjoyed responsibly keeping the natural side effects in mind - for example, for me it causes a phase of relaxation and sleepiness afterwards, so it can be detrimental when I need to be alert and active afterwards. There is also an element of mental hygene - e.g. the images and imaginations one nutures during masturbation can freely drift in all kinds of directions when they are discoupled from a partner like that, this can ultimately lead to a kind of social dysfunction if not minded out and kept in check. But you can also actively shape your life using masturbation fantasies as a technique. You should try it sometime.

    Re: Myth # 5 - In my late 20’s I was diagnosed with OCD. I was also sent to a therapist who was very sex negative. As someone who identified male at the time and was, well, in my late 20’s, I easily masturbated 5x a week. Not long sessions, just 7-15 minutes, then get on with my day. But my therapist insisted doing it more than monthly was a sign of sex addiction especially in someone with OCD and insisted I go to 12 step program for that. It really messed me up around sex and intimacy for a long time. There are some really sick therapists out there.

    I disagree with Myth 5. It's actually quite stupid thing to say that there is no such thing is too much masturbation.
    How about 100 times a day?
    Like every freaking hour. Is that still normal.
    No it's not.
    Human beings should have certain amount of impulse control, whether that's hunger or sexual or aggressive impulse.
    If you can't control impulses at all, that's also very problematic.
    I masturbate sometimes every other day, sometimes once a day, sometimes I skip few days. I try to postpone it.
    Delaying gratification is not a bad thing. It actually makes the whole act more fulfilling.
    At the same time, I consider nofap to be a waste of will power because you are focusing too much on not doing it. And will power/ conscious energy/ focus is a limited resource that should better be applied to other constructive activities.

    Sometimes a guy has just gotta “clean the pipes”. And at 68, I’m a pro at keeping my pipes clean!
