You’re female, I take it? I envy you this luxury. For one, unless I’m really on the spot with the towel/t-shirt/whatever, there’s usually some amount of cleanup to be done, which precludes falling asleep immediately afterwards. Also, being a guy, coming more than once is out of the question unless I want to wait 45 minutes. 
Yes, I’m female. I do tend to leave a bit of a wet spot, though, but that’s not a big deal. I often lie on a towel and then slip it out from under me when I’m finished. I generally have a series of smaller orgasms and then the “big one,” which is when I consider myself finished.
And I don’t actually fall asleep immediately; I pull up my pajama bottoms first.
So, um…how you doin’? ;)
Pretty good, as you doubtless can tell…
Since cleanup is definitely more of a problem for guys, I’ve always wondered why guys are eager do it more often. The mess doesn’t seem fair, really. Especially if one of Cecil’s columns wasn’t a joke, and the average male orgasm only last something like 2-7 seconds (if 20-60 seconds is “nine times the pleasure”). he was kidding, right?
Oh heck, I can stretch it out for four hours or so! I’m usually downloading a large batch of porn off Usenet. When it’s all downloaded (I have a ridiculously fast connection, so I can download a couple gigabytes if fairly short order) I fire up my image cataloging software. Everything I’ve downloaded is sorted into various folders, so I load one folder of images at a time into the cataloging program. The software generates thumbnails for everything and allows me to view each set of photos as a slideshow.
It takes considerably longer to view everything than it took to download it. So if I’ve spent an hour downloading, I can spend the next three hours ogling a fapping. by varying my pace I can prolong the experience and not shoot off until I’ve viewed everything I downloaded. By that time, I’m really ready to blow, and the result is pretty spectacular
Way more than you wanted to know?
You can’t go wrong with this, though.
That wouldn’t work for me; uncontrollable giggling kills my wood every time. 
TIP: use your hand and then go straight to the wash-basin. Only works for those with big mits, mind.
I’ve been avoiding this thread for a few days, but what the hell. I don’t masturbate *nearly * as much as anyone here - maybe once or twice a month? More so if I’m sexually involved with someone, but it’s just not a big thing for me. I certainly enjoy it, and can make it last a while, but I cannot imagine doing it once a day or more!
By that, do you mean that you masturbate more when you’re involved with someone? If so, that’s interesting, and exactly the opposite of my tendency.
Oh what the hell, I’ve posted in all of the other sex threads lately… 
Female, 34, Single, Straight
Probably 2-4 times a week when I’m not dating anyone, but at least once a day when I am (except for the days I get to see him). The reason for the increased frequency while involved is that when I’m dating someone I have a lot more – and higher quality – fantasy material.
Totally depends on my mood and the situation: if I’m just trying to get to sleep or if I accidentally got horny the goal is getting off as quickly as I can, but if I’m settling down with some porn or something I try to make it last.
Heh. The idea of accidental horniness really amuses me, I don’t know why.
Yes, because it’s incorporated in our sexual activities. And being around a man I’m physical with keeps those feelings at the surface. I understand completely what **Misnomer ** is saying with, “if I accidently get horny” - sometimes I just get turned on, for no apparent reason.
Typically, 3-5 times a week, more if I have new porn.
If I’m in a relationship, none. Yep. I can hold out for a few days, no prob. If it gets to the point that I have to service myself, I need to reconsider her commitment to our collective happiness.
I realize that this might sound crass. However, I will gladly forgo sex if she wants that, and I’d rather wait for sex with her than just wank.
My first GF was driven to give me her first BJ, simply because I told her that she’d gotten me to the point that something needed to be done about my rigidity (either on her part or mine). Best BJ I’ve ever had.
We were talking about whackin’ right?
I used to take Ambien for sleep. It was like a race against medicine if you wanted to jerk it first. After it kicked in, no luck. Later, I took Sonata. I soon realized that “things were taking longer than usual”. I became worried that things might not “finish”.
I was wrong. There was a “toe clenching, eye spasming, jaw shaking” climax.
[Rick James] Sonata is a hell of a drug. A hell of a drug!" [/RJ]
Since we’re being all honest and stuff, “are fake vaginas any better than just regular wanking?”
Are they?
I remember an old “Playboy Advisor” column that said:
Words to live by, in my book. 
We are, indeed, talking about whackin’. If by “whackin’” you mean rubbin’ one out…
You’re going to need to be a lot more specific if you want a good answer to your second question. Define ‘regular wanking’ and ‘fake vaginas’ and you’re getting somewhere.
For example:
Its possible that there’s a “Jenna Jameson’s 3000SUX Ultra Vagina with Kung-Fu Grip” model out there that’s better than “regular wanking”. Its also possible that the aforementioned coconut oil is better than using a fresh baked apple pie (allowed to cool of course).
Speaking of apple pie, Happy Independence Day to all of my fellow Yanks! (no pun intended)
Fast approaching 30, straight, male, approach 3 years of marital bliss.
Couldn’t tell you. It varies anywhere between daily and twice a month.
In college I decided I was failing out because I spent too much time disciplining the 31337 wam-llama so I swore it off. About a month in I started having wet dreams again, for the first time since I was 10, so I went back to my routine.
A lot. I used to be at least 3 times per night every night, but it seems to be more varied lately. The longest I’ve gone without masturbating was a period of about 10 days. I only did that because, for a few days, I’d get migraines whenever I tried to masturbate, so I held off from masturbating as long as I could. Thankfully, I haven’t had that problem since. I get horny really easily, I can bring myself off quickly, and I can masturbate without touching myself so I can do it in public places without others knowing. I don’t always masturbate because I am horny. Sometimes I do it to relax and help myself fall asleep, and I like to do it while studying because it helps me concentrate (I have ADD).
Oh, I’m 24, female, and bisexual. I’ve not had sex with anyone else for some time now so I can’t remember how often I used to masturbate when I had that option.
