Question
Hello, so i am 16 years old and I am somewhat embarrassed about how much I masturbate. I don't know how much masturbating is normal, I do it daily and sometimes even 2 times a day, I was just wondering if this is normal or if I should stop

Answer
Dear Daniel,

That amnount is a perfectly normal amnount for you.  Unless you were letting it interrupt your daily activities, I wouldn't worry about it.  If you are embarressed about it, only do it daily or a few times a week.  Hope this helps you!
