Nine out of 10 people believe that this habit has a positive effect on their lives
Stimulating the genitals or erogenous zones by hand Or by other means to achieve sexual pleasure is a practice that has been done, at least, since the first and second centuries AD. We assume that before. Only on February 20, researchers from the University of Cambridge revealed that they had identified a wooden rod carving. Because of its delicate shape, they say, it could have been used as a “sex toy”. They actually rated the contraption an A “romanian dildo”.
Although she qualified for it at the time Rods have also been used as symbols of strengthOf prestige, the news may indicate that Roman women did indeed masturbate using sex toys and certainly did not hide them. Twenty centuries later, this meaning has changed, but the practice remains.
According to a study by Diversual, with a sample of 5,124 people, Geographically segmented, people with a penis masturbate on average 3.73 times a week, Being the most intense period between 18 and 24 years old. An average of 4.76 hits was reached. For their part, people with vulvas masturbate 2.89 timeswhich is also the most intense period from 18 to 24 years old, with an average of 2.92 times.
More than 6% of men use resources from their ex-partners
There are some differences between people who have a penis or a vulva. In the first group, the average age to start masturbation is 16 years in 90% of cases, while only 57.4% of the second group actually do it at that age. Also, to get into the subject, they tend to use their imagination (82.9%) illusion of pornography (81%).
“Similarly, 50.8% of people with vulvas turn to pornography, so the myth that the majority don’t consume this type of content has been flipped,” they noted in the Diversual article, which doesn’t say what kind of porn they watch. It is worth noting that More than 6% of people with penises take photos or videos of their ex To do that.
Asturians are the ones who touch each other the most
Another fact this survey leaves out is that not all countries are touched upon with the same frequency. “With such a large sample of people participating in the study, we were able to identify this in most counties 3 times masturbating per inhabitant on a weekly average. What are the provinces that practice masturbation the most and the least? Guadalajara in the lead with an average of 3.96 hits per week, followed by Asturias and Huelva, while Syria It is the county with the lowest number of masturbations, at 2.75 times.”
Of the independent societies, the Asturians are the most practiced: they even do 3.88 times a week, It is followed by Extremadura, Castilla and Leon. On the other hand, the community that masturbates the least Basque Country with an average of 2.86 times, It is followed by Cantabria (2.98).
Why do they do that?
It is not surprising that among the main reasons for masturbation was the desire to have fun (91.6%), followed by the need to relax (58.5%) and satisfy needs (51.1%), boredom (16.6%) and lack of pleasure. The partner (5.2%) is the least frequent cause.
The benefits, in general, are “many”. Sexologist Rosa Sanz confirms this, which goes beyond the answers given by those surveyed. “It allows us to get to know each other better, and when that happens, We can pass it on to our sexual partnersIn fact, more than 80% of the population believes that self-touching results in an improvement in their sexual self-awareness.
It also improves self-esteem and security; strengthens the pelvic floor, which favors orgasms and prevents sexual dysfunctions such as lack of orgasm and erectile dysfunction; It releases oxytocin, the attachment hormone, so we feel closer to our partner – if we have one -; And melatonin is released To go to sleep it’s perfect. And be careful, because it also strengthens the immune system.
They do the same
Rosa Sanz also points out that, each time, the rate of masturbation between men and women is more similar overall. Among people with a penis, the minutes devoted to this practice are on average 4’54 minutes, While people with vulvas spend a little more time, some 5-38 minutes on average, So there are differences in the time allotted for masturbation. Say goodbye to the myth that “we are slower”.
“Fortunately, things are changing,” acknowledges the sexologist, who also believes that, given that the age sample in this survey oscillates between the ages of 18 and over 60, Data can be obtained from the number of young people who responded. For many people of a certain age, masturbation has been frowned upon for decades.
In recent years there has been penetration into female pleasure, Thanks, among other things, for booming at Patients, to the conversation in social networks, etc. She noted that more and more women feel comfortable talking about their sexuality, without harassment or taboos, including masturbation. Christopher Icaza, CEO of Amantis Corporation. For this expert, “It’s not that women masturbate more than before, but that it’s now more visible, and they feel more free to talk about it, just as men have done for many years.”
What role do sex toys play?

The sex toys in this survey played a major role in their vulvas and much more stories of their penises, especially because they help them reach orgasm more easily. “They have always been in use, as evidenced by the recent discovery of a Roman phallus carved in wood some 2,000 years ago. For many centuries women’s pleasure has been silenced, both in relation to their relationships as a couple and in terms of self-stimulation and the use of games to enjoy their own pleasure. Fortunately, the topic is being talked about more and more, and in this case, erotic games are also used. Partly because there are more and more options, designs, etc. and partly because of breaking taboos or the “shame” of entering a sex shop. In recent years we have seen a Big increase in salesespecially clitoral suckers,” says Amantis CEO.
In this sense, remember that as in the case of masturbation in general, lErotic toys are used for masturbation and pleasure, but also to experience one’s own sexuality. “It can be a way to learn how to know our bodies and help us better know what sensations we like, how we like to be touched and where,” he says.
