Masturbation, what is it for?

For who ?

Are there any risks in carrying out “this often solitary sexual practice consisting of touching the genitals to obtain pleasure”?

In this episode of our meeting “Tout Sexplication”, our guest is Chloé Thibaud, journalist and author.

She recently published the book

Hum Hum, And if we really talked about sex?

, illustrated by Eugénie Debesse (Webedia Books, September 2022).

A book to discuss sex with teenagers and adults who have questions.

"The guys jerk off, the chicks too, yes"

In this interview, to be found above, Chloé Thibaud returns to this often solitary sexual practice.

“I think it's a fabulous power of the human body to be able to give yourself pleasure, all alone, free of charge, quietly, she underlines.

And when you're young, the other big benefit is getting to know yourself and your body.

To then explore a shared sexuality”.

“Guys jerk off, chicks too, yes” is a title of his book.

Because if the few evocations of this sexual practice in the culture relate to male masturbation, girls and women can give each other pleasure just as much (We talked about it in a previous podcast, with Lucile Bellan, author).

Where to have fun?

Why is masturbation a practice that cannot be seen, unless others consent?

What advice to practice safely?

What is the interest of lubrication?
