You were recommending he seek advice from a mechanical engineer. I was just expressing that there were people who were professionally knowledgeable in the topic of his concern. If he was having difficulty designing a water pump for his Chevy I wouldn't have felt the need to offer advice beyond your reccomendation

I'm not an MD, but unlike you I'm not terrified of their evil conspiracy so when I have a question about medicine I ask doctors questions. More than once I've consulted with an addiction specialist and a former Neurologist when looking for information for this forum. I also tend to read a good deal, mostly about medications but also studies on sexual health and the psychology of sex. When I state something in this forum I do so with the confidence that I'm stating medical fact.

I've suggested in multiple threads that if you want to make claims that masturbation is harmful you're welcome to have any of the fine doctors who support this forum back your claims. Feel free to request any of them comment on this thread RealityTimes09, or supply any other manner of proof you can.

I'm leaving it up to you wolf to bring the doctors in on this you feel free to do so cause I'm not obligated. I will however continue to offer my opinion and advice. The people that come here to this site will eventually find the truth for themselves. I just think its imperative that people look at both sides of the coin instead of taking things at face value. I don't see those neurologist or addiction specialist here on this site offering a logical explaination concerning the symptoms of those who come here for advice. If you have medical facts to state on this site wolf then share them.

You're amazingly obligated RealityTimes09. you're making claims that are ridicules and you've run in fear of any request that you provide support for them. Don't let the previous courtesy and kindness let you become deluded into thinking you made some kind of reasonable argument anywhere in your posts.

I strongly encourage you to share your opinion in any tread on this forum, but I would suggest you frame your opinion as an opinion rather than implying your information is factual unless you can prove it.

You know wolf if you want to argue they have chatrooms for that and if you don't mind I'd like to quit wasting webspace. No where did I say anything I said was a fact and never was meant to be interpreted as that remember science is an evolving field including medical and its always subject to change.

You know RealityTimes09 if you want to tell fairy tales there are blogs for that. If it's no bother I'd like you to stop giving people advice that's dangerous to their health. This thread is littered with statements by you that are in no fashion framed as opinion, much of it and your other posts are threaded with medical terminology intended to make your statements appear factual. I look forward to the day when science evolves to the point where you're no longer encouraging people to endanger their health. You'll me much less of an annoyance in my life. Sadly that day isn't on the horizon.

I was dating a 45 year old man who had ED problems--and said it was from years of over masturbating. I'm now dating a 34 year old who has the same issues!!!! He says he masturbates 3-8 times a day every day....and now has trouble keeping a rock hard erection.

I feel like I'm in ED hell!

Just one note to you all. Sexual performance is as much a spiritual thing as it is a physiological one. I see that some of you are pushing certain philosophies (Tao) and linking them to medical issues, i.e. erection and sexual function. I don't think that's accurate.

The guys that have started this topic obviously have psychological anxieties, rather than physical problems.

I myself have had periods when I felt depressed and down, and just could not perform sexually, even if I really wanted to. I find these phases to be normal. Sexual desire is the thing I find most important in erection, and other parts of sexual performance, i.e. length of intercourse, and overall level of satisfaction, not the actual physical properties of your organs, even though they of course matter.

What I'm trying to say is that you should relax, I don't think most of you are "over-masturbating", you just need to "chill" . Looking at it physically, there is not much difference between masturbation and actual intercourse. The difference if of course larger psychologically. You need to be psychologically confident in yourself and be aroused with the partner you are having sex with, and the satisfaction and performance will come on their own, unless of course there is an actual physical dysfunction, which is a much rarer case and may be treated.

For the majority of us, it is the libido that drives us, which is purely a spiritual thing.

I'll give you an example: one evening I did not feel like having sex with my girlfriend, I kind of felt I'm getting bored with having sex with her. Then I accidentally ran into a girl from the neighborhood I used to like a lot, we had a short chat and I thought "she still looks amazing, boy, would I like to have sex with her", or something like that .

Later, when my girlfriend came, I felt quite aroused and we had great, vigorous sex. Because my libido was awaken and I didn't feel like I was in a grunt. 'Physically' I was all right either way, it's the psyche that made all the difference. Had I not gotten aroused by that other girl, I'm sure I wouldn't have had sex that evening. Catch a drift?
