MB or No MB

[LewisCarroll]

I have heard and read a lot both for and against MB. What I want to know is: should I MB? Why? How often?

I have a few other questions as well:
1: How do you tell the difference between precum and semen? At the times I do MB, a mostly clear fluid with a little white in it drips out my penis. It doesn't shoot or squirt. This is the only fluid that comes out, so what is it?

2: Is it normal for your penis to go flaccid right after ejaculation from MB?

Please Help!

I, personally, think that MB is ok for men to do. It is a good, healthy way to rid yourself of pent up fluids, as well as stress, tension, etc. from time to time. That's the trick, though, is keeping MB to a occasional basis. Once it becomes a daily habit or obsessive activity, it's probably time to cut back a bit. It shouldn't be a major priority in life.

Precum is a fluid that is discharged from your penis during arousal, whether you are MB or not. Some men get very little precum, while others leak it consistently. It is a clear, semi-sticky fluid (consistency of lube, really) that is nowhere near as sticky as cum (at least, I assume, for most men). Meanwhile, cum is the mixture of sperm and semen in a sticky, white fluid that is emitted at the point of a man's orgasm/ejaculation. For some men, it is shot out of the penis at ejaculation, while other men tend to cum with a dribbling effect. As long as it coincides with orgasm, it's most likely cum (though small amounts of cum may be released out of the penis due to prolonged arousal, say, if you are edging for hours on end and reach a point too close to climax).

As far as the level of erection following release/orgasm caused by MB, it varies in men. Some men may stay hard for a few minutes or longer with continued arousal; however, chances are, if a man is no longer stimulated after cumming, his penis will go soft relatively quickly.

Hope this helps.

I think the main argument (or one of them) against MB is that is possible (and easy) to do it too much. Do it too much and it can eat up valuable time you could spend on other things, eventually sort of leave you in a funk, drain your libido. also: fewer or no WD. On the other hand (heh), it's fun, healthy, stress-relieving. Either way isn't necessarily wrong; you get to decide for yourself what you want.

I'm a girl, but when I cum I'm a dribbler, too. And it looks like you said, mostly clear but with a lil white in it, mine sort of looks like the liquid you get on top when you open a yougurt sometimes.
