Misread the title of the other post which made me think of this question.

I, as a male, have had multiple women ask me how we ride bikes without smashing our balls.

In high school a female classmate asked me: "Do you masturbate?", and I answered "I don't need to answer you that." Well, I was actually uncomfortable by the fact that most people my age likely did, but I actually did not because I found masturbating disgusting. I thought they would think I was too odd for not masturbating lol

in 6th grade we'd go around asking the girls "do you masticate?". most would answer indignantly "no, that's disgusting!". then we'd ask them why they swallow ther food whole, like a snake.

ok, we were assholes

You were 6th graders.

I found it super uncomfortable to answer that in high school.

Then in my 20s, I'd go, "Yeah haha I guess I do."

And now my 30s, "I jag off twice a day. Three times on a good day!"

And every time, id get the same kinda approved nod.

Either masturbation has become normalized or I just give jerk off vibes.

Are people still asking you whether you masturbate in your 30s??

That’s what my ol’ man calls my chastity belt

If you would have said "no" I'm sure they just wouldn't have believed you. I was asked that question and said no because I was embarrassed. They didn't believe me.

I got asked that by a gaggle of 18 yo boys while I was waiting on an elevator in boot camp, trying to embarrass me or something since I was quiet. I looked at them weirdly and said, "Of, course", like they had just asked if I breathed air. The elevator opened just then and I walked in and though I didn't get to see their faces, they didn't get in. It's small victories over bullies like that that made me realize bullies are weak AF.
