    Ok first post so new to this...:)
    I do masturbate and think its perfectly naturaly. That said, if a friend asked me if i masturbated...i'd brush the question away. I'm a little coy like that.
    Do many women watch porn?

    Yes, lots of women do! Probably alot more than you think... And definately a good percentage of any girl that has good internet access!!

    There are at least a handful of top porn sites that are really good quality, easy to navigate and easy to find what you want (or quick to give you some good options if you're not sure what you want ;)).

    A few of these sites also have 'female friendly' or 'romantic sections' which i think is an awesome addition to the line-up :D

    Not really. I'm not really comfortable with it, i suppose it stems from not being happy in my own skin.... I'm relatively young though, 22, so i might get the hang of it yet :P

    Does anyone else have this problem? I dunno, maybe its weird, I would be all ready and the rest, and then its like my area, clitioris specifically, is too sensitive, and I just have to stop.

    Yes, this has happened before with real sex, but I find it strange that it is so sensitive, this area, demanding stimulation, and then its too much.

    Anybody find this similar?

    Frustrating!

    Can't say I've had this experience but it has happened me a good few times after sex or after orgasming, if i touch myself again too soon...

    Just a thought, maybe you could try playing with yourself (like a bit of rubbing/pressing etc) with your underwear still on first? so there is a buffer between you and the sensitivity! might ease you into it.

    No idea if it'll actually help but maybe worth a shot :) Its how i used masturbate for yrs when I was younger!

    Started doing it when I'd barely entered puberty - just discovered it randomly. True, it's not as good as the experience with a partner, but it can still be pretty great, and a fantastic way of getting in tune with yourself and what you enjoy.

    do it in front of him!!! that'll get his sex drive up :D:D

    I find that sometimes, either by myself or with my boyfriend. What I have to do is get really turned on, by playing in other ways first, bit of visual/verbal (depending whether I'm on my own or not) stimulation, then it's more enjoyable ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Well, these are all great ideas!And I think , things hopefully will improve!Any other ideas out there?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,981 ✭✭✭ElleEm


    Just referencing something you said about initiating sex with your boyf "once or twice and he refused", it may have been a bad time for him but I would encourage trying it on more often. Even have a whole sex session where you take control over him. It can be so liberating.
    I would recommend casually dropping it into conversation with your boyf that you do masturbate.
    Women don't speak about it enough so men are kept in the dark- I know my partner gets off on the idea of me playing with myself alone.
    Have you tried introducing toys into the bedroom? They definitly reduce the amount of time it takes me to climax during sex.

    Most of what I would say to you, OP, has already been covered by lots of other posters (tl;dr: masturbation rocks! :D), and as for getting off more while having sex with himself, I have discovered that whoever was talking about the benefits of good clit stimulation being achieved by the thrusting (as well as penetration), knew what they were talking about! ;)

    Position yourself so that the clit is being stimulated while having sex. I am not supposed to get too graphic about it on this forum, but a few completely run-of-the-mill positions come to mind...

    Enjoy! :)

    Ok just putting this out there...
    I joined boards last night so was feeling a little adventerous about exploring the online world a little more. Took a look at a few porn sites and there are some seriously disturbed sites out there. They could do with a few more female friendly categories in my opinion.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,512 ✭✭✭baby and crumble


    Thing is, what's disturbing to me might totally float your boat, and vice-versa. With the obvious excpetion of illegal stuff, you just need to get good at finding a few sites that DO cater to your likes, and steer clear of the ones that don't- like you've found out, there are a few VERY wrong tuns one can take- I would advise doing your wandering when not in the mood, per se, because what is seen cannot be unseen, and in the throes of it all you really don't need to click onto something involving a horse, a statue and a water balloon. (Trust me on this, I was scarred for LIFE :eek::eek::eek::eek:!!!)

    I'm genuinely curious to see what fetishes could be made out of a horse, water balloon and statue.


  • Registered Users Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    The only ones I would look at it or arouse me are romantic scenes nothing distusting like that!I do see titles of some of them and I just think who on earth would watch something so disgusting never mind be turned on by it!There are more female friendly sections to porn sites! My boyfriend is working nights now for the next few days DAMN IT!I'm all ready to try thses suggestions out!- a poster suggested different positions to stimulate bit I can never find that!!!

