Is society right in thinking masturbation in mainly a male activity?

Heyy everyone, this is just a general wondering, mainly to our female readers... How often do you masturbate in a week?

I was talking to my boyfriend the other night, and I said on top of the sex we have, I probably masturbate about 5 times a week... (Now he doesn't mind that I do this, he obviously does it too, and I think it's healthy to keep exploring your own body, so that is no issue here) he said he thinks I do it more than average, I said probably not, but because women don't talk about it as much as men do, it seems that way.

I've discussed this with my female friends, but I don't think this represents a very fair cross-section of females :p

So I guess I'm wondering, do women actually get themselves off more than everyone thinks, or is society right in thinking it's mainly a frequent male activity?

I used to think that only men masturbate. Even now I dont think most girls i know do it but i know that most guys do.

I do it 5 times a week too but I don't have sex on top of that! So maybe he thought it was over average because you already have sex.

I do think men masturbate more though because most guys i talk to say they do it numerous times a day while girls might do it once or twice a day. That's just my opinion!

pandabird agony auntHa this is quite interesting! I thought I was right in my assumptions... Thanks everyone for putting in your thoughts.

Yeah, I did it a lot more when I was younger, which I am very glad for now! When I was about 15, I thought I was quite strange for doing it so much, but it's definitely benefited me.

veronika agony auntI have quite a high sex drive, and the amount I do it every day varies. The other day I did it about 4 times. However, the average for me would be about once or twice a day.

I think women do it more, generally, then a lot of men realise.

4-7 times a week. Depending on how much time I have, strangely the more sex I have the more I masturbate...

Sex probably 1-5 times a week.

He's wrong... women are as sexually active as men, they just repress talking about it, or when they do some will under report reality. Some guys (not many) seldom if ever do it, same for some women.... and there is no "average". He should be happy that you know how to pleasure yourself and in turn can teach him about how to get a woman off.

Girls just don't feel as comfortable talking about it. Guys tease each other about it and it's just sorta like all guys just do it.

Most all girls do it.

Girls get horny, too! We just don't watch porn--at least, most of us don't. We keep it quiet and secret.

Me? 6-7 times a week.

janniepeg agony aunt2 or 3 times a week. I think women masturbate just as much. In Tao, it's encouraged that a woman masturbates as much as she wants but not for a male because he loses vitality and feels drained afterwards.
