We all like to get off, and all if not most of us masturbate or have masturbated, but lets break down the reasons we masturbate. Now that you've done that, what is the reason you most often masturbate for?

Yes, most often means the main reason...you have to choose one! I'm so mean. Lol

Since this wasn't multiple choice, I had to go with boredom. When there's nothing to do or nothing inspiring, why not get off? I mean, I really could have clicked them all...each time is a different reason but the majority of the time is boredom.

Missing: To keep my prostate healthy.

Of course I masturbate just for health reasons... not.

I guess the BIGGEST reason is because it feels good, but like Stormy said, I could fit into any number of those reasons since it's never the same.

For many reasons listed...I need to get off frequently, because it feels good, I need to review toys, I want to try toys, boredom, prostate health, stress relief, insomnia, the thrill.

I masturbate because everything about masturbation is great. Especially how it feels.

I agree with Stormy - this seems more like a multiple-choice question because I masturbate for different reasons. I use to do it because of a lack of sex with my wife - thankfully that's not necessary anymore.

These days it's mostly stress release - but of course there are other forms of stress release. I pick masturbation because it combines the endorphins with the release.

I was really torn on the choices. I wish had been multiple choice. I chose "frustration from lack of sex". My husband has a low sex drive, where as I'm always redlining. Masturbation is a sure thing. lol

My main reason for doing it is for the natural analgesic, haha. If I have a headache or cramps or feel a migraine coming on, an orgasm usually works quicker than an asprin. My secondary reason is for my partner's enjoyment, but he enjoys watching me play with myself or strip or whatever without necessarily cumming, so it's not usually as frequent.

I do it because it feels good and sometimes when I'm bored. Also helps me relieve some stress.

Sorry, I viewed "good for the prostate" as a benefit, not a reason.

~ it just feels so good yes! But I chose "to relax abd unwind" because the rush if endorphins that I feel from cumming makes me more relaxed. And totally puts me in a much better mood. ~

We really don't masturbate much, unless one of us is away from the other for a period of time, or just to "put on a show" for the other. That happens once in a while, but the partner usually jumps on or in, before too long!!!

Thank you. I thought I was the only one who wanted sex when she gets a headache. It always helps mine clear up. Better then Advil.
