30 something woman here, apparently I masturbate a lot compared to my friends.
I have to say “yeah once a week too” when they raise the subject ,when in fact it is multiple times a day. Husband would also do 2 times a day if he kept to his “normal” cadence. I know “whatever works for me” is right, but I’d like to compare to other people my age that aren’t my friends.
I’m a 48yo guy but for what it’s worth, when I don’t masturbate it’s usually a sign of depression.
Once or twice a day sounds normal to me, like going to the toilets.
Satisfying sex will satiate me for much longer than a quick wank though.
I’d comment on my wife but I think her aphantasia and almost complete ignorance of porn makes her particularly uncommon, regarding masturbation.
