This site talks about common masturbation myths, including that it will stunt your growth or make you go bald. It also talks about some of the health benefits of masturbation:

"We are happy to report that all of these myths and misconceptions have been proven to be false by the medical community. Masters and Johnson who are a team of physicians who pioneered the field of human sexuality, and other researchers have demonstrate no negative short-term or long-term medical health effects from masturbation."

"It will make you go blind. It will make your palms grow hairy. Such myths about masturbation are largely a thing of the past. But the latest research has even better news for young men: frequent self-pleasuring could protect against the most common kind of cancer."

I agree that a lot of posts in here are garbage and spouting information that has been proven false in the medical community years ago. However, I do not think deleting those posts is the answer. Those myths are still out there floating around, and a lot of young people do not know enough about anatomy to know that they are not true. I would rather those people hear about those myths here where we can explain why they are not true and provide evidence, rather than have us sweep those myths under the carpet and forget they were ever there only for young people to hear about them somewhere else where they can't ask questions or see evidence to the contrary.

I stand well correct. I didn't think about it before I responded. spouting information that has been proven false in the medical community years ago: I still back up my opinion of this being deleted if it weren't for your posts. Razz
do you have all these sites on tab at hand or something? very nice research for backing up your statement. Wink

I do have a few sites saved in my favorites, but the others I search for. I search this stuff every day, so it does not usually take me too long since I know what I am looking for. Also, since I know about the subject, I can weed out the garbage fairly quickly. Smile

[quote="Justin_Toronto"]Keep in mind that during puberty masturbating too often will stunt your penis growth.[/quote

HA HA HA HA!!! Man, you have a sense of humor!
Heck, it's a good thing I pull one off several times a day, otherwise, my penis would be 7 feet long and as big around as a telephone pole. HA HA HA!!!
