Mutual Self-pleasuring: Things to Consider Just about every adult male has had some highly personal experience with self-pleasuring. Although some men do claim never to have engaged in sensual self-fondling, they are definitely very much in the minority. Whether a man engages as part of his male organ care routine or whether he simply enjoys the sensations associated with the activity, self-pleasuring is a big part of most men’s lives. Depending on how one defines it, mutual selfpleasuring may not occupy such a large role in most men’s lives – and so there may be many who wish to consider it. What is it? What exactly is meant by mutual self-pleasuring? There is some debate on this topic. To some people, mutual self-pleasuring is defined as two or more people being in the same space, with each one self-stimulating him- or herself or self-stimulating each other. (In the internet age, many people would expand that definition to include people who are not in the same room but who are connected to each other via computer cameras and/or microphones.) In these scenarios, it doesn’t matter whether the individuals keep their touching to themselves or whether they reach out and stroke another individual. Other people would consider it mutual self-pleasuring only if they stroked each other at least sometimes. (In this case, refraining from touching one another would be simultaneous but not mutual self-pleasuring.) Still others would expand this definition so that it counted as mutual self-pleasuring only if the activity did not also include oral sensual activity or penetration. The thinking behind this last definition is that mutual self-pleasuring combined with oral and penetrative sensual activity falls under the larger umbrella term of “sensual activity” rather than specific mutual selfpleasuring. For the purposes of this piece, the term will mean two or more people who self-gratify together and for at least part of the time touch each other’s privates. There’s no other form of sensual activity involved in the activity, but instead two people are exploring each other’s bodies through selfwww.man1health.com
