Before my friend and I both had girlfriends, we wondered what it would be like to see each other masturbate. We'd talked about masturbation before then, but never felt comfortable enough to watch each other. One day when we were both 15, we decided to watch one of my older brother's porno movies. Even though I wanted to, I was too scared to bring up the idea of masturbating together. Finally he just said he was going to "take care of business" and pulled out his erect penis right there. I joined in a few moments later. We must have masturbated together for at least an hour. It was very erotic and we both enjoyed the activity. We masturbated together for almost a year whenever we got the chance. Those days are long gone, now that we both have girlfriends and are in college. Although I'm certainly not gay, I look back on those experiences and wonder if we'll ever do something like that again.

I watched my dog masturbate — this is how I learned how to do it. He got really mad at me when he found out, though. Now he takes showers with the door locked.

Watching is such an awesome thing! In college, my girlfriend and I would watch each other masturbate all the time. We also had a male and female friend that would sometimes join us. We would always be touching somehow, with a great view of each other. It was so hot to watch another guy and girl or two other girls with their hands busy. It was also very exciting to masturbate in front of one or two other people and have them watch everything. We would demonstrate and watch each other try anal exploration. Very hot!

I share a room with my 19-year-old brother, so of course I have watched someone masturbate. At first, I was curious about what he was doing, and then I felt kind of gross — just like when his girlfriend comes over and I have to pretend that I am asleep. But then I started asking him questions about masturbating, and he showed me some techniques. Since then, we have masturbated each other and together. Plus, he showed me JackinWorld. Sometimes, we look at it together.

When we were 17, my friend and I were walking home from a party late one night. My group of guy friends had just recently started admitting that we masturbate and talking more openly about it. When we got to his house, we decided to masturbate in his backyard and watch each other. It was the best masturbation session I have ever had!

A couple of times when I slept over at my best friend's place, we have watched each other masturbate. We had gone to bed and were lying there in the dark, talking. We started talking about girls, and sooner or later, both had our hands in our boxers. My friend turned to me and said, "Are you masturbating?" I said yes, so we just watched each other. It has made us closer friends.

An old girlfriend and I used to masturbate for each other. She loved to watch me stroke myself, especially at the end when I would pump rapidly, curl my toes, and explode. I loved to watch her finger herself and stimulate her clitoris. We'd have stop-and-go sessions, where we would watch one another and then climax together. I would also watch her with her vibrator, which was a real turn-on.

Not quite — on several occasions I've masturbated with my cousin, but without staring much (or at all) at his erection. I can clearly remember the first time we did this. He was sleeping over at our place, and we were sharing a bed in the living room. We had stayed awake quite late and chanced to see an adult program while switching channels. I suggested that we "mimic" (grin) the masturbating males we were watching. The room was dark and we stroked ourselves under the blankets. I had neither chance nor wish to actually watch him masturbate.

My friend and I had been speaking quite openly about masturbation and sex over the Internet. We both frequent JackinWorld, having read pretty much the entire site. We got onto the subject of mutual masturbation and agreed that we liked the idea and wanted to try it. So, about two months ago, when he was over at my house, I mentioned that a friend had given me a tape with erotica. We started to watch that, and soon were both so horny that we started masturbating in front of each other. He's still nervous about it, but I hope that sometime it will go further.

Rarely, I have watched my wife masturbate and enjoyed it greatly. However, I have never seen a guy masturbate when it was just the two of us. I have observed guys masturbating in public places, such as in public restrooms or in the locker room at the gym, especially the showers. Usually, I get nervous and turn or walk away — but occasionally, it has been interesting just to see how other guys do it. It's a bit of a turn-on, *not* like I would want to do it with that guy, but more like I would want to go home and try his technique. I'm quite standard when it comes to masturbation, so I always look for new ways to please myself. Thanks to JackinWorld I have learned more and more about pleasuring myself — and feeling good about it! Still, I don't talk much about masturbation with other guys because I don't want to seem weird or obsessed with it.

