[Anonymous No.12727787]

is masturbating /lit/? I don't understand why when I read even the most depressing books: Pessosa or Pavese's diaries, I don't read any mention of touching thy self? I mean im sure its not taboo but maybe they had other hedonistic pleasures to pursue?

And before you ask, yes I masturbate but im 19 so I blame my testorone for being flesh pilled. I'm hungry(college student) so I can't read have burnt out on writing some lines of poetry today and as I lay here on my bed alone,hungry and sweaty(dorm AC is broken) in this lonely night why shouldent I masturbate?

Most famous authors just purchased a woman instead of wanking

Being /lit/ is about having deep inner problems and trying to deal with how fucked up you are. Most common methods are
>Spousal abuse (both physical and psychological)
>Alcoholism
>Isolation
>Self Harm
>Fornication
>Violent outbursts
>Tobacco addiction
>Cocaine
>Suicide (the final redpill)
Masturbating is just creepy and weird.

This sounds stupid as shit, masturbation is apart of young adults and teens alike it only becomes an issue when your in your mid 20s masturbating 3 times a day for your dopamine release. Op is still a "teen" and most High Schoolers im sure your well aware most likely masturbate upwards of 4 times a day.

Brautigan wrote about it in Sombrero Fallout, it is a somewhat brutal passage. Great book.

Lock

An hour later the American humorist was so nervous that he could not open the front door to his apartment with the key. He was so nervous that he was almost sober. He couldn't believe this beautiful Japanese woman was standing beside him in the hall of his apartment house, waiting for him to open the door and then to go inside his apartment with him.
She Stood there very patiently watching him.
There was something wrong with the lock.
He Couldn't believe it.
God-damn fucking lock! Why now? Why me!
This had never happened before.
"It's the lock" he said fumbling with the key out of proportion to the actual situation.
She didn't say anything. That made it worse. He wished that she would say something. He didn't know then that the only time she ever said anything was when she had a specific thing to say. Then she was direct and very articulate. She never made small talk.
She was very intelligent, though, and had a great sense of humor but she just didn't talk very much. When other people were around, it always surprised them because she could go through and entire evening without saying a word. She only talked when she had something to say. She would listen very intelligently, nodding or shaking her head when subtle, intelligent points were made. She always laughed at precisely the right times.
She had a beautiful laugh which was like rain water pouring over daffodils made from silver. People like to say funny things around her because her laughter was so attractive.
When other people were talking, she stared directly at them with very narrow understanding eyes that listened to them as if they were the only sound left in the world, as if everything else that made sound had disappeared entirely from the human ear and their voice was all there was left.
Without saying a word, she gently took the key out of his hand. It was the first time they had ever touched which was the slightest gesture of a key exchanging hands. Her hand was small but had long slender fingers. There was a tremendous calm to her hands.
He had not touched her in the bar or on the way over to his apartment. This was the first of a million touches. She put the key softly and precisely into the lock. She turned the key. The door opened. She handed the key back to him and they touched hands for a second time. He thought that his heart would pound its way out of his body. This was the most erotic thing that had ever happened to him.

continued...

For a brief time after they had broken up he went through a period of masturbation. He used the image of her wordlessly taking the key from his hand and opening the door and then putting the key back in his hand as the theme for his masturbation.
He would come when she put the key back in his hand after opening the door. Then he would be lying there in bed with a puddle of sperm floating on his stomach like a strange Sargasso Sea. He did this five or six times. Then he gave it up because he realized that he could go on doing it indefinitely and it would be the end of him. He knew that life did not have a happy ending but he did not want to finish his that way.
It would be better for him if he blew his brains out rather than having his life be completed in the form of a masturbating shoji panel.
He spent one night crying hour after hour because he wanted to masturbate. He wanted to masturbate to her taking the key away, unlocking the door and then returning the key to him more than anything else in this world. Finally, he was exhausted from crying but he didn't masturbate. He had to stop no matter how much it hurt him because it would be the end of him. Once during his crying had a vision of what his tombstone would look like if he didn't stop masturbating to the touch of her hand, the remembered taking and returning of a key:

I'm fairly certain the most /lit/ sexual activity is wearing a chastity belt and eating your ex-wives feces after she's pounded you with a strap on for two hours straight.
