Put bluntly, how often do you masturbate? And I'm pretty sure this wasn't the original intent of this particular graphic's creator but here we go...:oldman:

Compared to the average, not very often.

Seriously, your comment and the tumbleweed signify that much. I spent like two minutes mulling over whether your use of the word "poll" was a pun. I guess it's not. Now I feel like a total sicko. Thanks for that. The reason I didn't insert - okay that's a pun - a poll is because I didn't want to make things too scientific: I was just shooting for - getting carried away now - a general discussion. Also, the range I gave as certain options might dissuade or dictate a certain response, and I wanted to steer clear of that. There was, lastly, this thought that males and females might predictably show disparate numbers and that the options, perhaps, would not subsume those differences. Well...maybe they wouldn't show different numbers: see! That's just the sort of thing I was hoping to inductively discover through an open discussion.

Yea, perhaps a scientific approach may not be best. I feel as though your avatar is too much of a confounder.

I don't remember seeing you post any information about yourself on the matter, snafupants. What happened with setting a "good" example for everyone to follow?

Anyway, I'll bite.

Male; 23

Rarely*. After finding someone to have it off with, it usually follows about 2-3 months where I don't particularly fancy it (sex, or any related activity like masturbation). If someone had showed me a picture of a naked female then, I would have looked at it more like a picture of a flower.
I think my sex drive has changed drastically the last year or two after I did some heavy (for me at least) experimentation in the area. It has sort of lost it's novelty for the time being (at least sex with women I don't really care about), and I am more looking to try out a relationship in favor of pursuing a female for the sake of sex only (I'm tired of it. And I'm tired of stupid women.).

When I had a high sex drive I would complain and wish I didn't. Now that I have a lower sex drive, I wish it was higher.

*For the last two years it has varied from 1 to 2 times every other week, or none at all. Before that, I was pretty normal in that area. The amount seems to increase, or decrease depending on how long it was before I last had sex and probably on my mood and overall outlook.

Any time I can lend a stimulating hand to lubricate discussion!

Well, it's definitely a truism that ninety nine percent of men flog the bishop, and close to one hundred percent of the other one percent is lying out of shame or religion or something else ridiculous.

A valid point was brought up by Kantor, and so I would put my frequency at between two to seven times per week. More than once a day is senselessly tiring for me; early mornings, moreover, are a terrible time to consummate the deed because I feel totally groggy and lackadaisical going forward.

That figure I gave assumes there is no other outlet, so to speak. In the solo arena, it's really just a biological imperative to shoot off every once in a while, and so it's basically just a way to feel less edgy and change your mood and, therefore, thoughts slightly. There might not even be lewd imagery involved.

Folks would have an easier and presumably more enjoyable time with this stuff if they disentangled sex and its derivatives from their own identity. You're going to be long gone in one hundred years, well hopefully, so who gives a rat's arse?

If, however, you assume this life is a limbo to another life and that we are judged based on our moral probity by an almighty deity, I can't help you one bit.

I've been experimenting with not fapping..

1st attempt 2 months and 1 week. Wanted to see what would happen if I fapped a few times, didn't give up. Noticed some sleep changes, mood changes.
2nd attempt currently, I'm at a month. I feel physically stronger, although that could be from building muscle too lol.

I've noticed changes, overall worth is still questionable. More time is needed to experiment.

Usually anywhere between 1-3 times a week.

I find it unsatisfying if I do it too often though. I really like it when it gets saved up for a long time because then it's really thrilling / magical. But I find this nearly impossible to do.

I've been experimenting with not fapping..

I notice my dreams become way more vivid (I always felt like sexual energy and dreaming energy were somehow linked. If I fap too much my dreams become very dull and detached emotionally), I have more of a vigor in life in general, and I'm more creative. Longest I've ever gone was 3 months. Fapping after that was nearly a religious experience.

Never been able to get close to that amount of time again though. Longest I've done in any recent stretch was about a month.

Your experience with abstinence, which mirrors my own, simply underlines the degree to which we are chemical beings, elegantly composed of cells. The trick is find out what underlies and informs this sexual energy (prana, jing, whatever) so that we can exploit it. Even Nietzsche thought that unused semen was/could be reconstituted by the body to nourish the brain; this process partly has something to do with cerebrospinal fluid maybe. Personally, if anything is going on, I feel it's probably attributable to these pivotal neurotransmitters like acetylcholine and prolactin and dopamine and minerals like zinc, which are affected by seminal emissions or abstinence.

I was just wondering that this morning!

I used to do it a lot, and I mean a lot, like 10-30+ times a week, which gave me superpowers in bed. Now I'm in the army, (although I'm finished in two and a half weeks) so I can only do it on the weekends, and I've pretty much lost most of my sexual drive. I masturbate for health reasons, and to keep my superpowers in shape, but It's more of a chore to me now. Still I try to do it about twice a day on weekends.

Ya that was really weird.

About twice a day on average. I don't usually on weekends due to lack of time.

Upwards of four times per day, if evenly divided among days! You do have superpowers. :eek:

Seven times in one night once (with a girl)

That would make me inexpressible sore; do you have the ability not to ejaculate right away. I mean, I could go for like an hour if necessary, but again the soreness issue. After a while the nerve receptors become less sensitive and numb and it's just like finish already. Wait, were there any substances involved in your seven times bout? That sounds like less than a barrel of monkeys actually...maybe I don't care about sex that much.

The first time, I finish embarrassingly fast, the second and third time I have perfect control, after that I need to work a little. It depends on how in shape I am though.
Also I don't need to wait in between, I can just cum and keep going. Lots of time's I've started having sex, finished in the first 20 seconds, kept going, and the girl was none the wiser.
When I need to last longer (when she's going down on me ,etc) I'll just do all kinds of multiplications in my head to distract me from it, or tap out a beat with my fingers. I use my massive Ti to substitute for all the other functions I lack in. :smoker:

As strong as my Ti is...I think it would have trouble taking control back in that situation...I'm screwed.

I'm still laughing.

Yeah, I use Ti as much as possible to keep me going. Multiple sessions are the best, as far as I'm concerned. I usually walk out of the room and light a smoke up after just to be a bit stereotypical. I don't even smoke. :smoker:

I average about once a day, taking long dry spells into consideration.
