Masturbation is one among the many issues people refrain from explicitly talking about. People all around the world resort to self-pleasure but seldom reveal their ways. Well, it is a fantasy that people fulfil without the world knowing about it. But a recent study conducted, revealed that 100 Germans die every year while resorting to bizarre ways to masturbate. There are multiple side effects of masturbation that can lead to death.

While the public discussion is encouraged and is still evolving, many are still insecure about revealing their techniques when practicing the art of self-love. While there is no right or wrong way to explore self-pleasure, we have listed down some freaky and unusual ways people practice masturbation.

Bizarre Techniques

Autoerotic asphyxiation: In the study conducted cited one of the cases where a man was found suffocated in the cellar of his home. He was tied to chains around his body and neck. This technique involves temporary cutting off the flow of oxygen to the brain, usually using a prop like a rope or chain. When this happens, you get a high, which intensifies the orgasm.

Oral inclination: We all know that men and women, both, feel ecstatic when involved in oral pleasure. Little did we know, that satisfying themselves orally was even remotely possible? They surely are as flexible as a pretzel. Also referred to as autocunnilingus (for women) and autofellatio (for men) is a whimsical way of sucking yourself off. As you might imagine, it must be an arduous task. People around the world are making the impossible, possible. We suggest you start taking some yoga classes.

Humping technique: If you own a dog, you would have seen him humping to a pillow or his soft toy. That is exactly what people are doing too. It is the same thing as regular humping, but solely for personal pleasure. One of the many ways to do it is by using a large stuffed animal. One of the practitioners of this technique revealed that she straddled the teddy bear and rubbed her clitoris. This is a sure way to fire up the sensation in both men and women.

People can get really creative to achieve that self-stimulation. Too shy to buy a vibrator online or even otherwise? Well, if you have not tried it already, your phone can do wonders. Put it on the vibrate mode, and hold it by your vagina and hump away. Hit those sweet spots by adjusting the volume button time and again, for as long as you wish.

For men, you can fill a condom with water while you’re in the shower and put it on. Hold on to the condom and start humping it. We don’t know how well does it work, at least you will not kill yourself with this technique.

Ever heard of foot fetish? Yeah, it’s a thing and requires tremendous flexibility. For many, feet are a source of sexual stimulation. Some foot fetishists are capable of pleasing themselves. Men can do it when in a sitting position, while women can do it either kneeling or sitting by bending their legs inward.

Indulging in some self-love is all you need sometimes. Do not shy away if you do, just don’t kill yourselves. After all, masturbation can be enjoyable and a healthy way of self-exploration.
