Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
I often see discussions on here about whether women on G@G masturbate, how often, and how do they do it. Often the responses are "no", "it is a sin", "it will only cause you to not enjoy 'real' sex", and "I would never do that." And often it is pretty much the same from guys. But at least in the Sexual Behavior topic, most women admit to having masturbated at least once, and many admit they still do, but not often.
So the questions that arise are "should women masturbate?" (or anyone?), "is it good to do?", and "how often should I do it." There are lots of opinions put up each time the question arises, but what do the "experts" think? What is their advice?
Well, The Huffington Post ran an article that is named (coincidentally) "13 Reasons Every Woman Should Masturbate Regularly".
I want to give a quick look at the "findings" and I will later post a link so that you may read the whole article if you wish. Remember guys, most of this works for you, too.
First, the article points out some facts that were surprising to me. According to a survey on sex health and behavior, while most women over 18 admit to having masturbated at least once, only 7.9 percent between 25 and 29 masturbate two to three times a week, 23.4 percent of men do. That actually seems like a very small number. So The Huffington Post interviewed doctors and came up with the article.
The most obvious find was that masturbating makes you happier. It does this by releasing endorphins that improve your mood and create a natural high. Heck, that enough sounds like a good enough reason!
Masturbating makes you more comfortable with your body and by exploring, you become more familiar with it.
You learn what feels best for you and can communicate that to your partner during sexual activity.
And we all know that it releases sexual tensions.
Masturbating can help with menstrual cramps. And, hey, it definitely is more fun than the heating pad.
Even when you are in a relationship, it can help make sex better by mixing things up. Plus, the more sex you have, the more you want, so masturbation can stimulate desire for "the real thing".
Masturbation can help you learn how to have multiple orgasms! Now who would not appreciate that?
No Downsides!
As I said these (and other) reasons can be found in the article at 13 Reasons to Masturbate. The pictures also came from that article.
Something the article did not get into that is definitely a plus is that it is a fun thing for partners to do together sometimes. That, with the reasons given in the article, should show most people the advantages of enjoying "Solo Sex". I hope you take the time to read the full article.
What Girls & Guys Said
27 28Very good and interesting take Red 😗
Thank you. I value your opinions, highly. :-)
Everybody who likes masturbation should masturbate. :)
Guys usually don't have any problems getting into it. Gals have historically held back, but are coming (pun intended) into their own, now.
Great take
Thank you Bigclit
The most frustrating thing about masturbation is when i desperately need to climax and find i simply can't no matter how hard i try. I've been experiencing this lately, and find myself abandoning it halfway with a feeling of frustrated disgust.
I still guess that vast majority who said that they didn't masturbated they actually must have done it, I just don't understand how can you not masturbate? O_o
Masturbation is healthy if done in control... too much can be bad..
What is "too much"? And in what ways are you meaning "bad"?
I dont knw about woman.. but a guy doing it once in a week is healthy.. too much is wen u are doing it like 5 times a week... it makes u feel less active ability to learn or grasp things becomes very slow overall the brain kind of goes numb..
Lots of men do it once a day and are quite smart and grasp things well, and also are very active. Perhaps it slows you down, but apparently not others,
May be.. and if u are one of those.. try once a week... u will feel the difference
I am 67. Once a week can even be a lot at times. lol. But after years of dating and decades of marriage, which included a lot of separation because I was in the Navy, I can tell you the long times between did not make me more active or smarter.
Well I am not as experienced as u are :D.. maybe it differs from person to person
What are waiting for lets wank just don't overdo it maintain a routine of like in every 2 days or 3 days, so you are not left exhausted yet you enjoy, I do the same. It's good to release stress, relaxes you and yeah! You won't be master for it in few times it will take weeks before you learn where to start when to press, where to rub, but once you excel in it! It will be like a video game or riding bike keep changing gears as per your need and keep pleasuring your body, until you reach destination and then explode. Skaddooozzzzz... Also, pleasuring yourself does not mean that you stop giving try to having usually hook up or get rid of partner from bed cause you have learned to control your vehicle better then he can, since you can feel every motion. Becoming asexual is most likely reason that people say you to avoid Masturbation.
People should masturbate if they want to.
True, and if they are thinking it is bad for them, this should help show that it can actually be good.
Should you just mind your own business? Oh FUCK YES !
I am a firm believer in "Practice what you Preach". Hope that is not too far over your head.
Shhhhhhh... You r a 67 year old sitting behind a monitor saying that women should masturbate. How needless is this whole "mytake" thing -_-
Hmm. More than 4 times the experience you have. (As you sit behind a monitor saying other people should mind their own business and that MyTake is needless. My, how you must love yourself. Oh well, somebody has to love you I guess. Enjoy it :-)
Red arrow just owned ya :) Respect Red arrow :D!
