There are a lot of different ways to stimulate and arouse yourself. Some people use a range of different objects, from sex toys to dry humping and rubbing the clitoris on other surfaces like blankets or pillows. Many people also engage their imaginations to come up with sexual fantasies to enjoy during masturbation, which can help them feel more intimate and connected to their body.
This article aims to provide a few suggestions for those who are trying to learn how to masterbate without porn. It is important to note that even if you are a Christian, it is perfectly fine for you to masturbate as long as you do so in moderation and avoid sex or any other sexual activity that involves another person. However, if you find that your masturbation is becoming more of an addiction than a form of self-pleasure and you are starting to lose focus on God or your relationship with others then it may be time to cut back.
It is also worth noting that some of the things people do to arouse themselves during masturbation can lead to sexual fantasies and sin. For example, if you start to lust over the bodies of other people (Type B masturbation), or if you use unsafe methods that could hurt you or someone else then it is important to seek advice from a professional. For those who are married, it is worth highlighting that this type of masturbation can be harmful to your relationship as you start to reinforce the false belief that your body is for yourself alone rather than for the Lord and your wife (see 1 Corinthians 6:12). If this sounds like you, then please talk to your pastor or a counsellor for support.
