Here’s a myth the Velvet Co folks busted for us: that masturbating kills sexual desire. In some couples, there’s a no-masturbation or minimal-masturbation rule specifically for the men. The idea behind it is often that, the more a man masturbates, the less he’ll feel like having sex with his partner. But studies have actually found that regular masturbation has actually very little effect on a man’s testosterone levels (which play a big role in his sex drive). If your man seems to be so addicted to masturbation that he chooses it over sex with you, that’s a problem, but don’t fear if he helps himself a few times a week that he won’t desire you when sexy time comes around.
In celebration of Masturbation Month, we wanted to get some tips from the experts on how to get the most out of self-pleasure, as well as how to reframe your thinking around it.