@unit1 ... what? I am gonna divide his comment into 3 parts and explain them... "More than 4 times the experience you have" I am not gonna say anything about this cuz i dont even know where he got that from -_- . "As you sit behind a monitor saying other people should mind their own business and that Mytake is needless" Yes , I firmly believe that a 67 year old dude should not be talking about this at all. It should be a woman at least cuz i am sure they know better about this than he does. (unless if he is a shemale...) . "My, how you must love yourself. Oh well, somebody has to love you I guess. Enjoy it " YES? Ofc i love and appreciate myself very much and i am surrounded by friends and relatives so basically he didn't say something wrong in this part. That is why i didn't reply...
Actually it is probably a lot more than 4 times the experience. It was simply based on the fact that I have lived more than 4 times as long. But the experience part is definitely much more because at your age you could only have a very few years sexual experience. I thought even you should have had the brain power to grasp that concept, but I guess I need to explain to a lower intelligence. Your next point is that I should mind my own business. When I point out that you should, you change to my age, which does not figure into discussions of who should mind their own business. And why in that little mind of yours do you think that there is anything that a person should not discuss simply because they are older (and smarter) than you? Your next point was that it should be a female talking about it because they know better than I. Many have no idea about many of the points, such as the release of hormones, and I did, so I shared that knowledge which they did not have.
And I don't know anything about shemales. You will have to tell me. You only need to read the opinions from the women on her to know that they agreed with me and appreciated the Take. but that would require you being able to read that much. So much for your explanations.
So just bcz u are 4 times older than me it means that u r smarter than me. Yeah , that really sounds smart... About the age , yes. It sound really creepy. A 67 year old sitting there and telling women why they should masturbate... that sounds creepy and pervy. WHETHER WOMEN WANNA DO IT OR NO , ITS NON OF YOUR BUSINESS. Like why in the world would you start talking about that since nobody asked you to? No dont say that u just wanna help ! We dont need unasked for advices. The last point , yes. Many of them dont have any idea about the hormones thing. AND AGAIN , they dont need unasked for INFORMATION ! Especially that u r not a doctor and i really think that a smart person would go and ask a doctor about masturbation. NOT A GAGER !
what? ofc they will appreciate anybody's help. These are called stupid people. for taking advices on these things from a gager ,,, not a doc...
Really. lol How many women do you know that go to their doctors to ask about masturbation. Forget about the experience I have gained from living 4 times as long as you, that one point shows which of us is the smarter. And this whole site is dedicated to sharing of information between the sexes. Oh, you didn't figure that out either? And on a site discussing opinions, anything can be anyone's business. "We dont need unasked for advices." Every Take on here is unasked for advice. It is a Take not a question and represents the Owner expressing his or her opinions on what they desire. (something else that escaped your brain, huh?) As I said, read the opinions and comments to see whether others appreciated what I said and if they thought it was none of my business. Or maybe you should just go back outside and play with the other kids.
HOw many women go to their doctors to ask about masturbation = the amount of smart women that wouldn't talk and advice related to this thing from a gager. that simple. And yeah that is exactly why i hate mytakes. we dont need extra advices ! we dont everybody's philosophy ! and some people dont even know if what they r writing is correct but just post it to gain xper points. Okay , what if the advice from the mytake doesn't works out for you? this site is for sharing information but who said that all the information is correct? the same goes for ur take. You are not a doctor , u r a gager. So again , anyone with at least 1% iq , would ask a doctor about something related to hormones. Not a gager. And i can see some people agreeing with me...
that some people are agreeing with me*
Your drivel has gotten to the point that I am having a hard time interpreting what you are trying to say. Such as "HOw many women go to their doctors to ask about masturbation = the amount of smart women that wouldn't talk and advice related to this thing from a gager." Are you trying to say that all women that would not take advice from this site will go and ask their doctors? Obviously that is not true, so I don't know what you are trying to say. "we dont need extra advices ! we dont everybody's philosophy ! and some people dont even know if what they r writing is correct but just post it to gain xper points." First, you need advice on how to write so that people can understand you. Opinions can always be wrong. They are only opinions. MyTakes are opinions (*face palm*) You haven't figured that out yet? And I included a reference for people to see the larger picture. And it continues that way. Please use some common sense for a change!
With due respect , i really believe that u r either really , like really stupid or just deformed. Either ways , u have to see a doc.
Often people of lower intelligence will think that people smarter than they are are stupid, so I understand why you believe that. But how on earth could you possibly come up with something so stupid as concluding someone is deformed from their opinions or better arguments? I am not there yet, but as much as you are carrying on an ignorant rant on my Take, I am quite close to simply blocking you.
@Sam19XX First, what does a fifteen year old know about what a sixty seven year old should or should not post? Second, I highly doubt you'd talk to your grandparents or parents this way. If you do, I hope you get grounded for the next year. Third, learn to English . Fourth, check your facts. Masturbation is just one of many topics for women that is taboo. We are not to talk about it, we're to pretend we don't have any urges whatsoever, to pretend that we have no bodily functions at all. That's why so many guys on this site ask if girls farting, burping, pissing, shitting and all the rest is really a thing. Girls who don't ask questions here, are very likely not going to a doctor about their needs. I have never asked a question about masturbation on the internet, other than to ask why I fail at it. I have been advised to go see a doctor, but will I? Probably never. Because it's embarrassing and about a topic that is considered taboo.
