Last Saturday, June 13, 2015, a video was uploaded on YouTube of a man masturbating on the jeepney. According to the uploader, the man was sited in front of her, at first, she taught that the man was just scratching something near his pants, but later on as she look again, she was shocked to see the man already unzipped his pants, his pen*s was out and masturbated.

Why do these things happen? Why does man masturbate? What’s the purpose of masturbating? Let’s try to find out.

According to an article, if there’s one thing that almost every guy is an expert at, it’s masturbation. It is an erotic stimulation especially of one’s own genital organs, commonly resulting in orgasm and achieved by manual or other bodily contact exclusive of sexual intercourse, by instrumental manipulation or occasionally by sexual fantasies.

Masturbation is the safest form of sex, because no one caught an STD (a sexual condition) from himself or made himself pregnant. It is a good way of relieving the sexual tension that can build up over time, especially for people without partners or whose partners are not willing or available for sex. But it has also low risks, for instance, frequent masturbation can cause minor skin irritation. Forcefully bending an erect pen*s can rupture the chambers that fill with blood, a rare but gruesome condition called penile fracture.

It is normal to masturbate as long as it is not done in public places or causes significant distress to the person. It may cause distress if it is done compulsively or interferes with daily life and activities.

Just like the man who masturbated on the jeepney, it is not a proper thing to do in public since a lot of people usually travels through jeepneys.
