When I first came to JackinWorld I tried out some of the techniques, but after a while I just did what was most comfortable to me. When I'm doing other techniques I'm concentrating more on doing it right than making it feel good. I just let my body do what it wants to. I still love this site, though. I guess it's because it's the only place on earth where I can talk openly about this subject without getting hassled.

JackinWorld has helped me not to feel guilty about masturbating even though I'm married. I have realized how many other married males also masturbate.

I used to masturbate 4 times a week, but after reading JackinWorld, I began to masturbate every day, with many different techniques.

Your female section isn't that great, but I often find reading the personal stories and letters to be a great turn-on!

I have been reading JackinWorld for about 2 years and have never really tried any of the alternative techniques. However, JackinWorld certainly has influenced my habits. Many of my hang-ups about masturbation are now gone, and I enjoy it much more. Now, I think about a session and do *try* some varied techniques, although not many. I now masturbate freely and find that my orgasms are far more enjoyable than they were. I guess you could say the only technique change is my masturbation frequency: I now climax at least twice a session — daily if I can.

I have found the techniques are either too complex or don't work.

Other than finding out more about how to use the "Stop & Go" method, reading JackinWorld has not really changed my masturbation method much. I think I was already set in my ways when I started reading JackinWorld about 2 years ago. However, it definitely helped me to get over the uncomfortable stigma and paranoia left over from my teenage years. It also caused me to question the whole psychology and philosophy behind the masturbation phenomenon. Recently, I became a freelance writer for JackinWorld and have contributed articles to JackinLibrary.

Reading JackinWorld has made me feel a little better about my masturbation practices: I'm doing it right, and it won't hurt me. I've become a bit more secure about my penis size, knowing it's within the "average" range, albeit on the low side of the scale. As for techniques, I've tried your "Vagina" method and found it very pleasurable, especially with lubrication. I've found that using the "vagina" with "the fist" technique, rather than "backhand," works well, also. And I've tried the method involving putting the penis between a mattress and the bed. It was very nice, providing a unique sensation, as my penis had more pressure on it. Overall, I suppose JackinWorld has been a very good influence; I feel better and more self-assured. I also tend to masturbate more often. I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you you're doing a great service for masturbators everywhere. Thanks!

I have discovered that many men in their 50s and 60s masturbate frequently. As a long-time frequent masturbator, I have tried many techniques that are mentioned here. Most of them are not really new to me.

I saw my dad reading this site and checked it out after he got off the computer. Now I check it out often. Before, I always wanked while sitting on the toilet or at night under my blankets, lying on my side. I have tried all of the ways I have read on your site. My favorite is to lie on my back, turn my left hand backwards so my palm is on the top and my fingers rub the tube underneath, I use my right hand on my testicles and anus. Thanks — I love it here and so do my friends.

I tried the water-faucet technique and the showerhead method. Although both were *very* satisfying, they opened up a whole new aspect of masturbation for me. I come from a very strict, religious family, so I would often masturbate when nobody was home. Or, when I'd have my bedroom door locked for a half-hour, my parents would yell for me to come out when I had only gotten halfway through a session. Now that I can do it in the shower, nobody suspects a thing! Thanks so much, JackinWorld!

I don't come here for male masturbation tips but for the female ones, for two reasons. First, I'm interested in how they do it; I'm a virgin and would like to hear about the many ways women find stimulation. Second, reading the tips turns me on, and that has a *major* influence on my masturbatory practices!
- age 26, Florida
I get disgusted yet curious by this site's content, but I am afraid to try anything (I mean about mutual masturbation and other types). I do masturbate by myself every once in a while, though, and I have not tried any different types besides the one I did the first time.
- age 14, South Dakota
It's not so much that *my* techniques have changed — after reading your site, my wife seems a little more interested in mutual masturbation than she ever was before. Oh, I still prefer the old-fashioned technique of lying on my back and using my full fist. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
- age 46, Texas
Now my friends and I know masturbating together doesn't mean we're gay — it's just a fun, experimental thing to do.
- age 13, North Carolina
There's one influence I can name: Reading other people's experiences and methods has given me a little more material with which to fantasize. I haven't tried any of the techniques mentioned in the weekly method box, but I have read them and thought, Wow, I'd never considered that one before.
- age 32, Washington
I had much less variation in my masturbation sessions before I started reading JackinWorld. It was just plain pumping. Nowadays I stroke the head of my penis much more and experiment more freely. I don't use any specific techniques, but I must say JackinWorld has made me a lot more curious when it comes to trying out new things.
- age 19, Norway
JackinWorld has probably made me masturbate more frequently. I now know millions of people my age do it, and it has made me less ashamed. Thanks!
- age 15, Washington (female)
Reading JackinWorld made masturbation easier for me. I had a problem with guilt. After reading JackinWorld I masturbate as much as I want to and feel just great. I learned a lot, and I've tried almost all of the techniques posted. I still masturbate with the normal fist, but I also enjoy the "Baggie & Mattress" technique. And I try to "create" variations to the techniques described in JackinExpert. JackinWorld has made masturbation a creative part of my life.

