What is Masturbation?

Solo play, self-love, jerking off, beating the meat, taking a self-guided tour, shaking hands with the milkman: It’s all the same and it’s all good!

Masturbation is the process of giving yourself some much-needed self-love. It includes touching, caressing, rubbing and well—basically stimulating your own private parts with the goal of reaching an orgasm.

For men, masturbation is mostly focused on the penis, but can also include other parts such as the scrotum and perineum (aka the taint) and on special occasions, the prostate. For women, orgasms can be obtained by clitoral, vaginal, anal, and other erogenous zones stimulation. Don’t limit yourself, you can always try a combination of things!

The most common suggestions when it comes to enhancing solo play are to keep it spicy and new. Set the mood, change hands, try different positions, add in erotica and porn and of course, find some fun new toys to play with. We love toys, and hope you do as well… if you haven’t tried any before, take full advantage of our promotion with Lovense for Masturation May and get your first toy.

You know we have a passion for history here at Nutaku, so we did some research into the origins of masturbation.

The History of Masturbation

5,000-6,000 years ago, in the 4th millennium BC, people practiced self-love. How do we know? Well, a tiny clay statue was found on the island of Malta that depicted a woman masturbating. In the earliest recording of history, ancient Sumerians had all sorts to say about the act. In fact, they believed one of their gods created the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers by masturbating and ejaculating into dry riverbeds (true story!).

We can’t leave ancient Greeks or Romans out of our studies, they also had lots of say about self-love. The Greeks considered it normal, while the Romans rarely mentioned it and considered it a substandard form of sexual release practiced more by slaves.

Hey…If masturbation is wrong, I don’t wanna be right! Call me a champion of self-love!

So, while some feel masturbation is a taboo topic (and that is fine), it really isn’t. We understand that many people were raised to believe it’s wrong. Well, we can tell you with all certainty, it is not wrong. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. You are not going to be punished for providing yourself with some much-needed self-love. Masturbation is normal, natural, and in many ways very beneficial to everyone. Basically, it’s totally safe sex and exceptionally fun!

International Masturbation Month

Do you remember I Touch Myself – a Song by Divinyls? Or maybe Dancing with myself by Billy Idol? Those musicians did their best to normalize masturbation and we thank them for their efforts.

The fact that masturbation is still taboo is why the International Masturbation Month has been created and is so important. Each year in May, International Masturbation Month is a dedicated event that aims to destigmatize masturbation, promote self-love and self-pleasure. 

This event was initiated in 1995, following the controversial dismissal of Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders. She had recommended the inclusion of masturbation discussions in schools as part of efforts to curb teenage pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections.

Following the dismissal of Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders, Good Vibrations, a sex-positive sex shop in San Francisco, took it upon themselves to challenge the stigma associated with masturbation by highlighting its advantages. To mark the occasion, the store's staff selected May, which coincides with the birthday of sex researcher Alfred Kinsey, who made a significant contribution to the study of human sexuality. 

Over time, International Masturbation Month has become a global event, observed yearly. The goal of this month-long celebration is to create awareness of the advantages of masturbation and to encourage people to embrace their sexuality in a positive and healthy manner. You may not know this but masturbation has actually a lot of positive impact on the body!

Can Masturbation Help Me? Is It Good for Me? Yes!

Masturbation has been the topic of many studies and the results have always been very positive for one’s physical and mental health. Let’s break it down. Self-pleasure can help reduce stress, relieve tension, and, of course, prevent anxiety and depression. It can improve sleep and increase your focus. It may sound funny, but it will heighten your mood. It can even enhance your sex life.

In addition to these benefits, women may also find that masturbation helps ease pregnancy symptoms, such as lower back pain.

It’s one of the safest roads to flooding your body with happy hormones like dopamine, oxytocin, endorphins, and serotonin! Sounds great, right? I mean, we have to wonder why you’re reading this when you could be masturbating right now!  

Using Sex Toys During Masturbation

Scene from Fap Goddess

There are all sorts of fun toys for men and women to utilize during masturbation. These toys include things like onaholes, vibrators, fleshlights, cock rings, prostate massagers, sex dolls of all shapes and sizes and much more.  

These sex toys have been designed by world-renowned physicists and quantum mechanics to maximize sexual pleasure (okay, maybe not, but we know some doctors have been involved in sex toy designs).

For men the best sex toys to enhance self-pleasure include onaholes or fleshlights, which are a popular type sex toy that fits tightly around the penis, and the Tenga Egg, which is a disposable squishy sleeve to slip yourself inside to help enhance orgasm.

For women, a clitoral vibrator like a bullet vibrator is an excellent way to reach orgasm without penetration. While insertable G-Spot vibrators have a longer shaft and are often curved with the purpose of reaching such an intense orgasm squirting may occur. But don’t feel bad if you can’t complete the act of female ejaculation, studies say only around 10% of women can.
