I feel like there's like a ted talk for everything
It sure seems that way. This channels videos have been going on for years. Plus, everybody wants to take the stage to conduct a lecture.
... and everyone.
I love your profile pic
It’s 2019 and you’re still rockin’ bleach smh
There is
"... improves immune functioning" I ought to be goddamned immortal by now.
LOL
Ahahaha....that's where Highlanders came out from! LOL
😂😂😂😂💪🏻💪🏻
TMI! LOL!
You just made cry of laughter
RIP to the one who just watched the first 30 seconds, lost his hope and left the video thinking that now he is DONE !
Lmao
:(
😂😂😂😂
Damn the infertile myth at the start made me say to myself “okay maybe not today”
caleb just do it on ur own pace.dont be addicted
Hey loona
Idk...I thought maybe being infertile could have its benefits...
It made me say to my self "never again".

Funny, Jason. Humor is good! ;)
+Jason Hunter Sounds more like a secret, occultish, feminzai criminal organization determined to rule the Earth. Kind of a cross between Cobra and Vagina Monologues and Hydra. "I am the CLIT Commander!" - Jay hehehehe

Haha
Yo I was so scared 🤣🤣
Wonder how many parents brought their children along to hear her talk.
At a Ted talk? I don’t think kids would be there... think being the key word as I don’t know the rules behind guests or audience members.
Yh
@@dubbingsync yes I think so too
Actually , I suspect it would be every bit as likely the other way round - "See Mum... It's not just me!".
probably none
Indians have the most spicy foods and they also have one of the highest populations in the world... Myth broken in a sentence... 😂😂😂😂🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

The Chinese as well lmao 😂
@@SnipFred yes!!! They have noodles.
Yes you're right.. Spicy food specially more use of onion and garlic
*China!!
I think that the problem here is that she separates the act of masturbation from pornography. For men, rarely does one come without the other. The damaging effects of pornography and the addictive nature of it can have an impact on psychological health and intimacy in relationships.
She literally talked about it AND explained it...
Particularly damaging to the magazine if you not a straight shooter
I blame my Jesus Christ church for spreading the myths about pleasuring myself. This Jesus guy and his priests have lied to humanity.
I can say nothing
Well said

Really? Is that what she said and did? Thanks for letting me know, I was on toilet,🙄
Thanks for being so open, I highly appreciated.
damn she got me for a second there

It was enough for me to rethink my whole life, lol.

When someone asks what I did last night I usually say "I netflix and chilled with myself"
That's what a girl on Tinder replied to me. Now it makes sense.
Amazing facts
Pronhub and chill.
This is the way to do presentation. She was quite good in interacting with the audiences.
I think this video and it’s author is very inspirational 💯🔐
I was about to become depressed in starting ... I got a feeling of relief when she said all are lies
He'll yea lol
Mi too lol
What if it's true :s
Hahaha!
Give us
I really like how relaxed and comfortable people in these fields are with topics like sex, and I mean this is how everybody should be. It doesn't make sense to feel bad about it or guilty, everybody does it, people in the past did, it people in the future will continue to do it so? If it wasn't meant to be done you wouldn't have discovered it alone!
Yeah, but I don't like what other people do with their bodies that doesn't effect me at all whatsoever! It makes me uncomfortable hurr durr.
Say it louder for the people in the back
Peter Tzonis that's a trained lecturer she's doing. All Memory!
Peter Tzonis but she's missing a looot of points, and she's wrong in many things...

The most eloquent and mellifluous speaker I've ever heard. I just want her to keep talking 😄 and such immense intellect and wit ! Wow! But surprised that Ted has spelling mistakes :P
Single most impactful video for me. I started a new category on KZhead cause of her fabulous video. You go girl!
Who else checked the palm of their hands for hair

Clicked on this TED Talk as a simple man. Left feeling intrigued by her intellect.
Love you so much not for your speech but your clerity of mind . And also your purity of heart❤️
I was shaken for the first 30 seconds. I was like I am done boy 😂🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
I was scared to death..😅😅😅😂😂
Ahahahahahahah......
Yea man...
I thought my unborn children were only a figment of my imagination for a minute
I'm still thinking about those 5% of men who have never masturbated.
Me too. Wish I never had. 😁😁
do their balls eventually just explode?
@@knowledgeismyrock hahaha
@@knowledgeismyrock nope. Its like drugs. If you dont do it, youre not addicted, and you feel normal. But once you start, you feel like you cant stop, which is probably you.
they are liars!!
As soon as she said it will grow hair on your palm ... I was relieved
Very calmly and in simple words she explained everything... 👌 awesome
You already know what people did after watching this video ;)

