| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/13/2008 9:09:06 PM | have you ever thought of joining your hubby and take things into your own hands ??? spice up your love life sweety , it will be fun . besides I would be more worry he he would not masturbate at all ... guys are just like women , ones in a while we need some alone time .. thats all... besides porn is just some form of fantacy , whats the big deal . its not like he can grab one of the girl and let her do him ... pc porn or tv porn , same thing ...... what did you think when he married you he forgot that he has something to play with other then you ???? masturbation is the most natural thing in life , yep it starts as boys and guess what grown men like to play to ... as long as they keep in mind that that thing has a shelf life , but Im sure he wont break it  | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/13/2008 11:41:26 PM | well, darkkitten.. why do dogs lick themselves? its obvious.. because they can.. lol.. thats why we all masturbate.... so, now here is a riddle for you.. when you can find the true answer to the riddle.. that will be when your husband will direct more attention toward you, and less on the online porn.. here it is: why is a loving house wife on an internet dating site chatting with other men.. and if you answer by saying that you are on here just for the forums.. well, i am certain that your problems will only increase... CLUE #1 the solution is within you...... CLUE #2 the solution is right at your fingertips......  | |

hes probably doing that because he is not getting enough attention from you....if he was he would not be on there looking at porn sorry, I have to disagree, some men (and women) are just wired more toward seeking porn than others.
yes, being ignored sexually while in a relationship could lead to a wandering eye...and hand, and sometimes it leads to rationalizing affairs outside the union.
porn is so readily available, no one has to borrow vids anymore, subscribe to mags, there are a million free sites with every conceivable type of peccadillo available just with a click of the mouse.  | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 9:40:49 AM | | I don't understand why this bothers women so much. Most men AND women masturbate. It doesn't mean they don't love their partner any less. Most people like variety. If the worst thing your husband did was masturbate, I say you are lucky. For all you know, as he was looking at the porn he was thinking about you. How about this? Have a talk with your husband about your feelings about this subject. | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 9:55:07 AM | The question is "Why does your husband masturbate?" This is a very significant event and likely a sign of something very wrong in your relationship. Some possible ressons:
1. He wants to avoid pregnancy
2. He no longer (or perhaps never did) finds you attractive.
3. He's basically selfish.
In any case, if you can't root out the cause of this problem and solve it, your marriage isn't going to be happy. | |

I strongly disagree with this assessment.
People masturbate for different reasons than they have sex when they're in a relationship. Masturbation is a selfish act; it's all about what he wants, it's fueled by his fantasies, it's not the real world or part of his real relationship. It's pure fantasy, and that's okay--as I see it, it's important that people are able to have their fantasy lives, whether they have relationships or not. When he wants real sex with real intimacy and connection, he can come to you; when he wants selfish fantasy without having to take anyone else's desires into account, he can masturbate. Unless he's addicted to porn, I see this as a healthy act.
If you're feeling ignored sexually in your relationship, that's another matter, and one worth discussing with him. But to me, that's a separate issue from normal, healthy masturbation. | |

The same reason married women masturbate. You're making Mt. Everest out of a friggin' ant hill.
Men jack off weather they're married or not. It doesn't mean you're worthless, or he doesn't want to have sex with you. It's a different experience doing it by yourself than with your significant other.
I have a feeling that you're a snooper too. | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 6:28:17 PM | | I do not really see this as a problem. Someone esle mentioned this but it does lead to fantastic stamina on his part. I had a man that did this every night (without porn though) and I didnt mind at all because I reaped the benefits from his super stam lol I would just talk to him and find out what it is about the porn that he likes. | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 6:43:05 PM | Men masterbate cuz they can?? I would expect one of the reasons would be that they just want to get off and don't want to waste the time trying to convince their S.O. to put out..  | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 6:44:53 PM | My take on this is ....married men masturbate because there is a disconnect between them and their partner. Nothing more or less. Whatever the reason the man is not connecting and of course this goes for the woman also.
In a committed relationship there needs to be an understanding of needs. Often the needs go unspoken (as men we are not naturally adept at nuance particularly when there is so much else going on around us) which is really the beginning of the end. Men...say what you want and need. Women... say what you want and need.
So much of this is really misunderstanding and unmet needs. Speak up!

