Masturbation and Selfishness: Any Link?
Related to country: Nigeria


I do not think it would take an Einstein to see some relationship between masturbation and selfishness (which here i decide to call self-centredness).

That it is yet to be explained is does not mean that there is no connection becasue each person is aware of the aroma. I do not want to go into the problem attempted an answer by Chalmers et al. Still there is a relationship between masturbation and self-centredness. (I have decided not to look into whether it is appropriate to be selfcentred and why so ornot).

Human sexuality from all intent was geared towards a union between two subjects. Going by the most basic evidence which is the conjugal organs, one is meant to enter the other.

this is actually the big question.I want us here at TIG to look into the issue and see how we can help each other. so many are into it and suffering teh guilt. Like the HIV there is a big stigma to it and people cannot even talk abnout it openly. Seediscussions on it here and see if you have something to share with us. I believe you have the exposure as you have worked with young persons.
