Almost every day (practically something like 5-6 times a week). It’s a rare night that I just don’t feel up to it. ---

I prefer for some things to remain a mystery. _wanders off to the other poll_ ---

I put the “almost never” option. I just never feel the urge to. Your guess is as good as mine. ---

I usually draw myself a nice hot bath once a week and, before I get in the tub, I rub one off waiting for it to fill. I’m all relaxed and ready to kick back then. ---

That’s interesting… I’d think that doing it _in_ the tub would be more desirable to doing it before getting in, but different strokes, and what not. ---

I voted 2-3 times a week, but that changes depending on how often I have company. Sometimes it’s every day, fer sher. ---

Uh, what’s the difference in a public and private poll? What I mean is - I can’t tell how you guys voted unless you say so, so why is this public? ---

The use of the word “females” to mean “women” in this thread is really weird. Why are people doing that? ---

It averages out at 2/3 times a week but I go through phases of not wanting too and…well…the opposite. ---

> [@corkboard](#): > > That’s interesting… I’d think that doing it _in_ the tub would be more desirable to doing it before getting in, but different strokes, and what not. Well, it might depend on how - vigorous - one is. In my case, things might get a bit …splashy. ---

It depends. Sometimes it’s three times in four days, sometimes it’s no more than once every other month. Depends how I’m feeling physically and emotionally. Some months I’m more… restless and silly than other months. ---

Sometimes a couple of times a week, other times maybe once every other week, etc. I really don’t have any set schedule or pattern. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/females-how-often-do-you-masturbate/519392.md?page=1)
