> [@Excalibre](#): > > When it’s not pleasurable, for me it’s a mental difficulty. You need some new fantasies or new porn or something. Are you always thinking about the same thing when you commit your solitary sins of the flesh? That’s a surefire way to get bored, and you can’t let sex with yourself get stale. Once a day isn’t enough to damage the equipment, and I can hardly imagine getting bored with it at that frequency, but I would recommend you only do it when you want to. I smoke, and it’s easy to get caught in the habit of always having a cigarette at, say, 11:00 in the morning, and to do it without even thinking about whether you want it. But if you wait until you really want that cigarette, it’s gonna be a better experience. Same goes with self-abuse; sure, you can go at it until your palms are hairy and your hand is cramped, but it’s better if you make sure that every time you touch your naughty place, it’s because you really want to and not just out of habit. ROFL. I really love the wit on some of the people here. ---

All I have to say is Never, ever, ever! use shampoo as a lubricant if you aren’t in the shower. My dick cracked open and bled. What? It says TMI right there in the title. ---

> [@Uncommon Sense](#): > > That, or just set yourself up to get “caught”. Getting caught will squelch the urge for quite some time. I donno, for some _ahem_ people, the possibility of getting caught seems to stimulate the urge. > [@Eleusis](#): > > All I have to say is Never, ever, ever! use shampoo as a lubricant if you aren’t in the shower. My dick cracked open and bled. Or _in_ the shower. Most anyways, there’s better shampoos. Read the ingredients, stay away from Sodium Laurel and Laureth Sulfates. ---

For those who find masturbation a part of life like our OP here, with or without a partner, I’d rather humbly suggest some of the toys for guys to aid the task. Sleeves and the “ultra-realistic” vaginas are pretty, uh, fucking cool. Get some nice water-based lubricant and the whole experience is very nice. The sleeves have many great uses for couples, too. Toys are fun. Buy them. 😃 ---

Now that we are on the subject, I have a question too… I can’t for the life of me get off by using my hands. When I do, I have to have LOTS of lube, and it takes me like 30 minutes to climax. (By that time I’ve gotten bored and just give up) My method is good old fasioned bed humping. Am I weird or what? 😕 ---
