Neyoor:
From the Neyooric perspective and school of thought.

Both are sinful, as the both major religions frown at it, but the truth is that the later is still far better and preferable to the former.

Come to think of it. When you cheat, you committed a sin called adultery and you are liable to face the following:

1. If not caught you can:

Get infected with STD's

Unwanted pregnancy

Troubled mind.

Guilt

And on the other hand, if you are caught

You can have a broken home

You might be stigmatized.


Well, when you masturbate. There is 80percent possibility that you might not be caught leaving you to face the only problem of feeling guilty.

shegxi:

Longtime... Howdy?

Am very fine ooooo, Every appearance I made was a hit, Back to back, From Romance to politics to Celebrities, Originality ti take over, Iyalaya anybody

shegxi:
this submission is so not true......u can infact masturbate while thinking about ur man or woman......
but to answer d op, when i get to dat pont, i will know wat to do

,,,,, and when is it likely you get to 'that' point

darkenedrebel:
the answer is as clear as a bell - Mastubation, that's if you truly respect the sanctity of marriage/relationship.

it is not off the wall, neither is it harmful(except maybe for Peyronie's disease), and it's only considered abnormal when it inhibits partner-oriented behavior, or is done in public, like the story of that ninja that was caught jèrking off in his vehicle 2 weeks ago..

cheating on the other hand leaves you vulnerable to STDs.

using logic(not religion), which one do you think has lesser collateral damage?

As the moderator of this Open Debate, I'd rather not be on the 'spot'


Thanks for expantiating further !

KingTom:
My name is Tom, a catholic. My religion actually frowns at both but to be honest I'd rather masturbate than cheat, adultery in any religion is frowed upon. A little fun with vaseline and my bed won't hurt anyone.

What more can I say ......... Dr Kingtom is here




Quite comical of you .


Was hoping you would surface from a medical angle...

stonepapa:
masturbation goes together with cheating...cos some one will masturbate while thinking about another gal or boy..which is not us bf or gf..

My very first confusion



Is masturbation also cheating?

donnffd:
First of all, I see alot of hypocrites in the house... Many are saying they can't do anyone...hilarious

I don't know where Africans get the idea that mastubation is such an evil thing that it should be compared with cheating! To me, that's a poor mentality.

This question is a no brainer...

ademoladeji:
I'm Ayo....

Masturbation: is giving yourself pleasure by yourself

Cheating: is giving yourself pleasure by opposite/same sex while in commitment with another person.

One thing is certain- ADDICTION.

Addiction a state characterized by compulsive
engagement in rewarding stimuli despite adverse
consequences... This is very hard to curb n would take both spiritual (if possible) and psychological power to stop.

Of the two above, Masturbation is very addictive and could destroy a relationship beyond repair more than cheating.

I'm not advocating for people to engage in cheating (as it's a sin), but cheating could be stopped and controlled easily than Masturbation.

Religiously, both are sins and should be avoided but if I was faced with the option of picking one, I would vote for CHEATING.

Lordprez:
Well I'm prez.... new here buh then not so new


From a personal opinion, I'd rather masturbate, not because I'm being moral or any of that sh!t buh becus I feel it would annoy my babe/spouse/partner the least


its me wanking my Joystick against me sticking it into some other chick's pvssy... I'm sure she'd prefer the former, that's what relationship are all about, annoying your partner the least


#MyOpinion

....Out of this world.


Oga dis ur thinking naa ______________________

ghostmist:
^^ @ the bolded...is it like there is somewhere they manufacture this crap that you guys keep coming up with every time?


why not "kukuma" tell us to stop eating and breathing cos' they are all desires of the flesh??

Hmmmmm, little below the belt .


Let's have your submission, yours gaanngan

PinkBarbie:
My name is Barbara. I wouldn't do any. If I ever have a reason to cheat on my man, I'd rather talk it out with him, make him understand my needs. If he doesn't change and it's something I can't control, I'll break up and go get it.

On a second thought, how long will one keep breaking up just so you could satisfy your sexual needs? I think this is where maturity comes to play. I'd rather make him understand my plight and he'll try his best to adjust because he loves me.

