masturbation, okay or not? (kinda urgent)

Unread post by fullmetal_freak »

Hello, I am a 13 year old boy and I have a couple questions on masturbation. Is masturbation okay at my age? I always hear people in school talking about how they, "bate". I also would like to know some good methods of masturbation and what works best for others. Is masturbation healthy?

Hi Fullmetal_Freak

Yep, masturbation is totally okay and healthy! As for the how of masturbating, that's really up to you and what feels good to your body. Just experimenting with different speeds and sensations can help you figure out what you like. I think you'd also find these two pieces helpful right now:

Thank you very much Sam, I feel better knowing this. This info was much needed as every time I find myself doing its like I am in the moment and then something clicks and I start to worry but now i know that there isn't anything to be afraid of. The articles were also helpful. :-)
