Sexual Desires: The Poison and Energy Drink of Great Relationships.

After typing the word prayer, I came across a page with the title “Incredible Power of Prayer.”  I scrolled down and skimmed the table of contents. Chapter 16 and 17 of the book are on sexual desire and masturbation. Considering that this is a religious website, I am surprised to find various articles on these two topics. So instead of writing about Prayer and how it can change your life for the better, I have decided to write an article on sexual desire. I am sure that most of our Triond readers would prefer to read and comment about sex. So let’s get started on a topic that society is still very secretive about. And that is masturbation. Why is masturbation so popular among the young and older singles. 

First, it provides a great deal of sexual pleasure for both men and women. For many people who are not in a relationship nor married, this “coping tool,” is often used as a stress reliever. For those who are sexually frustrated or suffering from depression, masturbation is an escape from their current situation and can provide them with a satisfying emotional release.

The issue is whether masturbation is a sin or not. Although many teenagers and adolescents have experimented with it at some point or another, we can’t say it is or it isn’t a sin because the Bible doesn’t specifically talk about masturbation according to studies. While masturbation is considered pretty much normal in today’s society, people don’t really talk about it too much. Yet, despite its benefits and acceptance, some teenagers and adolescents struggle with feelings of guilt and frustration. Depending on your morals and values, some people might not feel comfortable engaging in this type of behavior. But then again, nobody has to know about it. What you do in the privacy of your bedroom is nobody’s business.

According to studies, masturbation is highly addictive. About 70% of married people masturbate on a regular basis. Are their needs not being met or have they have just simply become addicted and can’t stop?  Perhaps we should ask some of our sex experts of the Triond community what they think about this. I do welcome your comments.

    I don’t think it is addictive at all, it just meets a need.

    Well as quiet as it’s kept, the art of masturbation will be around forever..I personally think it has it’s ups and downs. The upside is you learn what makes you tick, and you can share that with your chosen partner if they can’t find the right connection if you know what I mean. The downside is if you do it frequently and just be enjoying yourself crazy, and exploding all over the place…then when you have a partner that can’t take you into orbit such as yourself then the relationship starts to suffer, and after awhile your hands and your toys become your best friend because they know exactly what you need….So as far as masturbation goes. PLEASE do it in moderation….LMAO…Uhmmm I guess I need to go and touch myself..LMAO!!!

    A “powerful prayer” on a universal subject. I think you have done a masterful job in tackling a rather sensitive issue in a very tactful manner. Well done. Let the sunshine!!!

    In my opinion, masturbation is a good thing to relieve stress and relax yourself but if you are addictive to it then it will definitely will effect your physical health and mind.

    Hey well done on this article!

    I don’t think it should take top priority if you are married to do it alone but in this instance mutual masturbation is very rewarding and very pleasing to watch, especially if you are both to tired to take part in sex olympics!

    But if you are single its a must for health I should think, so you carry on sweetness, we will all be thinking about ya! LOL

    In American society I think it is demeaning to discuss it in public. I think it could be demeaning to one’s self to practice
    it when there are so many beautiful people to consider for single folks. Perhaps it would be better to spend the time
    building new relationships.

    I think most all people have on occasion did it but I wonder if
    doing it” is telling ourselfves we need to be more resourceful
    in finding healthy partners.

    Masturbation is important for maintaining a balance in sexual desire and releaving the effects of our physical need to repress guilt of things we do not fully understand..Addiction to masturbation is the inability to function as a sexual being in a healthy way toward another..Serious guilt issues and afraid to let anyone in for fear of being judged…Perversion is the long term effects as the mind needs new ideas to maintain a constant sexual remembered peak of pleasure..A healthy sexual relationship is best for overall balance of the mind and body..Finding that balance is extreamly difficult as people do not realise how important a relationship really is to the health of a human being..

    Perverse thoughts
    We by now must know and are aware
    That if boys, men do not masturbate
    Then the semen being constantly produced
    In the testes needs to be evacuated
    Manually, sexually, mutually or else
    The night fall known as nocturnal emission
    Is bound to take place
    As its natural course

    I having answered hundreds of questions on the Yahoo as Qs and Answers
    I feel Yahoo has two sets of folks,
    Religious yes, but ancient minded
    And of course ultramodern too

    We must understand that masturbation
    Is no evil, it is a necessity
    For both sexes and more
    I will write in a detailed manner
    For general awareness
    Hope you will take it
    In the right perspective

    Many folks have requested it from me
    No, sex is not an addiction
    It is a basic urge
    A necessity
    Even animals practice it.
