I wish I had more time to masturbate. It's almost always a rush to get through, because I don't want my parents to suspect anything when I'm in the shower. I know how to get it done quick, but it would feel so much better if I could just take it slow and easy.

If I could change one thing, it would be the amount of semen I ejaculate and how far I shoot it. I want more and I want it to go farther.
- age 15, New York
I would change the feeling AFTER the session. Afterwards, I always feel very un-horny and bad. I wish that didn't happen.

I wish I didn't have to do it by myself all the time. I think it would be cool if my friends and I could openly do it with each other and to each other. I'm not gay and I think sex with girls is great — but in masturbating, only a guy knows exactly what makes another guy feel really good. Unfortunately I'm too scared to ask any of my friends to do it. They probably want to as bad as me, but I guess we're all just too scared to admit it. I guess it's solo for me until I get enough courage.

I think I'd try to slow down. I usually have to rub pretty quickly and vigorously so I can ejaculate as soon as possible, because I don't have my own room at school. I don't think my roommate would be into masturbating at the same time that I do; otherwise, I'd be able to go about things as leisurely as I'd like.

I'd want to find a way to use something that would jack me off but keep my hands free. This way I could feel my balls and do other things one hand isn't enough for.
- age 15, New Jersey
I would like to be able to go naked all day and masturbate as many times as I want. I have to rush through usually, and even though it feels great, I'd like to have a whole day for it.
- age 14, Texas
I would like to have more semen. Don't get me wrong — I have plenty, but when you ejaculate it feels great — so the more the merrier.
- age 15, Washington
I'd transform my hand into a vagina!
- age 15, New Jersey
I'd change the amount of time it takes to get to the point of ejaculation. It takes me about ten minutes, and I masturbate with the door unlocked — so I have to check to see if anybody is around, and then I have to jump on my bed and start. Usually I have to stop and check to see if someone is coming, and then I start all over. I want to ejaculate in about five minutes.

I would change the way I always feel rushed or nervous that someone is going to catch me. That's not a turn-on to me, like it seems to be to some people, because all I want to do is relax and take my time, and I never can. My dad took all the locks off of our bedroom and bathroom doors because my youngest brother was always locking himself in someplace. He told us to respect each other's privacy, but someone is always walking in on somebody else — all 7 kids share 2 bathrooms. I've never really been caught masturbating (which I try to do about once a day), but it's been real close a couple times. Until I was about 13 I used to hump my pillow if my brothers were out of the room in the morning, until one day I had a bad experience. After I would finish, I'd always wipe up the mess with a Kleenex — but this time I had been storing it up for a couple days, so there was a lot more than usual, and the Kleenex box was empty, so I had to run to the bathroom. But before I got back my little brother came in and asked what was that on the pillow and sheet. I said I needed to blow my nose and there was no Kleenex. So he ran down the hall yelling that I blew my nose in the bed. I had an immediate audience while I cleaned up — including my mom, who gave me such a horrified look. I suspect she knew I had just masturbated, but she never said anything.

It would definitely be the sperm. Either I would make it so you could change whether or not you could ejaculate (but would still have the orgasm), or I'd change the taste and smell of it, so it would be easier to dispose of.

I would use an artificial vagina or something like that. A real vagina would be better (if you love the girl), but I could start with this.
- age 16, Belgium
I would probably make more noise. That probably sounds weird, but I hate having to be so quiet — like if everyone is asleep, or if I have to worry about someone coming home and I can't hear them come in (that would be embarrassing). I've read that if you make noise while you masturbate — not forcing yourself to moan but allowing the noises your body wants to make while you're being aroused — that your session will be much more pleasurable.

I'd have a second set of hands.

I would like to be able to go back in time before I could ejaculate. I started masturbating when I was about 11 or 12, and at that time I couldn't ejaculate yet, which was just great because I could have orgasms almost infinitely. Sometimes I would have 10 in one session, because I would not go soft afterwards! But now, sadly, my first orgasm is usually my last until I can get erect again.
- age 15, Wisconsin
I would want to change the speed I go at, and perhaps try to use my hands a lot less. (Preparing for intercourse would be a good idea.)
- age 15, Norway
I'd have a nice, soft bed with silk on top of it.
- age 18, California
I could do without the "mess" of masturbation — excessive sweating, and ejaculating at the end. I wouldn't change anything else.
- age 15, California
I'd get the best-looking girls in school, the best-looking guys in school, and have a nice, clean masturbation session with all of them. Ha! That's almost impossible.
- age 15, Massachusetts
I would change my room into an air-conditioned one, so I'd feel more comfortable.
- age 15, Singapore
I would use some sort of model of a vagina, and look at naked women instead of just thinking about them.
- age 18, Washington, DC
My sessions would take place in my own private masturbation room, with a big-screen TV playing porno videos with surround-sound so I could hear the moaning all around me. I would need a nice, comfortable bed with silk sheets so I could lie down and masturbate as loudly and as slowly as I wanted to, using the smelliest, messiest lubrications I could find. Now that would be one hell of a typical masturbation session!
- age 16, Ohio
I masturbate quite frequently (usually every night before bed), and it's beginning to lose its fun. It has become more of an addiction than a pleasure thing. I want the "rush" to come back.
- age 25, California
It would definitely be to have more privacy. Usually when I get a chance to masturbate, it's in bed or someplace else where I have to be careful and quiet. I'd like to be able to get naked, make noise, and be creative in how I get off — but when there's a chance of getting caught, I just can't do that.
- age 15, Ohio
I would love to be able to have my semen spurt out instead of dribble. I would also love to get right to the orgasm, because it takes too long.
- age 14, Illinois
I wouldn't just change my session, I would change society. At school they would have a 20-minute class every other day where students would be put into groups (ugly and pretty, different ages, both sexes) and would watch each other masturbate. We could learn a lot, and it would be a great midday release. Maybe it sounds stupid, but it would be really cool if society were more open on this subject.

Do you find yourself masturbating more often during some seasons than others? Why?

IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ABOUT YOUR TYPICAL MASTURBATION SESSION, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
[Notes: The most common responses (roughly in order) were: That someone else was masturbating with me; That it would last longer (or) That I could have multiple orgasms; (and) That I could have more privacy. Probably 90% of the responses consisted of one or more of those.]
