Masturbation in May: The Origins Story

May Masturbation Month? You’ve never heard of it, you say. But while it may not be the most famous event on the calendar, May has enjoyed this special status since 1995, when San Francisco sex shop Good Vibrations declared May 7, 1995, the first-ever Masturbation Day in protest. the dismissal of surgeon general Joycelyn Elderswas fired by President Clinton the previous year, simply for suggesting that masturbation be included in the school sex education curriculum.

But Good Vibrations’ community service didn’t stop there: from 1998 to 2003, they hosted a Annual Masturbate-A-Thon an event in which participants masturbated in front of each other to raise money for charity, raise awareness, and dispel taboos about self-pleasure. This highly regulated event was eventually shut down due to a series of problems persistent challenges (i.e. unwanted voyeurism), but its spirit lives on!

Because you can never have too many masturbatory epiphanies (literally, anyway), Masturbation Day has since been extended to the entire month of May, you know.

Masturbation Month, also known as International Masturbation Month, is the inevitable modern manifestation of all the previous efforts to empower aspiring masturbators while destigmatizing closet masturbators. And while undeniable progress has been made, the work is not done. Women, for example, are still less comfortable with masturbation than men – an unpleasant phenomenon known as the masturbation gap. As if the orgasm gap That wasn’t enough, was it?

So, in the spirit of claiming and fully inhabiting your pleasure, I hereby offer you 6 ways to celebrate the month of May of masturbation in 2024.

1. Make a schedule

Why not use May Masturbation Month as an excuse to celebrate daily? At least for a month, anyway. If you’re overwhelmed with ideas on how to best celebrate the month, this one is definitely for you. Courtesy of LA WeeklyYou could break down your week like this:

2. Masturbate… organically

While non-toxic and body safe sex toys should be on everyone’s agenda, you might consider upping the ante by adding respectful of nature to your list of criteria. Besides, why not nodding your head in thanks and appreciation to Mother Earth before you let loose? I’m willing to bet it will only intensify your orgasm. This could mean choosing toys made with sustainable materials like biolene, glass, or stainless steel; opting for paraben-free, vegan latex condoms; or choosing to watch ethically made porn.

3. Experiment safely with household items

“Safe” is the operative word here, my friends. Resist the urge to randomly stick a cucumber in there unless it’s well-cleaned, organic, and you’ve put a condom on it first. And definitely resist the urge to make your own sex toys at home to avoid unintentionally exposing yourself to unwanted bacteria or chemicals. Instead, safely experience new sensations playing naughtily with your shower head, or rubbing yourself against a pile of pillows to stimulate your clitoris (a great way to transition from the common missionary masturbation position).

4. Practice tantric masturbation

Chances are you’ve heard of Tantric sexWhether you have one or not, there are many good reasons to try itand many of these same reasons apply to tantric masturbation. In short, Tantra is a set of ancient spiritual practices rooted in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jain traditions dating back thousands of years. In the Western world, the term is most often used to describe a sacred, mindful approach to sex and pleasure. Think of tantric masturbation as a form of meditative self-love. Orgasm is not the goal, because exploration is the ultimate goal. Ultimately, the more you can explore without reaching orgasm, the more energy you accumulate.

5. Let your fantasies run wild

Role-play with yourself. You don’t need a partner to play games or indulge in fantasies. Only you, deep in your heart, know what really drives you crazy. Maybe you need to close your eyes and imagine that you’re being watched. Or that you’re being served by multiple partners. Or maybe you need to imagine that the fate of the planet rests on your ability to reach orgasm—or to continue masturbating. without orgasm. Our minds are complex beasts. Sometimes we just need to let them take us where we want to go. Take it to the next level by wearing the sexiest outfit you own, just for you and only you.
