Benefits of Masturbation

A lot of people are familiar with masturbation (especially men) but most of them aren’t aware of the benefits of masturbation.

Benefits for both sexes

Masturbation is the most natural and the safest way to satisfy your sexual desire. Masturbation is great for people who don’t have a regular partner to sleep with.

Masturbation prevents single people from sleeping around and participating in unsafe activities. Causal sex is a known way of contracting terrible STDs.

It has been proven that masturbation greatly relieves depression and contributes to a higher sense of self-worth.

Masturbation can prevent people from cheating on their partner. As in most relationships, one person has a higher sex drive than the other. Masturbation provides a balancing effect and as a result contributes to a more harmonious relationship.

Masturbation is a natural and pleasant way to induce sleep.

Benefits of female masturbation

Masturbation has many positive effects on women.

It has been proven that masturbation improves hormonal balance in women. It increases blood flow to the genital region thus contributing to overall sexual function. However, the most important benefit is that masturbation helps women learn more about their sexuality and sexual response as well as become more familiar with their own bodies.

While masturbating a woman becomes more familiar with her erogenous zones. While experimenting with various kinds of sexual stimulation a woman realizes what parts of her body are most sensitive to stimulation. Thus she can improve the sexual relationship with her partner by letting him know what to do during foreplay.

A woman who has never achieved orgasm can learn how to do so through masturbation. By experimenting with various sex toys she can find out the different ways she can achieve orgasm. For example, while playing with a penis shaped sex toy, such as a dildo or a vibrator a woman realizes how much time she needs for to achieve orgasm. She can also learn what type of friction and pressure turns her on the most.

While playing with clitoral sex toys (such as clitoral vibrators, for instance) a woman realizes how her clitoris should be caressed in order to get maximum pleasure.

And lastly, masturbation is a sure fire way to prevent getting pregnant or contracting an STD.

Benefits of male masturbation

In 2003, an Australian research team found that frequent male masturbation considerably reduced the development of prostate cancer. The published study also indicted that ejaculation through masturbation is safer than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because unlike sex with a partner masturbation doesn’t result in contracting STDs.

Masturbation also helps teach a man how to control his ejaculation. He can learn how to speed it up or even delay it.

Masturbation allows men to explore their bodies just like it can for women. Many men aren’t aware of the fact that their anus is very sensitive to sexual stimulation. While experimenting with various anal sex toys a man can find that anal stimulation is very pleasurable. After that a man can teach his female partner to stimulate his prostate with her finger or with a sex toy for additional sensation.

Through masturbation a man can learn how to spice up his sexual relationship with his partner. By the way, having realized that anal stimulation is very pleasurable a man can suggest that his partner use an anal sex toy on him. This also allows the woman to get more comfortable with anal sex and steer her towards trying it herself.

As you see, masturbation has even more benefits than you thought! Get pleasure and take advantage! Have fun!
