Various medical and psychological benefits have been attributed to a healthy attitude toward sexual activity in general and to masturbation in particular. Mutual masturbation, mutual manual stimulation of the genitals between partners, can be a substitute for sexual penetration.Studies have found that masturbation is frequent in humans of both sexes and all ages, although there is variation.
The stimulation may involve hands, fingers, everyday objects, sex toys or combinations of these. Masturbation is the self-sexual stimulation of the genitals for sexual arousal or other sexual pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm.