During a sleepover, a friend and I watched each other masturbate. We both enjoyed it and have since made it a ritual for every time we sleep over at each other's house. I enjoy it every time. He once asked if what we were doing makes us gay. I don't think it does, because girls still turn me on. Either way, I look forward to the next time we have a sleepover.

When I was 12, my best friend spent the night at my house, along with another boy. After a while, we began playing truth or dare, and one thing led to another. Neither the other boy nor I had ever masturbated to orgasm, and even though we were all the same age, my best friend was much more physically developed. I was curious about what semen looks like, so I asked to watch him masturbate. My friend grabbed a tissue, placed it over his pubic hair, and went to it. It probably took him all of two minutes to climax. My best friend and I felt closer after that night. Sometimes when I masturbate, I still think of this moment from many years ago.

Once I was spending the night at my friend's house and we started talking about circumcision. We decided to compare penises, because I am circumcised and he isn't. Then we masturbated in front of each other, and now we do it all the time.

My older brother introduced me to the wonderful world of masturbation, and we spent many pleasant times together, enjoying watching each other. Because he told me it was normal and every guy does it, I didn't hesitate to discuss it with my friends, and then we'd also masturbate, watching each other. That continued until I married, and of course my wife and I watched each other. I guess I'm lucky to have shared masturbation with so many people, since it is one of my favorite activities.

At my all-boy boarding school, I was having a shower when I heard someone go into the cubicle next to mine. A little while later, I heard a loud slapping noise. In my naivety, I peered around my curtain and into his shower, where I saw him masturbating. After a few shocked seconds, I left him to his own devices and never mentioned it to him.

When I was a teenager, several of my friends and I did some mutual masturbation as well as watching each other masturbate. I found it interesting to watch as someone else masturbated and ejaculated. And together, we learned techniques from each other. I'm not ashamed or embarrassed about any of this; rather, I see it as part of my sexual development. I'd add that even today as an adult, if I weren't married, I'd probably consider doing the same things.

A friend and I were camping out and started talking about sex. We both got erections and decided to masturbate as we talked. It was a very exciting experience at the time, but then we both felt weird about it afterwards.

I have watched men masturbate on several occasions in the mall near where I work. If you sit just right in the stalls, you can see the reflection of the guy next to you. I have seen many men relieve themselves — usually businessmen on their lunch hour. I am straight, but I think it's hot to watch.

I watched my girlfriend masturbate and it was amazing! Seeing her bring herself to climax made me so hard.
- age 18, Florida
I've watched a few male partners masturbate, either because they were showing me how they pleasured themselves, or because I wasn't really in the mood for sex and they just did for themselves while I cuddled them and sometimes told them sexy stories. It hasn't exactly been a thrilling experience for me — it's more a "whatever" experience, in fact. I'd love to watch a woman masturbate, but I've never had the opportunity. I think it would be sexier to watch and that I'd pick up some new ideas from it.

My friends and I masturbated together often — usually after school. I would watch my friend stroke for as long as he could without climaxing. It was something we had done before, but we decided to "edge," I think it's called. After about an hour of that he climaxed and his ejaculation was most impressive. I like it, but take this warning: If you masturbate with someone, don't sit facing him — it builds up quite a release!

Oh my, I started early! At 13, my neighbor-and-gal-pal and I discovered the art of masturbation and spent most of the next two years (until she moved away) doing each other and ourselves in front of each other whenever we could. When I began fooling around with boys, I was able to talk many of them into giving me a "demonstration." Actually, it was helpful, because I learned what pleased them as they pleasured themselves. Right now, I am a college senior and I have been involved with my roommate (female) for over two years. Mutual masturbation, as well as watching each other doing "it," is a wonderful part of our sex life.

I have watched someone masturbate a few times — just two people, though: an ex-boyfriend and an old friend. When we were in the 7th grade, I watched my friend for the first time when I was sleeping over at his house. It was one of those long talks in the dark before you go to sleep when we got onto the subject of sex and then penis size. It led to the "you-show-me-yours-and-I'll-show-you-mine" thing. While he had his penis out, he popped one and asked if I would mind him getting off. I said it was totally okay, and watched him (while also getting myself off, actually). I felt weird at first, watching this guy with whom I'd grown up masturbate. But then it became a major turn-on. It didn't take either of us very long to ejaculate. Although it happened a few other times, we don't really talk about it. I was afraid that might make things weird between us, but it didn't — it only made us a little closer and more open with sexual things.

My girlfriend wasn't on her birth control at the time, so we each masturbated. It turned both of us on to watch the other person. I think watching a girl play with herself is a huge turn-on. Just as I was finishing, I turned to her and kissed her. It was a great kiss. I don't think I'll ever forget that.

I am a bisexual female, and find it *very* erotic to watch my girlfriend finger herself. When I just can't stand it anymore, I have to help her. It's so much more fun that way.
- age 16, Australia (female)
Sometimes my wife and I masturbate in front of each other. I do notice that when I climax it quickens her climax. She also likes to watch the semen run down my hands. She sometimes rubs it on her nipples. I get very excited watching her masturbate.

When I would have my friend over, we would go swimming in my pool. After swimming, he and I would take a shower, still in our bathing suits. Sometimes, he would take out his penis and begin to masturbate. I'm sorry now that I never joined in; it was so arousing to watch him.
- age 15, Florida
I have watched my wife masturbate more than once. I can't think of anything more erotic. I sometimes have to get involved. I like to watch her start very slowly and then build up to an earth-shattering pace. I love to see the look on her face; this is usually enough to get me to join in. I would love to watch from a hidden vantage point, just to see how far she really goes.

I watched a group of friends masturbate only once, during a school camping holiday. I was too shy to participate, because all of my friends had already grown a lot of bushy pubic hair and I had practically none at the time. I stayed in my sleeping bag, but watching them rub their penises one by one was an exciting experience for me and resulted in my first-ever ejaculation. Two of the group had never done it before. Watching their faces as they experienced their first orgasm was a sight I'll never forget.

It was very exciting — until I got his semen in my eye!

When I was 11, I saw my brother masturbating. He was 14 at the time. It was a total accident — I just woke up and he was doing it. He didn't know I was awake, and I watched him until he ejaculated, but I was too scared to ask him about it. It confused me for about two years until I started doing it myself; then I understood.
- age 15, Australia
The first sexual experiences I ever had were with a good friend of mine when I was 11 or 12. I would go over to his house, sometimes on weekends and school holidays, and we always slept in the same bed. One morning we were talking about masturbation and he asked me if I had ever done it. I said that I had, so he asked me to show him. I did, using the basic "fist" method without any lube. He thought it was nasty when I ejaculated, but I told him that was part of it. I then watched him do it as well. We agreed that it was fun, and then we played kickball.

I have watched lots of people, like my friends and brothers, but I am always masturbating with them at the same time. For me, it adds to the pleasure to watch others and be watched. The only time I saw someone masturbate when it was not a group session was when I walked in on my uncle by mistake. We both just laughed about it, and I thought it was cool that he didn't seem embarrassed about it. Seeing his erect penis did, however, make me want to go to my room afterwards and masturbate myself.

When I was younger, I watched a friend of mine masturbate. I had told him about masturbation, and he wanted me to watch him to make sure he was doing it right. Personally, I think it just turned him on to be watched. Well, it turned me on, too, so I took my clothes off to join in. That episode turned into a 7-year series of almost weekly mutual masturbation sessions that we still have occasionally. We both ended up straight, but it's still incredible to see another male doing what he does best. When we were younger, it was great to learn from each other. I hope that someday people can masturbate together as casually and commonly as they watch sports together.

