Shouldn’t have to say it this late in the 20th Century but maybe 10 years ago I remember a round table on a now-defunct competitor to Bust and Jezebel called, I think, Cherry, where most of the 20-something women said, basically, “yeah, growing up we were all taught that masturbation was only something boys did.”

Back in the 20th Century not only was masturbation something women weren’t supposed to do, it was supposedly something only unhealthy, degenerate men and boys did!  It was considered far “healthier” to… go to a brothel or “street walker.”

Not saying there’s anything wrong with sex work, but there was something seriously wrong behind that attitude that hiring someone else was preferable to masturbation!

Note: it’s ok to DYI!

Also no, so long as you’re able to do everything else you need and want to do in a day you’re probably not doing it “too much.”  

I probably shouldn’t be so dour about men halting sex and then wanking themselves porn-style instead of coming the “normal” way during sex.  Because, to be fair, for about 85% of women wanking after sex is the “normal” way to come, isn’t it?

And to be even more fair, I suspect this stupid porn trick has done quite a lot to lower rates of unwanted, unplanned pregnancy and (though to a lesser extent) communicable disease transmission.

All the same I’d rather we put more effort into it the other way.  When we have sex I do all I can to make sure you come, using my hands and my mouth and my thigh if you’re going to grind one out.

The stupid porn trick of literally stepping back and jacking away while you sit or kneel or polish your nails because I’m not touching you at all nor are you touching me?

If that’s the way we were going to do it, angel, I’d still want to be lying side by side with you, leg over leg, shoulder to shoulder, and eye to eye while we did it together.

I mean old 20th-Century style “mutual masturbation” is actually a lovely way to feel good together!

But according to the Porn Gods and, I supposed, at least 3,000 years of gender assumptions, even though you could be enjoying yourself as much as I, you’re supposed to just sit there and be “gratified” with my little spatters.  

Ugh.

Yuck.

Fuck that shit.

I’ll get you off if you’ll get me, ok, sodapop?

I know that I’ve put this out here before but I’d love to see more responses. 

This qualifies as kink?

Okay, if you say so
.

Yes we have. It’s hot as fuck! Getting myself off watching my favorite IRL pornstar as He’s getting off on me? What’s not to love?

I’m in expert hands, giving Him a command performance, naked and exposed to Him as He strokes and moans and whispers filthy encouragements to me 
..

I get the visuals, His pleasure, submission service needs tended to, and a rocking orgasm on command all while He simultaneously strokes my fragile body image ego!

Ummmm

DUH !!!

*** watching a partner masturbate is one of the best ways to learn them btw

An excellent reminder that we’re still emerging not from vanilla culture (vanilla people can be pretty cool) but from what I like to call “missionary culture.”  Missionary culture – brought to us by the same twisted Victorians who popularized virtually all our tropes for BDSM as well – is a severe rule-based, orgasm-denial, impregnation kink where sex is strictly limited to infrequent, silent PIV intercourse, in the dark, only till the man ejaculates, and ideally only often as needed for pregnancy.

In missionary culture, which fancies itself to be “normal” and “mainstream,” anything else is a boundary issue.  

The difference between missionary kink and missionary culture is that in kink the rules apply only to you.  In missionary culture you want the rules to apply to everyone else!

Since at least the turn of the present century gay and straight vanilla partners have been having oral sex, sex in multiple positions, sex with the lights on, anal sex, light spanking, light bondage, roleplaying, mutual exhibitionism, and, of course, mutual masturbation.

But because we still live in missionary culture those utterly vanilla practices are often referred to as “kinks.”  But ahahaha, yeah, missionary propaganda notwithstanding, they’re not kinks.  They’re perfectly normal.  And therefore perfectly vanilla.

Vanilla’s hot.  Missionary’s… not.

I dunno.  Maybe I’m just old.  But outside of the production requirements of porn this seems like the only time “money shots” make for actual people.

“Mutual masturbation” has got to be the most prim, boring term in the world for something so objectively hot.

Anyone know if there’s a better term in other languages?  Because the Victorian “sexologists” really booted this one in English.

UPDATE: after all my grousing in my last post, someone who’s actually getting herself off while getting a facial! Which just makes SO much more sense to me.

Decision, decisions.  Hold onto the headboard or… watch the show?  You’d be delicious either way.  And if I don’t have your hips in my hands to hold you up or hold you still I’d probably be doing this either way.  So… which would you choose?

There’s so much room under my desk, puppy.  I wonder how long before I noticed you!

But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright
