We already understood that
queer women masturbate more frequently than direct ladies
and, for the reason that blog post I just connected, there is some theories regarding precisely why this is certainly. The outcomes of the most present
Lesbian Stereotypes Study
suggest that not only do we masturbate more often than right females, we also began masturbating earlier than directly women. This can be a very general “we,” by the way, I personally was actually a very belated bloomer w/r/t genital stimulation, which without doubt We have mentioned before on this subject web site in which we shop just about all my tips. Anyhow, here is the way you all turned around:

According to research by the University of Michigan
, around 25percent of ladies and 100per cent of young men have actually masturbated to orgasm by the ages of 15.
Other research shows 95% of men doing it by age 20, versus 60per cent of females
. We failed to find out about orgasm but I think the aforementioned information strongly implies we had been acquiring right down to it prior to when the masses.

Anyway, there was clearly a “comments” part under this multiple choice concern, and son do you ever review! For instance, I got most commentary about Catholic guilt. Let’s enter into your own stories of the very first self pleasure encounters, torn mercilessly out-of framework and introduced here for instructional and activity purposes.