I watch someone masturbate all the time — I have to watch my boyfriend do it to get turned on.
- age 15, Virginia (female)
I've seen many young lads (over legal age) masturbate in the backs of buses. At night, the windows act like mirrors and you can see a few rows behind. I've seen people masturbate, and it's turned me on so much that I have a go. I've been seen a few times, and that's quite a turn-on as well.
- age 20, United Kingdom
Sometimes I watch my male friend masturbate. I watch him for a while; then I get turned on and we have sex. I think it is the best thing ever!
- age 15, Russia (female)
My friends and I began masturbating together at age 12 and never stopped. What began as innocent experimentation continues as a form of male bonding that I wouldn't trade for the world. It's erotic, naughty, and lots of fun!
- age 39, Virginia
I find it arousing to see my girlfriend masturbate. The most disappointing thing is that she doesn't do it more often (at least when I'm there). Usually, I have to start masturbating myself to get her started, but it is always worth it. We have been together for a few years, but this aspect of our sex life is only a recent, but most welcome, addition.

When I was in college, my roommate would wait until I was asleep — or rather, *thought* I was asleep. He would then start to masturbate either sitting at his desk with a magazine or lying on his bed. I would pretend to be asleep but would peek out from under the covers or my pillow. While watching him, I would masturbate by rubbing the loose skin on the underside of my penis (just below the head) in a circular motion with a couple fingers. I would have an intense orgasm watching him achieve his. Ever since then, I have fantasized about masturbating while watching another guy do it.

When I was 15, my best friend and I found his dad's porn tapes. While we were watching, I noticed him rubbing himself. He asked me if I ever masturbated, and I said that I did. He asked if I would be embarrassed if he did it in front of me. At first I was nervous about it, but once he got into it, I felt comfortable enough to join in myself. Well, we're both married with kids now, but we still make time to watch porn and masturbate together.

I've watched my girlfriend masturbate — what a turn-on! She would do it in the car on long trips. I could hardly concentrate on the driving. She was completely uninhibited — would moan and scream. Then she would masturbate me. Oh my!

I saw my brother and his friend masturbate when we were camping. They wanted me to do it too, but I didn't want them to laugh at me because I'm not as far into puberty as they are. Still, I watched them and it was cool — especially when they ejaculated.
- age 14, Australia
Just the other night, I was asleep on the couch and awoke to find my wife watching some erotic movie on cable, her skirt above her waist, and her hand inside her pantyhose. This is no big deal; I masturbate in front of her, too.
- age 31, Ohio
I'm way too embarrassed to watch someone else when they are masturbating. I know this because it has started coming up as a subject with some of my girlfriends who don't date. We have admitted that we do it, but when two of them suggested we do it together and watch, I was totally uncomfortable and I kind of freaked out because to me it's such a personal thing. I was also embarrassed to have such an "uncool" reaction — but it's the way I am.

My wife and I frequently watch each other masturbate. It helps us to learn what the other likes and at what time we like certain things. It is a beautiful and exciting thing for us, and it usually ends up in a wild night of lovemaking.
- age 38, Illinois
My boyfriend masturbates for me all the time. I do it for him as well. It's such a turn-on to see him do it. We usually find a time when we won't be interrupted. I get him aroused, and then he goes at it. I love to watch him enjoy himself so much. I get to pay attention to all the little things, like his breathing and facial expressions. Yes, watching him masturbate is definitely one of my favorite things to do.
- age 16, Illinois (female)
About 9 years ago, I began masturbating with my cousin, who is 3 years younger. We compared size, and even to this day, we are almost identical in every way — even technique. We would put on porn and get to it, and it would always involve each of us glancing at the other when we thought he wasn't looking. Eventually, we hid nothing and would even ask if the other was ready to finish — so we held off together, too. To this day, we get together from time to time just to prove that we are not getting that much older — not yet, anyway!
