Over Masturbation – When does it really go beyond the Limit?

In recent times, both the social and the medical perspective on masturbation have undergone a radical change. What was considered until recently as a shameful and disgusting activity is now becoming largely acceptable in most mainstream social spheres, and in fact some experts are also attributing various benefits to this habit. The greatest pro for masturbation today is that it provides an excellent option for sexual release in people who do not have sexual partners, which is directly responsible for reducing certain forms of crime and even mental problems such as depression, frustration and agony.

Studies have shown that a very large number of men and women have masturbated at some points in their lives. The number is pegged at about 92% in men and 64% in women. But it must be remembered that people usually lie about indulging in such a personal activity. In a particular study, some women were initially asked to fill a form about their masturbation habits. After that, they were shown an elaborate video of a woman masturbating. Then they were asked similar questions again. It was found that after watching the video, more women admitted that they had indulged in masturbation.
This is direct evidence that people do not admit about their masturbation habits unless and until they are coaxed by being open about the subject.

Anyways, the topic of this article is to discuss at what stage masturbation becomes excessive. In popular opinion today, masturbation can never be excessive, because there are men and women who masturbate several times a week without developing any physiological defects. They do not show any decline in their reproductive capabilities either, a misconception that was strongly maintained for several years until recently. But, when there are no perceptible side-effects of over masturbation, there are definitely other problems to consider.

The main problems are of mental imbalances. Both men and women who masturbate too frequently will develop an addiction-like attraction for the habit. They will not be able to spend a single day without masturbation, and will probably want to have a go at it whenever they can afford. The result is that, the person is not able to focus on work, which naturally suffers. Over masturbation can also make a person sluggish in society, a slow learner and a person who is so wrapped up in his/her addiction for masturbation that he/she does not show any kind of progress.

A very shocking side-effect is that people who masturbate a lot develop such a strong affinity to the habit that they do not get the same kind of arousal through normal heterosexual intercourse. This, if anything, will affect the reproductive capability of a person.

Today's view on masturbation is too indulgent, and there is nothing like an excessive frequency for the act. But psychological problems cannot be ignored. For that reason alone, people must make efforts to curb masturbation. The following points indicate that masturbation is getting to be excessive:-

• The person starts looking for breaks to be alone so that he/she can masturbate.
• The person thinks too much about the activity, so much so that it hampers in his/her routine work.
• The person becomes averse to normal heterosexual sex.
