Hey all. Is there anything else that can cause you to masturbate besides porn? If so, what are they and how do you avoid them?
Erotic thinking, erotic or trash talking. I like being sexual when I talk to a girl, if I said to her via messenger that I want to fap, or something sexual (ex : I want you to xxx), it tend to makes me horny. Actually I'm fucked up, so thinking about hardcore hentai that have no sens can bring me to masturbate or at least bring me to watch porn and then masturbate. Some video clip, such as Nicki Minaj can make me horny which make me wondering if young people aren't corrupted to like porn with those artist that sexualize everything. Music itself can makes me horny, "Shut up and let me go" is my favorite music to masturbate and think about a dynamic scenario. When I want to pee, I can also want to masturbate. Damn answering to this thread makes me feel like a man that is always horny omg.
Escapism is a major reason why people choose to masterbate with or without porn. Anxiety or stress can become overpowering forces that pressure the individual to seek ways to avoid the situation. This dilemma is a major cause of many addictions. In Pavlovian way, a person can begin to associate stress with a reason to PMO.
Procastinating about other stuff in your life. When you drop the ball on other things you wanted to do, it gets more likely to drop the ball with PMO.
Yeah, you guys are right. Loneliness also is one of the major contributing factors. Why? Because if you're angry or depressed or anxious or stressed or watching a video or talking to a girl IN A HALL FULL OF PEOPLE (OR HOME WITH FAMILY), you won't fap there, only till u get to your room and alone. So i believe loneliness should be no 1 on your list of things to avoid.
Seeing a hot women in public with short shorts or on tv , I used to go to my room and fap after seeing those things now I kind laugh at that those actions as just someone who needs to grow up more .
Make sure I'm not gay. Okay so lately I've been having random gay thoughts(I'm not gay) and I really REALLY want to just jerk off and fantasize to one of my coworkers who has a nice body. But I'm telling myself repeatedly it will pass give it time.
Just being a normal healthy horny man without a partner. That will do it for me. Don't really need the porn to feel the need. And I guess you would avoid that by getting a girlfriend/wife.
