How to masturbate?
This can be done in several different ways. But one very classic way (which is probably the one you most often see reproduced on film) is to wrap your hand tightly around the shaft of the penis and then run your hand up and down in a fixed rhythm. The closer you get to climax, the faster you often move your hand.
At least that's one way to do it. But basically masturbation in boys, men and people with a penis is about stimulating the erogenous zones. And it often involves stroking or otherwise touching the penis.
Stimulation of the penis head
At the end of the penis is the head of the penis. This is where the semen squirts out when you ejaculate. The head of the penis is particularly sensitive and some find it nice to be stimulated here. You can pull back the foreskin a little bit, so that the smooth and sensitive skin on the head is exposed to an extra intense feeling.
Stimulation of the shaft of the penis
As I said, the classic is to fold the hand around the shaft and run the hand up and down. But you can also stimulate the penis by placing the penis against the stomach and stroking it from below and up the shaft for a change. For that matter, you can also use other things than just your hand: It could e.g. be a vibrator or a penis sleeve.
Stimulation of the testicles
Nuts, buns, testicles. Whatever you call them, it can be nice to touch them while masturbating. Hold a hand gently around them, caress them, or use a gentle vibrator against them for extra intense tickling.
Stimulation of the anus
Some people find it nice to also touch the anus while masturbating. The anus is a sensitive area with extra nerve endings. If you're up for it, you can go in search of the so-called g-spot: Approx. four cm up in the rectum is the prostate, and if you apply a gentle but firm pressure to this exact point with one finger, while you stimulate the penis with the other hand, it is possible to take your orgasm to new heights. Remember lube - it makes it much easier (and more comfortable) to insert the finger.

3 tips for masturbation
1. Use a vibrator - If you thought a vibrator was only for people with a clitoris, then rejoice, because you are wrong! At Klub Venus you will find e.g. our little vibrator, Mushy , which is shaped like a mushroom. Because the vibrations are distributed over the entire surface of Mushy, it feels less intense than other vibrators, and can also be used by you who have a penis. Stroke it up and down the shaft of the penis, around the head of the penis and give your testicles a loving, vibrating lap as well.
2. Use a penis sleeve - Have you ever heard of one? A penis sleeve is a form of sheath with structure that feels delicious to slide up and down the penis. First put lubricant in your penis sleeve and then insert the penis. Now you can use your hand to guide the sleeve up and down the shaft of the penis. At Klub Venus you will find i.a. Geo Coral , which does the trick.
3. Use lube - You don't need a lot of gear and toys to masturbate. But if you have to invest in one thing to up your masturbation game, let it be a lubricant. If you masturbate without a toy, we would recommend that you use a silicone-based one of this kind to give your solo sex life a completely new, velvety dimension.
