- age 25, Canada
When girls swear, I get aroused. Perhaps I feel that they can be dirty.
- age 14, Missouri
I am an attendant on a toll road, and some of the people I see make me want to masturbate. Either the attraction or the stress factor makes me want to close my lane and go masturbate.
- age 22, Indiana
My roommate and I like to wrestle (in a non-sexual way). I often like to masturbate after that.
- age 19, Mississippi
Being on the bus! Not short bus journeys really, but long ones. I think it's fairly self-explanatory. Roads here are quite bumpy, and the bus moves up and down, up and down — it starts as *that* sensation. By the time I get to the courtesy stop (about an hour after departure), I'm being driven mad and have to run to the bathroom to take care of myself! That was before I told my boyfriend about this — now, when we travel home from university together, we sneak into the bathroom together, and I let him finish masturbating me. It's done wonders for our sex life!
- age 21, Ireland (female)
When the weather is a certain way, I feel like just ripping all of my clothes off and masturbating. It has to be windy and cool (but not cold), like before a winter storm, and during the night. This is a really erotic moment for me, as well as for my girlfriend.
- age 17, California
I get an erection just from shaving and need to masturbate afterwards — weird, eh?
- age 18, United Kingdom
I sometimes find class boring. I can't help but think of an activity that I enjoy. When I get home from school, I get the lube and masturbate.
- age 16, Florida
When I sunbathe, I have found that the sun on my genitals arouses me. Years ago, when I first started tanning, I pushed it aside. But at my "relaxed" age, I seem to go with the flow. My imagination takes over and I close my eyes and visualize that I am being tended by my lover. As a result, I always seem to have a very nice tan every summer!
- age 35, Canada (female)
Riding my bike. The feeling of my genitals being cooped up makes me want to ejaculate.
- age 17, Virginia
The sound and feeling of a full-power take-off in a commercial jet at night. Of course, I never actually do it during a flight, but it sure could be easy to start. Something about the power and whine of jet engines at full thrust does something to my innards.
- age 64, Alabama
I like to masturbate after I work out or just anticipating working out. I also like to masturbate when I put on or take off my underwear. Sometimes I feel the need to masturbate when I think about underwear. This is a fetish, right?
- age 14, North Carolina
I'm a guy, and I'm not gay. But sometimes when I'm wrestling or playing football with smaller, younger friends, I feel like masturbating — especially if they start to talk about masturbation and their penises. Or, if I just see them in their underwear when I sleep over at their houses.
- age 17, New York
First, watching women dance. During the summer, when they're wearing bikinis and dancing to the beat, their chests move suggestively and I admire their looks and how flexible they are. Second is watching a sweaty workout by a girl. The thought of having sex with someone who has a firm body is arousing!
- age 20, New York
Debating turns me on more than anything — I'm on the debate team at my school, and before every round I have to go masturbate if I want to win. It really clears my mind. I'm top in the district and everyone is always asking me what my secret is. If they only knew!
- age 16, Texas (female)
Being under a lot of pressure at work often causes me to stop what I'm doing and masturbate. I work alone in an office so I can usually play with myself whenever I want. After a climax I can concentrate on my work again.
- age 56, New York
Basketball — when I'm playing and look over at the cheerleaders, or see a hot girl in the crowd, and I'm all sweaty and tired, I really want to masturbate right there.
- age 14, Maine
Mowing the lawn.
- age 24, New York
Chocolate-covered cherries excite me. Perhaps it's the idea of what the word "cherry" can mean. When I eat one, it just really turns me on. I really get into it and "pop" the cherry with my tongue, which is really hard, by the way. Then I suck the juice out and eat the cherry. Chocolate covered cherries...mmmm.
- age 15, Pennsylvania
A hard physical workout in the gym and rowing make me horny. I need to masturbate to release sexual tension.
- age 25, California
Just walking around, I look at women and always look down at their feet in sandals and open-toe shoes. Just looking makes me want to masturbate. I love women's feet!
- age 17, Tennessee
Watching guys comb their hair. Watching guys in a public place who have medium to long hair and who are well groomed. Watching male swimmers with muscular bodies. Watching Val Kilmer, Tom Cruise, or Brian Kerwin in a movie.
