As if you can control your sexual mind... You cannot control your thoughts.... period.

Yes, you can control your actions (don't know about masturbation lol).

No one should be ashamed about being sexual. Why do we have a penis then?

Shame and guilt only cause suffering.

I don't think male sexuality as whole is shamed; in fact I think at times it is overemphasized. What I think is shamed are the parallels to the slut shaming of women, specifically the tenets of objective attraction and how they play an overacrhing role in our pursuit of relationships.

Read a news paper, depicting current events rather than Googling topics. THis way one can better understand that this is 2020

Harvey Weinstein

Bill Cosby

Jeffrey Epstein


25 Years ago these men would not have been up on charges, they would have gotten a pat on the back and a thumbs up. Not only by their peers; but from law enforcement. There is nothing shameful about sexuality, however anything done to an excess; or that intentionally harms others , all for the sake of sexual conquest is wrong

The OP used the term shame, one has to have a conscious to feel shame. Society has done so much to liberate man from the guilt of shame, it has little meaning any more. Robing / stealing someone, so what. Impregnating someone and walking away , so what. Abandoning ones family , so what .

Desire / urges are a part of human existence. Suppression of urges / just saying no is a part of human evolution

I am so very glad you added this last little clause, as it's almost a thesis of mine when it comes to the disparity and frustrations that exist between male and female sexual behaviors and choices.
As I said earlier, I dont think men's sexuality itself is shamed on a comparable level with women, but I think there are certain aspects of sexuality, particularly when it comes to preference and choice, that we are constantly compelled to suppress or just say no to for the good of human evolution that women are not only not, but quite often encouraged to indulge in with no similar concern or care for human evolution. So in that i reiterate, in that I dont think men's sexuality is shamed, but rather the consequences of said sexual actions and choices are much more readily and opportunistically identified as barriers to our species' progression.
