Can you really go blind from masturbating?

Question

I'm 14 and my sister caught me masturbating in the bathroom. I thought I had the bathroom door locked but I guess it didn't lock correctly.

My sister told me that I would go blind from masturbating? Is it really true that I can go blind from masturbating?

Answer 1

No you can't go blind from masturbation.

Going blind from masturbating is just a myth and something someone came up with to scare people out of masturbating.

There's no truth to it.

If it were true people would be blind from having sex. Masturbation is just a different type of sex that you do on your own without a partner.
