Masturbation during marriage

[kbadair_2002]

I have been married just over 43 years. Back in 1972 right after my marriage, I still had the urge to masturbate and did not think it was normal. At that time I never ever discussed such a topic with any man or even my doctor. I had and still have a strong libido and am very thankful. At the time of the Internet---about 2000---I found that other married men did do this. I began masturbating when I was fourteen. I still do it 2 to 3 times weekly. It is such a relief to be able to do it without waiting for my wife to be in the mood.

I don't think this is unusual and is a perfectly normal thing to do as long as you still have good sex with your wife...it should not replace sex with your wife...

A man needs sexual release and pleasure and when the wife cannot provide that, I guy needs to do what he needs to do to take care of it.

Cheers,

Curt

The original poster is not alone. Masturbation serves many purposes, including adding variety to your sex life without involving another person.

I've been married 36 years and still masturbate at least once a week. The wife simply cannot keep up with me since menopause. I don't believe there is anything wrong with it after all it's human nature, I know the wife still masturbates although not like she/we did when we were younger.

55 here and I have masturbated since I figured out what it was! I still masturbate 2-3 times a week and have sex as often as I can (er - as often as the wife feels in the mood) allows which is usually about twice a week. I feel there is absolutely nothing wrong with it - it gives you release when you want/need it and allows you to make it feel "just right"

I don't think I can put links on here, but if you go to the blausen.com site,
they have interesting medical videos. seach for masturbation, male reproductive system, impotence, etc and you can learn a lot.

I agree with everyone. It is perfectly normal and healthy. As long as your spouse is not denied her desires, do it often as you desire and enjoy the wonderful feeling and release. Don't rush it....savor it. I still do it 2-3 times a day...unless something interferes.

Genome .............two to three times ? a day ?????

Wow man. You must have a libido out the wazoo.

Could you tell us about your libido and if you are on TRT or any supplements? Arent you over sixty???

Congratulations on that kind of sex drive, bro.

I guess it is that old saying....use it or lose it. Have generally ejaculated multiple times a day since my pre-teens. Early bloomer. Just never let up. Naturally there are times when it is not possible. Too busy or unexpected intrusions, Will be 70 in a few months. Retired with little to do but trout fish, eat, watch TV/computer and wank. Average 18 -20 a week. Two or 3 per day on average with more occasionally. I do use some Androgel about twice a week for energy, strength, clear mind, etc. But even when I forget to use it Spike is still very demanding for attention. I helped a buddy to significently increase his libido. Told him to jack daily...even if not in the mood. Physiology adapts to the new level of use and the libido is geared up. Now he is a horndog who needs to jack daily...and he loves it.

Amazing, Genome............Simply Amazing

I would think with all those demands on your prostate, your prostate is in excellent shape. Do you have to get up any at your age in the night because of prostate problems causing more frequent urination. You need to be the poster guy for anti aging sexually and physically, considering the shape you are in.

With all the action Spike is seeing, I am wondering if you and Spike are multi orgasmic guys.

I am in the early stages of MMOs after having read a book recommended by a good friend entitled LOVE SATISFIES. The book changed my life with respect to aging and my sexuality. On Tuesday, I had a body shaking orgasm with the help of my wife which was more intense than my first time getting off solo at 13. The link to the book I ordered is here: http://www.lovesatisfies.com/

Congratulation man on your sexual and physical powers.

Thanks for your informative post and best wishes to you and Spike in your retirement.
