10, I think. But of course that's a little hard to say. I am going to guess that most people are going to fall into the 9-14 range somewhere depending on when puberty hit and all that. Curious about those that started masturbating pre-puberty (or well after it began).

I found the pool jets at a very young age. Like, nearly ten years before puberty.

Honestly I do not remember - but I'm guessing 11-14. My daughter on the other hand seems to have located her clit when she was a baby - girls always learn faster!

I started when I was about 8 or 9 years old. When I first started to jerk it, I didn't even ejaculate properly. I think most of my cum was precum. Even though I had orgasms at that young age, semen didn't come out. When I finally ejaculated semen I was surprised. I was wondering what the hell all the white stuff was and why it flew out of my penis.

Now I'm curious to know when people had their first sex dream. I had mine when I was about 4 or 5. Maybe it wasn't sex, but I dreamed of making out with a brunette wearing a bra. Probably from looking at all the lady underwear ads.

On a side note, I wish parents would talk to kids about these things before they reach the age of 10. Less confusion.

My husband told me a similar story. He used to masturbate and have an orgasm, but he didn't ejaculate. I have heard that from other guys as well.

I was 12 the first time I masturbated. I had an orgasm and I was like, "Wow!" Needless to say, I kept on doing it!

I remember the first time I started playing around down there, around 10. It was about 6 months later when I started finished in earnest (not literally).

I was around 8 or 9 when I started, however I was older when I first had an orgasm.

I can remember humping my pillow and the like at around age 8-9, but I didn't have a proper orgasm (that I can remember, at least) until I was around 12.

I honestly did not discover masturbation till I was pregnant with my first kid at 17 I was so horny I couldn't stand it and her dad was not around. I knew all about sex had been having sex for a lot longer then I should have been. Then one day I was nosing around in the attic of the apartment we had just moved into and found some erotic story books and figured it out from there on..

Heck, I'm fixing to be 30 in October and still haven't figured out what completely gets me there. Though I did touch myself at a younger age, but not masturbated until recently. I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Same here! I think I start masturbating around 7-8... but I don't think I actually had an orgasm until 11-12

I remember touching a lot when I was a small child. (And getting yelled at if someone saw me, "Stop that! Girls don't do that!" Nice.) I remember trying to stick things in my butt (small things, I was clueless) when I was about 4 or 5. I had the right idea, that "something goes in somewhere" but didn't have it quite right.

I didn't actually attempt to have an orgasm until I was revving up into sexual experience at about 16. I was ready to have sex with My Man and I thought, "I'd better figure out how this orgasm thing works." I had them in my sleep, but I took a few tries before I could actually do it to orgasm. The first orgasm I ever caused myself, oddly enough, as an anal orgasm. Despite only touching my clit. I think I just hadn't located all the muscles, yet. The next time (which, knowing me, was either later that day or the next day) it worked the way it was supposed to, the whole thing, everything involved in the orgasm.

I was really proud of myself, and had no one to tell. I really wasn't going to call up a friend and say, "I gave myself an orgasm." It didn't occur to me to tell My Man. I have NO idea why.

I was young too and would not only get yelled at but get beatings for masturbating. It didn't matter - I didn't understand what I was doing but it felt so darn good.

Now that my husband and I are so active, I understand that I was multi-orgasmic even then for a I would have an orgasm and wait a minute or two and start again - probably having five or more orgasms in a session.

The really bad thing though was that I equated coming with getting a beating because if mom saw it on my clothes or sheets, I'd be in big trouble.

So my husband is currently trying to help me to overcome that urge to hold back and not come.

I'm sorry you were treated so badly. I don't understand people who are mean to children. Everybody masturbates. How could anyone harm a child for a natural behavior?

I was told that it was not normal and it was not right and that "bad" people did that. I'm honestly still not over it.

The sorta funny part is that I was talking to my dad a couple of years ago (parents are divorced) and I mentioned something about how mom had said they only had sex about twice a year and he said something about, "Well, I suspected she was taking care of herself and didn't need me."

Wow.

I was 13 or 14, I think... Unfortunately, I had no idea what it was and became kind of "addicted" to it. I felt terrible and because at the time I was still Christian, I became convinced that orgasms were the devil's work. I even prayed to God to make it stop. It was awful, and I totally wish someone would've explained to me that it was OKAY~!
After a few years, though, I finally did catch on, and these days I love masturbating and exploring myself.
