Who would’ve thought that something that feels so good is actually good for you!

According to a study undertaken by sexual awareness and health company Tenga, the benefits of masturbating for men are countless! In their report Tenga explained that they hoped to change attitudes and “evolve the discussion around self-pleasure from secretive to celebratory.”

Tenga compiled data from more than 13,000 respondents aged 18-74 across 18 countries in what they called The Self-Pleasure Report, the biggest study of fapping ever essentially!

And the results are fascinating!

The study showed that 12% of British men that masturbate have a better quality orgasm and that they’re third in the world for masturbating, beaten (off lol) only by American and German men! And we’re all at it! The study showed that 96% of British men masturbate regularly!

The study also looked at the relationship between the emotional life of men and their masturbating habits.

11% of men that ‘Feel More’ (or are emotionally more connected) are more likely to masturbate on a monthly basis, with 23% of these men saying that they are open to using sex toys.

The men that masturbate most are millennial men who out-masturbate other men, with 57% of them admitting to doing it weekly.

The study in general showed that men who ‘Feel More’ or are emotionally more open and connected tend to have better sex lives, masturbate more, and even have more self-confidence.

The survey also showed that the top three reasons why people masturbate are for pleasure, to relieve sexual tension, and to de-stress.

So here’s your permission to start including wank as one of your 5-a-day!