I see masturbation as a sin against your own body. It's total disrespect to your own self and your partner.

adepeter26:
Both are same but with different level of severity & complications

Estharfabian:
Scentmarlc, Did U really Believe/Welcome the thought that Someone in His/her right Mind would rather Admit They preferred cheating to Masturbating?



The Moral Answer is way Obvious....

iAmCharis:
Nice comments.
Iceberylin, you'll do well to tell us why you prefer cheating on your partner to masturbation.

Why is everyone saying they'd rather masturbate? More counter opinions please.

darkenedrebel:
the answer is obvious...

Ironically the obvious is not obvious



Do well to drive home your 'obvious' points with more epistle

You better pass naa

Cherlene:
Good morning

I love your COMMENT.

bukas15:
some folks wit retard thinking faculty. if u can masturbate, what makes u think u cant cheat.

abeggi....both masturbation nd cheating are termed CHEATING

Ma guy don vex

bqlekan:
I'm Lekan, just another ordinary human...
well, being a Muslim, I'd rather cheat than masturbate, my religion frowns at masturbation. religion doesn't support cheating either, but it does support polygamy. ( I'm willing to do something against my will other than against God's will)



I just did

Simple short and precise.
I love that



Ama ama calling you to my matters now

misspicy:
My Name is Spicy,like I always say everyone know me as Spicy,am not an unknown entity around here

am talking from the moral point of view,am too sinful to talk from the religious aspect

on a scale of preference
I will rather masturbate than cheat on my partner. why? because I am an emotional being,been a woman,I find it hard to engage in frivolous activities,so I tend to take my time before engaging in such affairs,due to the fact that am a calculated person.

this is why I encourage people planing to go into a relationship,whether long term or marriage to engage with someone they are comfortable(physically,financially,morally) with and share same views with, so that they will not be tempted by someone perceived to be better than their partner(the basis for most female cheats)


my humble submission Mr Scentmarlc

Applaudise madmoiselle spicy ,


Well crafted and well delivered.


Am sure your submission have been noted .

Gracias!

Cheating is way out of it, and masturbatioj is demonic in all point of view, better still, endure and wait for him,...masturbatioj can create atmosphere for cheating, that's what have been hearing from ladies sha...

Cheating is now a hit back to back, from admiring, to hanging out,and kissing to 4cking, and masturbtiom with Aboliki or Chinese Balm. Ti take over.. All naj back to back

Drops mic, and storms out...
Iyalaya masturbation ati cheating....... When I get fresh pussiew for nairaland

You are highly rcognized, chief lobolintin . And your observations are duly noted.


Gracias

IamLEGEND1:
Watzup Y'all,

my name is Legend, just ur everyday nomadic Fulani guy.
From a cultural/social/psychological point of view, masturbàtion is way better than cheating.
You don't have to lay out a meticulous plan on how to go about masturbàting without ur partner knowing like you would if u were cheating.
which automatically makes it more efficient than cheating.

+ It's always available(you know wuh'm sayin' ) unlike the hoe you be banging on the side.

Religiously,it's slightly more complicated- depending if you consider masturbàtion to be a sin or not (personally,i'm undecided).Either way,you still don't run the risk of contracting a fatal STD through masturbàtion unlike an affair: due to ur probable obliviousness to any medical condition of ur said side-hoe.

So yeah, I'll much rather masturbàte to a Jada fire video than cheat on a partner......no one deserves that.

Well put sire .

bqlekan:
hmmmm

Well said

Crysallis:
The Bible says that fornication (or adultry) is a sin against God and our body. (I Corinthians 6:18)

Masturbation is a desire of the flesh and it is not right in the sight of God. According to 1 Corinthians 10:13, no temptation has overtaken us that is not common to man; God is faithful and will not let us be tempted beyond our ability and that God will always provide a way of escape that we might be able to endure the temptation.

1 Peter 2:11 clearly warns us against the passions of the flesh.

So dear OP, Juxtaposing two wrongs while providing a choice between them does not make indulging in one seem right.

* in Patience Jonathan's voice; I rather kill myself than commit suicide. Meaning, I will rather masturbate than cheat on my beloved partner

Very funny
