Why Did people up to the 20th century think that masturbation drives you insane? And why was that belief so popular that even non religious doctors and philosophers propagated that view?

Deluded Christcucks in charge of sexual "morals"? Good thing this shit is over!

Probably something about Onan spilling his seed on the ground in the bible and being cursed for it. Of course this wasn't masturbating, but a pull-out. Maybe it was interpreted as being pretty much the same thing.

they just wanted to sell anti-masturbation devices

over masturbation is actually dangerous and can lead to adrenal fatigue and can cause/enhance depression and anxiety since it damages the reward circuitry in your brain. So they were on to something

SEMEN IS CEREBROSPINAL VAPOUR IN DENSER FORM; CEREBROSPINAL VAPOUR IS ONE'S PHYSICAL VITAL ESSENCE —IT IS ONE'S SPIRIT, WHICH ANIMATES THE BODY—; AT ORGASM, ONE RELEASES VRIL, THROUGH SEMEN, AND THROUGH AETHERIC EXPULSION, THEREFORE, MASTURBATION LITERALLY DEPLETES ONE OF LIFE, ENTAILING DEFICIENCIES THAT MANIFEST PSYKHICALLY, ANIMICALLY, MENTALLY, AND PHYSICALLY.

STOP MASTURBATING.

STOP POSTING.

Quite possibly the most ill-informed post on all of Veeky Forums, and that's saying something.

EITHER YOU ARE IRREMEDIABLY ATTACHED TO YOUR VICE, OR YOU HAVE INVESTED INTEREST IN KEEPING OTHERS ATTACHED TO THEIR VICE.

WHICH IS IT? IS IT BOTH?

They were right tho?

I do not avoid women, Mandrake, but I do deny them my essence.

>Masturbation is bad, who cares about keeping yourself satisfied, just force yourself to chase after women all day and night, do everything you possibly can for them on the very off chance that they'll sleep with you! Give women all the power you dirty goy!

Chimps only masturbate when they're being held in captivity. Wild chimps do not masturbate.

Put that in your sock and stroke it

Try harder, Schlomo.

physiologically speaking masturbation is no different from sex

Trying to get women to have complete control over sexual pleasure is LITERALLY a Jewish plot you falseflagging Zionist SJW

1. THAT STATEMENT IS FALSE; SEXUAL ACTIVITY ENTAILS INTERCHANGE OF VRIL IN A CIRCUIT; IN MASTURBATION THERE IS NO CIRCUIT, THEREFORE, NO INTERCHANGE OF VRIL, THEREFORE, VRIL RELEASED AT ORGASM IS WASTED, AND YOU ARE LEFT WITH LESS THAN YOU HAD BEFORE ORGASM.

2. SEXUAL ACTIVITY IS NOT A PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS ONLY —MIND, SPIRIT, AND SOUL, ARE ALSO INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS.

What are you even posting about? Learn to read, idiot. Maybe if you stopped masturbating you would be able to comprehend what you read, and to follow a simple conversation.

Masturbator here, not insane and life is good.

>Masturbator here...
>... life is good.

YOU ARE NOT ALIVE AT ALL.

>Why Did people up to the 20th century think that masturbation drives you insane?
because it's true. if you masturbate, your test goes down, it causes fatigue and depression, and most importantly, you neglect your wife or girlfriend. the ancients were right on this one, fellas.

>physiologically speaking masturbation is no different from sex
you wrong, boyo.
there's a very big difference.
"The post-orgasmic prolactin increase following intercourse is greater than following masturbation and suggests greater satiety."

It would be better if no people had sex. I wish I wasn't so consumed with fucking lust all the time, although the older I get the lower my libido gets.

whew. this thread.

Can you regenerate lost vital essence?

Because it's more or less true. Stop watching porn.

Type like a normal fucking person