I love that line too... :)
The best TED talk I've ever heard. Good for you and all women.
What about men??
@@fromchopinnot good at all
I don't know if anyone noticed but she is amazingly attractive 😉
I did!
Yes I noticed that quite readily!
I noticed her bobs
I liked her more and more as she kept talking
Nah
If masturbation makes you avoid marriage, then go for it!
+Valken That would explain why Iv'e never married, Iv'e been a wanker all my life!
he's like " I recommend it sir" jajaja
LMFAO wanking me to go for marriage even more. I would never ever want a feminist wife but rather an Egalitarian one even if they are hard to find XD
Kami Sama Careful, I had many who pretend to be egalitarian, until they realize they can use the law to steal your house and income. For money they stop being egalitarian pretty quick...
Valken yeah bro i know but i'll marry contractual
it improves your immune functioning. now I know why I never get sick.
Especially if you come in your own mouth. Your own creamy nectary vitamin shot would shoot straight down your throat for easy administering.

@@kristinburton4953 wtf lol
Damn 😂
Teesha, Thank you. You speak freely and openly about topics that tongue tie most of us. Your presentation was very refreshing and enjoyable.
she won my hearts by debunking all myths
+
Masturbation is good and even healthy but chronic porn use as a means to masturbate can be hugely detrimental to overall mental health and lead to erectile dysfunction. I think she hurt her presentation not to underline or even address that point especially since, for most men, porn and masturbation goes hand in hand... no pun intended.
it is not healthy at all.
Romel Nailes Jr. , his name is Shane Idleman.
Actually masturbation is very healthy, and can decrease sickness. Just be sure to wash your hands before and after 😉
hand and hand. lol
She wants to keep her Job, maybe she didn't address it because of that.
Of all of the masturbation videos on the internet, this is the only one I have found that is actually helpful, and doesn't feel a person full of some false sense of shame. Thank you for sharing!
Incredible personality with incredible thoughts and ideas love you i wish there were some more like u in this for world for us
You are awesome speaker ,make everyone laugh . And your fare SMILEY talking makes easy to good conclusion.
You are amazing Teesha! Thank you So much for talking about this in such a cool, entertainingly relaxed, casual, and non smutty way. VERY much appreciated.

