What is autoeroticism?
Autoeroticism is a sexual activity that encompasses the individual’s own body, obtaining pleasure and satisfaction. It is not limited only to masturbation, but encompasses fantasies, desires, dreams.
Autoeroticism is of utmost importance for sexual development, it is a safe practice since it prevents the transmission of diseases and fundamentally helps to activate the erogenous zones.
For Freud, one of the ways to manifest autoeroticism is through masturbation, as well as the use of sex toys.
We must think differently, masturbation is normal at all ages, it is not only a woman’s thing nor is it a selfish act that prevents you from enjoying sex as a couple.
Today it is important to understand that self-pleasure should not be thought about or felt guilty.
It serves to explore and get to know your own body, perhaps with the help of certain erotic toys and cosmetics that undoubtedly optimize pleasure. It can reassure the person who masturbates with erotic toys or cosmetics since it is a risk-free sexual activity. There is no risk of pregnancy or contagion and above all it helps the blood supply.
It is important to know that you can have pleasure and satisfaction without the need for another person and above all to realize that it is in me to enjoy and enjoy.
