Compared to the orgasm, how would you rate the pleasure of the act of masturbating?

This question came up on my recommended: Have you ever wished you would orgasm more quickly while you were masturbating?
And one user said "for me, the actual act of masturbating is as enjoyable as the orgasm."

I was wondering how common this is. Note that the orgasm in question is from masturbation.

  • It varies based on the masturbation session.

  • It's less Pleasurable for sure, but it's not far off! Half the fun of masturbating is getting there! "The journey is the Destination".

  • nothing compares to giving pleasure to a girl.

  • The action of stroking my penis continually feels damn good. But cummng is the ultimate p. easure.

    How about you? Is rubbing your clit and fingering yourself equally as pleasurable as orgasm.

    A lot of people love edging because it allows a person to continue to masturbate. Rember us guys need to take a breaks after we cum. You girls are lucky. You can have multiple orgasms.

    • By the way. ThT picture is making me want to cum.

  • It is always better to be sexual with another person. Not only do i get pleasure but to know that i can pleasure a girl and in some way make that moment amazing for her and nothing else matters makes me feel good about myself as a man. 💓🔥🌹

  • The process of masturbation (or sexual intercourse) is pretty good in itself. Orgasm is a quick explosion of pleasure, while the act itself allows to stretch it over time.
    Obviously, actual sex is better in this regard because there's much more to do and change.

  • Both are different and so are the pleasures.

  • Both aren't pleasurable

    • Why not?

    • I don't know, using my hands doesn't feel pleasurable

  • Nothing can compare to the orgasm itself. Just love the feeling of cum shooting through my cock.

  • I think maybe 7-8 out of 10 if done right. Thing is, in the focus of trying to orgasm, I dont take time to enjoy the sensations fully along the way.

  • I find it more of an annoyance then anything enjoyable. But I does keep yhe prostate healthy so its a neccessary evil.

  • Before my transition 4/5 now 9

  • Sex beats everything we can all agree. However when you get to the 2 hour mark of masturbating it is just so sensitive you can blow at any moment. To me that better than cumming, but if it is just a quick 40 minute wank then the orgasm is the best part.

  • And if i get someone who do the things i want during imaging then it'll be more good and sexy

  • It varies so much with me. sometimes its very satisfying and sometimes not

  • Its not like the real thing

    😈

  • I love masturbating for at least a total of ,7 hours before actually cumming. Masturbating at random points in 2 days usually

  • I can't masturbate no more I feel like I'll go to hell

  • When i do it my self the orgasm is much much better. But if someone is doing it for me, then it is a different story 😉

    But it can be extremely good if i am by my self and do not come at once, but edge myself multiple times before i come. Then the orgasm is unreal. Still not always as good as with a girl/woman