Great lecture Teesha! You make me proud. Keep up the great work.
WHEN MY MOM CAUGHT DOING THE DASTARDLY DEED SHE TOLD ME IT WOULD CAUSE ME TO GO BLIND! I THEN ASKED HER IF I COULD JUST DO IT UNTIL I NEEDED GLASSES!!! GO FIGURE !
im mad at her!
I can imagine a kid believing that as truth. The day the kid sees a blind person they would probably ask them, " You've masturbated didn't you?"
LMFAOOOOOOOO
Chary me up from serious relationship Voice call +234 904 260 2671
It'll cause her to be blind ..what she doesnt know doesnt hurt her .. so why is she bothering your pleasure
What a great talk! Thank you!
Masturbation neutralizes the desire to interact with women sexually and can lead one to living with one's hand rather than with a woman (if masturbation is used frequently enough).
+Nerian For whom?
+Nerian How have you arrived at that thought?
+humanyoda Just a guess because I'm not who you are questioning, but I'd say a decrease in libido would be hugely beneficial for men because we do some really stupid things and make some really terrible decisions based on attraction. We settle for the wrong woman, we quit great careers to move to be with someone who isn't right for us. The list is pretty extensive. There's a reason for the saying "you used the wrong head" in decision making.
+Amadon Faul Makes sense, but I view this method as a double-edge sword. It is possible to settle on living with one's hand rather than with a woman. That's what I meant.
Watch the whole video or another Ted talk about porn. It is pornography that has this effect not masturbation. Why do you think such a large majority of men watch porn? Because... Simple masturbation isn't enough we want a woman. Porn becomes the substitution not jacking off. You're essentially knocking something because most people do it wrong.
VERY factual and real explanation of what we are in disguise. Indeed the term makes much difference Masturbation and changing this would really be something we ought to do earlier.
Very well done. Articulate and informative. We need more women like Teesha breaking down barriers to our happiness.
You aren't going to find many women like her in this country.
don't know but she is amazing talker i mean speaker on stage and she has the guts to touch such topic wow
Now it's your turn to do some touching.
You are a wonderful speaker Teesha! Keep spreading the word
I mean
Way to go Teesha, great talk- good advice- lets hope we change perspective
She needs to distinguish between men and women. Women gain strength but men get exhausted.
*men gain shame lmao
😅🤣🤣
I beg to differ....
@@ShizzieShizz73 you must be a woman then.
@@bungangamsha3526 😂😂😂
Sure was an interesting watch. Well said Teesha! Thanks for the informative TED Talk! I surely learned a thing or two
Masterbation is fine, just don't let it get out of hand.....
Whiskers Briarwood is that a pun😂
Bruh
snicker ...snicker
Just don't let it go to your head?
😂😂😂😂😂
Very well spoken.Finally and open, intellectual and factual approach to sexuality/masturbation.
I kept staring at the butterfly tattoo on her ankle.
Oh, so that was what the tattoo is.
I liked it too, great legs!
@@edwintalbot1653 True..... And that makes me wonder if up north there is some more curly hair :-)
Very well explained with simple examples
I guess the porn sites have send their agents... there are other pseudo-psychologists who say that masturbation to porn doesnt do nothing to the brain. And lets just accept the fact that a woman is trying to convince us if its good or bad to masturbate. I think I would make a Ted talk about pregnancy ! I've stoped porn for almost 2 months and I feel better, more mindfull and cleansed, also more energy and self-control+ a bit more confidence !
I tried not masturbating for 3 months. Hated every minute. Totally pointless. I can agree with the porn, though. I haven't watched porn in a long time and am better off for it. But not masturbating has only lead to negative effects for me. It's almost as though masturbation can benefit some and harm others.
ur the man same here bro people are decieved lol i feel sorry for people who agree with the shit she says she is talking logically but thats not what masterbation really does it causes all negative side effects but porn has to go on so yeah lol thats why they promote it just sry for english
+Pafel Pafelov I think it's porn that's really detrimental. I'm not sure if plain masterbation is actually bad.
Lazarus Aether dart200 Omar Abouraya I agree with you all. Guess I haven't been affected cus I have a gf and do regular sex. It's not bad to masturbate if you feel like it after all we need to produce new and healthy sperm. I guess porn is the only thing we should avoid so it doesn't fuck with our brains, moral and values.
+Lazarus Aether I agree, for some reasons people suddenly believe everything a dude on TED talk says. And forget the history of research on masturbation. Porn addicts with library of video are obvious a different story. But getting yourself off has been known to have physiological and physical body benefits. doesn't HAVE to tie up with pornography film.
This is such a wonderful speech on a very serious topic within current society with intelligent humors, and it contains a lot of facts as well. I am a big believer in communication and trust are key to successfully relationships (particularly sexuality part of the relationship) , and masturbation can really help in those two areas, because if you don't know your own body, your own sexual pleasure, then how would you expect anyone else to know better than yourself. Only when you know yourself well enough, you can guide your partners and communicate clearly with your partner to allow him/her to give you pleasure, and trust in him/her to allow you to receive great pleasure.

Well done Teesha! Your presentation was both entertaining and informative, and I learned a thing or two... What a great way to talk about this topic! I wish you great success on your journey to support people with better sex education, you are definitely needed.
Congratulations Teesha! Your talk was edgy, funny, informative - but above all, a great way to tackle a topic that many folks have questions about, but didn't know who to ask... now they do! Great job, and I'm looking forward to hearing more great stories from you in the future!
I blame my Jesus Christ church for spreading the myths about pleasuring myself. This Jesus guy and his priests have lied to humanity.
Well if we're all being adults and we're all being honest with ourselves more than with other people she made a lot of very good points enough where even I would love a chance to sit down and speak with this woman
Actually first 30 seconds were true. Don't get confused by this video. Society doesn't want you to succeed. there are infinite side effects of masturbation. For true guidance watch Chastity108 youtube channel. Good luck.
Wow TEDX, very informative and good knowledge, salute your knowledge and your presentation excellent awesome, thank you appreciate love you
Thank you for this absolutely fantastic talk about self- pleasuring! The world NEEDs this message:)
She was saying stop watching me and just do it.😁...
Do whatt😁😁
Right😂😂😂😂
Supposed to make you go blind but, somehow I can't see that.
An old man in nursing home was caught "pleasuring himself". A very conservative nurse tells him "Stop that; you'll go blind." The man asks "Can't I do it until I just get cataracts?"
he brings down blood pressure. Reduces stress. there's nobody you have to deal with afterwards except yourself. and it will keep your ass out of prison.
Ever heard of Jack the Ripper
x ppP are you talking about masterbation or Jesus???? Really? Out of jail?
Well said. She amazed me of how she delivered her message effectively. The way talk was calm and smooth. Her visual presentation was a good way to present her ideas coherently. The way she moves and the way she uses her hands were also a good way to convey every points of her message. Overall, her communication skills were pretty impressive and if I would to rate her speech then it would be 9/10.
@Venom Hype hi how are you? is there female?
I was so depressed at the beginning untill she said it's a lie
@@rideadventure3777 time to get it done before I get to the other thing that is not worth the time to talk about it
I loved the talk at last 💯💯🙏🙏
So much useful information... Thank you soo much teesha...
Thanks for explaining one of the most confusing question.
but why our baba's are against thhis bhai...
This poor lady has NO idea what she talking about. Masturbation is the worst thing for mind body and soul.
@we see the ligh it’s being proven that masturbation clears the mind
@@beliver468 you've got "soul" in your sentence, so we know it's gotta be true!

