didn’t we all grow up needing to be secretive? is it because of the adage of how ‘everyone thinks women are hot’ so like even straight women would get turned on more by their own moaning?

like as a guy i don’t even…have the impulse to involve my voice in it at all

    Girls tend to masturbate less

    Is this real? I don’t see how it could possibly be real.

      I for one have maybe done so 5 times in my 40 years of life and do not feel the urge to do so. Only times I did I was drunk or high and I don’t do that stuff. I rather just relax.

        @Ataraxia there’s so much diversity in the world!

        I was probably doing it like 10x a day when I was a teen. Went to an all girls boarding school and it was just well known that most people there did it.

      Start a bit later on average and rub one out a bit less than guys. There’s a fair chunk of the female population that have never masturbated. Shocking I know! Not as socially acceptable perhaps? 🤷

        This doesn’t tally at all with my experience.

        I wonder if it varies from culture to culture and how much of it is influenced by self-reporting.

        Are there actual statistics about this, or are you just saying that bc it’s what you believe?

        No they are just not as horny at that age. I read that woman are the horniest in their 30s and guys in their 20s, and it kind of matches my own experience.
