It had been nice and oh-so-taboo. Of course, I tried to restrain myself and found it really hard to keep it a secret – but I’m glad I did. I still feel the same kind of pleasure today, connected to the knowledge that my decisions weren’t rash. I owe it to myself to explore and discover what feels good, without feeling guilty about it. I don’t mean to get preachy, but if something as simple as self-exploration can be such a great and thoughtful pleasure, then it’s ok to keep exploring.
After all, it’s only human to want to know more about ourselves. We should be open about it and talk to our friends so we can get to know each other better and share a different kind of intimacy. Masturbation isn’t something to be ashamed of, it’s just another way of understanding our bodies.
With that in mind, it’s important to remember that there’s no one-size-fits-all way of enjoying ourselves. Some prefer solitude, others need background noise; some people use their hands and others use toys or vibrators -whatever feels good is worth doing. In the end, it’s all about creating gorgeous experiences.
The same goes for change. Society is dynamic and it continuously calls for new approaches to sex dolls and relationships. It’s ok to take a break from routine and add a surprise here and there. Taking the time to explore new positions, Rochester fantasies, sexual accessories or trying different types of lube, can be an awesome experience and a true journey to self-eroticism.
And while we’re open to experimentation, it’s essential to be aware of our bodies and the signals it’s giving us. Sometimes we’re open to try more than what our bodies are asking for. We can go too far, which could lead to injury or even become dangerous. So, let’s be mindful and remember to take time to rest and breathe.
It’s also important to make sure that masturbation is a natural, healthy and liberating activity. Like choosing to treat our bodies with respect and understanding. Free of judgement, shame and guilt. That’s why it’s essential to get proper information on the topic and be able to talk about it freely. We are grown-ups, after all.
Just because our culture has hardwired us to associate pleasure with guilt doesn’t mean it’s the norm. It’s ok to allow ourselves to feel pleasure and even to enjoy it more than once. We must realize this muscularly practice can bring much pleasure and satisfaction – it’s ok to take care of ourselves and find new ways of exploring our body. It’s part of being an adult and recognizing the importance of finding self-love.
Ultimately, it’s up to us to make our own decisions and decide how far we want to go with our bodies. Everyone deserves pleasure and it’s ok to take a moment for ourselves – enjoy it, explore it, discover it. As long as it brings us peace, it’s worth it and never wrong. We all have different thresholds for pleasure and they should definitely be explored!