- age 44, New York
After school when I come home I always feel like masturbating. I love to do it, and knowing I have to wait until then makes it real hot. Sometimes I can't wait and have to go into a bathroom to take care of myself.
- age 17, Montana
After a good workout at the gym or a long bike ride, the first thing I want to do is masturbate. Being all hot and sweaty just makes me hornier than you could ever imagine.
- age 24, Oregon
Every time I see a pretty girl on the train, I think about what she would look like naked. I hope that she might masturbate me. Thoughts like this often make me go home and masturbate. Of course, I also think about the girl I saw on the train!
- age 17, New York
Eating lunch.
- age 28, Maryland (female)
Any sport makes me want to masturbate, especially basketball. Running around at practice everyone is so sweaty — and then afterward in the showers we are all so horny. I have to go home and masturbate.
- age 15, Canada
Working out always makes me want to masturbate. Some of my best sessions happen right after I come home from the gym.
- age 26, Ohio
Swimming makes me want to masturbate, even though I never like to masturbate while I'm in the shower or bath. I guess it's the feeling of water against my penis.
- age 15, New York.
Since the age of 3 I was groomed to be a classical musician. I am now a reasonably successful conductor, composer, and pianist. Directing hours of energy every day into practice, theoretical study and group rehearsals — these activities have, since puberty, always left me in need of sexual release. Because one must direct all energy into an artistic performance, and this kind of intense workout also creates energy, I find masturbation to be almost necessary as a "balance" after any intense rehearsal or performance. When I work in the musical theater (especially), the combination of concentrated artistic expression and working with attractive singers and actors creates the need for a sexual outlet which is not directly related to a "sexual" situation. Furthermore, it leads to an intense orgasm almost devoid of sexual fantasy — a true orgasm of release.
- age 29, Texas
For some very odd reason, I get really turned on if I am playing video games late at night, maybe because it's so relaxing and fun. I may be the only one who gets turned on by that, but I can't help it!
- age 15, New Hampshire (female)
Something about just being outdoors makes me want to masturbate. I have this strange desire to masturbate outside, or in public places.

Listening to music always makes me want to masturbate. I like to move my hand to the rhythm of the music.
- age 15, California
Cycling can make me really want to masturbate. I wear the whole jersey outfit, including the tight Lycra shorts. Whether it's the shorts pressing against my crotch, or the seat pushing on it from below, sometimes I feel the need to masturbate. Occasionally the urge has been so strong that I have stopped, gone into the woods or wherever, and masturbated.
- age 16, Minnesota
Doing the laundry — I really love the spin cycle!
- age 27, Missouri (female)
I enjoy masturbating after a test. Also, I like to masturbate after a funeral or wedding.
- age 13, Canada
When I'm getting my hair cut, the idea of the stylist combing and cutting my hair really turns me on. The more time they spend styling and fixing it, the stronger the urge is.
- age 18, Oregon
I am always aroused when I camp with my Boy Scout troop. I end up masturbating in the tent or elsewhere sometime during the campout. It can be during a truth-or-dare game with my masturbation buddy in my troop or by myself. Maybe it's all the outdoors and fresh air. Or, maybe just because there aren't many girls at scout camps.
- age 16, Wisconsin
Laboratory research. I've no idea why, but somehow I find high-energy physics bizarrely stimulating. At the other end of the spectrum, really boring classes tend to make me "desirous" as well, probably mostly because they're boring and I have nothing else to think of.
- age 19, Pennsylvania
When I put on my supporter and cup I almost always get an erection.
- age 13, New York

- age 21, Canada
One thing that makes me want to masturbate is the sound of a siren. I grew up next to a police station and, well, those sounds made me so horny. So now, whenever I hear a siren, I go spastic.
- age 18, Ohio
When I get into a fight with my dad or something depressing happens, I always masturbate. It makes me feel better and takes my mind off things.
- age 15, Massachusetts
Studying or doing homework. After I have been working for a while, I start having erection after erection. The urge to masturbate is incredible. When I was in high school, study hall was my last period. I used to run home so I could relieve the tension. Now, I'm at a university and it's not so easy to find the privacy. My roommate tells me he has the same reaction and sometimes when we study together, he just gets up, goes into the bathroom, and stays in there for a while.