    Ok, fair enough on the one I mentioned (and pretty much everything in the world can be fetishised!!) but I don't think it's fair to say porn is disgusting... TBH I'm a woman, with no major crazy weird fetishes that I'd be afraid to talk about in conversation, but the so called 'female friendly' and romantic bits of porn i find tedious in the extreme! Different strokes, and all that! ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    I'm in a relationship so I don't bother atm. I don't have any difficulty cumming from penetration, but something else stops me masturbating, I don't find myself attractive. I hate the feel of vagina also. Eurgh!!!

    I must be very narcissistic as I only really get turned on by someone else getting turned on by me! I don't find myself at all attractive.....so if you don't find yourself attractive do you bother?

    I find myself a lot less attractive as I've gotten older and I have to say it wouldn't interest me to masturbate. I could physically cum, that's not the problem. The problem is fantasising, you can't fantasise without yourself being in the fantasy and that is an instant buzz killer for me.

    This is sad because I used to love a good roll in the hay with myself as a younger girl !!!

    But... You could just pretend that someone else is touching you? Then you don't have to picture yourself or whatever.

    It wouldn't work. I can't imagine anyone fanciable wanting to have sex with me! It's just not realistic!

    My own man is quite hot and always up for it though so it's not all bad! I just have no urge to masturbate!

    How does everyone else get around this problem?

    I feel the same way! Don't know how guys do it down there :pac: So I just use a vibrator, so I don't feel it with my own hands!

    Maybe get an erotic book for yourself? Could help get you in the mood maybe?

    Well, if you have no urge to masturbate, you just don't have to do it! It's not really a problem, imo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    I turn myself off, I have plenty of fantasies, and very few of them involve me at all... maybe I just have more voyeuristic tendencies. That said, a friend and I discussed fantasies a few years ago, and I realised that I never fantasise about people I'm really attracted to, rather I fantasise about attractive people, where there's no connection.

    I don't find myself attractive in the slightest, and I'm almost terminally single. If I didn't flick through my internal porn stash occasionally though I'd be intolerable. (Definitely no pun intended.)

    I also find masturbation a fantastic way to get to sleep if I'm very worked up about something and can't relax. Frankly I'd rather masturbation to going back on sleeping pills - it's natural, free, and infinitely more fun.

    I'm curious about toys, but a bit shy of the whole idea...

    Hell, if it makes you happy it can't be that bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,288 ✭✭✭pow wow


    I don't feel like it's 'wrong' though if I'm honest I don't give it too much conscious thought! When I was younger it felt a bit hollow as Faith was saying, but now I always think about a guy when I do it as opposed to 'hello, I'm touching my own vagina'. Different strokes eh? (pun intended!!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    I can't stand 'romantic' porn. I also hate porn where the couple keep telling each other how attractive they find each other, and some of the sound effects are so clearly fake it's offputting. I'm single, but would still masturbate when in a relationship and think nothing of it.

    I think about other people having sex sometimes, and other times my fantasies involve me. However, I sometimes find myself thinking about people I don't find at all attractive - not exactly unattractive, but definitely not my type.

    It's never been a discussion topic among my friends. I would answer if asked, though, but I have no strong urges to find out their habits.

    I completely agree! Though in saying that, there are many fetishes that I thought I'd have no interest in till they were tried out with me, fun fun times! :P Makes the whole experience that much more interesting :P

    I've never fantasised anything to do with myself during it...I either think of my boyfriend, a random selection of girls or I just watch porn :P All the works already done for me there! :P

    Well, alot of people are like myself, really glad to see that!I used to feel nothing at the start when I did it but with a bit of practice it became comfortable and really enjoyable! Anyone ever have a sneaky peak at lesbian porn??I'm 100% not gay, but there's something slightly exciting about something completely different!

    Anyone else?

    Your second line should be enough to rule out your first line. That means there is a guy that fancies you and obviously wants to have sex with you. So you could think about him. And if he fancies you, chances are lots of others will too.

    I think girls should treat this the same way guys do. It is a normal, healthy thing to do and is a great way to relieve stress or have fun. I would never in a million years have considered things like whether somebody fancies me or if I feel attractive. Mainly because if I did think about stuff like that I would never go near myself!

    Sometimes for straight women, the sight of female pleasure is a turn-on. Nothing wrong with that :)
