All of us masturbate, but I believe we think varied things while doing so. I’ve often spoken to my lovers about what we choose to think about while flying solo, and I’ve been surprised by the variety of inspirational and exciting thoughts. Me, for example, I usually think about women I’ve met IRL but haven’t yet enjoyed the pleasure of boinking yet but I’ve found that my lovers think of past sexual encounters, or encounters with past lovers that went much better than they did IRL, and of celebrity hotties whom they’ll almost certainly never get to meet IRL, while others think about themselves inserted into fictional scenarios (from movies, novels, etc.). My current GF tells me that she thinks about me when she masturbates, but I think she’s lying—too shy to reveal what she really thinks about, or just trying to flatter me. I imagine that some people think about situations too edgy for them IRL (S&M, B&D, R&D, etc.), while others imagine 3somes, same sex arrangements, and all sorts of things but would like to know and not merely speculate. Hence this poll.
Do your masturbation fantasies feature
You and current SO
You, recreating past encounters IRL
You, and someone you’ve met but never known Biblically
You, and someone you’ve never met (a celebrity, for example)
you, and someone who exists only in fantasy (a movie, book, etc.)
you and some porn star whom you’re watching as you do the deed
simply watching (or reading, etc.) porn with no consciousness of yourself inserted into the scene
you and someone you’ve had sex with but in some new way (this is like choice #1, but with the new way added)
other (please specify, if you choose this one)
CREATING A POLL
To create a poll, just do your usual “Post New Thread” process. The OP you type will appear below the poll, as this one does. After you’ve entered the title and typed the OP, scroll down to the “additional options” box and look for “post a poll.”
Check the box “Yes, post a poll with this thread,” and fill in the number of options you’ll have available.
Click “Submit New Thread” and you’ll be taken to a new screen, where you can create the poll itself.
Under “Poll question,” fill in the text you want people to see above the poll (remember, your OP will show up below it).
Under “Poll options,” fill in one answer per box. If you goofed on the number of answers, go to the “number of poll options” box, change the number, and click “Update Options.”
The “Poll timeout” allows you to create polls that only stay open for a specified number of days. Leave it blank to leave the poll open indefinitely.
There are two new options under “Miscellaneous options”:
-
“Allow multiple choice” presents viewers with checkboxes instead of radio buttons, so they can choose more than one option. This is for the “check all that apply” polls, as opposed to the “pick the one best answer” polls.
-
“Make votes public” means that everybody will be able to see how everybody else voted. This is handy when you want to make a poll like “Who wants me to send them $100”? You don’t just find out how many people said “yes,” you get to see their names so you can send them the $100 (just assume I voted yes on that poll, okay?).
