Sex is a very touchy topic to openly discuss. Masturbation or self-pleasure is just as touchy. (No pun intended.) It is because most people are taught to think of sex, including masturbation as a dirty carnal sin. People tend to think if you masturbate, you are over sexed–or a nympho or your partner does not please you and therefore inept. Even though we do not talk about it, masturbation is as normal a human characteristic as needing self awareness, love or spirituality. Yes, I said spirituality.
Self-pleasure is accepted and expected among men; however, the opposite is expected of women. In spite of the sexual revolution, female masturbation is still somewhat taboo. Couples generally do not discuss the subject of masturbation which is a shame because if men and women were more open to the possibilities of self-love then there opens up the possibility for couples to really spice up their sex life and for more intense and pleasurable orgasms. How can you tell/show your partner what works for you, if you don’t know?
Self pleasure is the only way for a person to really learn their body and what pleases them. To really get the most from love-making with your sexual partner you must know your own body first. This is true for both men and women. You must explore your own body and listen to what it tells you. Self pleasure and exploration is the key to better love-making. Masturbation can be a very empowering learning tool for women – it teaches us about our bodies, and how it responds to sexual stimulation. Many normal and healthy women only experience an orgasm while masturbating, or find it is their most intense type of orgasm. I can not tell you the number of times my close friends or clients have told me that they have never experienced an orgasm with their partner.
While it is certainly unfounded and untrue, the majority of people believe that women are less sexual than men. Where do you think the term ‘cougar’ comes from? We are led to believe that women think about sex and desire sex much less. Society creates outcasts of women who are openly sexual. We are seen as promiscuous or as whores. This results in women believing they should not have strong sexual feelings and desires. Unfortunately, many women are ashamed to admit they become ‘horny’. This results in women introverting and denying their own sexual feelings and desires. While a woman’s desire for sex may change with time, they are overall just as sexual as men. If a woman accepts that she is equally as sexual as a man, she is more likely to feel comfortable with her desire to ‘please herself’. Once you know what you enjoy sexually, it will be possible to share that information with your partner and ask for what you want and need sexually.
Enjoy,
