Angelina yes, because sex is a social need (my opinion) but nor a essential need

It seems difficult to be sure of it,as it can be different depending on the version of the pyramid,and as some scientists doubt of it...

      Vanessa It seems difficult to be sure of it,as it can be different depending on the version of the pyramid,and as some scientists doubt of it...

      yes of course, that's why i wrote that it's just my opinion. in general i don't think much of this pyramid because every human being would categorise needs differently.

          Do you still use it in your studies?

          If yes,what is your teachers' opinion about it?

              Vanessa Do you still use it in your studies?

              If yes,what is your teachers' opinion about it?

              I can only say whether it will be used in my studies after the start 😉

              my teacher used it, but he was also rather old-fashioned, modern economists are critical of it.

                  Angelina

                  It would be interesting to know if it is still mainly used,don't hesitate to tell us if it is the case after the start of your studies!😉

                      Vanessa

                      I will let you know, although there are also old-fashioned and modern professors, so I assume that opinions will be divided there as well.

                          Angelina I will let you know

                          Thank you!🙂

                          Possible,but there can be a main one.

                                Vanessa Possible,but there can be a main one.

                                maybe, although a friend of mine is at a university where there are almost only old professors and even among the 60+ professors the opinions are very divided. 😂

                                    Vanessa On this subject?Or more generally?

                                    I don't know exactly, we were just talking about this topic.

                                        Vanessa Let's hope your teachers would be more modern!😉

                                        I hope so too 🙂 although I would prefer a mixture to recognise the contrasts.

                                            We evolved to have sex and to masturbate as a species, not just for procreation, but recreation too, or else we wouldn't have been doing it for 10's of thousands of years until some men from the desert decided it is bad.

                                                advantages yes, i think so too but does that make it a need?

                                                    I think scientific fashion changes over time. Currently, positive aspects of masturbation are stressed, but the negatives (like compulsion, soreness/oedema, loss of time and social life etc) are still there.

                                                    A doctor will say there is nothing wrong with masturbation ...up to the point where it starts to interfere with yours or someone else's life.

                                                    😄 We've discussed this before, so all I'll say for sure is that my own health and happiness were increased greatly when I quit masturbation (or, more accurately, when I allowed myself to be prevented from it). I understand you have different view and experience and totally respect that.

                                                    Angelina advantages yes, i think so too but does that make it a need?

                                                    I think to the extent that sex brings us closer to others and serves to continue the species, it's definitely a need.

                                                    Masturbation, however, is by definition, a solitary activity. It's not needed at all and can go against getting out there, forming relationships, and living life!! 😃😃😃

                                                    That's what I found. Of course other people have other experiences and I respect this too.

                                                    Jonas Do people actually need to masturbate?

                                                    Here's a question:

                                                    If I feel horny is it better for me to go interact with my wife (in any way, doesn't have to be sexual) or for me to boot up porn and keep to myself until late at night?

                                                    An awful lot of people in the world are doing the latter! Is this healthy?

                                                    Jonas Surely no-one ever died from lack of orgasms?

                                                    Currently I am testing this theory... 😅
