Yeah, it's not like Chemda doesn't say funny shit all the time, but it's not often she out-funnies Keith like that. I laffed and laffed out loud.

That's a good point, it really does seem like it's far more normal for boys to start beating off when they reach puberty and then have sex later on, whereas for girls, who're far more subjected to feeling ashamed to be sexual as teenagers, it makes sense they'd resist it for much longer.

I learned about masturbation from a church choir director from a neighboring town. He was pretty nice for a pedophile molester.

Totally have to disagree with Keith about this one - talk to the kids about sex AND masturbation. It's part of life, it's normal, it's not dirty.

Obviously Keith never had these talks w/ his parents. No wonder he's so fucked up in the head about shit.

I didn't discover the joy of masturbating until I was about 18 or so - I never really heard anyone talk about it regarding females, only when talking about guys. I think parents should discuss periods and sex with their kids. I had a very religious upbringing (irish catholic), my mum still refers to sex as a 'special hug shared between married people'. Enough said. Anyway it seems I waited longer than most to have sex, (21) but by that time I knew what the craic was regarding sex, protection etc - not through any guidance from my parents.

Ignoring the topic of sex with your kids doesn't mean they won't have it - it just means they may go into it without being fully aware of the consequences. Talk to them about sex and masturbation, just so they know what's going on and that it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Also I think it depends on the people whether masturbation leads to sex so I need some sort of middle ground on this poll

If only masturbation led to more fucking.

I know that the original conversation centered mostly around women, but I would argue that Keith's own personal history undermines his point. He was sexually repressed until the age of 18, at which point everything came out like a tidal wave. Most people don't operate this way, and most people have sexual knowledge before they masturbate or before they have sex. I would argue that there is a correlation between these two points. I would also say that this point is backed up even further by the fact that Keith hardly remembers his sexual education class in school.

Same here. I was rubbing myself on things a lot when I was 4-5 because it felt good. I didn't become aware that it was masturbation until i got older but even at that age i knew to not do that infront of people. Lost it at (barely) 14.

I voted no to masterbastion being a gateway to sex. I started masterbating when I was in middle school (about the same time I got my period for the first time) and I didn't have sex until 20, I'm 27 now and I've still only have sex with only 2 people.

My son masterbates and he's 3, I don't believe he knows what it is, but that it just feels good. I've been told that you aren't supposed to tell them not to do it, but to tell them that this isn't the time or the place. I wasn't sure what would work to get him to stop doing it in front of company so I tried the "Not the time or place" phrase, and he stopped while there were people around.

I am deathly afraid of having the sex talk with my kids. I don't know what to say really, or how to say it.

Which brings me to a new thought... Anyone see the movie "Definately Maybe" with Ryan Reynolds? In the begining there was a chaotic scene that the school taught the kids sex ed without telling the parents first and some of the lines the kids were using were HILARIOUS!
