Asking for thighbands

Jonas

If it is voluntary,I agree with you.If the one masturbating excessively admit it's a problem,and think an help to stop/reduce it would be useful,a chastity cage/belt can be a good idea.

Even if,at least at first,one of the main question would be "How can I manage to masturbate while wearing this?'!

Max9

I guess with not tight pants,it can stay discreet,yes.

Angelina

I think it can be possible,yes,but with care to not resume doing it excessively.

Angelina

I agree(except for smoking,alcohol and drugs).With enough care to not resume the addictions,it should be adapted after some time.For gambling,for example,if the addiction is solved,it could be possible to go to a casino with only 100€/$ in the pocket,with no other way to get more tokens(credit card,etc...).Even better if someone accompany the gambler and keep any money he can win over 100€/$.This way,the gambler would never be able to gamble for more 100€/$.When he/she has no money left,he/she should leave;even if he/she has gained 100€/$ before,he/she can't use these to continue gambling.

Jonas

Anyway,you're the only one who know what work best for you!

Vanessa I agree(except for smoking,alcohol and drugs).With enough care to not resume the addictions,it should be adapted after some time.For gambling,for example,if the addiction is solved,it could be possible to go to a casino with only 100€/$ in the pocket,with no other way to get more tokens(credit card,etc...).Even better if someone accompany the gambler and keep any money he can win over 100€/$.This way,the gambler would never be able to gamble for more 100€/$.When he/she has no money left,he/she should leave;even if he/she has gained 100€/$ before,he/she can't use these to continue gambling.

yes, that's true, although I would also apply the whole thing at least to alcohol and cigarettes as well.

Jonas Should she get a belt for him then?

No, he should be interested more in sex with her than in masturbation. I thought it's obvious.

Jonas I'm afraid I think the availability of internet porn is changing people's behaviour and choices.

in this case, however, education has failed. those who can no longer distinguish between porn and reality need a psychiatrist and not a chastity belt.

Angelina Well, yeah. Thankfully people are starting to see the problem and deal with it before it gets to that stage.

Angelina The problem is that people do know that this is not real, but still get ideas and aims that are inspired by porn. For example polyamory - in porn, you can see it pretty frequently and in reality, it's now also getting popular ... there might really be a connection.

Jonas Thankfully people are starting to see the problem and deal with it before it gets to that stage.

i see it a little differently. most of the time these people don't see the problem, so the expectations during sex become higher and higher and the disappointments bigger and bigger. it could also lead to sexual crimes.

Max9 The problem is that people do know that this is not real, but still get ideas and aims that are inspired by porn

Inspiration is perfectly ok, but there should be no false expectations.

Jonas I've found that a belt has to have a certain level of security

Of course,but it does not avoid thinking on a way to cheat on it,I think.

But I can understand you feel and react differently.

Angelina

Alcohol,at least,is a bit different.Even after years without drinking,even a sip of alcohol can make an ex-alcoholic addicted again(it is why even syrup against cough,which often contains very small quantities of alcohol,are often not recommended for people who were addicted to alcohol).I think cigarettes can work the same,but am not totally sure about it.

Jonas

I don't think it is the majority of the cases.

Angelina Inspiration is perfectly ok, but there should be no false expectations.

I agree.

Vanessa Alcohol,at least,is a bit different.Even after years without drinking,even a sip of alcohol can make an ex-alcoholic addicted again

maybe, but i wouldn't generalise, here too i would differentiate from case to case.

Jonas I'm afraid I think the availability of internet porn is changing people's behaviour and choices

You mean a guy would prefer his left hand than his girlfriend?

I don't normally criticize what others do but as I almost slipped and fell on ice today I must say that anything that could cause someone to fall and break their teeth should not even be legal.

Megan
We should ban the ice! Ice just for soft drinks!

Jonas

i think those thoughts are bad, i think it's bad that some men have to take refuge in pronos, that shouldn't be the case for anyone, i think there is a suitable partner for everyone and everyone deserves their own happiness

Angelina i think it's bad that some men have to take refuge in pronos

Yep, absolutely. Like all addictions porn reduces people to mindless automata, endlessly repeating the same (self and life destructive) behaviours over and over again. I think the trick is to work out how to help such people and to support them as they try to help themselves.

Angelina i think there is a suitable partner for everyone and everyone deserves their own happiness

That's lovely. I agree.

Jonas . I think the trick is to work out how to help such people and to support them as they try to help themselves.

right, and maybe even a chastity belt will help (even if that would not be my first "form of therapy").