- age 19, California
Taking a nap almost always does it for me. When I take a nap it's because I haven't a care in the world. By the time I wake up I'm usually quite hard and need to masturbate. This relaxes me even further.
- age 24, Washington
Every time I get on the computer for whatever reason, I want to masturbate.
- age 15, Missouri
I always get a strong erection and need to masturbate when taking long car rides. I'm not sure if it's the boredom, the rhythmic sound of the road going by, or just my imagination running wild, but I usually have to stop off in a public restroom at least once on a long trip to take care of it.
- age 23, Ohio
Exercising makes me tired but also gets me rock hard. I love lifting weights, and when I see my penis erect in my shorts, I just have to go masturbate.
- age 17, Canada
A really good weight workout can bring on the desire to "top it off" with a session of stroking. A good run does the same, or a day of outdoor yard work. Perhaps the most intriguing one, however, is swimming and lying in the sun. The warmth of the sun on the penis can bring about strong desires to enjoy myself.
- age 48, Tennessee
Whenever I wrestle with my friends I get horny.
- age 16, Idaho
Of all the activities in my daily life, showering makes me want to masturbate more than anything. The hot steamy water, the fact that I am naked, and washing everything combine to make me ready for my next session.
- age 20, Oklahoma
Sometimes I masturbate because I know I will feel better. I may have had a bad day, or be having my period. It helps with the cramps and such.
- age 17, North Dakota (female)
Skateboarding. I think it is the adrenaline rush — the heartbeat getting faster and the respiration increasing.
- age 24, Pennsylvania
Whenever I see spiked, blonde highlighted hair!
- age 17, California
Often when I'm fully and passionately involved in a project, or a hobby such as woodworking, or yard work — anything physical like that gives me "the urge." This has happened since I was in my teens. I think it may have something to do with the exercise, increased blood flow from the physical activity, and the joy the activity gives me.
- age 40, Ohio
I once saw a teen girl at the lake squatting and peeing. What a turn-on! I never thought of it before, but I guess it's the forbidden nature of a thing that makes it so exciting to see. I got an erection and disappeared into the bushes!
- age 19, California
Frustration has always given me an erection. Masturbation is the release valve.
- age 36, Utah
Sports have always been very arousing to me, especially with other guys. I'm heterosexual, but when I play football and I tackle someone I can feel my penis rising. There have been a couple of times that I've been afraid it was going to show through my pants. Flesh pressed against flesh in any way, with either gender, is a real turn-on.
- age 17, California
Sometimes when I am doing the dishes , my penis rubs against the counter. I have to go and relieve myself immediately after.
- age 21, Panama
Often when I'm stressed out at school, I look for a way to sneak off to the restroom for release. I always use the one on the 3rd floor or in the library since hardly anyone goes into them. Sometimes just odd things arouse me — a movie, or going for a jog, or just plain boredom.
- age 18, Argentina
I almost always get an erection when I have a bowel movement. Sometimes it turns me on to nearly the point of orgasm. I give in to "the urge" and masturbate at least once a week in this situation, usually with very intense orgasms.
- age 31, Ohio
I always want to masturbate after a really hard hockey game. Getting all worked up during the game, and getting all banged up on the ice, really get me hot for orgasm. I can't wait to get out of the changing room and to a place where I can masturbate. I'd rather do that after a game than have intercourse with my wife.
- age 32, California
I get raging erections whenever I get my hair cut — specifically, clipper cut. It turns me on so much I almost want to ejaculate under the cape. My flattop is a great source for inspiration and masturbation!
- age 19, Michigan
As a nudist walking nude and getting in touch with nature, and then myself. While walking is the primary activity at times any nude activity will do it for me.
- age 38, New Jersey
At night when I'm walking by myself and the sun has just set, I get really horny. So I go to a school yard, stand as high as I can (the top of the school's stairs), and masturbate. I've done this twice.
- age 16, Canada
Giving my girlfriend a foot rub...I have a mild foot fetish.
