Seattle Minister Says Masturbation Is Kinda Gay. And Not Just If You’re Doing It To Another Guy
Pastor Mark Driscoll of Seattle’s Mars Hill Church has a pretty interesting take on masturbation: Unlike some Fundamentalist preachers, he doesn’t think it’s automatically sinful. He’s down with a husband knocking one out if he’s away from his wife, for example.
But in his brochure Porn-Again Christian: A Frank Discussion on Pornography & Masturbation for God’s Men, Driscoll warns that polishing the bishop can lead to trouble—like making you gay.
Masturbation can be a form of homosexuality because it is a sexual act that does not involve a woman. If a man were to masturbate while engaged in other forms of sexual intimacy with his wife then he would not be doing so in a homosexual way. However, any man who does so without his wife in the room is bordering on homosexuality activity, particularly if he’s watching himself in a mirror and being turned on by his own male body.

Who masturbates in front of a mirror watching their own body?I think he’s revealing more about his technique, than commenting in general.
He might well fantasise about Jesus’ hot body whilst he bangs one out, but most hets I know are thinking about a female – even when there are mirrors in the room.
This is why think christianity is laughable.

“…particularly if he’s watching himself in a mirror and being turned on by his own male body.” Oh, poor guy! This happened to him, and now he can’t sleep because he wonders if he’s gay? And he applies his distraught onto every other man? How’s that for turning something that’s totally unimportant into a problem.

Whereupon we celebrate the inherent heterosexuality of masturbating transsexuals…
In Jesus’ name.

He’s such a fool. Obviously he has jacked off by looking at himself in the mirror and gets turned on. I’ve never gotten turned on looking at myself naked. Who does that? What an ego he must have that he would get turned on by his own body. Yuck. I do wonder sometimes when I am on a web cam site and there are str8 guys, and they let you know they’re str8. They keep asking if girls are viewing them. There usually never are. They will stroke their big hard erection for hours. It just seems weird to me for a str8 guy to get so into their erection almost like a gay guy. I wonder if they are enjoying it so much because they like playing with such a huge erection (some of them are really big), or only because it feels good to their penis?

My school was so repressed, I honestly thought I was the only guy who masturbated. Accusing someone of doing it was the most major putdown imaginable. It didn’t occur to me until years later that, of course, they were all doing it as well; but when I did it I just felt like a pervert.
