#397 Is Masturbation Bad for You? Let’s Set the Record Straight

In this episode, I’m calling out the misguided advice telling men to quit masturbating to be better lovers. The truth? Cutting off self-pleasure without understanding it is wrecking your confidence and your performance.

✅ Cutting off masturbation kills sexual confidence
When you label self-pleasure as “wrong,” you wire guilt into your arousal—and that guilt follows you into the bedroom.

✅ You master your sex life by knowing your own body
Men who lead well in bed first learn what turns them on alone. Masturbation is about building that awareness, without pressure, without performance.

✅ Masturbation and porn are not the same
Porn can desensitize you. But masturbation—done right—is a tool. It helps you build control, clarity, and connection with your body.
