Remember how he instructed us to, “Go, Shorty!” because it was our birthday and to, “Party like it’s our birthday,” and perhaps, if we were of legal age and felt it tickled our fancy, we should, “Sip Bacardi,” because it was, in fact, our birthdays? I remember vividly. In his later years, Sir 50 Cent pondered the merits of whether he should, “Get rich” or “Die trying.” A difficult ultimatum for anyone, I’d imagine. Today 50 Cent has moved onto, a less grand but equally as important dilemma, masturbation. 50 has declared clicking the mouse is a sin. *Clutches pearls*

Don’t worry, guys! In case you were wondering how to shake this habit, he has provided 4 simple steps on how to quit touching yourself.

He is watching me masturbate? I didn’t know He felt that way about me, I’m totally blushing!

I didn’t really agree to stop, but if you insist . . .

I’m already failing miserably.

How else am I going to look at their butts? Some people have such good butts!

What if you work at a strip club?

What if your turn ons include sandwiches? Should I stop reading Bon Appetite?

Masturbation is normal and healthy. (No matter what any rapper tries to tell you!) If you have religious inclinations it’s actually a great alternative to sex when you want to save yourself. It releases endorphins that make you feel good. There are just no cons to masturbation. It’s the safest way to explore one’s sexuality and people of any age can practice it without consequence.

Masturbation is something people do at any and every point in their lives — whether they’re single or in a relationship, old or young, male or female.

This guide was written by Ellen Friedrichs, a sex education teacher, to help clear up some confusion surrounding masturbation, answer the most common questions people have and offer tips and advice on a subject that can be tough to talk about. Read on to learn more about masturbation, and hopefully, get some of your questions answered.

Wet dreams are generally defined as erotic dreams that culminate with an orgasm. They are very commonly associated with nocturnal emissions–an involuntary ejaculation that occurs while one is asleep (hence the “wet” in the phrase “wet dreams”).

Who experiences them? Wet dreams typically occur in males during their prepubescent and teenage years. Though they usually taper off as guys mature, some men may experience wet dreams well into adulthood. Girls experience wet dreams also; however they aren’t as common (or aren’t as easily recognized by women, as by men).When a female experiences a wet dream, the vagina becomes lubricated as she becomes sexually aroused in her dream. However, less liquid is produced by females, leaving little evidence of a wet dream when she wakes up.

Dear Heather,

Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m wondering though, how can you masturbate on your period?

Happy Valentine’s Day to you, too! What an excellent question on a day that can bring lots of lonely girls, especially those who are exacerbatedly hormonal from a period, a whole bunch of pleasure. It might be a bummer to be on your period for a lot of reasons, not getting to masturbate isn’t one of them. There are so many ways to pleasure yourself, on your period or not, that don’t involve actually touching yourself when your flow is. Fingering yourself isn’t the only way to have an orgasm!

|Touching yourself there not only feels good, but also releases sexual tension and helps you learn a lot about your sexual preferences. So go ahead gURLs, bravely (and anonymously) help us break down the masturbation taboo and share your stories with this fun survey!|

In fact, many gURLs can’t come from any penetration, but instead, rub the outside, over, on, near and around the clitoris, vulva and labia. Pinching, pressing, stroking, tickling, kneading and rubbing that sensitive area in a sensual rhythm should lead to orgasm. It’s important to make sure you have privacy (unless you’re this gURL) and to not worry about how long it might take. Just enjoy the feeling. Touching your nipples and around the anus can also turn a gURL on!

Explore all the parts of your body! Touching yourself on your sides, hips, across your neck and chest, behind your ears — these are all sensitive areas that, especially with the power of fantasy and imagination, can get you off. If you have to be naked when you masturbate, just put a towel down so you don’t stain anything that might be hard to clean.

Do any gURLs out there have masturbation tips of their own? I’d love to hear what you think.

take care,
heather

I have known my close friend since I was a little kid. I recently walked into his room and he was masturbating to porn. Now it’s really awkward to be around him. What should I do?

I can see how that could really make things awkward. The good news is that this awkwardness is likely to fade over time.If you haven’t talked with him about this, you might try that. Addressing what happened, instead of avoiding the subject, may actually make the awkwardness go away more quickly. No need to linger on what he was doing, just apologize and tell him you’ll be more careful next time–that you’ll knock first.

Since you two have been hanging out since you were kids, walking into your friend’s room without announcing yourself or asking permission may have, in the past, felt like a perfectly natural thing to do. However, you’re both getting older and you’re bound to need more privacy.

In order to avoid this kind of awkwardness, it might help for both of you to acknowledge that you will have to be more careful in the future.

take care,
heather
