Masturbation portrayed as being bad for you, possibly making you go blind,[[note]]There is some ''slight'' truth to this, as both ocular humor and ejaculate contain zinc, thus chronic masturbation could, in extreme cases, lead to a zinc deficiency that could harm the eyes. Nobody's known to have actually gone blind from it, though. Alternative "scientific" explanation: Semen contains an enzyme called hyaluronidase, and certain cells in the eye contain hyaluronic acid, the chemical hyaluronidase catalyses. Sounds unhealthy when colliding. That, and you know, the possibility of accidentally [[{{Squick}} squirting jizz into your eye]].[[/note]] go deaf, or grow hair on your palms.
