What surprises me is how many of them really want - and expect - to be told, "No, no - you're fine. It wasn't." Because otherwise they'll feel bad.I'm glad we found a way to make even THIS about us.
Apparently grown men need to be taught that it's not nice to masturbate in front of women (who are not consensual sex partners)

asking "Was that thing I did sexual harrassment?"
Guys, if you're asking - yes it was.
Tiffany Haddish said it perfectly on SNL last night: "Men, if you've got your thing-thing out and she's got all her clothes on, you're wrong!"

Unless you are a stripper...
Unless you are a stripper...
Yeah, no. Strippers don't get fully naked.
Right, and strip clubs don't allow masturbation. If you can't meet the minimum standards in general public that a strip club expects you to follow, you're really doing something wrong.
... and that they need it.
That is the REALLY crazy part! Some men are acting like not masturbating in front of colleagues (who are not consensual sex partners)/in public, or refraining from grinding their crotches into some womens' shoulder/ or not masturbating into potted plants is like...some highly nuanced, very complex behavioral standard. Seriously? Is this what they learn at home?
Wow, Johnny! You went a whole day without exposing yourself to someone and whacking off. Have a cookie.
Seriously, I do remember this approach being used with some "troublesome" little boys in grade school. Not re whacking off, but they'd be praised and rewarded for going a whole day without kicking or hitting someone or for going a whole day without being otherwise a jerk. "Bobby has been sooooo good today we're going to let him choose the book I read to the class after lunch," and so on.
I imagine this does teach some boys that simply behaving normally (by restraining their little ids in an age-appropriate manner) is amazingly laudatory. Note, this may have ticked off the boys in my class who generally behaved well as much as it did the girls.
We're not letting Donald play games with sticks any more because people get hurt. But here's a star for his Good Behaviour Chart."Donny, you made it another week without starting a nuclear war! Go play another round of golf."

Okay, now I have an image of a sort of Simpsonesque scene (like the one where Bart is doing lines on the board in the opening credits). A boy (or man) writing, "No one wants to see your penis" 100 times.
I was about to share this on my twitter, but then I realized that strip clubs DO allow cat calls and some pretty disgusting language. So I think that bar is still too low.
This is fine, but I just think they shouldn't be awarded a penis till they can be trusted to manage it.As frustrating as it is to see guys who managed to reach adulthood (and older) without realizing something so simple, I figure better late than never.
