Semantic issue re masturbation
[QUOTE=I still regard masturbation as a personal act]END QUOTE
BY DEFINITION, masturbation is SELF-generated genital stimulation to orgasm WITHOUT a partner. Get it? WITHOUT A PARTNER.
Stimulating the genitalia of a partner needs another name because that is NOT "masturbation". You do NOT "masturbate each other". Such are the limits of the English language!
If you and a partner stimulate your own genitals in front of each other, I call that 'voyeuristic masturbation'. Apparently this practice has its devotees. Okay. Whatever. But if I have my hands on a man that I desire, I want his hands on me, NOT mine, and I want my hands on him, NOT his. Watching a man 'play with himself' does nothing for me. Fortunately no one has ever asked me to observe this or to provide a similar observation for him.
This is not to criticize but to CLARIFY.
