In the cultural history of sexuality, there has never been an aspect that has taken a more tortuous path than masturbation, and never has it caused more unease in people and society than masturbation. Masturbation, as a universal act of sexuality and prevalent in human society, is still commonly misunderstood throughout human society to this day. Due to religious and cultural differences, masturbation was generally opposed and forbidden, and it was only with the advent of the Kinsey Report on Sexuality that people gradually began to understand masturbation. A large number of sexology reports show that more than 90% of adult males experience and masturbate regularly, and the percentage of females who masturbate is also not small. Although knowledge about sex is now widespread, masturbation is still a controversial sexual behavior in China, and thus many people have misconceptions about it. However, research results suggest that masturbation has no significant adverse effects on the body, but the most significant effect is the anxiety and tension caused by the misconception of masturbation, which can lead to a series of psychological problems. The following article will explain some of the common misconceptions about masturbation, hoping that people will be able to face the issue of masturbation. Myth #1: Masturbation affects penis development A survey of male sexology-related issues found that men are generally less satisfied with the size of their penis and always want to be bigger. Some people who subjectively believe that their penis development is small, always associate the experience of masturbation with it, mistakenly believing that the “vice” of masturbation has affected the development of the penis. But what determines the development of the penis is the androgen secreted by the male testicles, and generally as long as the testicles develop normally, the development of the penis will not appear abnormal. The actual fact is that there is no relationship with masturbation. The second misconception is that masturbation can lead to impotence and premature ejaculation. Men are gradually concerned about their sexual well-being from puberty, like whether their penis is developing normally, how their sexual function will be in the future and so on. The male adolescence is the best period of sexual desire and sexual function, but this stage is still mainly in the stage of learning and so on, there is no good way to solve the sexual needs, and masturbation becomes the best way. The results of the study suggest that masturbation during this period is necessary for men and is also beneficial for the body and mind. However, due to misconceptions about it, masturbation is spent in guilt and self-doubt due to both the need to relieve sexual needs and the fear that the act of masturbation will affect future sexual well-being. Research results clearly indicate that the act of masturbation does not lead to impotence and premature ejaculation, and some sexologists even suggest the idea that men who masturbate do not get impotence. The only thing that can lead to impotence and premature ejaculation is the misconception of masturbation, which in turn leads to excessive emotional anxiety and tension. The fact that you have to masturbate a lot to get rid of semen and not be able to replenish it effectively can lead to infertility. In fact, male sperm is produced by the testicles and then stored in the epididymis. Although the process of generating a sperm takes about 74 days, a large number of sperm are produced every day, and a single discharge of sperm by a male usually contains tens or even hundreds of millions of sperm, and there will still be sperm even if a male has continuous sperm discharge in a day. So, don’t worry about masturbation will lead to no sperm. The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and most popular items. This is because, when a man has sexual stimulation, the male pelvic genital area becomes engorged with blood. If there is effective sperm discharge (sex or masturbation), the engorgement will subside within 15 minutes, but if there is no sperm discharge, the engorgement will take about 12 hours, to subside. This can lead to slowed blood circulation in the pelvic area and painful and other manifestations of prostatitis in the long term. Therefore, for patients with prostatitis, it is generally recommended to have a regular sex life rather than abstain from sex. Myth 5: Masturbation can lead to kidney deficiency China is no stranger to kidney deficiency due to the presence of traditional medicine Chinese medicine, and because “kidney” is closely related to male reproductive and sexual function, Chinese men are generally worried about their kidney deficiency, and thus the phenomenon of Chinese men using and abusing kidney supplement Chinese medicine indiscriminately is very common. The misconceptions about masturbation, on the other hand, are most worried that masturbation will lead to kidney deficiency, which in turn will affect their sexual well-being. In fact, moderate masturbation is not only harmless but beneficial to the body and does not lead to kidney deficiency. And in fact, it is very rare to see people who really masturbate excessively, most of them are wrong subjective feelings. Just like eating, no one is stupid enough to hold themselves up.
