3. Women’s masturbation is sex-positive.
Men watch women masturbating as an affirmation that women are sexual beings, with desires just like any man. In a way, when a man says he wants to watch you masturbate, it’s the most sex-positive thing he can do. Rather than turning off the lights and getting down and dirty together, he’s watching you explore your own desires in the most intimate way. It doesn’t get more sex affirming than that.
4. Women masturbating is a serious visual turn-on.
Men are aural and visual creatures. That makes watching women masturbate the ultimate in foreplay. Think about it! What’s better than porn? A real life woman, naked, in front of them, moaning her way to orgasm. The sounds you make when you are masturbating and the sight of you giving yourself pleasure are the ultimate turn-on for a man.
5. Watching a woman masturbate is very intimate.
Masturbation is a form of communication, when you let a man watch you do it. When you let men watch you masturbate you’re saying, “This is what I like, and I’m trusting you with this information, and I’m making myself vulnerable enough to share it with you.” Communication is essential in building an intimate relationship, and while talking might not always be easy for your man, acts like watching you masturbate he can do, and that will deepen your intimacy.
