It doesn’t harm his libido

Here’s a myth the Velvet Co folks busted for us: that masturbating kills sexual desire. In some couples, there’s a no-masturbation or minimal-masturbation rule specifically for the men. The idea behind it is often that, the more a man masturbates, the less he’ll feel like having sex with his partner. But studies have actually found that regular masturbation has actually very little effect on a man’s testosterone levels (which play a big role in his sex drive). If your man seems to be so addicted to masturbation that he chooses it over sex with you, that’s a problem, but don’t fear if he helps himself a few times a week that he won’t desire you when sexy time comes around.
