I am a divorced woman of 42 years. I do not wish to chance intercourse with a man because of the good chance of contracting an STD. Therefore, I have resorted to only masturbating for relief. I tried lot of masturbation methods until I heard about this one unusual method. I straddle the edge of my mattress and grind my vagina along the edge until I orgasm. I always wear underwear while doing this for fear of staining the sheet. I can do this for quite a long time and have many intense orgasms. I think I have developed an addiction to this method. I think I have developed TMS or Traumatic Masturbation Syndrome.
Do you think I can permanently injure myself and can I ever enjoy normal intercourse with a man?
I would use caution when masturbating in the fashion. The friction caused by the mattress in combination with your underwear can cause damage to the structures in and around your vagina. I would be worried about stretching and tearing of the labia and clitoris.
Because you have been masturbating in this way for some time, there may be scar tissue around the area of your vaginal opening. Whether this will cause pain during sexual intercourse is uncertain. If you can insert two clean fingers into your vagina, you will most likely be able to continue on to sex.
It might just be safer to get a vibrator. My opinion is that this form of masturbation, though interesting, could cause permanent damage.
Well is what you are doing painful or causing scaring? I don't really see what the problem is. There are many ways to masturbate, and rubbing something against you clit is one way to masturbate. I've never heard of this being harmful in any way, but I suppose if you used enough pressure you could harm yourself. I also don't really understand why this would make sex painful, but maybe I'm missing something. I'd say to use your common sense. If you're really worried, see your gynocologist.
By the way, I also want to say that, though fear of STDs is legitimate, it is not impossible to find a clean man these days. Don't distance yourself from the possibility of a relationship, physical or emotional, for this reason. There are ways to prevent STD transmission, and it is totally fair to ask a potential partner about their sexual history. You can even go to a clinic and get tested together if you want to be sure.
I "love it" :rolleyes: when dudes give females advice on how to masturbate and what could happen with their bodies!

Also, it could set the mattress on fire. It turns out that this is, in fact, the leading cause of house fires throughout the US and Europe. The only reason it doesn't appear in any of the statistics is because people are so embarassed they just say, "Uh ... it was, um, something, uh ... electrical? Does that sound believable?" and the fire department writes that down. Just talk to a fireman sometime and mention "electrical fires," and now you'll know why he starts snickering.
I don't think there is really anything wrong with this form of masterbation. What you really seem to like is clitoral orgasms. Most woman do.
Don't give up on a Man though, still some good ones left.
