When Self-Pleasuring is Really “Procrasturbation”
by John Dugan OwnerEngaging
in a little self-pleasuring is a favorite pastime of many a man. Some guys
self-stimulate more than others, which is perfectly fine. Every guy has his own
specific sensual needs and preferred outlets, and as long as it doesn’t
negatively impact male organ care, that’s fine. But there are times when
self-pleasuring becomes procrasturbation – self-gratifying as a way of putting
off doing something else. When exactly does self-pleasuring become procrasturbation?
And more importantly, is it necessarily a bad thing?
Definition
As is often the case when dealing with self-pleasuring-related
issues, coming up with hard and fast rules and definitions can be difficult
when it comes to procrasturbation. As a matter of fact, some people use a
definition of procrasturbation that doesn’t include self-pleasuring at all;
instead, they define it as getting a feeling of great euphoria simply from
putting off doing a difficult or daunting task.
But more people probably consider procrasturbation to mean
engaging in the act of self-pleasuring as a way to put off starting on or
completing a difficult task or facing a challenging problem. For example, a
college student perhaps has an important paper that needs to get done, but rather
than focus on that, he surfs through his favorite adult literature sites for an
hour and focuses on rubbing his manhood.
Procrasturbation can be a “one off” situation, such as that just
described, or it can be something more chronic – and may occur in somewhat
subtle ways. For example, perhaps a man is aware that something about his
relationship with his girlfriend is causing some anxiety. Every time these
feelings of anxiousness arise, rather than explore them, he decides to
self-stimulate, after which the feelings of anxiety have gone away – for a
while at least. In such cases, he is using self-pleasuring to avoid dealing
with feelings he identifies as unpleasant – and he may not even be aware that
he is doing so.
Good or bad
So is procrasturbation then a bad thing? It really depends upon
the individual person and the individual situation.
Consider again the case of the college student who self-gratifies
rather than start on an important paper. If after self-fondling he decides it’s
time to go out and get a few beers with his pals, rather than start on the
paper, then his procrasturbation seems to be part of a pattern to
avoid work that needs to get done.
But it could be that after self-gratifying, he feels much less
tension and anxiety. He may be able to think more clearly and be in a better
frame of mind to collect his thought and begin work, in which case his
procrasturbation would have been beneficial.
It’s a little harder to make the case that the second example of
procrasturbation is beneficial, as the man clearly seems to be using
self-pleasuring to avoid facing a problem. But it is possible that this person
is simply not at a place in his life when he can comfortably confront
relationship issues. In general, however, using self-pleasuring as an excuse to
avoid problems which can and should be addressed is not the best approach.
One other issue with chronic procrasturbation: if a guy isn’t
careful, enthusiastic self-pleasuring may lead to a raw, overworked member. In
such cases, a man benefits from regularly using a top drawer male organ health creme (health
professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe
for skin). A rubbed raw manhood needs to be re-hydrated, so the proper
crème will have both a high end emollient (such as shea butter) and a natural
moisturizer (like vitamin E). The skin will also benefit from a crème with a
potent antioxidant, such as alpha lipoic acid. Antioxidants fight excess free
radicals which, if left alone, can cause oxidative stress that further weakens
male organ skin.
