I don’t consume much porn, but in the videos I’ve seen I’ve noticed that it’s very common for women to lick their hands and masturbate and I guess it makes more sense than if a man does it, but I would like to know if I’m the only one who thinks that’s weird?

    i can’t speak for all vulva’d people, but… i feel like that’s mostly a porn thing.

    the amount of times i licked my hand before masturbating: once, to see if it was good. it wasn’t (and i find it kind of gross. no offense to ppl who are into it tho). and i masturbate a lot

    pre-transition, getting it wet wasn’t even that hard. why would i use spit for that lmao. i mean some people might have that issue, right, but i’d still rather just use lube if that were the case

    i think it’s just supposed to be hot for whatever reason

    I always just assumed it’s another visual for porn. There is only so much you can look at, so it helps add more for the viewer to think about. It looks hot, but in reality, I would imagine it’s rarely done. I have never done it either.

    It depends on the situation. As a penis owner, it’s very rough without lubrication, but I don’t always have access to something. So in those cases, I lick my hand to provide something.

    Granted, I have to do it repeatedly otherwise the friction gets worse than using nothing.

      That’s something I don’t really understand, I mean, why lubricate if the vagina itself is wet, right? My apologies if it sounds stupid or ignorant.

        Vagina may not always be wet enough. Not all women produce enough lube, even when much aroused. It essentially boils down to physiology.