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 6:51:08 PM | | I think having a regular sex life with a partner makes a person more turned on, not less. I don't see the problem, unless there is a porn addiction or if the man is not having sex with his wife. | |

All I know is I wish he would give me more attention OP I'm not reading 21 pages. However, the above quote taken from your original post is the crux of the problem. I would have retitled this thread. "Why does my man ignore me sexually and masterbate to porn?"
I was in a similar situation except that my fiance wasn't masterbating to porn but was addicted to sex with other women. It didn't make any sense. We had had a fantastic sexual relationship and I always yearned for him. Ultimately, I concluded that he was f*cked up emotionally, mentally and sexually.
This is the story of a man who values fantasy over reality. | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 7:32:28 PM | Abuse of a comatose wife, now an alert and oriented one who is feeling horny and neglected. Is this the day for off the wall posts or what? Maybe if you jerk it for him you'll get some much needed attention!

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/14/2008 10:22:46 PM | Dearest DarkKitten,
...Lets not point the finger at one sex here it's all! I know your speaking of your hubby when you say all married men but let me clue you in here it's single ones too, male and female sorry to say we all do
Yes it's a great feeling that does get old after a while , especially when you are alone not living or dating anyone in a long term relationship.
First off you have no reason to worry about your hubby and his masturbating , it is perfectly normal for a man or a women to self pleasure them selves.
Yes you are there and well there are things you can do to keep the fire and spice going. Please don't look at masturbating as being dirty or cheating it's not , it's normal all sexes do it not just one MALE & FEMALE DO !!!
It's a wonderful feeling and takes away lots of sexual tention and pressures of someone with a high sex drive. Don't look down or fault him he's doing nothing wrong . All you can do is continue to love him and show him by all your actions that come from your heart and don't get emotional when your hubby masturbates !
Let your hubby carry on with his self pleasures and you just sit back and enjoy all the rewards you get from all his love ~ It's normal to masturbate don't worry his hand won't fall off may get tried of rosey palm but he's doing nothing wrong:)
PS: At least hes with you and not doing anything dishonest or worse count your blessings sweety that he does love you and you love him live for each day don't let something this petty stand in your way of happiness go easy on the poor guy!
It's perfectly healthy for anyone male or female to masturbate !!!
Winks wonder if we should consult Dr. Phil or Dear Abbey or better yet Dr. Ruth .................???????? Geesh I feel like a sex Doctor lol! J/K trying to put alittle humor in this hot topic.
All the best to you -Brenny-  | |

| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/15/2008 7:53:29 AM | | Reading the OP and looking at the profile it seems things didn't work out for you and your husband. Sorry to hear, better luck in the future. | |
|
| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/15/2008 4:07:49 PM | Are you disturbed becuase he was masturbating or because he was masturbating to porn and not you? Sorrry but many of us masturbate(d) when married - by ourselves, to porn, to very hot fantsies in our lil ole pea brains...just cuz we can and we feel like it. No disrespect intended usually. I haven't actually heard of someone masturbating because they wanted to tick off their partner...THAT would be really mean and mean because of the intent not so much the action. Would you really like him to wake you up and let you know he wants some attention NOW? You might, might not....let him know. And remember, turnabout is fair play!!! | |
|
| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/15/2008 4:12:59 PM | | uhmm...this thread is over 2 years old...i think the OP has probably figured out why by now... | |
|
| Why do married men masturbate? Posted: 9/15/2008 4:29:41 PM | You and he need to communicate what your desires are. Maybe he is too shy to share with you. Really you won't know unless you ask him.
~ OR ~
Find out what he was masturbating to, and turn the fantasy into reality
~ OR ~
Sign his ass up for some gay porn in his in box to get back at him.
Oh... ^^^ 2 year old thread... dam | |
