My morning hotel bate

Thinking about our bate

So, I had the whole afternoon today to myself. And while I didn't masturbate (surprising, I know), I got to thinking about it. I wondered, "How many of us are open about our masturbation?"

I've always been quite open -- even back in college, when I said to my roommate on day one that I would most likely masturbate every day at least once. This freaked him out -- he was a religious fanatic who claimed only ever to have erections while he was in the actual act of heterosexual intercourse. Of course, we teased him mercilessly about this ridiculous statement.

But, really, how open are we? Do our closest friends know of our activities? Isn't it almost required that our friends know this about us, just as we would share our general sexuality with close friends, our likes and dislikes about food, drink, vacations?

Tonight I went for a beer here in Phoenix (I'm on business) and this guy started talking to me. He asked me what I was doing there -- I said that I just wanted to hang out a bit before I went back to my hotel to masturbate. One would have thought that I had suggested that he kill his own mother.

Most of my closest friends know of my masturbation habits -- I'm not beyond answering the phone and answering the question, "What are you doing?" honestly. Tell me: have you ever answered this way?

I challenge all my masturbation friends to think about this, and to tell a friend this week. You might have more of a kindred spirit than you know, or you might have the chance to show a close friend what this is all about.

Trying this out

With the demise of Bate Nation, this will be my new forum for musings on masturbation and the role it plays in my life.

Looking forward to connecting with former Bate Nation members, and others who just want to know more about a life dedicated to masturbating.

I can't promise a regular schedule of posting, nor any given theme. Will take requests, though!
