No two people like exactly the same things. I share my experience to illustrate that you may be frustrated with masturbation simply because you’ve been trying the same method over and over to no avail. Eventually, through plenty of trial and error, I figured out my love for intensity and bought myself a big ol’ Magic Wand to lovingly smoosh my clit with.īut remember: We're all different. Exhibit A: I need intense pressure or vibration to get off, but my sexual partners for the first five years of my sex life only executed light, fluttery rubs and tickles or suction-y cunnilingus - which I hated. When we take the time to explore on our own, though, both our solo and partnered sex lives benefit. We all like being touched in different ways, and sometimes, we’re not even sure what they are until we feel them. There's more than one way to stimulate yourself. With that said, let's dive into a few things to remember as we re-acquaint ourselves with… ourselves! 1. Take solace in the fact that many of us are still trying to figure out how the heck to pleasure ourselves on our own terms, and that even a "sexpert" like myself needs pointers from time to time. The first thing I want you to know is that, wherever you're at, you're not alone. Maybe you already masturbate, but you're not feeling satisfied with your practice. Perhaps you're feeling frustrated about masturbation, too, and you're looking for a way to get into it or enjoy it more. I know from my experience as an educator that there are many, many others who have yet to find a way they like to do it. Ultimately, though, I feel happy to have one reliable way to get myself off.
