I've never masturbated. Not once in my life.

Worst page topper ever.

I'm jealous of anyone who can manage to do this on their own, but I agree with those of you who said it's rude to push the idea onto others.

Then again, kinda wish a certain someone would do this, so...

@Kay: not trying to be too personal, but is there a reason for that?

[down]I tried it once...it got me highly irregular and I swore I'd never do it again.

Abstinence... not my cup of tea, but if it works for you, hey, great. Of course, I'd personally advise people to try it at least once, before deciding whether they want to do it or not, but it's really up to them.

Yeesh, this is an ugly thread if I've ever seen one.

Can we not just agree that different people approach sexuality differently and leave it at that? :|

Last page, Drunkle.

It has mellowed out but I still feel compelled to comment because jeez people, it's just sex.

Maybe it's just me then.

Anyway, on topic. I myself am not abstinent and have had sex twice (an anime fan having sex? Shocking, I know) with two different girls. That said, I can understand not wanting to have sex as my first time was....well. It went poorly.

No particular reason... it did cross my mind sometimes, but I just didn't do it...

@kay: huh. Sorry, I just never considered the idea that someone would choose not to do so "just because". Fascinating.

I went to a Woman's class that gave a textbook with an entire section of women's sex and stuff.

It was interesting, if a bit of an awkward read.

But in my opinion, while I think people should hold off on relationships for a while (serious ones, I mean), solo-sex escapades is not really something age defined, and abstinence itself depends on when the person matures romantically (be it ready for a relationship, or realizing they have no desire for one, or whatever).

But that's just me.

[up]I am the same way. Slightly different, but same basics.

Again, huh. I can't imagine not eventually getting curious. Of course, I was a late bloomer in this department as well so -shrug-

Well, I've tried it before, I'm just too lazy. I could go into more detail, but that seems off topic and inappropriate.

...oh wow, I'd completely forgotten I made this thread. Having read through much of it, I'm kinda wishing I didn't. Also, merry Christmas!!

I tried abstinence and failed.

There needs to be a t-shirt for that, I think.

On masturbation, I don't do it, or, rather, I can't under most circumstances; the lack of human interaction is a boner-killer.

Abstinence is okay, if you can do it. If it's your thing, do it, but if it's not, then just use protection.

(I'm currently practicing abstinence because right now, sex doesn't really sound all that fun to me, and I don't really have time for it, anyway.)

I just don't like it when people who do practice abstinence lord it over people. Like if they act like they're better than everyone because they're not having sex. It sort of gives the rest of us a bad name.

But I will look up smut fanfiction because it's funny. Also, I like to watch the discovery channel videos of elephants mating because of the facial expressions they make.

Don't have time?

I assume you mean for navigating the social minefield that leads up to sex, not sex itself, in which case, your local prostitute can fix that.

No, I mean, don't have time for the actual act (even though it would probably take ten minutes or less). Maybe I just don't find it fun enough to be worth the time, I guess.

I'm hoping to get laid on New Year's Eve if my cousin and I go out to a bar/go to a New Years party.

Cause I'm gonna wear my suit. And if a snazzy suit can't get me laid, I dunno what will. tongue

Then again if it doesn't happen, no big deal.
