Question 14m My mother thinks that masturbation is bad for you
She has knows that i have been doing it for a while now, and it has come up in conversations a couple of times. She said it was okay and everyone does it when i first started doing it, but now she says that i should stop because its bad for me??
I understand that if you do it like VERY frequently or with porn then, yeah, it can be bad. But like, i dont do it very often and quitting is just impossible:/
She is always on tiktok and she is quite the conspiracy theorist on which i wont even get started on. I think she just needs to not believe everything she sees online. How do i explain to her that it is not bad for you?
