I'd like to know what percentage of Metafilter readers wear corrective eyewear. And those of you wearing contact lenses, you're not foolin' anyone. posted by Blazecock Pileon at 5:15 PM on July 9

Er...my original comment correcting Navelgazer's link got deleted, as did the comment that responded to that with a joke about one-handed typing. As my comment above only makes sense as a response to that comment, I wonder if the mod who removed the other two could remove my above comment and this one? posted by yoink at 5:18 PM on July 9

Q: "Hi, I'm an eighteen year old girl and every once and a while, I masturbate. The problem is that I've heard it's a mortal sin to do this."
A: "Yes, you're 18 years of age; living in a fallen culture that has distorted the true purpose of sexuality; and you practice a faith that teaches that what you are doing is a mortal sin...and that happens to be the truth. But before you get too depressed, do you truly have full knowledge of what sex is all about and are you able to give full consent to your actions. Others may argue with me, but I would suspect the answer to both of those questions is "no." Now this is not to excuse the behavior."
that is awful. posted by sloe at 5:57 PM on July 9

You think a day is enough for you to avoid wanking jokes? Pfft... (rolls eyes, makes 'whatta jerkoff' motion) posted by Greg_Ace at 7:12 PM on July 9
before hovering any of the links, i went into the thread.
with the hope that it wouldn't be what it implied it would be.
that would have been clever.

Amen to that. Get out and meet someone. It's a moral crime to have a libidinous 18 year old girl wasting time at home when she could be.. [actually, I'll stop right there. But many of you were thinking the same thing] posted by MuffinMan at 5:54 AM on July 10 [1 favorite]
It certainly makes sense. You probably wouldn't want to masturbate *too* much, as you'd be spilling too much seed, but it seems that it would work the same way as a controlled forest fire. Clearing out the old stuff generate news growth. Get rid of that old, moldy sperm and generate some new, speedy guys.
Back when I was in school, sperm donors were required (and limited) to masturbate three times a week. I'm sure the company had some research to support that approach... posted by mrgrimm at 9:21 AM on July 10
