Do you know yourself? Like, really know yourself? I am not talking about what you want to be when you grow up or what type of person people think you are. I am talking about your body. Do you know your body?
May is National Masturbation Month and all I can say to that is…AWESOME!
Masturbation has so much negativity around it. For young people, you may have heard that if you masturbate you will go blind, have hairy palms, or have acne….OH NO, NOT ACNE! Want me to tell you a secret? Masturbation causes none of that. Your palms won’t be hairy, you won’t go blind and your acne is caused by other things like eating greasy foods.
There have been horrible devices that were used to prevent teens from masturbating such as chastity belts, penis cages and even graham crackers were used to prevent masturbation. Yes, I said graham crackers, go ahead and look it up.
Masturbation is not a bad thing, according to Good Vibrations, masturbation is awesome…
- Because masturbation is immensely pleasurable, invigorating, rejuvenating and fun.
- Because sexual pleasure is each person’s birthright.
- Because masturbation is the ultimate safe sex.
- Because masturbation is a joyous expression of self-love.
- Because masturbation offers numerous health benefits including menstrual cramp relief, stress reduction, endorphin release, stronger pelvic muscles, reduction of prostate gland infection for men and resistance to yeast infections for women.
- Because masturbation is an excellent cardiovascular workout.
- Because each person is their own best lover.
- Because masturbation with a partner can be educational and hot.
- Because masturbation increases sexual awareness.
I had to underline and bold the third bullet because self-love will not give HIV or STDs to you. So if you looking for a way to be safe without having sex then go ahead and give yourself a hand (pun completed intended).
This is both street smart and inelntigelt.
