Sorry I don’t buy it - as “masturbation” anyways.
However I do believe that what you’re claiming has a resonable and definite explanation.
According to Freud, Mascow, every childhood psychology textbook, and my own personal experiences with 4 children;
Children first become sexually aware between the ages of 4 to 7. This usually exhibits itself in awareness of their own bodies and parts and those of others. Usually their parents and other siblings. After this initial awareness, the interest in sexual (if you can even call it this) anatomy is shut off completely until adolesence. Then we all know what happens.
Now I’m not saying you’re full of shit, but I doubt that what ever you were doing at age 5 could be considered masturbation in the literal sense of the words definition. Self exploration is probably more like it. I also doubt that what ever you did, you did on a consistance basis since age five unless you’re also a victim of some form of abuse, be it sexual, physical or extreme verbal (alcoholic parent?).
Now I will site from some personal experinces of life with my own children:
Daughter number one, now 11, went through a short phase of checking herself and mom out.
talking about moms breast, asking why dad was different, and touch herself a few times in the bath.
When sis number 2 came along she was ok with the thinking that went something like; hey sis you look like me, I guess this is the way we look. And that was the end of it for her …. for now.
Daughter number 2 is way more curious. (current age 9) She went through the same stuff as number one except at around age 6 or so she didn’t think twice about grabbing at someone elses breast to check them out, be it my wife, grandma, my 40dd neice , etc. She would also make vain attempts to get close (hugs,etc) with all her older females cousins, etc, so she could brush up against them and check them out this way. Both my wife and the niece above said that they had caught her looking under their shirts when they were sleeping. My wife also used to bath the 3 oldest together until a certain age, and until number 2 was becoming interested in #3’s penis
Which brings me to #3, my boy. He’s currently age 6. He’s been pulling on his wanker since he found it dangling there.
He doesn’t offer any explanation and it doesn’t seem to concern him. He also likes to run around naked, but not as much as he used to. The wife and I just tell him, hey bud you’re going pull that off if you’re not careful. It is interesting that he’s really yanking hard on it sometimes though. But he’s discovered an even better thing to do with it.
My wife purchased a pretty professional back massager a while back and my son has recently taken to lounging around on our bed watching TV and taking it to task on his wanker. My wife flipped out and didn’t know what to say when the girls alerted her to his activities. He’s not bashful about it, and if any one sees him he just laughs histerically about it.
The wife told me it was my problem now. Personally I think it’s funny as hell, I just hope he’s not damaging anything.
I told the wife he was just priming it for the big growth thats coming up in a few years.
I finally got the lad to discuss it with me and he said the following when I asked why he was doing it;
Well dad, at first it doesn’t do anything but then after about a minute it starts to tickle more and more and then it makes me laugh. I asked him if it made his penis “cold” (thats what he calls it when he gets a hard on) and he looked at me real funny and said NO! So I just figured it was a passing phase and I’m pretty sure it was since the last time I caught him at it I jokingly told him he was gonna break something and he hasn’t really done it since.
Could this be considered “masturbation”. I really don’t think so. Lately he hasn’t been that fixated about his wanker and his interest seems to be going back to sleep .. until the storm hits in a few years.
Daughter #4 is only recently just 4 years old. Until now she’s only made a few vauge references to my wifes breast and the fact that “boys have a penis”. But if she’s anything like the rest, well this is when it started.
Myself, well I don’t remember any of this kind of early childhood stuff. I do however remember the first time I wacked it to completion. I was about 11 years old. I had been sitting in the dugout during a little league game when some of the older kids had brought up the subject of what masturbation was. I didn’t have a clue and my parents nor anyone else had ever given me one. They started describing what it was and how people did it, they left out the cum part though.
So about a week later I’m laying in bed trying to fall asleep and thinking about some girl I had a crush on.
Then the brain got to thinking about what the older kids had said and one thing led to another …
Well believe me, no one was more surprised about what happened next than I.
And I have to say that I never even comptemplated touching my wanker until that time.
Well it’s been down hill ever since ……
Christ, did I just put my first (self) sexual experince on the WWW?
I’m just not looking forward to day I forget to clear the cookies out and my wife or the kids find out
about my membership here.
