Why You Should Use a Male Masturbator

When one thinks of sex toys, it’s often women’s sex toys that come to mind. But when it comes to male sex toys, it may just be a topic of humour. For example, one may think of a sleazy looking male masturbator that mimics the female anatomy (“realistic masturbators”) or a blow up doll.

But not all male masturbators are like that. In fact, there are some super classy and tech-forward male masturbators available, made with only pleasure in mind.

So, to get started: you’re unfamiliar, let’s answer the question:

What is a male masturbator? It’s a sex toy made of a sleeve designed to enhance solo pleasure through texture, suction strokers, vibration, or stroking motion. And they’re becoming super popular because they now offer more modern designs that give off realistic sensations, adjustable features, and performance benefits.

So today, we’re going to take a look at male masturbators, how they improve pleasure, sexual health, and stamina, and why every man should consider using one.

Male masturbators have been designed for enhanced stimulation. 

So, as we mentioned, it comes with a sleeve. This penis sleeve can have different textures, suction, and vibrational settings in order to intensify pleasure. 

It’s been created in such a way that it simulates a realistic feel, giving off the sensation of enjoying penetration, receiving oral sex, or simply basking in manual stimulation, depending on which kind of male masturbator you’re using, for an even better solo experience.

There are two kinds of male masturbators:

• Manual male masturbator: this kind of male sex toy allows you to have custom control over the speed and pressure.
• Automatic male masturbator: this kind of male sex toy offers hands-free pleasure with vibration, suction, or rotation modes.

The Top Benefits of Using a Male Masturbator

So, why should you use a male masturbator? Here are five of the top benefits of using a male masturbator:

1. Using a male masturbator enhances sexual pleasure

Using this male sex toy provides intense stimulation compared to using only the hands. In fact, it mimics the real sensation, offering a more immersive experience. This is because of its different textures, tightness levels, and suction stroker settings, which allows you to simulate different types of touch or penetration, making masturbation even more satisfying. 

In other words, a male masturbator heightens arousal and offers a variety of pleasure during solo play.

2. Using a male masturbator improves stamina & performance

When you use a male masturbator, you have control over the modes. In this way, you can delay your orgasms, improve your endurance, and practice edging techniques (when you come close to orgasm then stop all sources of pleasure). 

This could prove entirely helpful during partnered play because you could learn how to have a better handle on ejaculatory control and stamina, have a better performance, and last longer in bed.

3. Using a male masturbator can boost sensitivity and blood flow

Over time, a male masturbator can increase nerve stimulation and arousal response, which can lead to better erectile functioning by encouraging a healthier blood flow to the penis. You could also experiment with different sensations such as vibrations and textures in such a way that you can heighten your sensations, resulting in bigger orgasms. 

This is a great thing for those who are living with performance anxiety or decreased sensitivity, or those who want to enhance penile sensitivity or circulation.

4. Using a male masturbator supports sexual wellness and stress relief

Did you know that when you engage in sexual activity—be it solo or with a partner, especially to the point of orgasm, a slew of feel-good hormones are released? Hormones such as endorphins, oxytocin, dopamine and more are increased, making us feel happier, more relaxed and more sexually satisfied. But also, cortisol is said to decrease—the stress hormone. 

This means that using a male masturbator can help you destress and unwind, find a healthier relationship with solo pleasure, enjoy an improved mood, and aid in better sleep.

5. Using a male masturbator can be great for partnered play & long-distance relationships 

Some (modern) male masturbators have app capabilities which means that you could either give control to a partner in-person or from afar. This is great news for couples who want to incorporate this type of play together, such as during foreplay, and/or for couples who want to explore new sensations and interactive pleasure together. 

In this way, an app-controlled male masturbator can be a fun tool for mutual exploration and perhaps even stamina training before intercourse.

How to Choose the Right Male Masturbator for You

Not at male masturbators are the same. So instead of choosing one at random, here’s a nifty little guide to make sure you get the best bang for your buck!

For beginners: aim for a manual male masturbator that’s soft or a classic penis sleeve.

For intense sensations: you may love a suction-based or a vibrating male masturbator.

For stamina training: a male masturbator with an adjustable penis sleeve and different tightness levels will be the best idea.

For a realistic feel: go for a male masturbator that’s made of flesh-like material with warming options.

For hands-free play: try an automatic or interactive app-controlled stroker.

How to Use a Male Masturbator Safely & Effectively

Once you’ve gotten yourself a male masturbator, the next step is learning how to use it safely and effectively. Here are five easy steps on how to use a male masturbator:

Step One: Apply Lubricant

Apply a generous amount of water-based lube to both your penis and the inside of the masturbator for a smooth and friction-free movement.

Step Two: Aroused & Erect

Make sure that you’re feeling aroused and erect before you slide yourself into the masturbator. If it’s your first time, go slow to figure out if the texture and tightness is comfortable for you. It should feel comfortable and snug.

Step Three: Experiment with Speed & Grip

Now you can try different stroke motions, pressure levels, and angles for maximum pleasure.

Step Four: Test Different Sensation Settings

If you’re using a vibrating or suction stroker, you can explore various intensity levels.

Step Five: Clean it Thoroughly

Once you’re done using your male masturbator, you want to make sure it’s properly clean and stored correctly. To do this you can rinse it with warm water or use a toy cleaner after each use. Then, you can let it air dry completely to prevent any bacteria buildup.

Common Myths About Male Masturbators

For good measure, and in case you may have some beliefs about male masturbators that may be leaving you apprehensive, we’re going to bust some of the common myths about these sex toys for men.

“Using a masturbator will make real sex less enjoyable.”

False. Many men have reported having better stamina and confidence in bed after using this male sex toy.

 “They’re only for people with erectile dysfunction.”

False. Male masturbators can enhance pleasure for all users, regardless of performance issues.

“Masturbators are difficult to clean.”

False. Many models have removable penis sleeves or self-cleaning features for easy maintenance.

Alternative Tools to Enhance Solo Play

Now that you’ve been introduced to the wonderful world of male masturbators, perhaps you’d be interested to learn about some other male sex toys that are just as satisfying when it comes to enhancing your play time?

Cock Rings

A cock ring is a ring worn around the penis and it restricts blood flow to produce stronger erections. There are all kinds of cock rings available today. There are some that vibrate for extra stimulation for both partners, and some that have extra tidbits such as a perineum massager or an added piece to stimulate a partner’s clitoris during intercourse. A cock ring can be used with a masturbator to maintain a stronger erection. 

Vacuum Pumps

A vacuum pump is a device that helps your penis get hard and stay hard. It does this by improving blood flow to the penis, which increases sensitivity over time.

Prostate Massagers

A prostate massager is a sex toy that stimulates the prostate in penis owners. The prostate can be found in front of the rectum and underneath the bladder and, when stimulated, can create firework-inducing orgasms. This kind of sex toy can be used in conjunction with a male masturbator, adding in extra stimulation for more intense orgasms.

To recap, it’s evident that male masturbators aren’t sleazy sex toys but rather, a great way for penis owners to take pleasure into their own hands. With this information, we hope that you’ll be able to find a masturbator that best fits your needs… comfort and function wise, but also if it’s for partnered play, solo practice, stamina training, pleasure, or to get a well-rounded sexual wellness routine.
