At this point in my life I'm having all kinds of sexual problems. I'm not sexual active, but I do try to please myself by masturbation to cut down on the lustfulness,..aka teenage hormones. I've done this since I hit Puberty and I'm almost an adult, and not once sinec then have I not felt "guilty" after partcipating in my "self" pleasure.
I feel very sad, very bad about myself after I reach orgasm during masturbation and feel as if I sinned..not to religon but to my self morals. One thing my T and I are disucssing is sexual preference which is women as far as I can see..being in a relationship with and being sexual active with,..but some things of men...do attract me. This was a hard post for me becauise I 'm not used to talkling about sexual issues openly....sry if I was to blunt... Dustin |

I agree. I'm way into adulthood and I do the masturbation thang.
I hope you get some clarity....but remember....you're young. They don't call it teenaged angst for nothin. You're in a confusing time in your life Moonkin....we all went through it. It does get better.... __________________ |

Glad you felt comfortable enough to post. You are SOOOO normal! Everyone has gone through this.
Just remember that guilt and shame bring one thing - more guilt and shame. It's not worth it. If you are not hurting anyone (which your not) then there is no reason to feel guilty. The human body was created to be sexual so how can that be wrong? Tranq __________________

Hey,
I'd encourage you to be proud of pleasuring yourself and exploring your sexuality. Masturbating is a really healthy and safe activity. When it comes to sexual preferences, people are all over the place. Know the kinsey scale? If you're attracted to a certain person, don't be afraid to express that. |

I agree with pretty much everything everyone's said. I masturbate, too!
However, I understand about the guilty feelings...when I was religious, I used to feel guilty sometimes. I also had a period when I would masturbate, and for reasons I couldn't explain, feel depressed and horrible afterwards. I told someone this, and the person got mad at me, claiming I was making it up (I guess for attention), because you can't feel bad after having an orgasm. Some people are STUPID!!! Your sexual preference isn't something you can control, nor should you. Who cares if you like the opposite sex, same sex or both? Yeah, I know there are busybodies who want to control everyone else's sex lives, but they're idiots. __________________ Maven If I had a dollar for every time I got distracted, I wish I had some ice cream.
