I thought this lecture was really intesting!! Not in the way many people would think. I think it is funny when people tell young children that if they do masterbate, it would fall off and hairs would appear on the palm of the hand. How are children going to learn anything from this message? To me children will only stop for a while then would discover it again. If we tell children that its bad, we are sending a bad image to them. Surely we are being hypocrites, if we are telling children not to do something that we have done during our lifes. 90% of us masturbation so why should we gave children the message thats its wrong to do it?
I think history has something to do with the way we look at masterburation. It was always seen as a bad thing to do let alone talk about it. History has shaped our attuide to this activity. If we had not be throughout history that this masturbation is wrong and that it was a good thing to do. I think we would maybe talk more about it.
In the lecture, people were stating what the other names are for masterbuation. It got me thinking the reason why boys have so many names for the activity. I think this is because boys will be more open and honest about masterbuation while the girls are a lot less open about it and wouldn't not share this information. All the stories that I have ever be told about masterbuation has come from boys that I went to school with, which consits of them telling each other when and how many times they have done it on a day to day basis's. Girls are less likely to talk on the subject, however i'm not saying we don't do it but we just don't openly talk about it! A lot of men masterbate names can be very violence names like pull the monkey where as female names are more playful and softer.

I think that lesson was very uncomfortable. And i think that people found it uncomfortable talking at this subject. This is because it meant to be a private thing. But i did find the lecture interesting for example the survey that was completed about masterbuation. I also think that it is easier for boys to talk about masterbuation that girls proebely because girls are more private that boys.
