Anti-masturbation myths did not come from primitive humans and their paranoia. They came from the machinations of psychopathic and brutally smart men, who, like a seeing man in the land of the blind, found themselves among humans who could be easily manipulated and controlled. In fact, this very metaphor comes from religion.
[I]n the street of the totally blind, the one-eyed man is called clear-sighted, and the infant is called a scholar. Midrash Rabbah
Inter caecos, regnat strabus. In regione caecorum rex est luscus. (Among the blind the squinter reigns. In the country of the blind, one-eyed man is king.) Proverbs quoted by Desiderius Erasmus, Adagiorum Chiliades, 1514. (Thousand Proverbs)
Masturbation and sex have taboos why? Because it is the strongest urge all humans have – that’s how evolution works. Knowing that everyone does it and thinks about sex and has urges makes this the perfect act to prohibit, universal sin, since everyone is therefore guilty, and everyone who is brain sodomized therefore seeks out repentance in the loving arms of religion. It is the first act of denial of your independence and agency, the first law that objectifies you and places you under the yoke of tyrannical people.
Whose morality? Tyrant morality! This act of mental control and hypocrisy is everywhere – while they decry how it is wrong to ban the wearing of burqas, instruments of oppression of women and children and foreigners who don’t care to veil their hair or the locals who don’t care to be brain sodomized, they have no problem supporting irrational laws banning nudity on beaches or public spaces, or laws that prohibit service to shirtless men or those not wearing shoes. It’s one or the other – reason or insanity – but spare us the hypocrisy.
Look at this little beautiful child, now hand me a pair of scissors so I may cut off a part of its penis or labia, and then wrap it up under veils and taboos and make it feel guilty for masturbating or being rough and tumble or choosing dolls or trucks or any other host of social and religious oppressive engineering bullshit these maniacs love to do. Always obsessing over sex, children and trauma, rape and pedophiles, meanwhile they are the ones both talking about it and doing it.
Just look at today for example. Consider the paranoia about sex. Sex has become something so terrible and dangerous that on college campuses we are expected to believe that a man who even looks at a woman for too long is a monster and a criminal. Feminists realised how to win power over “patriarchy” the same way as the religious authorities have won power over the religious – by controlling the narrative about sex and sexuality, procreation, bodies and masturbation. They have made sexuality yet again a demonic force, perverts lurking everywhere, and a new Taliban of paranoia enforcing illiberal rules while proclaiming themselves progressive.
Thus you find sexual harassment described as “Any look, glare, stare, peering, any comment, any action, whether actual, or implied or intended, fully or partially, that makes another person uncomfortable and is of a sexual nature.”
That’s how dangerous it is that somehow your action, or implied action!!! can rape someone just by making them feel uncomfortable.
Sex is in fact the original sin: Adam is male and Eve is female. Forbidden fruit is the vulva, vagina, and the serpent is the trouser snake. You can see how sex is at the core of all religious mind control – once they eat from the forbidden fruit, their adolescence is over, they are kicked out of paradise – an allegory for the ignorance and naivety of childhood. This is why childbirth is brought up as punishment because becoming pregnant means one has left childhood and now has to provide for dependents and must confront the suffering of life.
It is also revealing of the alpha primate paranoia. Studies into alpha males in chimpanzee society that measured levels of stress found that the alpha male had more than double the stress of the lowest ranked male. His sexual instinct and paranoia that anyone else would mate with the females is so strong, that he rather lives in a state of non-stop stress, anxiety and fear of being deposed (not to mention what he had to do to become the alpha male) than to be lower ranked and denied sex.
The inheritance humans get from this earlier time in our development rationalizes (one half of brain has instinct, the other creates meaning) this as the sexual wantonness of the woman, and thus seeks to limit female sexuality. It’s not that other men might copulate with the female, it’s that the female is so sexually loose and perverted, this primitive male anxiety goes, that SHE is the one who is temped by the serpent, the one who compels Adam to eat when he didn’t want to, the one who destroys paradise, the one exploring the woods bumping into strange “serpents.”
You can see how this story is both an axiomatic structure that establishes sex as something utterly dangerous and paradise-shattering, and something that villifies the female and establishes the ground for the control of women.
However, we find Solomon with many wives. Abraham with concubines. Arabic sheiks with 1000 wives in their harems. At that point you can even employ a Marxist criticism – taboos around sex and sexuality are for the common man only; the “alpha” males are exempt, of course, god having no problem with them fathering 1/8 of all the men of Asia (Ghenghis Khan, who raised entire cities, one city had 100,000 men and boys killed by sword, all their women becoming his property.)
This is a primitive anxiety by the powerful men who – as an inheritance of the alpha male primate competition – found political and religious ways to limit access to mating and sexuality, and in so doing expanded their own power and evolutionary potential. This is why the gay ones are “celibate”, so as to project an aura of purity, even their savior entering the world in the most unnatural way possible – rape of Mary by the “holy spirit” – and somehow that is pure and preferred over the act of husband and wife having sex. Logische!
There is nothing sinful or immoral or evil or wrong about masturbation or consensual sex. Don’t let people tell you otherwise.
