My first time was about 12. I'd only recently discovered that the 'heavy' feeling in my pants that I had all day long was just a constant 'chubby'. The boys wanted out to play. It was a bit tricky for the first few months while I figured out how to take care of the 'issue' without alerting my brother, who shared the room with me. Back then, such things were never spoken of.

It's interesting reading the remarks of the ladies, though. I saw something about 18 years ago that I didn't expect to see. I was over at a friends' place. We used to have weekend barbecues. There was some drinking involved (natch) and hence sleep-overs tended to be the order of the day (to avoid unfortunate encounters with the local PD). We'd pull things like putting a person's socks over his nose while he was napped out on the living room floor. Just to see the reaction, of course.

Some of these friends had children. It was Sunday, I was watching the tube and recovering from a hang-over, and my friend's five-year-old daughter came down the stairs. She had a kind of dreamy look, and then she laid down on her stomach on the living room floor with both hands under her, and started, for lack of a better term, 'wriggling'. I didn't pay much attention to it. Kids do all kinds of weird things, and BotsMaster was on.

When she got up, though, I looked at her face. A five-year-old girl whose just had an orgasm looks pretty much the same as a 35-year-old woman whose just had an orgasm. Vaguely surprised, happy, and highly distracted. I rather suspect that women are capable of orgasm pretty much from birth.

This tends to be borne out by "The Hite Report", by Shere Hite. Some accounts in that book place the age of first masturbation as young as six in females. Ladies, you've been missing out if you started at 12.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I was thinking about my first orgasm today and just felt like sharing.

My first memory of actual self service was, I think, when I was 4, but I'm pretty sure it's something I've been up to probably since the womb. I was 13 when I had my first orgasm and it was so fun, because I was pretty naive at the time and didn't know what an orgasm really was, or if it was something that was a possibility.

There was a boy in my class who had a crush on me and would walk me home from school every day, and was just always very sweet. I was doing my usual masturbation routine as I was drifting off to sleep one night, and I thought, "If George were here right now, I'd totally let him bang me!" The fantasy of his fingers would not leave my mind, and before I knew it, my toes were curled, my back was arched and my breath was coming in short, lovely little gasps, Mmmmmm... Needless to say I still really haven't left my bedroom.

Self love is such a delicious gift! And it just keeps on giving, eh? Fun and Sexy, Sexy Fun!

Hm, I was a fairly late bloomer, too: I touched myself very early on (like most people, I think), but I never really knew what masturbation was about until I was about 14, *after* I started being obsessed with sex. I had such a sheltered and un-informed childhood.

One of my friends had stolen his dad's stash of Playboys, and so we absconded to a little timber behind his house to look at them. I was enjoying the lovely feeling of a hard-on when I realized that my friend was masturbating furiously next to me, and everything made sense all of a sudden.

Now I'm 30 years old, and I'm still at it.

I'd have to say the water jets in my cousin's backyard hot tub were pretty much the agent of my undoing.
At the age of about 9 or so, I discovered that pressing myself up against those high-powered underwater jets of warm water felt REALLY good. Now that I think about it, I went from 'zero to sixty' in about 8 seconds!

Reading Tom Strong's post about the Playboys reminds me of something - about a year ago I remembered that the first naked woman I ever saw (in a sexual way) was the centerfold from my dad's one and only Playboy, which I used to 'borrow' after discovering it at the back of his sock drawer. However, I couldn't recall what she looked like but remembered the date of the issue - so I looked it up online, and got my first glimpse of her in over 27 years. Lo and behold: she embodied so much of what I find physically attractive in women today! (blonde hair, a certain smile, and so on). It was really enlightening for me, as it pinpointed a moment in my life that really defined part of my sexuality!

Hm, I can't say I'm particularly tempted to look back at the original Playboys that got my attention when I was a young teen. I haven't even looked at a Playboy in over 10 years. But F&EFan, you've made me think about nostalgia and porn, which could be a topic in its own right (if someone hasn't already started that thread): what pictures and/or stories got everyone's attention back when you were young and/or impressionable?

Tom I don't think such a thread exists - go for it!

'Tis done. I just had a massage, so I'm feeling pretty relaxed, so I think I need to relive some memories now....

Here's a laugh for nostalgia sake. I have part of a set of books from the Purity and Truth Self and Sex Series. "What a Young Man Ought to Know" by Sylvanus Stall, D.D. copywrite 1904 and "What a Young Woman Ought to Know" by Mary Wood-Allen, M.D., copywrite 1905. Other books in the series are "What a Young Husband Ought to Know", "What a Young Wife Ought to Know", "What a Man of 45 Ought to Know" and "What a Woman of 45 Ought to Know."

An excerpt from "What a Young Woman Ought to Know": "The reading of sensational love stories is most detrimental. The descriptions of passionate love scenes arouse in the reader a thrill through her own sexual organism that tends to increase its activity and derange its normal state. ... This stimulation sometimes leads to the formation of an evil habit, known as self-abuse, created by mechanical means, or even by thought. The results of self-abuse are most disastrous. It destroys mental power and memory, it blotches the complexion, dulls the eye, takes away the strength, and may even cause insanity."

Bring on the insanity!!! I'm glad that I'm not living in the early 1900's!!! I wonder what they would think of the Monkey Rocker?

Thank goodness you can masturbate! I don't know how I could survive if you didn't have the worm to take the edge off!

When visiting the Cinema with my mate,I would be about 15,he would rub my leg, I would release his Penis from his trousers,he would take mine out and you know the rest.

hehe Short and Sexy.

although was'nt it at the turn of the 19th to 20th centuries, that doctors often masturbated their female patients to orgasm in order to treat a malady known as "Hysteria"?

"dont spill thy seed johnny, or there shall be heavy penance to pay" .... indeed reverend. indeed.

lol

cheers

Nigel, my memory of something I read is that the medics used a 'massager' (i.e. a dildo) to bring their female patients to orgasm.
