Why Masturbation If you're subbing to me here it is for masturbation related reasons. Whether you are receiving my explicit content and actually masturbating to it or you are reading my reviews on toys to masturbate with. So, I thought there should be at least one dedicated post to the general topic. Masturbation is incredibly important to your personal health. It continues to be EVEN if you're in a relationship and have "no reason" to do so. There's some controversy around referring to masturbation as "self care" but I do appreciate the attempt to normalize it in that way because it's important. If you're reading this and you have a vagina you may feel differently about masturbation than those with penises reading. But masturbation is for EVERYONE and it's normal. Masturbation and/or mutual masturbation are both great ways to have non penetrative sex with an incredible amount of intimacy. The actual focus of pleasure and higher likelihood of climaxing together (depending on your partner) can make for an entirely different experience. Masturbation can be really empowering and a way to experience autonomy which could really change sexual experiences for different kinds of trauma survivors. If a partner doesn't "allow" you to masturbate because they should "satisfy your needs" alone, I would consider that a red flag and at the very LEAST unacceptable. It's okay to take care of yourself and it's okay to talk about it.
