How TF is this news? You'd have to be living in a chastity belt not to know this.

Or just have zero self reflection, which is actually more common than you might think...

Oh, no - the fact so many are not self-aware or the least bit mindful is actually one of the more significant contributors to my depression. But I'd have thought people so deeply self-absorbed would be even more prone to self-pleasuring and aware of its pleasant (& useful) effects.

As an expert on this subject it is my obligation to point out that on the flip side it also takes 10-90 minutes off your valuable sleep time.

If you do it right. For some it would be seconds, but that doesn't have the same benefits overall.

they are not aware of it because they are ruled by outside forces instead of themselves. So society and religion is what determines what and how they think.

If it took me 90 minutes, I don't think I'd have the patience to do it.

Sounds to me like you need more practice to get that down to a manageable time.

I guess that would be what it sounds like to someone who mistakes an obvious joke for someone pointlessly sharing how they jack off.

Then again I wouldn't expect an amateur masturbator to get it.

That's like saying brushing your teeth takes time away from sleeping. You're supposed to plan ahead, especially because having established bedtime rituals helps you fall asleep.

They did straight up say 10 minutes as well. Sometimes it’s good to take your time.

Anything over 2 minutes is noob-numbers.