Stupid= You just proved that u r so i do not have to add anything else. Deformed = Mental defect in ur nervous system causing a problem in ur hand-eye co-ordination.
And just disagreeing with my opinion , doesn't makes you any smarter. Maniacs also have their own opinions and point of views which seem wrong to us.
DUDE i swear to god that i am laughing at this. You are like trying so hard at this and trying to make me mad n stuff and u r terrible at it.
I am basically going to do what seems right to me. block u , block her and done !
Opinion owner still has a lot to develop mentally. This is a standard process of a teenager human development, which can take as much as 10 years starting from his age (or some may never grow up, which is sad). That's what I assume. Or just trying to be the big troll on the internet. On @Red_Arrow s side, thank you! It's been entertaining and interesting. This take is awesome and opens quite some eyes here and there ;-) :) :D Keep up sharing invaluable information, facts and wisdom. I love science and even more if people agree with them or argue better in more accurate and more true statements.
Yesss
Yes, masturbating is a must for me! Fun, healthy, relaxing, amazing and enjoyable. I totally love to wank! Nothing can stop me from loving it.
It is scientifically true!
And *they* keep telling me it stinks and is bad and dirty and intimating and forbidden...
Pfft. Get a life or get out of my presence.
And wanking can keep you warm in Iceland. lol More power to you! :-)
Hahaha XD good one. But not for long and efficient :P
Hmm I think that people have a right to be able to masturbate and have it not frowned apon however, I don't agree with people throwing information out about how, why and where they masturbate. It is simply just irritating.
True, but on here they give out much more personal information, too. Some of the things shared absolutely amaze me, especially knowing a bit about the person giving that information and wondering how they could do that. But, they do it.
Still you have to respect the fact that the site allows you to be anonymous. Great job debating that kid below great points made on both sides until it became a shit-chuck, however still entertaining to read.
I did not think much of his arguments. This Take was appreciated by many and was promoted by the admins. for him to jump in and say "Should you just mind your own business? Oh FUCK YES !" was totally uncalled for! His argument was mainly my age, not what was in the Take, which does not matter to the subject. "I firmly believe that a 67 year old dude should not be talking about this at all". Half of that was that I am male, which also does not matter on a site dedicated to conversations between males and females. Then his inference about "shemales". Two others joined in to tell him that he was wrong and he ended up blocking one as well as me. No, I do not agree that he made great points. But I am glad that you enjoyed reading it. :-)
Then that is where we differ, if i may interject.. he is only 15 so I wouldn't get hurt by it, you could just simply have thought, shame... rather than dragging it out into a moronic war which almost certainly brought you down to his level.
True that he was only 15, which he really needs to consider when attacking people, especially older and more experienced. And I was not hurt. I simply stated that he should "Practice what you Preach". and he flamed with the age thing. I tried to point out that the age gave me more experience and was not a reason to be attacked for it. I saw it getting "moronic" and told him that I would block if he continued his attacks. Note I did not simply block and run, but told him that I would not allow the attacks to continue. And you saw his response. No I do not feel I was being moronic, and I do not intend to see this discussion turning into a drawn out mess like that was becoming.
Only thing i will say in that case is you misunderstood what i was saying and not to assume each person is the same. OG out.
Despite sex bombarding us everywhere in the " media " we are also all damned for our sexuality... you ladies more so than guys.. no wonder there are so many frigid women with no sex drive , because it has been burned into the subconscious that sex is " wrong" & " disgusting " , therefore a lot of women just shut down sexually a result of this repressive bullshit. Whilst men are all ( according to the feminazi dominated " media " ) disgusting , stupid , sex crazed rapists , what a fucked up world we inhabit !!!
LOLOLOLOL the second picture.
It was a gold necklace with a diamond pendant. She made me take it back and get the vibrator. ;-)
Nice take!
Thank you kind lady! :-)
Yes woman should masturbate
Not just 'yes', but 'hell, yes!'
WHAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE HANDS?
hump a pillow?
I SEE...
Seriously, why not? Stop the taboo and the religious bullshit, it's healthy.
My ideal match loves masturbating. She has a high sex drive, but no interest in sex without love, hence, she masturbates a lot until she decides to have sex with a special person.
P. S.: This is not a double standard.
But I have been told, if you to that you become deaf, blind, and an asteroid will blow up the earth. Why do you think dinosaurs have disappeared?
Which is why 99% of the world population is deaf and blind, and we were all blown off the planet thousands of years ago and don't exist. :-)
Didn't knew that, I should go outside more often.
Glad to help. But hold on to something when you go outside or you will get sucked into the void.
