What Are You Thinking About?

[jut703]

How do you maximize a Samsung Gear S2? Got one as a gift and I love it but I don't know if I've made the most out of it already.

Right now it just tells the time, and lets me know if I have any new notifications.

Si bro dreamur ba yung mahilig din sa mga smartwatch?

Happy news! Masturbation actually has health benefits Happy news! Masturbation actually has health benefits

Conduct an Internet search for “masturbation,” and you will find hundreds, if not thousands, of slang phrases for the act.

This proliferation of slang phrases suggests people want to talk about masturbation, but are uncomfortable about doing so directly. Using comedic terms provides a more socially acceptable way to express themselves.

So before we talk any more about it, let’s normalize it a bit. Masturbation, or touching one’s own genitals for pleasure, is something that babies do from the time they are in the womb. It’s a natural and normal part of healthy ***ual development.

According to a nationally representative US sample, 94% of men admit to masturbating, as do 85% of women. But societal perspectives of masturbation still vary greatly, and there’s even some stigma around engaging in the act.

Related to this stigma are the many myths about masturbation, myths so ridiculous it’s a wonder anyone believes them.

They include: masturbation causes blindness and insanity; masturbation can make ***ual organs fall off; and masturbation causes infertility.

In actual fact, masturbation has many health benefits.

Good for you

For women, masturbation can help prevent cervical infections and urinary tract infections through the process of “tenting,” or the opening of the cervix that occurs as part of the arousal process.

Tenting stretches the cervix, and thus the cervical mucous. This enables fluid circulation, allowing cervical fluids full of bacteria to be flushed out.

Masturbation can lower risk of type-2 diabetes (though this association may also be explained by greater overall health), reduce insomnia through hormonal and tension release, and increase pelvic floor strength through the contractions that happen during orgasm.

For men, masturbation helps reduce risk of prostate cancer, probably by giving the prostate a chance to flush out potential cancer-causing agents.

Masturbation also improves immune functioning by increasing cortisol levels, which can regulate immune functioning in small doses. It also reduces depression by increasing the amount of endorphins in the bloodstream.

Masturbation can also indirectly prevent infertility by protecting people from ***ually transmitted infections (STIs) that can lead to infertility – you can’t give yourself one of these infections!

There is one final benefit to masturbation: it’s the most convenient method for maximising orgasms.

And there are plenty of additional benefits from orgasms generally, including reduced stress, reduced blood pressure, increased self-esteem, and reduced pain.

Good for your partner too

From a ***ual health point of view, masturbation is one of the safest ***ual behaviors. There’s no risk of pregnancy or transmission of ***ually transmitted infections; there’s no risk of disappointing a partner or of performance anxiety; and there’s no emotional baggage.

And, only an arm’s length away, is mutual masturbation. Mutual masturbation (two partners who are pleasuring themselves in the company of the other) is a great (and safe) activity to incorporate into other partnered ***ual activities.

It can be especially good to begin to learn more about what your partner likes and to demonstrate to your partner what you like. Open communication with a partner will improve your *** life and relationship, but is also important for modeling communication skills for younger generations.

Talking about masturbation also has benefits. Promoting ***-positive views in our own homes and in society, including around masturbation, allows us to teach young people healthy behaviors and attitudes without stigma and shame.

Parents and guardians who feel embarrassed or need extra guidance to do this should seek out ***-positive sources of information, like ones from respected universities. – Rappler.com

After recording our youngest kid's 2nd grade concert, the wife isn't happy with recording video on her smartphone. Now, she wants a 1080p HD camcorder. Looks like I'll be looking around for an HD camcorder with excellent video quality and good low-light performance.

It's been a while since I saw unleaded gas at $1.69/gal. That would be ~PhP 21.36/liter

A DSLR can also serve as occasional 1080p video recorder.

But if you're going with the camcorder route, might as well go for a 4K recorder?

My entry-level Canon DSLR EOS Rebel doesn't have a video function (took decent flash-less photos though). I want something decent yet cheap so I won't shed a tear if it breaks. 1080p should be enough. A Canon Vixia HF R600 ($200) sounds about right.

Bought a new arrival polo shirt worth 2k pesos
and suddenly after 3 months I see the same shirt in the same store with a price tag 30% less than the original price.


Driving through a rough road after cleaning your car is plain stupid.

6 died yesterday at tagaytay aboard a vios that hit a concrete barrier and a tree. I wonder how fast you have to be to set a car in flame. and the news said 6 was burned alive and died so I'm assuming no escaped. and 6 people in a vios, isn't that overloaded?

Saw the news clip too, puro teenagers ang sakay.

6 pax? 2 in front 4 sa likod, masikip pero ubra naman.

Baka nawalan ng malay after the impact? then car burst into flame.

it was around 2am and witness said it was driving fast and wayward. it's overloaded, fast and I think wayward might be because they were drunk. surely a recipe for disaster.

Why trike drivers insist on driving on the inner lane of the national highway, like this one this morning south bound of Maharlika Highway in Pozzorubio.

are you referring to inner lane, same lane ng mga car? If yes, kung may obstacle on the outer lane (rightmost lane) kailangan pa ni manung tricycle driver to change to inner lane.di bale ng maabala ang ibang motorista basta hwag lang sya.

[benchman]

those trikes and kuligligs; the most cause of head-on collisions. impatient car drivers overtakes them(kahit alanganin) then, boom!

[jut703]

Which brings to light the issue - why do people still park their cars on the second lane of the national highway?

Parang sinementohan lang ng gobyerno yung garahe nung mga nakatira along the highway. This is particularly annoying along MacArthur.

I remember 2 days after graduation me and my friends were in a convoy on the way to tagaytat. I was in a gen 1 expedition following a land cruiser. I was overtaking a small truck on the left and then the truck fishtailed. I ended up the in the gravel on the other side of the road. I was probably going around 80ish then so I fishtailed too but got it back in control.

That was kinda scary and still keeps me awake sometimes.

Kasi walang asphalt yung nasa right lane 😃. Kasama na din nga yung mga obstacles dun. It's either those or di lang talaga well educated/informed yung mga drivers.