When my friend sleeps over at my house or I stay at his house, we always masturbate in front of each other and turn to JackinWorld to give us some techniques. Once we ended up using one of your mutual masturbation techniques. It was an awesome experience!
- age 16, New Jersey
I enjoy the usual practices enjoyed by circumcised men of average length. However, I have found it extremely interesting to masturbate with other guys. I am not gay; In fact, I have a girlfriend whom I love deeply. We have a great sex life. But the intuitions I have found on JackinWorld have been inspiring, to say the least. I am proud of my sexuality and I enjoy masturbation — a quality in my life to which JackinWorld offers insight and intuition.

While I appreciated long masturbation sessions before I found JackinWorld (but rarely achieved them!), the site really helped me to focus on how important it is to enjoy my time with myself and make it last. Still, I sometimes get just too worked up to want to hold out. I really like that frenzied feeling when you just *have* to ejaculate. A variant of the "One Side Only" technique (focusing on only one side of my penis and then suddenly switching to the other side) usually gives me that feeling of urgency without having to let it go. This technique is my favorite, because I can usually achieve reasonably long sessions and have excellent and satisfying orgasms. (Thanks to whoever came up with it!)

This site has helped me become more comfortable with masturbation and taught me a lot about my body. I can't find similar information anywhere else. I learned how to masturbate safely and not to feel guilty about it. (It also helped me out with my boyfriend!)

I connected to the Internet just last week and found JackinWorld fairly quickly. As I have been an avid masturbator for over 40 years, I found I had tried most of the techniques through personal experimentation. But, as I read through them, the urge to masturbate overtook me. So I opened my pants and manipulated my penis to all the techniques described that were possible while I was sitting in front of my computer. When I read the method of rolling your erect penis between your palms, I couldn't believe it. This was a technique I had never tried before. It felt so good — another new sensation! I knew that night this would be the way I'd ejaculate — slowly, though. I calmed myself, and while still stimulating my body, read through most of the other pages. It was an incredible 2 hours of stimulation. Finally, I went back to the techniques page and built up to the rolling technique. What an incredible orgasm! I ended, as I often do, ejaculating into my cupped left palm and swallowing it slowly, after milking out the last delicious drops. I've been eating my sperm for many years and feel that it is *not* unhealthy and wrong, *but good for me*.

Reading this site has caused me to masturbate more — a good thing. Also I have learned much about the male and female body.

I've been an avid masturbator since I can remember, but since I found JackinWorld I've been even more into it. This site has some great information and has enhanced my solo arousal state and orgasms. I have found that the "Thumb n Index" and the "Roll with It" methods are my favorites. "Thumb 'n' Index" works great for me because my penis is quite short and thin, and it's hard for me to get more than 2 or 3 fingers on it. "Roll with It" is fun when you start rolling it when it's soft. There is something about feeling my small, soft penis in my hands that I find erotic. Finally, I was happy that in the "JackinHow-To" section there's the three conventional grips, especially the three-finger grip for us guys who are small.

