Masturbation, also known as self-pleasure, is an act of self-stimulation of genital organs to satisfy one's own needs and desires. Although people's view of masturbating is no longer as negative and strict as before, most people will try to avoid talking about this sensitive issue.
Masturbation allows us to explore our desires and find our sexual preferences. Masturbation doesn't just stop at hands, but you can also use sex toys.
Masturbation in men: The most common is the act of using hands to stimulate the genitals by stroking, touching, etc.
Masturbation in women: A little more diverse than men as women can choose to self-stimulate the vagina, clitoris, anus and other sensitive areas. In addition to stimulation inside the vagina (using hands or sex toys), there is also clitoral stimulation.
Masturbation is also a human physiological need that needs to be satisfied. Although not exactly the same as having sex, masturbation still brings many benefits to you not only in sexual health but also in understanding your body better, reducing stress, helping you be more confident in bed, etc.
Common misunderstandings - justifying masturbation
Myth 1: Only those who don't have a partner masturbate
On the contrary! Masturbation is actually extremely useful in relationships for the following reasons:
- The savior when sexual needs are out of phase, or one day one person wants it but the other is too tired
- Not enough energy for long-term love, just need quick satisfaction and rest
- Understanding what you want will help your partner satisfy you better
- Long distance love 🙂
Myth 2: Masturbation can cause you to have sexual disorders/erectile dysfunction
On the contrary, masturbation brings many physiological benefits such as: helping the body relieve stress, sleep well, etc. Masturbation only causes you to have sexual dysfunction/erectile dysfunction when you do it too much
Myth 3: Masturbation makes you physically weak
There is no scientific evidence that masturbation can affect fertility. In fact,
masturbation can sometimes improve sperm quality by stimulating regular ejaculation.
Benefits and harms of masturbation
There is a lot of misinformation and confusion surrounding the topic of masturbation. This is a sensitive issue that can easily cause shame and guilt for both genders, but it is still mostly female. So what are the benefits of masturbation that very few people want to talk about?
- This is a great way to discover yourself and your body because no one can understand your body better than you. And there's nothing more attractive than a partner who knows what they want and like, right?
- Masturbation helps release Endorphins, hormones that bring feelings of comfort, relaxation, stress reduction and happiness
- Masturbation helps improve blood circulation to the genital area, improving sexual and reproductive function.
However, too much of anything is not good,
excessive masturbation can bring the following harmful effects:
- Erectile dysfunction
- Loss of sensation with real sex
- Injury to the genitals due to a lot of friction
Masturbation techniques from A-Z for men
Masturbation also requires techniques to reach the desired level of satisfaction. Here are some tips you can refer to and apply:
1. Create a suitable space
Masturbation is not a shameful thing and should be done "quickly" so that no one will notice. On the contrary, create a suitable space and listen to emotions by:
- Turn off the lights
- Put on your favorite adult video
- Slowly perform foreplay with your body
- Relax and get ready to masturbate.
2. Switch up the position
Different postures and positions will bring different feelings, keep innovating by trying many positions. For example:
- If you often masturbate standing, now try leaning against the kitchen counter or wall, pushing your hips forward
- If you often lie down, try sitting up and leaning against the headboard
- Sitting in a chair is also a popular position
Changing hands is also a way to increase the experience. Try the squirrel with your non-dominant hand, the "weird" feeling is also a new change.
3. Don't ignore other sensitive spots
Our close friends, the testicles and anus, are characters that are often overlooked when it comes to masturbation. The testicles have nearly the same number of nerves as their "little brother". To impact this point, you can use your index finger and thumb to form a circle and use this circle to impact the area connecting the testicles and penis.
There is also the Prostate, known as the “male G-spot”, the golden key that leads you to an orgasmic experience. You can start by slowly inserting a finger to gently rub the outside and inside of the anus, then move your finger to the prostate. Accelerate and maneuver harder to "reach the finish line".
4. Using adult toys
Men also have a lot of options when it comes to sex toys like women. If used correctly and enough, the toy will be a very powerful right hand to have more new stimulation:
- Pocket vagina: Also known as masturbation cup, there are many choices from self-operating (masturbation cup) to automatic (sucking machine) automatic, with heat, with sound)
- Cock ring
- Stop - Start method: This method is simple: you need to stimulate your "little guy" to the point of orgasm, when you are close to ejaculating, then stop for about 30 seconds. Repeat 4-5 times before actually exporting.
- Stop-squeeze method: Like Stop-Start, stimulate until you are close to ejaculation, then use your thumb and index finger to squeeze the head and middle of the penis for about 30 seconds. Also repeat about 4-5 times
Note: The above two methods will be useful for those who want to masturbate for the longest time, helping to prolong masturbation time and when reaching orgasm, it will be extremely explosive.
