In the beginning...
I had been masturbating long before I could ejaculate. The earliest recollection I have of masturbating was around age 7. I experienced my first orgasm at about 11. I ran around with a group of guys from the neighborhood, the oldest being 15. Like most kids we engaged in a lot of sexual games. The older kid liked to fondle my penis. At that age my penis was a bit larger than most my age, and I liked how it felt. That was my first orgasm. After that I began masturbating almost every day. And then one day....
WOW! It was about 2 months after my 13th birthday. I was attending a little country school. I had to use the bathroom one day, and while peeing, I began playing with my penis — and lo and behold, I had what I now call "a great purple throbber." I masturbated and experienced my first ejaculation of semen. I thought, I can do what the big boys can do! At school the next day I was thinking about what I had done the day before and began to have an erection. I wondered if I could do it again, so I excused myself and went to the bathroom again. Yeah, it still worked, and that was only the beginning.
My escape....
Masturbation at the time was my escape from a not very happy home life. I began masturbating regularly at least 3 times a day — more often than not, 4 to 5 times a day, depending on the situation. I would masturbate before getting out of bed. I would masturbate at school in the boys' bathroom. I would masturbate when I got home from school, and I would masturbate again after going to bed. It seemed like I couldn't get enough! I had favorite places to masturbate — especially out in the woods behind our house. I had many little hidden spots where I liked to get nude and lie back on a moss-covered log and "do it."
Then there were my friends....
They are known now as "J.O. buddies." I had many in those days. My first experience with masturbating and ejaculating in front of another was with Dennis. Dennis was 17. We had many masturbation sessions. In the woods, in the barn, in the chicken house. I was also masturbating regularly with another friend. Jerry was not able to ejaculate yet. Then one he said, "Hey, I can [ejaculate] all over myself now!" He proceeded to show me, and we masturbated together many times until he turned 16 (girls made their appearance about then). There was also the "circle jerk." There were many of these; they started before I turned 14. The oldest guy in our group was 18. We would gather in groups of 5 or 6 (sometimes 7) in a barn or out in the woods. It always seemed like it was more of a contest to see who had the biggest penis, who could ejaculate first, and who could sheet semen the furthest. This went on through junior and senior high school and beyond.
As for now....
I may not masturbate as often as I once did; I average 4 to 5 times a week, sometimes more. I'm not into masturbating in bed but prefer to masturbate in the living room. I live alone, so that's not a problem.
I like to masturbate early in the morning. I recline on the couch and begin by engaging in foreplay (to me this is a very important part of masturbating, unless you like a "quickie") for at least half an hour before I get down to serious business. By the time I'm at that stage, my penis is oozing "pre-cum." I may bring myself to the brink of orgasm several times before I'm ready to ejaculate. When I do, it's usually mind-blowing. I can get very vocal when I reach orgasm — and when I do, my back arches and I do the old eyes-roll-back-in-the-head routine. I always ejaculate on my stomach. I love it! I don't ejaculate as much semen as I once did, but the sensation is still the same as when I was a teenager. I do a lot of hiking and camping and especially like to masturbate out in the wilderness. There's something about the feeling of the hot sun on my naked body with a gentle breeze wafting by.
In conclusion....
This is only part of the story; I have many more experiences to relate. Masturbation has played a very important role in my life over the years. There is no better tranquilizer on earth. It's a healthy practice that no one should feel guilty about. It gives me great pleasure.
