What is the nuance of this sentence here:

> **自分の巣の中で オナニーしていろ 童貞**
>
> Translated as: "Go jerk-off in your nest, you virgin"

Does **-ていろ** imply to "to keep on doing something". So that a more literal
translation would be: _Keep on jerking-off inside your nest, virgin_

question
imperatives
The grammar of present progressive in imperative tense -ていろ
Yes, this -ていろ basically has a progressive meaning.

  * [How to translate て-form + ろ](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/14804/5010)

But いる is also a plain existence verb ("to be", "to stay", "to exist"). In
this sentence, the main message conveyed by いろ is " **stay in** your nest"
rather than "keep doing that action". The speaker wants him to go away, and
what he does is not very important. I think the original translation is more
natural.
