[NYP] Doctors have warned horny young men to refrain from using banana peels to masturbate ‐ the latest bizarre sex trend circulating on social media.
"It’s the closet thing to a blowjob," wrote one randy Redditor, who claims "he’s been doing it for years."
However, Dr. Diana Gill of prescription service Doctor-4-U cautions against the perverse practice. "You could develop a rash and sores on the penis which can be painful and might lead to infection," Gill told the Sun. Not only that, but she claims a person with a fruit or latex allergy could be more susceptible to a reaction from a banana skin.
"A person with a banana allergy is more likely to be allergic to other substances such as latex or other fruits and vegetables," she said. "So if you’re allergic to latex condoms you may also be allergic to banana skins."
Gill’s not the only naysayer. One Reddit user recounted a harrowing, cautionary tale where he used a banana skin to masturbate and allegedly ended up "falling in the mess I made, hit my head on the toilet and barely lived to tell the tale."
However, supporters of the organic orgasm inducer feel it’s too good to pass up. Subscribers to JackInWorld, the self-proclaimed "Ultimate Male Masturbation Resource," gave the "banana man" 4.5 out of 5 stars with 359 votes cast so far. The site also provides a tutorial on how to perform the act and even advised warming the peel for added effect. |
