Suffice to say it's really not unhealthy or harmful. But, if you really feel you must refrain from it, go to bed wearing mittens or socks on your hands. Or cover your hands with some smelly, stinging, burning muscle balm like Tiger Balm. Or find a company that makes a male chastity belt. I also believe some S&M/B&D suppliers will also sell cages that are designed to prevent people from touching themselves enough to achieve orgasm. - Patrick McKinnion -- "Brought to you by 'Ouchies', the sharp, prickly toy you bathe with...." ------------------ (http://home.earthlink.net/~patgund) ICQ# 5527565
