Masturbation

I saw this funny pic online and knew I had to write about how religions, most of them anyway, are dead set against masturbation. The sad thing is, obviously the church that had that sign up was serious about its message that’s on it.

Most religions are still against sex outside of marriage, even when only with yourself. Even though no one is harmed, it is totally devoid of risks of disease, and even though medical Dr.’s recommend masturbation for sexual and physical health.

Men should have a minimum of 21 ejaculations a month for optimum prostate health. Keeps the pipes clean as it were. But the God fearing among us I guess would rather a man go to the grave with cancer, yet a pure heart that kept his body chaste. That is the way the to go according to them. Screw your health, be a good little follower instead. To think ones are against something as natural as sleeping and eating is incredulous in my eyes.

I cannot wrap my mind around such thinking in today’s world. When you think only 100 years ago, small children were being put to bed with their hands bound and wearing chastity devices to avert the evils of masturbation, it’s mind-boggling to be sure.

I can tell you this much, the day I’d be following the teachings of some old pedophile in a bed sheet and a pointy hat, there would be 20 moons in the sky. But this blog is about sex, not religion, so I’ll try and contain myself.
