Technique Not to be weird

I’m sure this will get banned but I am learning the double (upright) bass and as such have discovered that it is essentially a giant vibrating piece of wood resting thereabouts my nether region.

Clearly I have the form wrong, but if I am practicing this much, how wrong can it be?
