A strange question about masturbation?

[lostinlove]

I was recently thinking about a lot of things and I was wondering, how did everyone else learn about masturbation?

For me, I was around 12, a friend of mine came over and we were sort of messing around with each other, being pubescent boys and I guess at some point he mentioned "jerking off." I had no idea what that meant and so he told me and later that night [I guess] I tried it a little. Truthfully, I don't even remember when I learned the point of it--probably a lot later than I think.

Anyhow, what about others? Did anyone else have to learn it from a friend or was I just a strange case?

I started having wet dreams when I was around 13. I started puberty late. At that time I was aware I had an attraction to guys --- and women ... and wasn't ready to deal with it so didn't even try jerking off even though my friends from school were always talking about it. Also I didn't do sleep overs with school mates then because I didn't want to get into any sort of situation that had anything to do with sex or even talking about it more than I had to. Pretty screwed up, huh? My parents and brother were cooler about my confused sexuality than I was back then. Finally my brother was home from college and found the stash of underwear I had in the back of the bathroom cabinet that was messed up from wet dreams. He told me if I started jerking off all that would stop. So in the beginning I started jerking off just to keep from messing up so much underwear. By the time I was 14 I was doing it mornings, twice at school and then three or four times before my parents came home in the afternoons and once or more before I went to sleep. For my 15th birthday my brother privately gave me a prepaid debit card for $100 and a quick tutorial on how to use it to get membership on porn sites. woooo hooooo! I used that sucker up fast!

My friend introduced and shared his masturbation experience with me and "encouraged" me too when I was about 14 years old. So you are not alone

I was so curious and tempted, so I went back home and tried masturbating. The orgasm was so great that I had to keep jerking off continuously for about 4 times that day to feel the pleasure again and again. Ever since then, I masturbate without fail everyday till today.

Oh... I don't remember I masturbated at an early age. The true first time was around 12-y-o, then my wet dreams began at 13, but I've always thought I was attracted to girls until I finally discovered I was gay on my 14th birthday. Since then, I jerk off at porn videos and hot pictures...

Nothing too interesting in that

I can't remember how I started masturbating, seems like it was so long ago.

I'm not exactly sure how old I was, maybe 10 or 12, but just so you know, my story is going to sound weird. Growing up on the farm, I used to have to climb up to the hay mow in the barn to get hay down for the cattle. There was a latter on the far side, but once the barn was filled with bales of hay, it was more effort to use the latter on the far side, so I would climb up one of the poles from the cattle feeder along the outside of the barn, then swing around to an exterior access door (just so you have an idea, the feeder was a series of these poles spaced just wide enough so the cattle could stick their heads into the feeder, but not climb into it).

Ok, so visualize someone shimming up a wooden pole to understand the positioning and leg actions used to accomplish it. One day when I was climbing, I started to get these "sensations" in the lower part of my body. I totally had no idea what it was, but it felt good, so rather than continue up to the hay mow, kind of stayed at top of the cattle feeder pole and continued to move my legs as I would while I was climbing. The sensations continued until I'd finally get tired and stopped. I did not have an "orgasm" per say, or maybe it would be considered a "dry orgasm", because no "fluid" was produced. This continued for many months I think, not sure just how long, but I remember enjoying it, just not really understanding what was happening.

I believe after one of those sessions and I had finally gotten to the hay mow, I must have put two and two together, and realized my dick was hard. So I pulled it out and started rubbing it, and finally started to "jerk-off". Didn't take too long before I realized I was getting the same sensations, and a whole lot easier & less strenuous than me "humping" that pole, lol. So the new method (jacking) went on for a few months, but still no "fluid" release.

Then one day I had quite a scare. I was in the privacy of my hay mow, lol, and jacking my new "toy", when all of a sudden, my penis erupted! I didn't know what had just happened, or why! I was shocked to say the least, and the fluid was mixed with a little bit of blood. I was too embarrassed to ask my parents or siblings, and besides, I came from a family that didn't talk about "any of that kind of stuff". Well I left things alone for a while, but finally succumbed to the urges and give it another whirl. This time when I came, the fluid was just milky color with no blood, and the feeling was more intense, so I accepted that this "activity" came with the watery results, and learned to "point" my dick in a direction so the cum wouldn't get on anything important, lol.

So that's my story, it's funny how some things leave such a lasting memory....

I was in 6th grade when I found out what it was. I was in middle school and I was in a reading group with some boys. We were goofing off and somehow the topic of "masturbation" came up. I, like the new boy I was, asked "What is masturbation?" Everyone shut up and stared at me all at once..
After I found out, the next day I tried it. I remember I used softsoap brand handwash (I didn't have a clue)
After a few strokes I finally came and I remember thinking "hmmm... odd.. white stuff is coming out of there.. that can't be healthy"..
I kept on doing it though..

I don't even remember when or why I started masturbating.
