Female Masturbation: 5 Tips For When You Go Solo

0

The word masturbation still receives glares and mortified expressions in Indian society. The concept of female masturbation or self-pleasure for women makes Indian women blush. “Tauba, tauba” and “log kya kahenge” have been putting a stop to conversations about such topics since forever.

Indian Society & Female Self-Pleasure

We don’t sit around and talk about self-pleasure over chai and samosas. With barely any sex education provided to teenagers and the constant parde mein rehne do attitude of family members, there is minimal awareness about masturbation among women. Even jokes and memes about masturbation revolve around men. In fact, girls who receive sex education are only taught that sex leads to unwanted pregnancies.

Did You Know?

A survey of 100 Indian women revealed that 30% of the women masturbated daily!

Guilt and embarrassment have been an unfortunate part of the conversation about masturbation. Some women never indulge in self-pleasure and some confessed that the only way they had orgasms were through wet dreams. With most sex scenes in movies ending with the male orgasm as if it were the ultimate goal, female pleasure has been pushed further down the list of priorities.

If you are curious about masturbation or having trouble achieving orgasms with sex, here’s a guide to female masturbation.

1. Understand Your Body

A woman’s body has plenty of erogenous zones. Every touch can feel and make you react differently. And it varies from person to person. Swara Bhaskar’s character from Veere Di Wedding was happy with a vibrator. But that doesn’t guarantee it will do the same for you.

Apart from the vagina and clitoris, there are several erogenous zones like nipples, inner thighs, ears, neck and other body parts. Begin by understanding your body and what works best for you. Schedule some quiet time to explore your body and you will become aware of your wants and likes in the bedroom.

Once you schedule some ‘me’ time, it’s time to set the mood. Get comfortable, dress up in some sexy lingerie or just dress down to your comfort level. You can turn on some music and even light up candles. If you plan on using sex toys, make sure they are cleaned and powered up. Avoid disappointment due to dead batteries.

Masturbation, just like sex, is not just limited to physical gratification. Just as you connect with your partner during sex, self-pleasure allows you to bond with yourself. It will help you combat body-image issues and low self-esteem.

Ratna Pathak Shah’s Buaji in Lipstick Under my Burkha threw light on a topic that many women quickly shoved under the pleats of their sarees–the desires of the quintessential elder women in India.

3. Choose Your Inspiration

Did you know that you can turn yourself on by simply thinking about something sexy? Memories of your first kiss or even the hottie you met last week can turn you on. Let your mind fantasise about people or situations that send tingles down your spine. 

If that doesn’t do the trick, you can always turn to erotica or porn. Not all women prefer adult books and many enjoy good visual stimuli. There are plenty of women-friendly sites that produce a gentler or story-driven narrative. But it isn’t necessarily what every woman prefers. So let go of your inhibitions and search for something that brings you joy.

4. Take Your Time

Unlike movies and pornographic films, orgasm can’t be achieved at the flick of the wrist. The time it takes for one woman to reach climax is different from others. Remember, this is not a race and you are the only player. You don’t have to rush masturbation. 

Try new techniques or get freaky in a new place in your house. Hop into the shower or change it up by closing the curtains and laying on the couch. Take your time to enjoy all of the sensations you’re feeling throughout your body.
