CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy.
If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.

There's nothing wrong with masturbation
Who doesn't love a good wank? Apparently there are a bunch of fundies in America who are anti-masturbation. as usual, the reasoning behind whyu it is immoral tends to consist of "BECAUSE IT IS SHUT UP!!!".
If you aren't going to give an actual reason, just quote bible verses or whatever, please don't bother, the question is "what is wrong with it" not "what does the bible say about it".
Masturbation does not hurt others or yourself (unless you like it that way), and therefore does not meet the criteria required for an action to be deemed immoral.
In order to demonstrate that masturbation is immoral, you must demonstrate that it harms people other than the masturbator.
Masterbation does hurt others, as a homosexual I've often been hurt when other boys wank over girls. Though masterbation isn't really immoral (unless you're a stupid Christian) it can still hurt peoples feelings.
[side note: Hey..., it's me.... I'm applying what I've learned from you so far. Let me know how I do.]
I looked at your profile and you're probably a good person but you haven't taken the time to fill out your profile, so I'll never know! Therefore, I will consider you a tramp until you fill out your profile. After that, I will only consider you tramp when it suits me.
Nothing is wrong with masturbation - on the contrary, it has health benefits.
Some people might also say that masturbation makes you find your partner less attractive if you use porn (and who doesn't). Well, that may be true sometimes, but we have to learn how to separate fantasy from reality. Girls who have watched a few Disney movies might think they are deserving of a prince, but they aren't. Are Disney movies also wrong for making those girls' expectations in life to be ridiculous?
Pros
Health Benefits
Feels good
Prevents blue balls
Cons
Potential Death (http://www.g17.com.br/noticia.php?id=99) (But how many people jerk off 42 times in a row? REALLY?) (Impossible in females, they can do it as much as they want)
Sexual Dysfunction (The victim's own fault for having excessively high expectations/being naive)
Embarrassment when someone walks into you furiously masturbating (protip: lock the door)
Masturbation is good for you. I believe it reduces stress and sexual tension, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and even can reduce risk for prostate cancer. Jerk off more people! :)
well i am totally a fan. Its important especially for women to find out what they like so they know and can make it known to there partner if they are not getting something rite.
This is far from boring subject matter. T'would probably take into account a lot of variables, how fast they were moving, your height, their height, distance, air flow, timing, initial force required, acceleration and fluid viscosity needed to actually permanently damage eye tissue.
Let me know how you get on, I'll get someone in the physics department to have a look at your work and maybe see if it's viable thesis material.
On that rare occasion when I fancy a menage a trois, then of course Seaman Staines is invited. Hell, sometimes I invite my pal Willy round. The more willy the better and all.
I'm going to play the devil's advocate and say that even if the jizz hits someone in the eye, I don't believe its caustic. Sure, it will piss them off to a level that surpasses all quantifiable pissedoffness. However, the jizz will rinse away and I don't believe that there's anything in it that will destroy the eye. But I like to be honest and.... Fuck it, I'm not a scientist and I'm talking out my ass on this one. Thanks.
A friend of a friend wanted to look at porn in private but the electrical power cord for the monitor was too short so he got an extension cord but it was longer than it needed to be so he wrapped the excess around the monitor and in doing so he partially disconnected the plug, thus exposing the bare metal, and when he came he shorted the connection and electrocuted himself. True Story Bro ;)
You're not actually funny, so stop thinking that you are. I think it's about time someone gave you a wakeup call and told you the truth to your face. If you're going to join this site and make jokes to experienced veterans like me all you do is establish your noobiness.
OK. I'm willing to learn. So what do I have to do to be all funny like you? How about I start all my arguments with, "Hello Noob," I laugh out loud every time you do it ;)
I may not be doing it right though. Please provide some more tips and pointers. I can't wait ;)
To become respected and revered like me you have to treat everyone else as your equal, you do not waste there valuable time with stupid comments and unfunny jokes. I've also been doing my research and I know about the many alternate accounts you have Joe, you should stop messing around with them.
Also to be truly respected you need to be an individual. For example I am a gay atheist and people repsect me for being open with it. You're just some average internet tramp.
OK, so to be an individual you have to label yourself..., sounds kinda restrictive but..., OK...
And I have to treat everyone as my equal in the beginning of the argument and then let them have it at the end and call them tramps.... got it. What else? Man..., you're so wise. I hope this works. I don't know how I ever made it here for so many years with out your guidance ;)
It's good that you're learning, together we can turn you into a proper debater and a respected member of this site. as I am planning to becoming the First President of CreateDebate I shall soon be in a position of authority.
Anyway, why are you taking notes it's all on the computer screen anyway?
Here's some more tips:
Nearly every year we get a load of immigrant members heading for the shores of CD,there are 3 types of noobs. Some get picked up by old veterans and trained to become a professional debater (such as yourself), others are left to wallow in their opwn stupidity and never progress anyway, while the rest just run around trying to annoy the elite in an attempt to overthrow the order (like MasterKage is trying to do to me).
Oh and by the way, I'm taking note of all your comments of my supreme intelligence and wisdom, however flattering will get you nowhere. Over-excessive flattery will.

No, you won't.

facepalm
I have already considered myself a competent debater before joining this site. And I am not trying to annoy any other respected members of this site. But yes, I am trying to annoy you, Chaffy.
