Is it safe to sit upright on the edge of the sofa and masturbate?

Discussion in 'Tilted Life and Sexuality' started by banwan, May 26, 2015.

    My two aims are

    1. Understand whether any male has ever sat on the edge of a sofa and ejaculated.

    2. In carrying out the process in 1 is it possible to tear your pelvic floor muscles due to sofa pressure preventing muscles between anus and scrotum moving at orgasm.

    Please refer back to the diagram I posted above.

    During orgasm, the vas deferens contracts to release sperm, and the corpus spongiosum tissue at the base of the penis contracts multiple times to force the sperm out of the urethra. So basically I guess your question is whether pressure applied to the corpus spongiosum tissue at the base of the penis during orgasm could cause it to tear. I would say no. This tissue is erectile tissue. That shit is tensile. It's also contracting like it's supposed to.

    You'd have to apply something much harder to the area to prevent the muscles from contracting. Even then, I don't know if you'd be able to stop them from contracting. You'd maybe have to apply some kind of vice to the entire base of your penis (not something I'd recommend). Even then, it sounds like a bit of a crapshoot.

    I don't see there being any reason for concern unless you're doing some crazy shit to your junk for "scientific purposes."

    Thank you for your intelligent and thoughtful response. Have any others got a view on this and indeed whether they have managed to safely masturbate whilst sitting on the edge of the sofa?

    Are fetishists always such tunnel visioned one-trick ponies?

    @banwan why don't you try it yourself and report back to us?

    Please only sensible replies. If you can feedback on tlthe dangers or if you know someone who has done this safely that would be great.

    A part of me suspects someone is masturbating furiously to this thread, though I'm uncomfortable speculating who.

    Please let us refocus. Has any male here ever sat on the edge of the sofa and masturbated?

    Refocused.

    Does it have to be a sofa? Is the word sofa important to this uh, exercise?

    Could the protagonist sit on the edge of a studio couch, divan, divano, setee, davenport, chaise, chesterfield, futon, bench, (self) love seat, or some similar piece, and masturbate?

    But why???
    Sure, sit on the edge of a toilet and jack off...you do that when you need privacy, just "have to" get off then and you don't want to be arrested (public) or embarrassed (family or friends)
    However, if you're alone (or with a patient partner)...why on the edge of a sofa?? (or any other sitting piece of furniture as @Lindy noted...IMHO a beanbag would be good...but that's just me)

    Why not lay back on the sofa, seems much more comfortable...better angle...when you cum, it goes straight up & down.
    Sitting on the edge...seems cramped, you don't get much stroking room (you're alone, use the space)...and you'll have to clean the carpet, unless you "catch it" with a cloth when you're finished.

    You gotta think about the dynamics, man.
    You're supposed to be enjoying yourself.
    (unless that's your kink dude...whatever gets you off)

    Me?
    If given the discretion...give me a way to lean back...a nice lazy boy or the chaise noted above.
    I want some backing and support too...I'm a big guy, I'm going to be there awhile.
    We need to do this right :cool:

    --------------------------

    Answer 1: Yes - someone has done so...but they didn't like it as much as another way.
    Answer 2: NO - I highly doubt someone has injured themselves this way.
    (**and any doctor would tell you to stop wasting their time with such foolish questions and they need to go get a gerbil out another patient's ass in Room 22)

    Yeah, great. Now it might be me as well.

    There are no dangers similar to the ones you've suggested.

    Why don't you do this yourself? Are you worried? It shouldn't be an issue.

    Can I just ask us all to pause for a moment and savor how awesome @Lindy is?

    Please try and not be judgemental. The first part of the question is whether any male has ever masturbated whilst sitting on the edge of the sofa. It is not whether this is a position that you like or what your perceived comfort of the position is. People masturbate in many different ways that you may not appreciate. Some kneel to masturbate, some stand, some lie between two chairs face down and masturbate. Some sit bolt upright with a dildo wedged up inside their anus and masturbate. I could go on and on, masturbation is not just about reclining in a lazy heap and hoping for the best.

    The second part of the question is whether this act is dangerous in terms of exerting too much pressure on the area between the anus and scrotum where the muscles involved in ejaculation are located, thereby causing them to tear at orgasm because they are not free to move due to the pressure.

    Someone just whack it on the couch for this guy and let us know if your taint exploded after.

    Why don't you? Do you think there is a danger? Why ask others to do it if you think it's safe?

    I have an idea:

    Let's quit responding to this thread.

    The circular redundancy is getting very old.

    No
    Why don't you??
    And why ask others on a message board?

    If it's THAT unsafe...It's like asking someone of they've ever played russian roulette
    OR knowing it's unsafe and still asking the question anyway.

    So by your line of questioning of the members of our quaint board, the results are either arbitrary or instigating...and can be categorized as one of the three:
    1. The question is moot
    2. The question is absurd
    3. The question is dangerous

    No judgment.
    Whack off all you want.
    Anyway you want.
    We encourage this here.
    Have fun. :)

    BUT, don't ask others about dangerous things. (EVEN if unlikely)
    Unless you are willing to do it yourself.
    And even, then we DO discourage and oppose this.
    So don't.
    And don't ask others.

    But then that's why they have The Darwin Awards

    OR you're a standard troll...and we're humoring you because we haven't got bored yet.
    (and I'm willing to type to take up some time waking up this morning...)
    or we're plying our own typing talents and practicing our witty replies. (it does take some skill & practice to entertain the masses...)

    Now I've got things to do...had my fill.
    Whacked twice myself. (no explosions, other than the expected and healthy standard)
    And others can take over if they want to continue the feeding of the line.
    I've done my tapdance.
    It was vigorous workout...which I'm talking about, I'll let you figure out.

    But we know Russian roulette is dangerous. That's not analogous to my question in the slightest. Nobody knows whether sitting on the edge of the sofa and masturbating is dangerous. The question is whether anyone has done it and whether they did it safely. I don't care that you sit in a lazy heap masturbating and I'm not trying to get you to masturbate in any other way. I'm trying to get answers from people who have done this and whether it is safe.

    This is the problem. You don't understand how ejaculation works (despite my explaining it above). The muscles involved in ejaculation aren't located between the anus and scrotum. They're located within the scrotum and in the base of the penis. Sitting on the edge of a couch/sofa, therefore, has little or no impact on the effect of ejaculation.
