Question: At what age did you start pleasing yourself? Do you remember when it was that you first began to please yourself?

I was 15 years old at that time, and for a boy of that age, it was truly naive. I had no idea what I was doing at all. I was really itchy down there, so I scratched. The relief from the itching was really good. But the next second, I ejaculated, and it covered my whole body. A few minutes later, I ejaculated again, and since then, it has never stopped. How about you?

I started doing this when I was about 13 years old. At that time, I began to be interested in sex, but things weren't all great at the beginning.

So far, I have received almost no sexual education or guidance from my parents. Therefore, when I suddenly began to find women attractive and yearn to see them in various undressed states, I had no idea what this meant at all.

I once briefly came across and watched some online pornographic content. Around that time, my parents finally explained to me what sex is and what God's plan for sex is.

Thank goodness, I remember that my initial fantasies and masturbation were centered around an imagined marriage, rather than some improper scenarios. I remember that in that fantasy, there was a very unrealistic part - that it was only after five years of marriage that I would have sex with my imagined wife! I don't know why. Maybe I thought that sexual intercourse would automatically lead to pregnancy, and many couples don't have children until several years after marriage?

Anyway, I was obviously very naive at that time! So naive that I had no idea what would happen next. The book my parents taught me said that the feeling of sex was wonderful, and touching an erect penis felt wonderful! I thought that was all. At that time, I didn't realize there was more until one day, while taking a bath, I imagined having sex with my future wife, touching for a longer time than usual, and then a strange and intense feeling welled up in my heart. I had no idea what had happened. I vaguely remember being very scared, thinking I had hurt myself! But this feeling soon disappeared, and I felt much better. I even thought the feeling was quite good! I don't remember if I ejaculated the first time because I was taking a bath at the time, and ejaculation might have been washed away. I might not have known to look for it either!

This was not my best start, but it wasn't the worst either! Although pornography was one of the ways I initially encountered sexual experiences and sexual concepts, God mercifully prevented it from corrupting my view of sex. Instead, it led me to respect it as a beautiful, precious, intimate and sacred part of His creation. In this way, He greatly blessed me!
