Masturbation has many pseudonyms from self-pleasure, self-love and jacking off. It can get a lot more surreal than that and some of the names can become outright funny. The list for men in particular is quite long and I would have to say inventive. Here are some examples I picked up in my search:-
Dishonourable discharge
Fire the flesh musket
Hold the sausage hostage
Jerkin' the gherkin
Making your creator foam
Romancing the bone
Slapping the pappy
Tickle your pickle
The art of unisex
Well the idea is there and it is funny how the whole idea that men have more names for masturbation than women is thought provoking. It is down to how men have to trivialise anything that is a serious subject. It has to be said that nearly everyone does masturbate.
Alfred Kinsey did a study back in the late 1940's early 1950's that showed 60% of women and 95% of men had admitted to self-pleasuring. Later studies by The National Health and Social Life Survey and other research conducted found that between 48-95% of people masturbate. It is a natural behaviour and one that is taboo when it should not be.
Self-pleasure has been seen to have many benefits from relieving stress to a survey in Australia that men who had masturbated in their 20's and 30's actually reduce their chances of developing prostate cancer in later life. There are other benefits that are not purely physical.
Through the use of self-pleasure it can lead to both men and women discovering more about their own bodies. This is very true for women in particular. Through self discovery by self love women can find how best through manual stimulation they can get excited and reach orgasm. It maybe through clitoral stimulation, penetration or finding the G-spot once though a women has reached a better level of understanding she can translate that to her partner and love-making becomes much better of it.
Self-pleasure maybe a subject that people joke about but it something we all do and a behaviour that is not at all perverted and can actually many great benefits.
