It’s not uncommon for guys to bang themselves from time to time. Yes, I’m referring to the typical act of masturbating. However, every single guy has likely felt that little hint of shame after he masturbates. The shame could come from the stigma that many attach to it or it may come from your arousal trigger of choice or the lengths you went through to find it. Well, I’m here to tell you that it’s nothing to be ashamed of. It’s a natural function for our bodies to need the release and, what you may not know is, that is actually good for you. Sure, it’s not as good for you as finding someone local to bang, but it’s definitely healthy. Here’s everything you need to know about the act.
Reasons Why Masturbation Is Healthy AF (Pun Intended)
It was once believed, by many, that masturbation caused anything from negative effects on your fertility to making you go blind. If that were true, I would have been one seriously blind teenager! In reality, there are more benefits than there are disadvantages.
Excessive masturbation has been known to cause a lower sperm count, but what you may not know is, it does not reduce the number of sperm that is retained by a woman during sex. This means that there may be slightly less sperm coming through, but the ones that do are just as effective as a load with a higher sperm count.
Relieving yourself sexually is an effective stress reducer too. This most definitely can help you get a full night of more restful sleep because of the chemicals that it releases in the brain. When pleasure centers are affected, things that stressed you out before don’t seem to be quite as important. This can positively affect your health and your overall sense of well-being.
Another way that masturbation positively affects your health is by increasing the number of white blood cells in your body which strengthens your immune system. It releases other chemicals that positively affects your immune system as well. That means that, if you masturbate regularly, you are just a little less likely to get sick.
If all that wasn’t enough to encourage you to jerk off, masturbation can also help you become a better lover. The weakening of pelvic muscles often causes sexual dysfunction as you age and causes your performance to be negatively affected. Occasional sex is not enough to keep these muscles strong, but frequent masturbation keeps them going well into your old age. This is another reason why it’s important to casually date people if you’re not in a sexually active relationship.
The message here is simple: If you feel the urge to release sexual energy and there’s no one around, then don’t hesitate to handle it yourself. You’ll be a better and healthier lover for it. One thing you should keep in mind is that you should masturbate often, but don’t do it the same way every time. Alternate the types of arousal triggers you use and the way you do it. If you do it the same every time, you are basically training your mind to respond sexually to only your preferred arousal trigger. So, jerking off might be more like sex than you realized. You can jerk off until your heart’s content, you just can’t let things get stale.
Jerking off can help improve your sex life. Trust me, I’ve been doing this for years and I’m 100% fine. In fact, if I didn’t bang myself as much as I do, then I don’t think I’d be as healthy and happy as I am.
