Female Masturbation Techniques

Masturbation is a healthy, pleasurable part of your sex life. Whether or not you are in a relationship, making time to masturbate allows you to experience way more pleasure and unleash more powerful orgasms! Here are some thoughts on essential female masturbation techniques to get you exploring with confidence.

Masturbation is how you get to know your own body. In this episode, we first explore how to get in touch with your desires,  get more aroused and learn how to have orgasms. Then, you can bring all of this knowledge to your partnered sex so you can enjoy more pleasure with your lover.

Learning new female masturbation techniques can help you discover whole new parts of your sexuality and become more in touch with how you like to be touched.

Female Masturbation Techniques: Use Your Hands

Female Masturbation TechniquesUse your hands to explore your entire sexual system. Don’t rush right to your clitoris. Explore what it feels like to touch your labia, your mons and the perineum. Try lots of different kinds of stimulation to wake up new kinds of sensation. You can also zero in on the clitoris to get to orgasm – but try to experience more kinds of stimulation as you build arousal.

Many of these techniques are demonstrated in our Foreplay Mastery Course, and can be used either with a partner or as female masturbation techniques.

Essential Female Masturbation Techniques : Explore Your Sexual System

First, rest your hand on the mons and just take a few relaxed breaths.

Find the outer labia. Touch the entire outside labia, gliding one or two fingers along the length. Then, gather the flesh of the outer labia (might be quite a lot, or a small ripple of tissue) and gently pinch and roll the labia between your fingers.

Feel the texture of the lips and notice what, if any sensation, you are creating. Some people have quite a lot of erotic sensation in their outer labia – other women have very little.

Try this stroke with the inner labia as well if there is enough flesh to play with. The shape and size of the labia is different for every woman – but all have the potential of being a pleasurable part of the female sexual anatomy. Explore the area and notice what sensations you can create by stimulating the labia.  Stimulating the labia is important, as it brings blood flow to the genitals and begins waking up the area without direct clitoral stimulation.

The perineum is a highly sensitive part of the female anatomy that often goes overlooked. The perineum is a nexus of nerves and an intersection of musculature. Use your thumb in small circles on the perineum. Pulse in and out, using quite deep pressure. Move one finger in small circles around the perineum.

Rest your fingers just outside the entrance to the vagina. Pause. Explore this area of the opening – there are a lot of nerve endings here and circling around the outside can be highly stimulating. Use a fingerpad and trace circles around the entrance,  and trace small circles for a few moments just inside the entrance along the bottom wall, then vibrate your finger a little.

If you can reach, use your own fingers to explore your g-spot and try a range of stimulation techniques to see how much sensation you can feel inside. Try circles, long strokes, pulses and vibrations around the g-spot and see what feels best. Combine g-spot stimulation with clitoral stimulation for maximum pleasure.

Female Masturbation Techniques: Use Toys

We believe that hands are the best sexual tool ever invented! But there are lots of female masturbation techniques that can only be explored with toys. Check out our page on sex toys to get linked up to some of our favorite toys.

Smartballs are one of our favorite kinds of sex toys. These weighted balls arouse a lot of vaginal sensation, strengthen your pelvic muscles and can be a great compliment to clitoral stimulation.

You can also explore with the wide range of sex toys that are available. Like anal stimulation? Try incorporating butt plugs into your masturbation. Love your nipples played with? Put nipple clamps on and tug at them as you touch your clitoris. Your body is your own playground – explore it fully!

The more female masturbation techniques you experiment with, the more knowledge you will gain about your sexuality. Then you’ll be able to communicate with your lover and ask for exactly what you want in bed.

Lubricants

BEST Choice: Organic Lubricant!

Organic Lubricant

 

Your very best choice for sexual health is an organic, all natural lubricant! Most lubricants contain toxic chemicals that can irritate the sensitive tissues of both the male and female genitals. Skip the icky stuff and go for an all natural organic lube. Our favorite? The delicious lube from Good Clean Love.

Water Based Lubricants

 

Water based lubricants are a great choice. They are easy to find and inexpensive. Many brands, however, have potentially harmful chemicals.

Look for brands containing natural ingredients, and make sure your lubricant is paraben-free and glycerin-free!

Glycerin is a sweetener added to lube that can promote yeast infections. Glycerin-free lubes are a better choice for women and men alike.

 

Silicone Based Lubricants

Silicone lubricants are an excellent choice for anal play. Silicone lubes stay slick for a very long time and don’t get sticky like water based lubricant.

Silicone lubes are safe for use with latex condoms, but should not be used with silicone toys (like dildos or butt plugs) – when in doubt, use a water based lube.

 

Oil Based Lubricants: 

Commercially available oil based lubricant, like Vaseline or any kind of lotion, should not be used for sex play. These products contain harsh chemicals that will irritate the sensitive tissues of the genitals and anus.

Natural oils like coconut oil, almond oil or even olive oil have been used for centuries as sexual lubricant, and are much safer than lotions – but any product containing oil of any kind is NOT latex compatible – oils degrade latex and cause condom failure.

Smartballs

Over the past five years I have purchased about twenty sets of Smartballs from Fun Factory. They last forever, and I’m not much of a collector, so why so many? I love Smartballs so much they are my go-to gift for weddings, baby showers and birthdays. I bought both my sisters Smartballs and even got a pair for my mother!

Smartballs are a ben wa ball style toy, and we think they are the best on the market. Smartballs are weighted balls covered in the highest quality silicone, made to insert vaginally for vaginal exercise and stimulation. They come in a one ball or two ball model and, although they are on the larger side, most women find them comfortable once fully inserted.

With the balls inserted, your vaginal and pelvic muscles immediately go to work, flexing around the balls and responding to the slight rolling sensation of the weights inside the outer ball. You might feel a wide range of sensations, from the “i gotta pee” sensation to a highly arousing stimulation.

Wear your Smartballs for five minutes at a time to begin, and work your way up to an hour or more. You can even wear them as you run your errands, go on a date or relax at home. They are an easy way to tone and stimulate your pelvic muscles, leading to a healthier sexual system, stronger arousal and better orgasms.

Penis Sleeves

Penis sleeves are a kind of sex toy for men, designed to fit snugly around the penis and add texture and intensity to stimulation as the shaft is stroked through the sleeve.

Tenga Eggs are the most popular penis sleeve on the market, with good reason. The fabulous design includes variety of textures gives men a huge range of options, and finding your favorite is a fun masturbation project. The closed-end design creates a suction effect around the head of the penis, adding to the heightened pleasure of masturbation with this toy.

Tenga Eggs are sold as disposable, but they can easily be washed out and used multiple times. At under $10 each they are a great deal for your solo sex life.
