There’s no denying that a good roll in the hay with someone you love (or just love to get naked with) has some serious perks. But honestly, self-pleasure can be just as fabulous as actual intercourse—if not more so. Not convinced? Here’s why solo sex rocks.
1. Partner’s tired, gassy, bloated, or otherwise not in the mood or non-existent? That’s OK! You can masturbate whenever you want.
2.You’re free to experiment with fun (sometimes unusual) sex toys—without worrying about being judged or hurting anyone’s feelings.
3. The lack of grunting noises coming from your bedroom late at night means fewer awkward encounters with your roommate or neighbors later. Score!
4. Who knows what gets you off better than you? That would be no one.
5. You don’t need to stock up on condoms—or worry about birth control.
6. No “walk of shame” for you in the morning!
7. Sometimes, sex can drag on for what feels like forever. Self-pleasure is always exactly as short or long as you want it to be.
8. There’s no pressure to help someone else climax—so go ahead and be selfish.
9. You’ll never wake up regretting what happened last night.
10. No one will care if your nether regions haven’t been trimmed in weeks. Yes, pubic hair is apparently making a comeback, but seriously, your vibrator couldn’t care less how you wear your bush.
11. Feel like eating chocolate while watching The Notebook after you orgasm? Or do you prefer falling asleep immediately? It’s all good—there’s nobody around to tell you not to.
