its a myth. what the people that are against guys masturbating are saying is that by masturbating your are causing chemical changes in the brain. so if your chemically changing yoru brain it is being damaged or changed in a negative way.

What they dont say is that the same chemicals taht are released with masturbation are also released during sex with a partner.

So if it were true then everyman sense the first man would be drooling blind idiots.

To much of anything will hurt your mind. To much food, to many cigarretts, need I go on?
When masturbation gets to the point that you're to sore to move, or it takes the place of everything in your day, then it's to much. Then, it's not healthy for you.

Physically hurt your mind I highly doubt it!!! If it becomes an obsesion then you are in trouble... I think that masturbation can become an addiction like gambling if you are not carefull...
