We play this game all the time, and no girl ever admits to it- EVER. And we're all 18. Everyone just say's 'Oh I think its strange, why would I need to do that?'. It's kinda taboo. I would never admit to it in real life.
Your normal, and girls just lie about that :)

hee i play this game with my friends all the time! and when that question was asked the same thing happened, everyone just laughed and i kept my mouth shut.but its completely normal :) its all about experimenting sexually and growing up etc. im willing to bet most of your friends have probably done it too and are just thinking the same as you! i do it and i havent told any my friends, only my boyfriend, there just seems to be some kind of taboo about girls masturbating but see if youre enjoying it and youre comfortable doing it? there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. dont get down :)

Yes this is a very normal thing to do. However even though today people are more open about sex and sexual orientation, their is still an under current of the repressed age of sexuality. So even though it is normal people,young adults, even adults are still anxious about openly admitting or making confirmation that they do it. Fear of its morally wrong or that your so desperate that you have to pleasure yourself; or you can't find anyone to take care of your needs. Which is probably more the case today.

Perfectly Normal but I have found that girls tend not to talk about it like boys do...

They probably didn't want to look weird either, even you kept it to yourself. It's normal to masturbate, and it's normal to be embarrassed by it.

It's normal, they all do it and were thinking the exact same thing you were thinking. Trust me.
Having sex at 15? Not so much. Hopefully those girls haven't really had sex and are just saying so, because sex that early can really mess you up. ESPECIALLY if you're a girl. Be careful. I had sex the first time at 16, and I have never stopped regretting it. I can't imagine what a mess I'd be if I had lost it to any of the guys I thought I loved at 15.

It's very normal, but most 15 year olds, especially 15 year old girls don't know that. It's embarrassing to admit I think. I bet quite a few of them do.

well, after doing some quick math, I'll say 15 was the age I started. I'm sure, given the uncomfortable giggles received, that at least someone in the group was just like you. It took me a while to get to that point because I felt like my hand was too germy to use, I didn't want ANYTHING there that wasn't "meant" to be there (tampons either). Once I figured out it's just like any other part of my body, just avoided out of ignorance or fear, I didn't really have qualms about it after that.

I'm not sure why, but at your age, many girls won't admit if they masturbate. Some girls honestly don't masturbate which isn't a problem either. I never got an honest admission from another girl until I was 18. It was such a relief. I'de been masturbating for 5 years at that point, but it was so relieving just to hear that other girls did it.
Look at it this way; you most likely won't be a woman who "can't" have an orgasm. Unfortunately, there are quite a lot of adult woman who have that problem. To me that seems insane that you don't know how to enjoy your sexuality by yourself....but that most likely be you.
Enjoy.

It's totally normal.
I'm sure that within a bunch of 15 year olds, nobody wants to be the first one to put their finger down, and they're all kinda embarrassed - just like you didn't want to look weird. Everyone was probably just waiting for someone else to do something... but no one did and nobody wanted to be the odd one out!
It is totally and completely normal to masturbate at 15. It's just a little taboo (or at least awkward) to talk about, I guess. No worries, sweet!!
