If you have the ability to love, love yourself first.
Because you yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
Masturbation is a meditation on self-love. So many of us are afflicted with self-loathing, bad body images, shame about our body functions, and confusion about sex and pleasure.
I recommend an intense love affair with yourself
Physics is to mathematics what sex is to masturbation
The only shame in masturbation is the shame of not doing it well.
