people have been demonizing it for most of the AD years i think but it’s quite pleasant really. are there any proven negative effects?

    Christianity I can understand, but would you mind explaining why you think feminism demonizes masturbation?

        See, that’s really interesting to me! The mainstream feminist spaces I’ve interacted with have been very sex-positive, so I’m curious how you’ve experienced this demonization.

        Not really.

        Feminism embraces openness in society, including walking your own path.

        If that includes deviating from cis male sexuality, then yes, feminism does indeed allow that to happen, if it happens naturally. In other words: feminism does not force you to take part in the toxic masculinity circlejerk.

        In that way, yes, feminism probably reduces the amount of “male sexuality” which is basically toxic masculinity in the world. But it does not force that change, instead, it lets it happen.
