Something we all do but are too afraid to admit it. If you think that I'm lying when saying we all do it, then take a look at the stats: 40 million Americans consider themselves regular visitors to porn sites.

Self-gratification. The act of "playing" with your genitals, for sexual excitement/pleasure; usually to orgasm.

Can also be accompanied by watching/reading/listening to arousing material e.g Porn, films, novels...

No matter what your gender/age/race, people masturbate. Some people do it everyday and more, some people do it when they don't have a sexual partner (these people are in the minority).

Female: Either stroking/rubbing, caressing (vigorously or not) the clitoris, or using long, phallic like objects to insert inside the vagina, and rubbing it back and forth.

Male: Stroking, rubbing, caressing, apparently also 'slapping' the erect penis.

When somebody pleasures themself by touching their gentital area

Masturbating is the act of self sexual satisfaction. Hands are useful yet sex toys can help.

99% of people do it at some time of their life. Most do it all through life.

The remaining 1% are the people who are so stubborn and pig headed, they never do the same as the rest of us.

While the majority of us are doing it, it is fascinating to find that most people wont discuss such things. If you do ask, only about 10% will even admit they have ever masturbated at all.

Very similar response to the number of people who are willing to confirm having a same sex experience. While most people do try it at some time in their life, few are willing to admit to it.

Back at the self satisfaction experiences.

Because teenage boys are so hung up on establishing and proving their manhood, not just to their mates but just as much to themself, masturbating is the one subject that is guaranteed to send them running if raised in a group. None are willing to admit his own hand was his first love.

Speaking to any group of teenage guys say.
I was reading last week that scientist have identified the chemical reason why masturbating give guys those small warts in the palm of their hand.

Then sit back and watch as they all try to discreetly examine their own hand despite the fact that when asked before hand almost all denied every doing it.

The reason this works on teenage boys so successfully is due to the absence of any brain power. At age 14 their brains fell trough their open mouth and then left the area all together. The brain will remain absent until they reach 21 years of age.

Masturbating supports industry.
If not for masturbating, adult magazines and adult videos and sex shops would be doing it hard. And then there is the WWW. Sex or more correctly the desire of mostly men to keep things in hand while they are see things. That hand action meant going on line was the best place to get what ever you liked.
