Benefits of Self Pleasure

Love Yourself!

Masturbation, also known as self pleasure, solo sex, and autoeroticism, has long been a taboo subject and an act that most people deny doing. With the help of the medical profession, television, and the internet, it is now common knowledge that most people masturbate, some as often as every day, even if they don’t talk about it.

Historically, masturbation has had a cloud of guilt, shame, and misconception surrounding it, but we are here to tell you that it is normal, not harmful, and good for your health and spirit. It will not cause fur to grow on your palms or cause you to go blind, you will not lose your desire for sex, and it doesn’t mean your partner doesn’t satisfy you. Through self pleasure we are able to learn a lot about our bodies, including what feels good and equally important, what does not. Often the most intense orgasms are experienced during masturbation because you are able to focus just on what pleases you. You can then use this knowledge to improve your sex life with your partner. Most partners want to please each other and appreciate the knowledge gained by their partner telling or showing them what pleases them.

Safe Sex for Seniors

Safe sex for whom? Yes, you did read it correctly…senior citizens! Why is “safe sex” an issue for this group of active adults? Many seniors are entering the dating scene for the first time in many years. Topics such as birth control and protection from Sexually Transmitted Diseases haven’t been an issue for years until now. There is a documented rise in the transmission of STD’s among the senior set—not to mention a rise (so to speak) in the black market sales of Erectile Dysfunction “solutions”.

So how can seniors protect themselves so they can have a pleasurable, yet safe, sexual lifestyle? One word: Condoms!

Many post menopausal women think that since pregnancy is no longer a worry, that there is no need for protected sex. The rise in STD’s among seniors shows that this is not the case. The first step in protecting yourself is by using a condom. Latex condoms when used correctly are effective in reducing the transmission of Sexually Transmitted Diseases. Ladies, times have changed…don’t be embarrassed to take charge and make sure your partner wears a condom.

To those that may have reservations about using a condom… Condoms are better than they used to be! There have been many advances in the world of condoms: better heat transfer, sensation, lubrication…different sizes, textures, and even ones for better erection control.
