A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

When I was a little younger (early/mid teens) I used to think masturbation was really dirty for girls and I swore never to do it.

Now I'm 18 and my views have changed quite a bit. I don't think it's dirty anymore but I only do it rarely and I was wondering if anyone else used to have drastically different views, because I feel I bit odd :/

Candycane1234 agony auntI have actually stopped once and thought eww what am I doing, I actually literally thought about it but no one has to know it's too much fun to stop and I've been doing it ever since.

Hugh.J agony auntIt used to be frowned upon for men/boys too, with awful warnings about going blind if you did it!

It was based on religious dogma for some reason that I don't know about - perhaps a killjoy thing to spoil one's pleasure?

All that has changed and it is generally regarded as a valuable and healthy release - a wank a day keeps stress at bay!

Stop worrying and enjoy yourself.....

Rose Emmy  agony auntMasturbation is normal.its that urge you feel that you want to make sexual pleasures all by yourself..Its rather safe than engaging in sex itself which has dire consequences.All you got to do is stop thinking about it coz it can be so addictive and when it gets in you, will be hard to stop. i think its normal so stay safe n choose how u want ur life...don't think about it and slowly by slowly you will forget about it.

Oh ya, definitely. I was sure it was a terrible sin, and knew I would go straight to hell. Didn't stop me, just made me feel guilty. I don't see it that way anymore -- just something that's necessary to get rid of the distraction of horniness.

Yes I have gone through the same thing, when I was younger, I absolutely thought masturbation was dirty for girls to do, and I was adament that I would never do it.

As I got older though my views changed and although it's not something I do on a regular basis, it is something that I do when I feel the need. You are not odd at all, I also felt odd that my views had changed, but life has a way of doing that. You are perfectly normal sweetie.