I haven't really changed the way I masturbate. I do take longer and enjoy it more, though. The thing that has helped me most is knowing this is a very natural feeling and that I am not the only one. I have masturbated regularly since I was 11 and always felt kind of bad about it — but not now.
- age 20, Georgia
It hasn't influenced the way I masturbate at all. But it proves that a lot of people do masturbate. I always get this urge to tell my friend at school about this site when he says masturbation is nasty and that only losers with no girlfriends do it.
- age 17, Canada
My masturbation frequency has increased. It's mainly due to my realizing I'm just like other guys (and gals) when it comes to masturbation — I'm now more comfortable with the subject and can talk about it more openly with my friends.
- age 25, Trinidad
The plethora of techniques this site offers is just great, and a few of the techniques have become my favorites. I love the "Banana Man" technique. That one does wonders for me, and I have always had really great orgasms when I have a spare banana lying around. Also, the "Navel Press" technique is a good general tip for all masturbators. It simply enhances the orgasm regardless of what technique you are using.
- age 17, Canada
Well, this is really a guy site, with guy techniques. (Yes, I've seen JillinWorld.) I guess I'm more likely to masturbate in front of the computer now than before I started reading this site. That's not really a good thing, because I've discovered Internet porn, which has negatively affected how I get aroused. I can't believe guys actually use all these weird techniques you have on your main page. Every guy I've been with uses the same up-and-down technique. That's what they like — who am I to argue?

Before I started reading this site, I used only my massager-vibrator to masturbate. When I learned the "Milker" method, I started using it more often than the vibrator. I discovered that using lotion and your own hands can sometimes be more pleasing than a vibrator. However, a vibrator is still good for quick, intense pleasure.
- age 15, Canada
I have learned to become more open about masturbation and only wish there had been something like this when I was a teen. I have tried more than a handful of the techniques I've read about and have found quite a few very pleasurable! In fact, they have been so pleasurable I don't know if I could name a favorite at this point. I do enjoy the "Backhand" position while lying on my stomach and thrusting into my lubricated hand. It mimics intercourse fairly well. But I really like to keep a good variety going during every session, take my time, and enjoy the explosiveness that comes with starting and stopping over a long period — say one to two hours' worth.

When I found this site I had only heard about masturbation at my summer camp but didn't really "get it" yet. I searched around, found JackinWorld, and was amazed. I've been visiting almost every week for about 2 years now and love to read all the techniques. My favorite is definitely the one where, when you get close to orgasm, you stop, then start up again a few minutes later. I ejaculate so much more and I've had my most explosive orgasms this way.
- age 14, Texas
My technique has changed somewhat; at least now I know masturbating with a man is pretty normal. I'll admit my favorite way to masturbate is with the "lube-filled condom." It feels awesome and cleans up easily.
- age 27, Florida
Reading JackinWorld made it easier for me to talk about the subject with my friends, and by now it's no big deal to talk about. I don't think I would have tried mutual masturbation if I had not read about it here. I check the site regularly for new techniques and try them at least once or twice.

With all the comments about men being able to self-suck, I have actually tried it. Although I am not limber enough to actually suck myself, I can get close enough to lick the head of my penis. I tried this once while I was ejaculating and have been hooked ever since. I thought I would be turned off by the taste of my semen, but quite to the contrary, I find it sexually exciting to masturbate into my own mouth.
- age 33, Texas
I started using lubricants in my sessions — something most youngsters in my country don't do when they masturbate. I picked up a couple of useful techniques from JackinWorld — for instance, my favorite, "Infinitely Deep Vagina." Also, I have been more open about masturbation. I now visit JackinWorld weekly.
- age 17, Singapore
In a word, I have been "liberated!" Not only has JackinWorld helped me be more open about masturbation, it has also opened me up to other sexual practices and an understanding of certain physical aspects of my sexuality: dealing with penis size and circumcision issues. I have tried most of the techniques described in the Expert section and now usually use several techniques when I masturbate. I have found some difficult to accomplish, probably because my penis tends more towards the short and thick end of the "normal" range. I am either too short to keep my penis in the position described or too thick for some of the tubes and bottle openings mentioned. They put too much pressure on my foreskin as it is pulled back when I try to enter these tight containers. Most techniques, though, have been interesting additions to my sessions, and all have been fun to at least try. I don't know if I have a new favorite — I enjoy and use many of them — but I still like to finish with the basic fist much of time. I still need to work on "patience" in this area of my life.
