The wife of a friend recently made a remark about masturbation and single men to a small company in which I was the only unattached male. There was a brief moment of embarrassment before the conversation moved. Afterwards, she took the opportunity to apologise rather awkwardly. I just laughed and said masturbation was one of life's pleasures, that of course I did it and I wasn't the slightest embarrassed about admitting it. In fact I was pleased to have her know I was a masturbator. Women know objectively that all men masturbate but that's a bit different to knowing about the personal habits of the men of their acquaintance. Although I do remember a girlfriend once saying of a man we knew that she 'wondered what he looked like when he masturbated', so they are interested. I could have said he looks the same as me except that there are so many different ways of doing it. My very first girlfriend asked me if I 'did it' and I said no; I've regretted that denial ever since and as a result I've always been upfront with women about my masturbation and found them sympathetic. A girl I worked with once called me a wanker to my face during an argument and was disconcerted when I replied 'so what'? Perhaps she was worried I might accuse her back. I wouldn't have done because I think women are entitled to masturbatory privacy. But I love the idea of men having their masturbation out there. What do other guys think - are you happy to wear the badge of Onan?

I'm becumming more interested in admitting I'm a wanker. It all starts here online. Just looking for an opportunity to tell someone face to face. Who knows what that could lead to?

I adore my cock and I am a chronic, addicted masturbator!

It was never a problem for me to admit that I masturbated to the women that I was intimate with.
For the last few years, since my wife died, the subject has also come up(no pun intended) with both women and men.
My response, "I'm a widower, I live alone and I ain't dead yet. What do you think I do?"

I openly admit it and in the past have really loved wanking and cumming while gfs watched and rubbed themselves

I like your comeback to the derogatory usage of the term "wanker". I have a woman friend who often will call someone she doesn't think much of a wanker and I've often wondered how to best respond.

For one, I'd like to call her on the implicit condemnation of masturbation. As someone who wanks frequently her words condemn me as much as it does whoever she is talking about (whose masturbatory habits are not the issue).

Each time is also a potential opportunity to open a conversation about masturbation and the fact that I do, I enjoy it greatly and I wish it were something I could talk about more freely.

I guess I should simply ask, "what's wrong with wanking?"

She already knows that I am a nudist, has seen me nude a couple of times (she used to garden at the place where I regularly garden in the nude), and once introduced me to a friend as her "favorite nudist." Maybe some day she'll introduce me as her "favorite wanker." It's something I'd like to be proud of.

A lot of these posts are from older guys like me. This topic was perhaps more taboo in the past. I'd be interested in hearing from younger guys about how they deal with it today. Are things much more free wheeling as it seems on the surface or are they out front with this and other sexual topics in mixed company?

Many years ago, before I had a computer of my own, I was invited to let myself into a neighbor's backyard paint studio and use their computer whenever I felt like it. It did not take long to discover - and become addicted to - online pornography. I of course masturbated at every opportunity. At cocktails one day, with 7 or 8 people present, both male and female, the neighbor's wife mentioned that I "seemed to get a LOT of emails. Sometimes he is out there for HOURS!" The implication was obvious, but then she added, "I don't mind, as long as he keeps cleaning up the deposits." I was surprised at her first comment, and stunned by the second. I wish I had the moment back to own up to it, and ask everyone what type of material THEY used to masturbate to....

I'm 22 and I have no problem talking about mastrubation candidly. All of my female friends know I beat off. I have guy friends who try to say they don't around girls because they "don't need to" but we always call them on it. I was working this morning and we were talking about boxers vs boxer briefs and I said that you produce fewer viable sperm in briefs because of temperature control and the guy who had just switched from boxers to boxer briefs said he was cumming less when he beat off and wondered if that was why but that he wasn't mad because clean up was way easier. I don't think the younger generation really cares.

I am a married masturbator, and I love it so much that it has become my sole means of sexual satisfaction. I have not had the chance to tell that to a woman face to fsce but am looking forward to it. It excites me to think that a woman not only knows I jack off but that I prefer to jack off.

My wife and I was dating, laying in bed, she had gotten out of hospital a few days earlier. I really needed to unload a load of cum. I started to jackoff, my now wife, said she wanted to do that! She took control, and still does. I know several women who really get turned on watching a man jackoff!!!

I have become increasingly more open about masturbation. In the past I never admitted to my wife or girl friends that I masturbated. However, that all changed with my present gf. Not only have I told her that I masturbate, as well as some of the details about how and how often, she has also told me how often she masturbates and, surprise surprise, it's as often as me - about 3 times a week.

Only one response from a younger guy and I want to hear from them.

No reason to hide it. If you are open and easy about it, the better chance of sharing it with someone else who enjoys it too.

Yep...Never been asked but would certainly fess up to it without hesitation....At our age we should be able to admit to all those guilty pleasures as adults....I wish women would share more about masturbation with their mates...I'm divorced, never jerked around her or seen her stroke herself...

Too bad as i would have loved to share with her...Most women are too uptight to even bring it up and that's why we guys do it secretly...

You have no idea how lucky you are...a wife or g/f who shares jerking with you...
