Masturbation: which areas to stimulate and for what benefits?

Masturbation is a subject that fascinates men and women alike, even if it’s rarely discussed. Also known as “onanism”, it has been democratized for both sexes, although it is sometimes a symbol of shame for the former and liberation for the latter. In either case, it brings many benefits to body and mind.

Masturbation can be practiced solo, as a couple or in a group. It can be done by hand or with a sextoy or object (sometimes even edible). Here, we love doing it in front of a camera. It’s normal, and its frequency varies according to your desires. So we can’t give you any figures, and in a way, that’s just as well! Above all, you should know that you can do it every day without any negative impact on your health. In fact, the opposite is true. Here’s how it works.

Thanks to masturbation
Everyone will agree that masturbation has one immediate benefit: pleasure. Whether you climax or orgasm, or neither, you enjoy it in every case. If you reach your goal, your body relaxes, you’re relaxed, thanks to the endorphins produced during the action. And who doesn’t love that soothing sensation that follows excitement and orgasm?

That’s one of the reasons we love masturbation, because it can help us to calm down or sleep. It acts like an analgesic, producing happy hormones. It evacuates the stress and nervousness that sometimes trouble us and prevent us from sleeping. So, better than a sleeping pill, a good hand-job.

Another positive point: discovering your own body. Whether you’re a man or a woman, you learn to discover what turns you on, how, at what pace, etc. You discover the mechanism of pleasure at home and refine your desires. For men (and sometimes for women too), you learn to control your orgasm, which helps you improve your sexual performance. It’s like a “home” workout that helps you prolong your erection. Or even your ejaculation, if you’re the premature type.

Which erogenous zones for women?
The choice is yours. Women have many erogenous zones, some of them surprising. They are stimulated by caresses, kisses and other actions, and become very sensitive. Some are classics, like the clitoris, which remains a must. After that, it’s how it’s stimulated that makes it more or less sensitive.

Buttocks and breasts can also lead to orgasm on their own. Yes, they can. When the breasts are stimulated, they tend to harden and the nipple starts to point, making it even more sensitive. You may also be surprised to learn that the skin of the armpits, very thin and sensitive, is an erogenous zone for women. Like the lips, the back of the neck, the inside of the hands, the earlobes, the stomach, the hollow of the knee, the thighs, the ankles, the feet, the toes… In short, the choice is vast when it comes to giving a woman pleasure. For some, you can even lick or suck the toes.

Which erogenous zones for men?
For men, the erogenous zones are generally more centered on the sexual organs. Especially around the penis. These include the testicles and groin area, as well as the contour of the phallus. Yes, it may seem trivial, but the penis is the most sensitive area, and particularly the glans, as it contains numerous sensory sensors. You can also extend to the anus and surrounding area, either with your fingers or tongue. It’s often a question of preference and letting go.

However, there are also other erogenous zones for men, such as the lips, neck, earlobes, inner thighs, back, buttocks, nipples and feet. All in all, there’s quite a lot of similarity between the two sexes. After that, it’s mostly a question of the way of touching or the context that will differentiate the two.
