    Should I Masturbate?

    Hi, i have doubts on if i should masturbate or not . I sometimes have sexual thoughts about having sex with someone, but at my age i still want to keep my virginity. The thing is I've never ever put something in my vagina before, and i also feel sometimes i want to but i feel awkward.....so i don't know what to do and when and where?? (also im kinda scared it will hurt or maybe ill do i wrong or something)

    Female masturbation is often accomplished by rubbing the clitoris, the clitoral hood and/or areas near the clitoris. Putting anything in the vagina is usually not needed. BTW: how old are you?

      I think you should in order to learn how your body feels, what it does, this will help you very much latter on to avoid an unfullfilling sex life; to be comfortable with your own body and its sensations. Just my little opinion.
      But as jns points out, it is really not necessary at all to place anything inside your vagina, female masturbation in its most basic and efficient form is the rubbing of the clitoral hood.
