How to stop wanting to masturbate...
(Anonymous) 2015-07-24 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)Re: How to stop wanting to masturbate...
(Anonymous) 2015-07-24 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)I'm asexual, but I do masturbate, and lately it's really bothering me. I feel like if I'm not interested in having sex with anyone, I really shouldn't be masturbating, or if I'm going to masturbate I need to have sex with people. I'm not in a relationship so it's not like I have a partner that wants sex and I'm denying them or something but I still feel really guilty and like I have no "right" to masturbate if I'm not willing to have sex with people.
I know this is probably a weird problem to have, but I don't know how to fix it. How do I stop wanting to masturbate (or start wanting to have sex with people)?

(Anonymous) 2015-07-24 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)You totally have the "right" to masturbate. And masturbation and sex are two totally separate things. Yes, they both involve genitals and orgasms, but otherwise, they're not the same at all. Even for sexual people, masturbating and sex are very different experiences, and someone might prefer to masturbate one day but want to have sex the next. It's okay to like or want one but not the other.
Also, a lot of asexual people masturbate. You're completely normal.
I know it's easier said than done, but try to uncouple all of these things. There's no reason for you to feel guilty. There's nothing wrong with you or with what you're doing.

Re: How to stop wanting to masturbate...
(Anonymous) 2015-07-25 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)I've never had sex. I've masturbated ever since I can remember. And I'm not asexual. I've just never had the opportunity to have sex with another person (despite being bisexual and polyamorous attraction-wise).
Do I want to have sex? Someday. Do I have to have sex? No. But masturbation is a great way to relax, deal with stress, etc. So get it on with yourself as much as you want, OP. You don't need to feel attraction or a pull to have sex to enjoy the physical sensations that come with masturbation. :)

(Anonymous) 2015-07-25 02:51 am (UTC)(link)if you masturbate once in the morning and once at night like clockwork, it might alleviate the sexual tension that's causing you to feel this way? the only times I find myself getting turned on during inappropriate times is when I haven't had a wank in a while.
