masturbation as it gone to far


Masturbation

Personally I was a little uncomfortable sitting in the lecture listening to people sharing their views on the topic. Ten years or so prior to now if, i was ask to share my views or to discuss this topic it would have been like someone confessing to a murder. I consider this as a private matter, However it quiet interesting to sit and listen to the different views and myths that people have about masturbation. These are some of the myths. ‘ masturbation lies at the heart of cultural humanity, the world was created by masturbation. If masturbation is the heart of cultural humanity it means that our identity as people or individual is shape by our sexual tendency of masturbation. My main concern is why is it society seen the act of masturbation for men as a highly physical encounter, this encounter is played out in some aggressive descriptive expression , such strangle the chicken , flogging the bishop, spanking the pony. While on the other hand the female act of masturbation is seen as soft ,slow and candle light.
Research has shown that boys were thought to be hard and tough because that’s how boys should be and if they are soft and gently they are seen as sissies. Girls were thought to be soft, gentle and sensitive. We have seen where sometimes these matro behaviour from men contribute to domestic violence. These values and attitudes which are thought to kids are highly influence by society. These values and attitudes that are instilled in our children are not necessary wrong but there needs to abalance govern how we raise the men and woman of tomarrow. www.selfhelpmagazine.com/articles/child_behavior/changeboys.html - 19k -
