from GrodsCorp 

I’m not going to lie to you — I’ve always wondered about the etiquette and mechanics of whacking off in space. I mean, you’re on the International Space Station for a few months at a time with no social interaction (besides from workmates), so surely you’d get the urge to release a little pressure now and again. I’ve long been curious about whether you’d get the privacy and time to do it, and how the actual act would work. Don’t even mention clean up. (Unless, of course, you took your Fleshlight, although that might be vetoed by mission control due to weight.)

 from Erika Lust and the Barcelona Sex Project and thanks to Viviane’s Sex Carnival

Erika Lust’s latest film The Barcelona Sex Project is a documentary-style erotic movie that aims to enlighten as well as arouse. The film features three men and three women talking about their hobbies, their work, their passions and their sex lives, after which they masturbate on camera.

…How did you find your six subjects?
It was a casting amongst the most open and talkative performers and newcomers who live and work in Barcelona. We need people that was able to speak from their inside and perform a masturbation scene and do both things with passion.

Why did you decide to use both men and women?
Because I think that women want to see both how men and women masturbate. That we can find both men and women attractive, it’s all about the personality.

Did anyone have any difficulty coping with masturbating on camera?
It was a great shoot, but some of them told me that it was more difficult for them to masturbate in front of the camera than to perform sex with other person. Also because I wanted them to do it as themselves, not as “pornstars”, as true and real as possible, without thinking of the camera

RECHARGING? Some scientists wonder if the unconscious erections that occur when a man sleeps might be the bodyÂ?s way of making sure oxygen levels in penile tissue stay high. (istockphoto / August 15, 2008)

Urology clinics have a saying: “Erections make erections.”
In other words, sex is not unlike sports. If you want to be a good tennis player, play lots of tennis; if you want to be a good lover, make lots of love.
This maxim springs more from anecdotal observations than from scientific studies: Men who have erection problems tend not to have much sex, urologists noticed. And those who don’t, have plenty. Then again, anyone with a passing knowledge of the birds and the bees might have guessed as much.
So, which happens first in the use-it-or-lose-it Olympics? In sports as in sex, we like to do what we’re good at doing. Perhaps when some men find that their previous prowess — be it at backhands or erections — isn’t what it used to be, they start sitting out more and more games.

Use it or lose it: Yes, it’s true — South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com

Just to let you know I am evaluating alternatives for continuing the Masturbation Addiction Hotline. I won’t have a conference for a couple of weeks due to personal conflicts, but they will return eventually.

THE PEOPLE’S COMMON SENSE MEDICAL ADVISER (1895) is one of the interesting historical works on the dangers of masturbation. I recommend it to students of society’s views on the subject. This extract is from the Project Gutenberg library. You can get a good flavor for its perspective from this quote:

Untold miseries arise from the pollution of the body. Self-pollution, or onanism, is one of the most prolific sources of evil, since it leads both to the degradation of body and mind. It is practiced more or less by members of both sexes, and the habit once established, is overcome with the greatest difficulty. It is the source of numerous diseases which derange the functional activity of the organs involved, and eventually impair the constitution. This vicious habit is often practiced by those who are ignorant of its dangerous results. Statistics show that insanity is frequently caused by masturbation.

Fig. 2. A Testicle wasted by Masturbation. Masturbation not only occasions loss of semen, but frequently the testicles and other generative organs waste and become reduced in size as a result of the abuse. …Fig. 2 represents one much reduced, as a result of self-abuse. [pg 773]

 A female perspective on orgasm denial from Jessica’s ruined orgasms | tantalism.org

Bob, Jessica’s boyfriend, has a demonic mind. When he discovered Jessica’s love of bondage and orgasm control, Bob came up with an evil, evil plan, and he backed it up with an appropriate Chasti-Permalock device. …But Bob wouldn’t stop there. He didn’t just want to be able to edge her constantly without fear of her going over. He didn’t want her to get off so easy. First, the device would constantly be edging her, and not just through vaginal stimulation. Her clit would be numb, but she would have increased sensitivity around her lips, ass, and everywhere else. She would feel every little brush and shift of her clothing throughout the day, and would feel how her vagina lips would shift subtly from each footstep. The device would stimulate her with shivers up her spine, prickly feelings on the bottoms of her feet, a rush of warmth on her thighs or her breasts, or a gentle tickle up and down her sides. Her brain would also be stimulated, and whenever she saw a guy she would fixate on his crotch, wanting to see his bulge grow and maybe feel it, or play with his balls. Erotic thoughts would dance through her head all day, and would dominate her dreams all night. … Jessica’s ruined orgasms | tantalism.org

These are solo experiences, life histories, extreme masturbation practices, etc. Some are gay oriented.

 A masturbator gets lucky on the subway:

… As the train started moving again, she kept her body firmly right where it was - trapping my hand between her thigh and the partition. I moved my thumb a little more to the right… she rotated her thigh almost imperceptably to the left… and I suddenly realized where my hand almost was. Still without moving the rest of my hand that was visible, I lifted my thumb into a sideways “thumbs up” position, which brought it right between up her thighs, resting against her crotch. I felt her thigh muscles suddenly tense against the back of my hand - uh oh, was the gig up? Did I go too far? But no… instead she flexed and rotated her hips slightly forward - which had the effect of sliding her crotch more fully onto my thumb! I had long ago popped a serious boner in my pants over all this. What I assume was her clit was now pressed firmly against the knuckle of my thumb…. more at Chronic Masturbation, Crossdressing & Perversion: Subway Encounter
