Why trust us?
It’s likely not a surprise to you that men masturbate more frequently than women do, but now there are actual stats to prove it—thanks to Indiana University's National Survey Of Sexual Health And Behavior, which fivethirtyeight.com wrote about in a recent story .
Depending on your own self-pleasuring habits, the titillating facts will either shock or mildly interest you. Regarding the highest-frequency masturbators, 5% of women ages 25-29 engage in solo sessions more than 4 times a week, while 20.1% of men do. The gap closes in for those who reported masturbating multiple times a month, with 21.5% of women ages 25-29 and 25.4% of men in that same age group. But the disparity generally remains the same throughout our lives, with women coming in at least 10-15 percentage points behind men in each category. Another stat: The older we get, the more likely we are to report not masturbating at all, ever (and that’s true for both men and women). Read the fivethirtyeight.com story to see even more sexy intel.
We asked a food editor to taste test these edible sex toys—here's what happened:
Studies have shown that there are tons of physical and mental upsides to masturbating: not only does it zap stress and anxiety, women who please themselves have higher self-esteem better body image, and a more active sex life than women who don’t. Plus, there are so many reasons why masturbating can be even better than sex : for starters, you don’t have to wait until someone else is in the mood, you don’t have to shave or dress sexy, and you definitely don’t have to think about anybody else’s needs but your own. Want to help narrow the gap between male and female self-pleasurers? A little experimentation will do wonders for your solo sex life: try a vibrator, a dildo, or even your showerhead. And if you give yourself one gift this year, consider making it finding your own G-spot (if you haven’t already).
Bottom line: Masturbating is the gift that keeps on giving, whether you’re single or married, 25 or 55. While every woman may not be servicing herself (yet), there's no denying the physical and mental upsides of masturbation, whether you do it once a day, month, year, or even once a decade.

Everyone has a slightly different ritual when it comes to self-love, but for many people that adventure involves a visit to Pornhub.
We asked the folks at the adult entertainment behemoth to give us a look into what people are searching for when it comes to masturbation videos -- and they've provided some very interesting insights .
When it comes to masturbation-specific search terms, the results are fairly consistent with what they told us last year. There remains an interest in voyeurism, with various searches for "public" and "caught" variety ranking high. Though clearly the general term "masturbation" still reigns supreme.
As for how searches break down by demographic groups, women are 24 percent more likely to watch masturbation videos than men. And users under the age of 35 are far less likely to seek out masturbation videos than people who are 45 and up.
Men and women also differ when it comes to specific searches. Women are 87 percent more likely to search the term "masturbation" and way more likely to search for male-related masturbation videos like "solo male masturbation" (305 percent more likely), "male masturbation" (276 percent more likely), and "hot guy masturbating" (389 percent more likely).
Meanwhile, men are more likely to search for things like "jerk off challenge" (66 percent), "jerk off encouragement" (65 percent), and "jerk off instruction" (51 percent). Make of that what you will.
Geographically speaking, these states lead the way for masturbation searches: New Mexico (27 percent above the national average), Alaska (22 percent above), and Kansas (14 percent above). Meanwhile, these two states are the least likely to search for masturbation videos: Wyoming (42 percent below the national average) and Idaho (38 percent below).
If you're looking for larger geographic patterns, you're more likely to search for masturbation-related videos if you live in the wild, wild southwest than you are if you from the south. California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico are all above the national average while Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and North and South Carolinas are all below that average.
So there you have it. If you're a woman over 55 living in New Mexico, congratulations: You're probably celebrating National Masturbation Month in style.

Clicking the mouse. Auditioning the finger puppets. Paddling the pink canoe. Finger painting. There are a whole lot of silly euphemisms for masturbation, and research shows most women over the age of 18 have done it at least once. But how often do women regularly masturbate? FiveThirtyEight crunched the numbers and found out.
FiveThirtyEight's Mona Chalabi analyzed Indiana University's National Survey Of Sexual Health And Behavior (NSSHB) to create an infographic illustrating how often men and women masturbate according to age. The NSSHB collected data from 5,865 Americans between the ages of 14 and 94 between March and May 2009.
While masturbation is a normal, healthy and (definitely) enjoyable experience, it looks like we have yet to shake the taboo surrounding women and masturbation. Perhaps unsurprisingly, men masturbate far more frequently than women do.
Infographic credited to Mona Chalabi and FiveThirtyEight .
As Chalabi points out, women are less likely to try masturbating, however, there is still a large gender gap when it comes to routine masturbation. Only 7.9 percent of women between the ages of 25 and 29 masturbate two to three times a week whereas 23.4 percent of men do.
This is one gender gap we can close all on our own. So, let's get to it.

We all harbor secrets. Some are big and bad; some are small and trivial. Researchers have parsed which truths to tell and which not to.

An old joke observes that 98 percent of people masturbate, and the other 2 percent are lying . But according to a recent study based on a representative sample of American adults, only 38 percent of women said they'd masturbated at all during the past year. The figure for men was 61 percent.
The study by University of Chicago sociologists analyzed data from 3,116 Americans aged 18 to 60 (1,769 women and 1,347 men) gathered during face-to-face interviews as part of the National Health and Social Life Survey. The interviewers asked, "On average, over the past 12 months, how often did you masturbate?" It's possible that the face-to-face format suppressed the response. Some people might not have admitted masturbating to an interviewer. But even allowing for this possibility, it seems clear that masturbation is by no means as prevalent as the old joke suggests, or as many people believe.
Previous studies have shown that men are most likely to masturbate from their teens into middle age. That was partly true in this study. Men's masturbation rate fell somewhat after age 50. But on the whole, men who masturbate continue to do so into later life.
However, it apparently takes young women some time to warm up to masturbation. In this study, women aged 20 to 39 were the most likely to masturbate, with lower rates among women 18 to 20 and those over 40.
Previous research has shown that masturbation becomes more likely with increased education , greater frequency of sexual thoughts, sexual experimentation before puberty , and a larger number of lifetime sexual relationships. This study agreed on both sexes.
Previous studies have suggested that poor health reduces masturbation. In this study, that was true for women, but not for men. Men who masturbate keep doing it regardless of their health.
Previous studies have shown that compared with people raised in families that are religiously liberal or non-observant, those raised in fundamentalist families report less masturbation. This study agreed.
Traditionally, masturbation has been regarded as a convenient sexual outlet for people who lack a lover. In this study, that held true for both men and women.
In this study, white people were the most enthusiastic masturbators. African-Americans, Asian-Americans, and Pacific Islanders reported less masturbation.
In American culture, masturbation is often viewed as a sexual refuge for singles, as a way to compensate for a lack of sex in a relationship. In this survey, that turned out not to be the case. In both genders, a sexless relationship suppressed masturbation. Respondents who masturbated the most were usually involved in a sexual relationship. Having partner sex, it appears, piques interest in solo sex.
Finally, sex involves both physical and emotional closeness. In this study, any disconnect between these two elements, i.e., physical contact but no emotional closeness or visa versa, was associated with increased masturbation. In fact, for women, one of the best predictors of masturbation was a relationship that lacked emotional intimacy .
Sadly, like most sex surveys, this one did not include people over 60, despite a growing research literature that most of those over 60 remain sexual.
Bottom line: Masturbation is considerably less prevalent than many people believe, and its frequency depends on many personal and socio-economic factors.
