 Masturbation Guide For Men
Although you may have received messages as a child or young teenage that masturbating is 'dirty' or unhealthy, scientists and psychologists have told us that this is simply not the case. Unless masturbating has become an obsession that precludes other healthy sexual interaction with a partner or is done in inappropriate places or at inappropriate times, masturbating is a natural and healthy expression of human sexuality. In fact, it can be used as a tool for learning what you need from a partner so that your sexual experiences will be satisfying and fulfilling for the both of you. Plus, in the modern world, it is often a safer option to pleasure yourself than to go out and find sexual release with a stranger that may be an unsafe method. Not to mention the fact that no one can get pregnant, disappointed or get hurt feelings via masturbation.
So what if you have never masturbated? How do you begin? First, be sure that you set aside enough time in a private location to ensure that you will be able to experiment in a relaxed and stress free environment. Pressure is not what you need when you are learning how to pleasure your body. You should be in a comfortable environment - perhaps in your bed or in the bathtub. Start by massaging and rubbing your body in general. You'll wake up your skin and senses and begin to arouse your body's responses. Try running your fingernails lightly up and down the underside of each arm or the inside of each thigh. Massage your chest and stomach, lingering on your nipples for a moment. For some men, squeezing and tickling their nipples is a great form of stimulation.
Let your mind wander to a scenario that you find particularly intriguing while you start to stroke your cock. But don't concentrate solely on your cock. Explore other areas of your body as well. Try gently pulling your balls or fondling them, squeezing gently. Squeeze your ass, and run a wet finger along the line from behind your scrotum to your anus. You might even try inserting your finger into your anus. Your prostrate gland is located about 2 inches inside, and if stimulated can result in an incredibly intense orgasm for a man.
Of course, most men will masturbate by focusing their attention on the penis itself, the head or tip of which is the most sensitive part. But there are a number of methods that you can use to pleasure your penis. Your goal is to create different forms of stimulation for the penis. Try by switching the hand that you normally use. Your grip and speed will be different, giving you different sensations. Add a lubricant to both your hands and form a tight tube with your fingers that you then run up and down your shaft. This is one type of masturbation that forms a kind of "pussy" with your hands that you are "fucking." You can do the same thing with one closed fist by lubing it up and then "penetrating" it with your cock. It may take some time for you to get just the right degree of tightness and speed, but the result will be worth the effort.
You can also alternate how hard or for how long you squeeze the shaft during this stroking. Try starting at the base and moving upwards, releasing your cock as the head slides through your hand, then going back to the base again. Then reverse the motion, starting at the head and stroking down to the base, releasing, and starting at the head again. Try these motions with a full fist, both fists, or by making a ring with your first or second finger and your thumb. This concentrates the pressure and sensation to a limited area and can be more intense across the areas that you are touching.
Some alternative ways of touching yourself may seem a little strange at first, but you should try them to see how they feel - you may find that you have found a new favorite form. Take both hands and lay them along either side of the shaft of the penis so that your fingers are touching the head of the penis. Now roll the whole shaft gently between your palms, as if you are trying to use a stick to start a fire. Start slowly, increasing the speed as you see how it feels. In the same position, try 'batting' your cock back and forth between your two open palms, adding a squeeze to the head as you get better at manipulating this motion.
Try rubbing two fingers, well lubed of course, along the vein that protrudes along the underside of the penis. The most sensitive point is at the base of the head, where it joins the shaft. You could also pinch or roll the skin over the vein along from the head to the base. Another thing to try is to lube your hand or fist and wrap it over just the head, and then twist your hand like you're trying to open a bottle. Then twist it back in the other direction.
If you want to try some more variations, explore the options available for men in the sex toy department. You can use a vibrator to stimulate the head of the penis, the ball, or even the anus - just be sure that you aren't going from the head to the anus and back again in order to avoid spreading bacteria. There are also "plastic pussies" you can purchase that allow you to recreate some of the sensation you get when fucking.
When you have become comfortable with masturbating and know what works for you, you can show your partner what to do as well. She can learn how to bring you to orgasm if you show her how you masturbate - and she may just find it incredibly arousing as well. Ask her to join you by bringing herself to orgasm and you can both learn about what to do to pleasure the other, becoming better lovers in the process.
