Masturbation is a perfectly normal and healthy activity. But exploring your body for the first few times can be a confusing and even embarrassing experience – especially if you’re a beginner. Here’s what you need to know to have enjoyable and private personal time.
Check Your Surroundings
Make sure you’ve found a nice private place where you won’t be interrupted. Double-check that the door is locked. Turn on the radio on to drown out any accidental noise you might make. Just as importantly, make sure that you’ve got sufficient time to get things done. While it’s possible to rush one out, you don’t want to get caught full staff when it’s time for dinner.
Get Some Reading Material
Every guy starts has a porn collection, whether it’s a magazine of swimsuit models hidden under the mattress or enough adult movies to open up your own store. When it comes to sex, guys are extremely visual so it helps to have something to look at. It doesn’t matter how vivid your imagination is, “reading material” makes your masturbation experience so much better.
Lube Makes It Better
While some guys are perfectly fine going “dry,” lube makes your whole experience much smoother. The smooth, wet feel of lube allows you to pump faster and easier. Additionally, it makes your masturbation experience feel much more real, which can lead to a much more satisfying orgasm. Once you’ve finished applying lube, then you’re ready to start.
Start Stroking Away
Speaking generally, start by gripping your erect shaft with your dominant hand, the one you write with. Your grip should be firm but not too tight. Slowly move your hand up and down the shaft while maintaining your grip. As you build up experience, you’ll start trying little tricks like squeezing your tip, changing your speed, and even switching up hands. But for masturbation beginners, the basic one-handed stroke should be more than enough to get the job down. Remember the basic rule of masturbation: If it feels good, then keep doing it.
Have A Disposal Mechanism Handy
Whether it’s a box of Kleenex or an old sock, you’re going to need something to take care of the “evidence” afterwards. And be sure you clean up – either by flushing the Kleenex or doing the laundry yourself.
