[Even if I vote for a third party knowing that they won't win I will have the satisfaction that I voted for my choice and not the lesser of two evils.]
Onanism [masturbation] also makes you feel good... but what does it accomplish?

Well, you're far less likely to wake up wearing icky underwear in the next morning.
Exactly to feel good and fulfill your instinct and your necessities. And anyway, you're not good at analogies because, in both cases, what do you have to win?, satisfaction, self-steem and coherence. What do you have to lose?, NOTHING.
For both topics, politics and reproduction, if people thought like you, the human race would have gone extinct by now.
Someone really needs to sit him down and explain how democracy works.
It's not voting for who you think everyone would want you to vote for. It's who best represents you. If it's not someone you feel comfortable with voting for, don't vote for him.
Guess what?
THAT'S WHY THE LITTLE THIRD PARTY GUYS ARE THERE!

It's a shame your Dad didn't indulge in it rather more.
At the time of your conception, for instance.
Well, with me, it single-handedly keeps Kleenex in business.
So if you stop wanking, you might as well be a god darned commie!
At the risk of being picky, Onan was having sex with his late brother's wife (as required by OT law) but withdrew before ejaculating in an attempt to avoid conceiving a child. How you get from there to onanism = masturbation is beyond me.
Incidentally, why aren't the fundies who quote Leviticus as condemning homosexuality equally as vocal about forcing younger sons to impregnate the childless wives of their dead elder brothers: it's just as Biblical.
I was talking with a guy once who said he didn't play games, read books, watch movies, or spend any money on pleasurable pastimes "because it only gives you this" (points to his head) OK, I don't know what the Hell else he did for himself but my question is; What else is there except 'this'? (pointing to my head)
It's all a pipe dream
Well, when I masturbate, I accomplish the blowing of my load. nothing wrong with that.
"Rapture Ready"? Don't these guys get off on anything related to Jesus?
So if voting for a third party that you actually support is equal to masturbation, what does that make of republicans and democrats in your analogy? Bastard babies that you never really wanted, but now you're stuck with 'em.
Masturbation, performed by an attractive person on an online webcam can bring joy to many people, those (usually less attractive) people who are playing with themselves while watching the webcam stream are providing money (whether it be by subscription or hit based advertising money) to put food on the table of a webmaster's family. Whack off, it helps the economy.
I suppose you won't be celebrating getting the keys to your golden mansion in heaven with a quick one off the wrist, then...
I bet you feel really guilty when you have a nice juicy sex dream too.
What does masturbation accomplish?

And a good quote on the matter: "About 90% of people say they masturbate, the other 10% are liars."
For the longest time, I used it as a sedative, and told my room mates to get the fuck out of the living room so I could get ready for bed.
"Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
It actually flushes out older sperm, allowing newer sperm to go to the head of the line. Older sperm is believed to increase the chances that a child will be born with some sort of health issue or birth defect, so newer sperm=healthier babies.
It also neutralizes the acidity in the urethra caused by urination. Semen is basic, pee is acidic. And the urethra doesn't have the protective lining the stomach has, so a slightly acidic urethra is not a good thing. Not fatal, but it can get painful.
@Kuyohashi:
That is the best excuse for masturbation I've ever heard. "I'm fapping for healthy babies!"
But seriously, that's an interesting fact.
Um, it makes us feel good?
Also, it reduces the risk of incontinence later, and it's relaxing.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
