I can hardly believe this, but it's quite true.

I've commented before on how suprised I am at how old some guys are when they first masturbate, having been a rather early starter myself.

However, this takes the absolute cake.

It sounded at first like some sort of Urban Legend, but my cousin was very serious about this and her husband, the doctor mentioned below, confirmed it to me.

The doctor, my .... 'cousin in law'? had a new patient, a husband, who was concerned about his and his wifes difficulty in getting pregnant. This guy was EXTREMELY shy, to the point of being very, very reluctant to disrobe for a check-up. My cousin says the wife was extremely shy too. Far as they know, these two were raised in very, very repressed religious households, and the husband, at least, was homeschooled (note, I have nothing against home-schooling; it's a great thing, if hard to do in a secular way... most study courses are quite religious, in fac).

ANYway, long story short (too late!), these two couldn't get pregnant.

Husband turned out to have great sperm motility, etc.

Final diagnosis came after a long discussion with the husband.

My cousins husband was utterly stymied when he realized that 'sex' to this couple meant just rubbing genitallia together.

No insertion. Just... bumping uglies, frottage.

These were not some back-woods youth raised in a cellar; both have families, raised in small towns.

The husband, upon being told he actually had to stick his boner right up inside his wife, aparantly turned rather green and queasy upon the news.

I called 'bullshit' on this story but I know these two and I have to accept it as true.

Unbelievable. I can't begin to imagine how repressed both their parents must have been!

Thanks for the post. Yeah, pretty funny stuff!

Makes me feel a little better. I didn't first masturbate properly until I was close to 15 from my hazy memory. I used to just rub a bit, but never fast and hard enough!

How old were some of the late masturbaters that you heard about?

IF, if this story is true... then seriously now, maybe these people should not actually breed. I know that sounds harsh, but really now, if they are adults and still did not understand the impregnation process... I still am having trouble believing that two adults can be that far out of touch with their natural instincts.

This story is sad, but not so rare, I remember one day, a french radio broadcasted a report about sexuality, I heard an old lady saying "God could have found another way" ! religion and sex have never been friends, hypocrisy means "do it, but don't talk about it".

Religion kinda "mentally castrated" men and women, acknowledging than men cannot reproduce without orgasm, whereas women need no orgasm to make babies, and still today elimination of the clitoris is practiced in Egypt and some other countries. In France it is a serious crime and punished as such.

In my own family sex was taboo and never talked about. Period. I had to wait fourty years to see my youngest sister bare-breasted on a french beach.

Europe is much more liberal about public nudity than many modern countries, nobody complains when girls expose their breast on beaches, this began in the early 70's and extended over all beaches from Spain to Scandinavia.
