Masterbation - from a woman's perspective

[awkward]

Hi.  I have a few questions about masterbation from a woman's perspective.  Every post I've seen about masterbation has been from guys.  Do the effects of masterbation differ w/ men and women?  I've only masterbated twice in my whole life and I'm 19.  I don't think that's bad.  Actually I think it's quite good.  But anyway, I've been getting mixed feelings about masterbation.  Some say it's healthy, some say it's a health hazard.  Some say it's only addicitive if you do it 5-10 times per day others say even if you start off with a little bit you'll get addicted eventually.  

I'm just trying to find ways to relieve my sexual tension w/o hurting myself.  As of now I'm thinking about ruling masterbation out.  Sex is out cause I'm waiting until I'm married.  Is it true if you masterbate too much you'll lose sensitivity in your vagina?  Are the effects of masterbation the same for men and women or do they differ?

Thanks for your help.

I agree with you Enjoyit_more. Masturbation is absolutely normal!  Some people do it and some don't, it's a personal preference. Don't let other people sway your decision because they are judging you or encouraging it. I'm personally 17 years old and do it  because it feels great and is a stress reliever. It helps with sexual tension and helps me stay abstinent till I'm ready. I don't see any health risk so why not? Besides it shouldn't matter how much you do it, as long as it doesn't interfere with your life. I say if your comfortable with it and your self go ahead and do it and if not comfortable don't do it. It's your choice and simple, no one has to know unless you want them to. Again your choice, it's choice weather you become addicted or try other things after you try it. Don't stress over it and just relax.

tjhh.. I was about your age when I started masterbating (now 21) and now I do it on the daily. At that age I had to get creative with things I used since at that age there is no way to get a dildo without some embarrassment. I would recommend not using a hot dog as that is processed meat product and you never know what germs/bacterias are in there. You have to be safe with what you are putting in yourself because your vagina can be a very sensitive thing and you don't to cause an infection or anything like that. I remember using a curling iron or a mascara tube after I washed them with soap and water. Make sure there are only smooth edges on these things you use because that can scrap and cause injury!
Also keep in mind you don't have to put anything inside at all to orgasm. Clit stimulation can get you there. But don't be afraid to experiment! Good luck with your masterbation girl!