I dont like where this is going..
She is right about some things but I believe it DOES teach me instant gratification which makes my life feel harder than it is.. I get more distracted because I tend to search for a stimulus that gives me similar feeling more often.. I did experience worse performance at a gym after doing it (I'm talking day or two before).. I'm not sure about immunity improvement, I only notice brief improvement when I'm sick and then I feel even more tired and overall worse.. I don't tell anyone what to do but for me it seems helpful. I don't have religious reasons, I'm not ashamed of it and I don't care about going against mainstream.. Maybe it helps only certain types of people, who knows, I'm probably one of them.. For anyone who looks down on this, I encourage you to stay open minded.. give it try for several days.. If then you decide It's utter nonsense, it's ok..
You might wanna ask yourself why you are constantly looking for stimulus, for me it was because of my ADHD but it could be different for many people.
I completely agree to this. The speaker does not seem to have real experience about it.masturbation is wrong. It weakens you physically as well as mentally.
Good stuff... much to learn from
She scared me the first few minutes 😂

Humans have a way of talking themselves into negative behavior. In all honesty we should practice self control.
Nofap proves her wrong
She did a comparison between sports and masturbation... ugh women.
@@agent-eg8mb yup nofap is really good.improves confidence and conserves energy.
facts.
@@agent-eg8mb I saw your comment and out of morbid curiosity I decided to randomly google "nofap suicides". Much to my surprise I came across a plethora of results. I'm not trying to suggest there's an inherent correlation between the practice of nofap and intrusive thoughts but I just wanted to get your perspective on that particular subject. Do you think there's any demographic that might be more susceptible to suffering adverse effects while on nofap?
Wonderful, Dr. Teesha! I love your sense of humor. :)

Masturbation destroys my self-esteem, which in turn causes many of the problems she's trying to dismiss.
It makes me feel much better about myself actually, more energy and a better mood.
That's the point she's making! It destroys your self-esteem because of the unhealthy societal attitude towards it. If it was accepted as a norm, there wouldn't be a stigma around it and people wouldn't feel ashamed of themselves for engaging in this activity.
This is soo true, it destroy my life, i wsnt to live a normal life and judt be me and meet someone
You're likely using it as a coping mechanism for stress or trauma. Consider therapy.
maybe doing it to often. try less often.
I love this woman
Me too
Love your presentation miss, Morgan.
I am over doing it..I need to see you immediately
Me too 😂🤣🤣🤣
This was so on point. I'm showing this to all my girl friends. Every woman needs to see this.
This is awesome. Thanks, Teesha for such a fantastic lecture with a positive way of viewing masturbation in society.
outstanding presentation....
I love the sheer amount of comments here that boil down to "YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'RE TWISTED!" that offer _no actual evidence or counterpoint,_ just disagreement.
If masturbation _did_ make you go blind, would you.... a: stop b: slow down c: take your chances
Lol. Definitely take my chances.
Hmm.....decisions, decisions.
If you went blind, the good news is that you'd still be able to beat your meat😅

Superb talk, worthy of sharing with the uneducated
The Ending 🔥
i was scared at the beginning but then i realized she was empasizing a point and the statements were myths.