- age 21, Texas
Taking a hot bath or a Jacuzzi always seems to make me want to masturbate. I guess the warm water gets the juices flowing, and it seems an innocent dip in the spa leads to a nice session, even if I had no intention of doing it when I got in.
- age 17, California
I usually get an urge to masturbate around my roommate. He can just be sitting across the room or gone to take a shower, it doesn't matter. I like to picture him taking a shower or sitting naked across the room. Sometimes I like to play with his underwear and smell it while I masturbate (like I can smell him there). I think it is because I have always wanted to masturbate with him but never have.
- age 18, Georgia
A fight with my spouse has sometimes made me want to masturbate. Maybe it's the feeling of unfairly being denied comfort and security, and deeply wanting something better than I just got. Even long-term committed people do things that get in each other's way, sometimes a lot. Occasionally when this happens, I feel an intense need to masturbate. Then I focus much less on outside fantasies (dream women, old girlfriends) than on the sensations in my own genitals, and in my own hands as I do the stroking. Maybe it's a return to adolescent feelings of comfort and security.
- age 49, Oregon
Sometimes I look outside and see the leaves and trees and the sunset and I get turned on. I masturbate when I look at nature like that.
- age 15, Georgia
Seeing a guy (usually under 20 years old) take off his shoes when he has white socks on excites me. I really don't think I'm gay. I consider myself bisexual because I have a girlfriend. I can't explain it — a guy's feet just turn me on.
- age 17, Michigan
I am really into music. Some songs turn me on a lot, especially songs like "Sanctified" by Nine Inch Nails. Emotional voices are so amazing.
- age 15, Kentucky (female)
Massage makes me want to masturbate, as does just hanging around the house nude — nothing too sexual there, but it makes me feel the need at times.
- age 26, California
For some reason I get an incredible urge to masturbate when I listen to heavy metal or any other really heavy music like Korn or Metallica (before 1996).
- age 15, Canada
Sleeping — quite often when I wake up in the morning, I have an overwhelming urge to masturbate. It's not associated with sexy dreams. Oh well, I suppose there could be worse feelings to have first thing in the morning!
- age 40, California
I usually masturbate when I get a bath once a week. I do it then to let out all of my stress and tension from the previous week.
- age 15, Colorado (female)
I like to masturbate right after I have finished working out. I like to think of it as a quick reward for all my work. I also like to watch myself in the mirror sometimes because I always look really flexed after I work out. It's really sexy.
- age 17, Texas
When I'm writing an important test or exam, I sometimes get stressed out and just want to bust out of the school and go somewhere private to relieve it!
- age 16, Canada
Mustering sheep.
- age 22, New Zealand
When I ride one of the Waverunners at our cottage, the vibrations from the engine always give me an erection so afterwards I go to my bedroom to masturbate while everyone is still on the dock.
- age 15, Michigan
The sight of a pretty young lady smoking a cigarette really does it for me. I also love the taste of her lipstick on my filter after she sneaks a drag.
- age 20, California
Boxing! I love the smell of the gloves and the feel of the leather against my stomach.
- age 17, Massachusetts
A back massage, or wrestling — maybe even sitting cross-legged and thinking about something sexual.
- age 16, California (female)
Riding in moving vehicles. I'm out of school now, but I remember during high school I would often get raging erections on the school bus in the morning. I'd usually give it a good rub through my pants, but I never got up the nerve to actually do it on the bus. What a way to start out a morning that would be, though!
- age 17, Illinois
Reading really makes me want to masturbate — and not just sexually explicit material. Usually when I am really into a good novel I will rest my hand on my pants, and, well...after a while it's nice to take a break.
- age 20, Arizona
Whenever I play sports like basketball with the other guys it always makes me want to masturbate. Something about being around other sweaty guys.
- age 16, Virginia
When I am doing nothing.
- age 15, Texas
"Baywatch" — hot men.
- age 26, Japan (female)
Walking, talking, looking, thinking, running, climbing, showering, swimming, rafting, playing...jeesh, just about anything can make me want to do it. Anything that moves it, rubs it, or touches it can give me an erection. Think I like to do it a lot? You're right!
- age 15, California
