A Coffee Break or Masturbation Time at Work?

“I would expect a masturbation policy to result in more focus, less aggression, higher productivity, and more smiling.”

Dr Cliff Arnall, Psychologist and Life Coach, agrees with that statement: “I would expect a masturbation policy to result in more focus, less aggression, higher productivity, and more smiling,” he told Metro. “Certainly taking a masturbation break for boredom or an escape would increase work focus.”

So, who's really doing it at work?

Their conclusions that a masturbation break at work might be a good idea came after a recent survey by Time Out New York. They found that 39% of male readers reported masturbating in the office. For women that percentage is 31%. An earlier poll by Glamour in 2012 came up with 31% male "self lovers."

A word of warning however...

Arnall stated in The Metro UK: “Masturbation breaks shouldn’t be driven by lust or fantasizing about a colleague as this would likely result in cognitive impairment. Such breaks should only be taken if they’re motivated by a genuine desire for stress relief.” Dr Sergeant warned in The Metro UK: "Introducing any form of sexual behavior to a workplace could be seen as a slippery slope that makes people think that other forms of sexual behavior, such as those linked to harassment, are more acceptable.”
