Ask The Batemaster: Bating While Driving

“It is remarkable how complex the brain is! The brain can track several major activities at once. Only be careful and sensible.”

QUESTION:

I drive cross-country a lot. During these long road trips, I love to masturbate, sometimes for hours while I drive solo. I do get in the zone, but I don’t think I’ve ever come close to losing control. How safe do you think this is?

RESPONSE:

There is not a simple answer to this, though obviously if you get distracted beyond a certain point while driving a vehicle, that cannot be considered safe. One conventional wisdom about driving is that you should always keep both hands on the steering wheel unless you are shifting gears. At the same time, most people who drive long distances notice that though the mind can wander what seems like very far from paying full attention to the act of driving. You find you kept the vehicle on the road and maintained safe speeds, obeyed traffic laws. It is remarkable how complex the brain is! The brain can track several major activities at once. Only be careful and sensible.

My attitude on this is certainly not “anything goes.” Still, I do feel that while you are driving along lengthy stretches of highway and not within the complex traffic of a city, to maintain a certain level of masturbatory pleasure while you drive may not be as dangerous as texting while you drive. You can masturbate and remain fully engaged in what you are doing, where you are, and fully aware of your environment and situation. I do not advocate this practice, any more than I suggest you should not do it. One problem is to consider the safety of other vehicles.

It is remarkable how complex the brain is! The brain can track several major activities at once. Only be careful and sensible.

I’m not intending to simply “hedge my bets,” on this issue, as the saying goes. Certainly, a passenger riding in a vehicle during a long road trip may safely enjoy masturbating during such travel. But necessarily if the driver himself masturbates, this becomes a different issue. It is also probably a matter of the level of arousal you bring yourself to as you masturbate while you drive. 

The kind of “split attention” involved when you masturbate while driving, particularly during otherwise-monotonous long-distance road travel, is something your complex brain and nervous system can probably handle pretty well. However, I cannot vouch for the safety of such a practice. To drive as safely as possible always involves keeping full attention on what you are doing as you control the vehicle.

Similarly, to really masturbate while you explore the fullest potentials of self-pleasure requires complete mindful focus on yourself, on your own body, and on what you are doing. This means without the distractions of fantasy or porn, although many men now assume those must be part of it. This is an assumption I challenge with my teaching of Mindful Masturbation, which in my experience provides many men with greater pleasure than they have ever felt from masturbation.

There is no simple, easy answer to your question. Do take care, be responsible, pay full attention, and enjoy yourself!

A note from The Batemaster: I’m honored that the guys at Bateworld have asked me to respond to some questions from male masturbators around the world every week.

Always check with your doctor about any issues you might be experiencing with your sexual organs. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are important. This article’s purpose is to inform and entertain readers and is not a substitute for medical advice or treatment.

The Batemaster (Bruce P. Grether)

How Bruce P. Grether became the Batemaster

Among his earliest memories, Bruce recalls seeing an adult man’s penis swing about anchored in a nest of curly brown hairs when the man was changing clothes. That penis fascinated him and he somehow knew it was of major importance. He also remembers how good it felt to slide down a stairway banister or to climb a tree with pressure between his legs sending delicious sensations all through his body.

At an early age, he played doctor with another boy his age, and the frottage he enjoyed as they rubbed their penises together made him feel One with All Things.

He was older, maybe 9 or 10 years when he figured out how to actually masturbate while taking a shower. Immediately Bruce became a fan of self-pleasure, though, with puberty, he became extremely shy about his body being seen. Still, when his pubic hair sprouted and his penis grew bigger, it astonished him how incredible the sensations could feel with adult genitalia.

All through his 20s and 30s Bruce loved masturbating and did it often. Something kept tell him though, that there could be more to it. None of the books he read about Tantra and Taoist erotic cultivation provided simple how-to instructions. Finally, in his early 40s, he came upon Joseph Kramer’s video about male genital massage: FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN.

Having no playmates to try this with, he tried it on himself. In the process, he discovered what he soon named “Mindful Masturbation.” For 6 weeks he masturbated for hours every day, and did not ejaculate once! This was the Penis Paradise he had been looking for since his adventures playing doctor as a young boy. He was changed forever and lost most of his shyness and insecurities.

Bruce began to listen deeply to whatever his penis told him. This way he learned more and more about male masturbation, the penis, and he studied human sexuality. Soon he was hired to write professionally for the sex education site JackinWorld (dot) com, which he did for some years under the name “Bruce McFarland.”

Since then, his erotic activism is more radical and he uses his actual given name: Bruce P. Grether, AKA the Batemaster. He has hosted workshops and now does online masturbation coaching. In 2012 his best-selling book THE SECRET OF THE GOLDEN PHALLUS was published and with his handsome young friend Blue Tyger he created the Erotic Engineering site to explore advanced male self-pleasure practices.

Bruce considers himself a Missionary of the Male Mysteries and his work continues.

  1. Hi

    I always want to eat my own cum but don’t quite get there because once I have ejaculated I lose the desire to lick it up. How can I overcome this?

  2. I’ve occasionally parked after arriving home from work and called in to the phone bate line and jerked off in my car. Usually when I’d know that I wouldn’t be able to take care of it when I got in the house.
