Ask a Question
Question:
Dear Professor Stanley Ducharme,
I want to tell you again how much I appreciate your expertise, which you share generously with me one time before, your time and understanding.
If I may, I want to ask one more question about adolescent sexuality, and I would be very grateful if you can clarify this to me. I apologize in advance for such an “open” question, but I think that you, as the Sex Educator, receive many “explicit” questions.
According to some books, the majority of men masturbate using the hand, and
only the minority of men masturbate by friction of the penis against a pillow, a bed,
etc. According to the same literature, the rubbing the penis against a pillow and a bed is aanother common practice especially for adolescence, which simulates intercourse.
I am wondering: is friction against a pillow considered a normal and healthy masturbatory technique for boys and men? And which masturbatory method is better for the sexual well being: by hand or rubbibg the penis against a bed, a pillow, etc.?
Once again, thank you so much for your knowledge, kindness and willingness to educate people and clarify some issues of human sexuality. I hope to receive your clarification.
With warm regards

Sorry about the delay in answering this question. I have been out of town. Youy are correct that using a pillow or rubbing against the bed are very normal ways that many young men use to masturbate. They are completly normal. If a person rubs the penis against an object for masturbation, make sure it is very soft. Rubbing against a hard object such as the wall can be dangerous and cause future erection problems. Again, using the pillow is very common and completly normalReviewed by Sexual Health Editorial Team
