Are males proud of their ....

[_Yoda]

I don't know if I'm proud of my erect penis. But I do know that my erect penis is proud of me.

Glad to know it has its own personality!

Just so long as you don't let it think for you.

This is a profound statement, Paul. You make a very sound point here. I believe that the LDS Church does essentially teach both men AND women to be ashamed of their sexuality and their bodies. I was honestly glad that I had masturbated before I got married. If I hadn't, I would not have been able to communicate to my husband what felt good. There is nothing wrong with that! I think that the reason that some women, LDS women, in particular, have a difficult time reaching orgasm is due to lack of education.

Of course, I think that there is still an "old school" thought among the older brethren that women achieving orgasm is of no consequence as long as they can become pregnant.

I would like to see the whole masturbation rule abolished. It is stupid.

Quite contrary to my experience and actual LDS doctrine. Apparently, there is a survey that says this:

One survey indicated Mormon women experience more orgasms and are more satisfied with their married lives than non-Mormons.
