Not sure if you're serious about it being behind you, but if you are, I would strongly suggest that you make an appointment with a doctor and get that checked out.

Seriously!

That means 70% of men don't know how to find the clitoris.

Maybe its just me, but who in the world has trouble finding the clitoris? There are only so many interesting parts down there and it seems like that particular feature is pretty prominent and, when touched, causes the appropriate reaction...I think communication is the problem, not the locations of the clitoris....


Women need to take responsibility for their own orgasms; so men, please pay attention!!!!

How many of you guys were told that you would go blind? Or was that an Orthodoxy warning??

This may help...

Taken from 'Young Women Manual 2 Lesson 33; The Sacred Power of Procreation, which is taught to 12 - 18 girls.

Sometimes young people do not understand the specific definitions of words they hear describing immorality. If questions arise during the discussion, you may want to use the following definitions given by President Spencer W. Kimball.

Masturbation: To sexually stimulate oneself. “Masturbation … is not approved of the Lord nor of his Church, regardless of what may be said by others whose ‘norms’ are lower” (Spencer W. Kimball, President Kimball Speaks Out [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1981], p. 10).

Homosexuality: “‘Sexual desire for those of the same sex or sexual relations between individuals of the same sex,’ whether men or women” (Spencer W. Kimball, The Miracle of Forgiveness [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1969], p. 78).

Adultery: Sexual intercourse with someone other than one’s own lawful husband or wife.

Fornication: Sexual intercourse by the unmarried (see President Kimball Speaks Out, pp. 10, 12).

Necking: Passionate kissing and intimate contact (see President Kimball Speaks Out, p. 8).

Petting: “Fondling of the private parts of the body for the purpose of sexual arousal” (President Kimball Speaks Out, p. 8).
“We look to not only the spiritual but also the temporal, and we believe that a person who is impoverished temporally cannot blossom spiritually.”

I know a bishop who asked an 11 year old if he was masturbating and had to explain what masturbation was to the kid for him to even understand the question.


Call Child Protective Services and report it. The bishop can answer a few questions to the proper authorities for child abuse. The Church has had long enough to mess with the sexual lives of far too many young boys. The time is coming when the government will step in. Either the church stops this practice or face arrest, fines, and prison.

I get an error when I try to vote. I tried two browsers and two computers!

What's up with that? Shades?

I never got asked by my bishop, but I did confess to him after 2 years of self loathing. After that he asked me once, and I was too ashamed to admit that I couldn't stop, so I just said it was cleared up. He never asked again.

I confessed to my mission president too and he just told me it was a very typical problem and to try my best to keep my thoughts and deeds pure, and then he gave me a blessing.

I think I had pretty progressive church leaders.

I do know that the bishop of the other ward in the building would ask his youth, because they were always talking about how uncomfortable it was in interviews.

I'm going to admit something. Every time I glance at the title of this thread I see: "Did the bishop ever ask you to masturbate?" Then I have to re-read and "oh yeah" it.
