Does Masturbation Go On Forever?

[geniusrocksoutloud]

Hi, just a quick question, does masturbation go on forever?Or is it something you grow out of during puberty?

[Patchy]

Some people do, because during puberty the "urges" are stronger. but its healthy and alot of adults do, do it.

Some adults do it, some don't. Depends on the person and their sex drive.

[Atonement]

It is porbably a lot more common for people during puberty because not as many have sex regularly and use it to let of "steam". But as people get older and more sexually active, they don't masturbate as much because they get the real thing more often. But still, a lot of older people masturbate too.

From what Ive gathered, you don't 'grow out' of it! Everyone still does it, regardless of age! Perhaps you would slow down a little because of a lower sex drive, but as far as I can tell people dont stop as they get older

Like they've said; I would just think that masturbation happens MORE at our age because of our stamina at this age... and our horniness! :D

But they did a poll on jackinworld.com I remember reading... people as old as 70-75 years old said that ALTHOUGH they didn't masturbate nearly as much as when they were teenagers... they STILL did it on occaision.

ok, so basically you can masturbate also when your an adult, but most people masturbate when they're a teen.

[Bobby]

Exactly. It just depends on the person.

i think the urges to masturbate would ease after puberty when all these raging hormones settle down. i would suspect a lot of adults do it, but probably much less frequently then us teens with the raging hormones.

[geniusrocksoutloud]

so its basically about the hormones in our sex drive, while im a teen, and less often when i become an adult as i dont have raging hormones or a sex drive that big(well some other adults might!)---(Meaning that there more calm?)


OK, i think i know what it is now, thanks for your help!

If you have an active sex life then that's going to replace masturbation, but if you don't, then you'd carry on.

[The Entertainer]

agreed. Once you experience the real thing, I guess that masturbation must feel comparatively mild.
