Female masturbation techniques (explained)

There are different ways to stimulate both the clitoris and other erogenous zones that will make you feel great pleasure. However, for many years female sexuality has been socially repressed and punished , so it is not unusual for there to be a lot of ignorance about this topic at a popular level.

The idea that sexuality has a facet in which women feel pleasure has been knowingly overlooked, given that in sex, as in practically all areas of life, until relatively recently, exclusively the interests of men took precedence. . And if female pleasure was taboo, let alone female masturbation, in which it is not necessary for another person to participate. On this topic, historically, the lack of interest has been total.

Therefore, knowing female masturbation techniques and talking about them is something that can contribute to this information gap being filled soon and that the woman’s well-being is valued in itself, and not as a consequence of the man’s satisfaction. in bed.

So let’s start with some simpler ones and move on to more complex ones .

1. From top to bottom

The first masturbation technique is very simple. You should focus on the clitoris and touch it with your finger , then start rubbing up and down. First you can do it on one side, and when you are ready, you can stimulate directly on the clitoris once the appropriate time has passed so that it is not abrupt.

2. The long and slow caress

Using one or more fingers, slide lightly and gently through the center of your vagina and clitoris, from bottom to top in a long stroke. Listen to your body to feel which areas provide the most pleasure and while you touch them, experiment with quick movements, slower movements, as well as more or less pressure.

3. Side to side

You can also try changing the direction of your movements, starting with your clitoris and rubbing back and forth. Some women prefer not to have direct contact on the clitoris while others want a more intense touch. You can gradually increase the intensity.

4. Circular movement with all fingers

Another type of movement you can do is in the shape of a circle. In fact , this masturbation technique is one of the most used and effective since to perform it it is necessary to use all four fingers rubbing the entire area, not just the clitoris.

5. The U point

Many women do not seem to know the U point. However, this area can be really pleasurable and its stimulation can cause very intense orgasms. As you can see in the video below, it is the area of ​​skin just above the urethra.

6. Shower jet

If you haven’t used the shower jet or the tap yet, you don’t know what you’re missing . It is true that it is a fingerless masturbation technique, but it causes an incredible sensation. The only thing you need is a tap to direct the jet towards the vagina. You can experiment with what gives you the greatest pleasure and accompany it with fingering or penetration.

7. In the bathtub

If you don’t like to shower and prefer a relaxing bath, you can also take your toys into the bathtub or touch yourself in different ways . It is a very relaxing situation that you can take advantage of to enjoy your body.

8. On the pillow

Another way to masturbate that will give you a lot of pleasure is to simulate having intimate relations with the pillow . It may seem like a slightly strange situation, but it causes really pleasant sensations.

9. Rolled towel

Another variation of the previous technique is to take a towel and roll it up and then place it on a chair . Once placed, you can sit on it and rub and scrub to feel great pleasure. You can also use other surfaces placed on objects similar to a chair.

10. The squeeze

The squeeze consists of pressing the clitoris with the index finger and thumb . Then you can make repetitive movements around it, for example, while one finger goes one way the other goes the other.

11. As if it were a penis

A variation of the previous point is the following: once the clitoris has been pressed and played with movements, you can treat this area as if it were a small penis and perform the movement of male masturbation . Of course, this masturbation technique is somewhat more complex than the rest, so distractions appear easily; That is why you can combine it with others.

12. The sandwich

Instead of using the index finger and thumb, the middle finger and index finger are used . The situation remains as if your fingers were slices of bread and you press harder and harder. While doing this, you can give your clitoris small strokes with your hand while varying the pressure and speed.

• From top to bottom with one or more fingers.
• Press and squeeze fingers together
• With lubricant for a better touch.
• With different toys or erotic objects.

14. Orgasmic meditation

Orgasmic meditation is a form of masturbation that requires another person to massage the clitoris . Unlike other types of meditation, the person does not focus on breathing, but on the sensations of the clitoris in the present moment.

To carry out. The person receiving the stimulation must be relaxed while the other massages the clitoral area for 15 minutes. The goal is not to reach orgasm but to feel the sensations that occur.

15. The pearl necklace

To carry out this masturbation it is necessary to have a pearl necklace. You can sit on your knees or stand up. You just have to place the collar between your legs and move it back and forth .

16. Penetration

Lying on the bed, raise your knees and open your legs. In this position, you can penetrate your vagina with your middle and index fingers to simulate penis penetration . Once inside, you can stimulate the G-spot, which is located at the top of the vagina, about 5 centimeters from the entrance.

17. With vibrator

The options until now were with the finger or fingers. However, you can also follow the advice above and do the masturbations I talked about with a vibrator . You can stimulate the clitoris with a device intended exclusively for this use or insert a dildo as if it were penetration.

18. Legs crossed

You can lie down and relax your legs. Then, squeeze your thighs and point your toes, crossed… Use your knees to go up and down . Keep your vagina tight while you feel the stimulation.

Do you like sado? You can let your imagination run wild by putting nipple clamps on your breasts while you masturbate. This way you can pretend that you are carrying out an extreme sexual practice.

22. Look in the mirror

There are many people who feel excited when they see themselves masturbating in front of the mirror . The fact of visualizing the act at the same time that it is performed makes the pleasurable stimuli arrive through more channels.

You can sit in a chair or masturbate from bed in a room where you have a good view from the mirror. Enjoy it.

23. Imitate an adult movie

A situation that can be very entertaining and exciting is choosing a porn movie from the wide range that you can find on the internet. You just have to imitate the role of the woman who is the protagonist. Your imagination can make you feel part of what is seen in the sequence.

24. Face down masturbation

You should lie face down on the bed, put your arms at your sides and your head turned to one side . Your knees should be bent so that you can have contact with your clitoris on the bed. You can roll the sheet or place the pillow in that erogenous zone. You just have to vary the movements to your liking as long as the friction allows you to get very hot.

25. Washing Machine

The washing machine technique will allow you to choose between various positions to vary the sensations.

Switch on the “intense spin” mode and put yourself in the position of your choice, you can, for example, use the same technique as the corner of the table, you can also make love on the machine, in fact the vibrations and shaking it will increase the sensation during your lovemaking.
However, you will be asked to think of your neighbors and not run machines all night even if it is off-peak hours.

26. About the clitoral hood

For some people it may be too stimulating to touch the clitoris. Alternatively, it is possible to do it on the cap, the external part that covers it . It is ideal for the initial moments of masturbation.

27. Remove the cap

It may happen that the opposite happens to a person as in the previous case, that they need more stimulation of the clitoris. In that case, it is possible to stimulate it directly by exposing it more . To do this, simply place your fingers on the hood of your clitoris and then slowly pull the skin back.

28. With two vibrators

If you feel like trying something more extreme than just one vibrator, you can masturbate with two at the same time . One can go directly for the clitoris and the other can be used for penetration. Coordination is important here.
