Masturbation - the male perspective
Created | Updated Nov 15, 2002
Under the spreading chestnut tree
The village blacksmith sat
Amusing himself
By abusing himself
And coming off in his hat
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
From the day the male-foetus' hands grow long enough to grasp at the "third leg", 'till the man in question is dead and buried, the penis is a constant source of amusement and amazement to the male gender. This certainly applies to other people as well. This amusement sometimes extends beyond the grave - in Iceland, for example, there exists a phallological museum.
All men experience a dearth of sexual companionship sometime in their brief and meaningless existence. They must therefore resort to what is commonly refferred to as masturbation. Masturbation is the stimulation or manipulation of one's own genitals, especially to achieve orgasm. The english language offers a plethora of different words and terms to describe this act - the english being quite proficient w****rs. A few examples are: Tossing, W******g, Ham-Boning, Beating the Dummy/Meat and Spanking the Monkey.
In times past sexual self-gratification was was considered an unclean act - even a sin. Sperm was believed to have been created for procreational purposes only. Nowadays it is not a punishable offence in civilized countries although tossing in public is generally frowned upon.
