Guys masturbate and so do women. It is nothing to be ashamed about. There are some experts who believe that every man will masturbate at some time or another in their life. There is no reason not to. In fact, studies have shown that masturbating allows you to relieve some stress, feel better and get better sleep too. You may think you know all about masturbating; that it feels great, right? That may be correct but there are some other things you may not have known about masturbating.

Masturbation is Not Abnormal

preview-full-30-reasons-to-stop-masturbatingYou may think at times that there is something abnormal about how you are masturbating. However, many of the experts in the sex field have agreed that there is nothing that is abnormal about how men masturbate. There are different techniques that can be used and you can do it a little bit or a lot. Many people are too stuck up on what is normal and what is not. When it comes to your masturbation, you can do things how you please. You can do things however they may feel good. You can use your hands, sex toys, oil and other things to masturbate. There is no right or wrong way for you to masturbate.

Masturbating is Safe for the Most Part

If you want safe sex, have it with yourself. This is something that has been said by many. If you are only masturbating and not having sex, that means that you won’t get any STDS. You also won’t have to worry about strains in your muscles from lifting up a partner or trying to do certain sex moves. You don’t have to worry about the awkward sexual moments either. However, if you are masturbating too much without oils or lubricants you could cause irritation on the penis. If you are too rough when you have sex, you could injure your penis. There is something called a penile fracture that you have to be aware of. As long as you want the safest sex possible though, masturbation is the way to go.

Supercharging Your Own Sex Life

Do you need to learn a few things about your own body? Do you want to start controlling how long you have until you ejaculate? These things and more you can do while masturbating. If you want to start supercharging your own sex life, you can do that by masturbating. You will also learn what you like and what you don’t. Additionally, if you feel that you need sex more often than what your partner wants, masturbating is a way for you to stay true to the relationship. When you masturbate, you also keep your body in tune of your sexual needs and you can share those with your partner.

Take Care of Your Strokes

preview-full-MASTURBATING605While masturbating is not abnormal and it is safe, you do need to take care of your strokes. The ways that you stroke yourself need to mostly simulate a true sexual experience. If you do it in other ways, you could mess with your ejaculation. If you stroke your penis rapidly or you squeeze too hard, this causes messed up ejaculation. There is also something that is called retarded ejaculation. This is more common than you might think. If you aren’t masturbating similar to actual sex, the retarded ejaculation could occur. This is a type of dysfunction when it becomes tough to even reach climax when you are having sex with someone else.

Increased Risk of Prostate Cancer

There really isn’t much prove to this but it has been shown in small studies so it should be mentioned here. Smaller studies have shown that those who rush to ejaculate early when they are younger will increase their risk of having prostate cancer in the future. Again, this is not something that has been fully proven or even tested in bigger studies. These are some of the things that you may not have known about masturbation. Just know that masturbation is normal and it is safe. You are doing what men do and taking care of yourself. You may not know it but women do it too so there is nothing wrong with it.
