Had a (drunken) discussion with friends about how often someone masturbates, and if it's considered normal. Wanted to get more input, though I kept the polls relatively broad for now.
| Never | 0 | |
| A few times per year | 0 | |
| At least once A month | 3 | |
| At least once per Week | 15 | |
| Every day once | 16 | |
| Every day multiple times | 4 |
Whatever your friends said about their masturbation frequency, it's highly likely they were lying. We're supposed to be open and honest about sex these days, but it's a topic that many people find embarrassing and shameful due to social conditioning.
A real man doesn't jack off, he goes out and finds a woman to have sex with, right? And good girls shouldn't be interested in sex of any sort, right?
Credible surveys have found that virtually every man and the majority of women masturbate at some point in their lives. Most guys do it lots in their teens, often several times a day, but the frequency gradually falls as they get older. Some young women are also avid masturbators, but some don't do it at all. I don't recall ever reading anything about the frequency of masturbation as women age, but my gut feeling is that those who do it possibly continue at the same frequency for longer than guys do.
The sexual drive varies considerably between people, and what's normal for you is normal for you. As for myself, it was normal for me to masturbate at least three or four times a day when I was a teen. This drastically declined when I joined the military and the opportunities for it were reduced, but it was still normal for me to have one session in the morning on waking and one before going to sleep. During the decades when I was married or in long-term live-in relationships, I still masturbated often, but having sex was more enjoyable, so I tended to refrain, mainly because it made orgasms during sex more intense. Another factor is that many women can feel insecure if they know their guy is jerking off.
Somewhere in my fifties, my need for regular orgasms declined, so now it's down to just two or three times a week.
I masterbate 3 to 4 times a day. If I get laid,the fact that I've Jacked off already leads to longer lasting sex
