Average Don Juan I know, this stuff fascinates me, too! LOL.

I think women are genuinely apathetic about masturbation (due to cultural reasons) and I think we’ve been conditioned to thinking we don’t need it much. Generally speaking. I have heard many herbalists and natural healers suggest that women masturbate at least 7 times a week — not necessarily once a day, but maybe twice here or there and none on one day…you get my drift. The point being that we have “different” pipes than a man, but no less need to keep the energy and hormone levels moving. I couldn’t agree with this more.

I think a big challenge for women is also fatigue — especially in mothers. Sex (in any form) is so often the first thing we give up when we’re tired because it does take some energy to get off. BUT…it’s so nourishing to the body to do that and can help with better sleep afterwards. I try to remind myself of this when I’m too tired.

Anyways…I could go on, but I’ll spare you. And I’ll leave on this note: I think 1–2 times a week isn’t nearly enough. ;) Though I’m glad if it gets women moving in the direction of routinely engaging in self-pleasure. Baby steps!
