What age did you start?
I started at age six and when I posted on another forum people said that it's weird for a bio girl to start that young.
Also..did you have fantasies at that age? I have had alot of weird ones...but I use to stuff my underwear with a sock to look like I had a dick. Sorry if this is tmi. The reason I am asking this is to see if there are others that started really young...or am I just weird?
Well, I hit puberty really early so I probably would have started around 9 if I hadn't completely repressed myself. Sexuality for me meant admitting I was a girl, and I wasn't going to do that. So I only started around 12. Totally ->-bleeped-<-ed up creepy fantasies. Mostly with me as a girl at first, took me a while for it to occur to me that I could do otherwise, then I'd put a bottle between my legs and treat it like a penis.
Actually, now that I think about it, I did masturbatory type things when I was around 8, I just didn't realise it. Usually without thinking about it, and when I was 9 or 10 occasionally with control/sadism fantasies minus the sexual element.
I don't remember a time where I didn't. Even a fetus will masturbate.
Nine. Probably earlier, but I didn't know what I was doing.
I don't know what age I was, but it was before I hit puberty when I started masturbating. I did the sock thing too, but only once I learned that boy's penises weren't just outey belly buttons like my mom told me :P
I was probably about 20 (seriously ::) ). Pretty much just ignored my body before then. I used the thumb of my other hand as an imaginary dick.
I started having fantasies when I was nine or so (I hit puberty at 12) and managed to come up with a strap on before I had any idea such a thing existed. I'd dry hump my plushies (I had some big ones) but I didn't/couldn't masturbate until I was 18.
When I was a toddler, I developed a rash from some soap or something and then couldn't stop playing with that area because it felt good. My parents were a little concerned and tried to stop me from doing it. It's not uncommon, though.

Oh wow, I used to do the sock thing. I bet that's somewhat common among FTM's actually. I'd wondered about that though. As for what age I first started masturbating at...that I remember, about 5, but it was probably earlier.
I was a young child around 9 years old I think when I discovered the fine art of masturbation. I always did it in the shower with the water hitting me just in the right spot. Back then, we only had one bathroom with 7 of us in the house. Man, my parents would bang and bang on the door for me to get out of the shower. There were many times they shut the water off at the main in the basement on me.....
I did the sock thing.. cept i did it with pointy roled up toilet papers.. hmmm probably when I was between 8 and 10.. somewhere in there, stopped with that after a while. Didn't discover maturbation til 4 months before I turned 18. I had been raised believing it was evil... accidently got off.. and I was hooked.. even while trying to keep myself from doing it because I thought it was sin.. bahaha.
haha I didn't start until I was like 16 or 17. I was a very sheltered kid and didn't even think about sex until about 15/16.
Twenty-five. I'm a freak who repressed everything until I got on T.
I didnt figure out what masturbation was till i was 16 lol
I realized "if you touch here it feels good" when I was maybe 10 but didn't really know what it was or do it often until I was 16/17. I couldn't get off at that age and had my first orgasm when I was 18 after finding the right combination of mental and physical stimulation. I've never been able to have multiple orgasms.
Four or five. Maybe younger, I don't remember. I packed with TP too at that age. I'd put some water on it and shape it into a penis.
Had to be around age seven or eight... didn't know what it was til much later though.
I think I was 16, but I rarely if ever do it now because it freaks me the hell out.
I knew that "if I touch here it feels good" really early on. Probably like 3 years old. My mom caught me and some friends playing weird 'doctor' games around that time, too...Ahahaha ;). Then I started actually masturbating around 7ish. I actually freaked out for a while because I thought that maybe something that good was bad for my health, and I would die from too many orgasms. I still didn't know what it really was until I was like 10-11, though (and I was glad to know that I could continue my addiction).
Good times, good times.
i really didn't like anything to do with 'that area' so i didnt try it till i was 18.
For me, the whole thing started very early. I was an avid masturbator from 5-6 and on, and still going strong.
I had a lot of oppurtunities to experiement with myself and other curious kids when I was that age, so growing up it was more second nature. No shame here.
I was probably about 10 or 11; my daughter OTOH was 3 or 4.

Honestly, there was nothing that clicked off in my head in that department until probably 13. I would imagine that as a kid I'm sure I touched myself and I remember different points where I'd notice something was going on with the equipment but I was more like, huh that's interesting, ok whatever. I didn't actually learn people got themselves off until probably age 12. I was an only child and didn't have older friends or anything like that so I'd say I was sheltered. I was much more interested in legos and action figures than anything sexual. It wasn't until I was 15 that it was any kind of regular activity for me.
I was nine and I always felt like I was doing something wrong. I got caught so many time :P
It started probably around when I was 5.
I really can't remember. All I remember is that it was late in life, and I didn't want to continue. I was being raped as a kid, so that sexually repressed me more than anything until I was 18 and got together with my current boyfriend. Even thought it was a long distance relationship for the first two years, I still refused to masturbate when he wasn't around to take care of those needs. Now that I live here, I have the perfect excuse not to, he's across the street! It's not a rape issue at this point since I'm completely comfortable with sex. It's an "You're the wrong parts!" issue. I just don't want to acknowledge them! I know, I'm a looser xD.
I used to touch it when I was 3-6. Don't know why but I just did and I'd put powder on it and stuff =/
I started really masturbating when I was 9 or 10. I did the water thing too. Now, I just rub and play some porn vids on my comp >:-)
I love the way this forum makes you talk about things you normally wouldn't!
I really have to think about this one....but it was probably around 10 or 11...then around 13 I found reading gay male porn surprisingly stimulating...odd because sexually I am drawn to females....
Well I guess I'm the odd one out here.
I didn't even know what masturbation was until around the 8th grade. I never had any desire to try it.
Once I turned 18 I decided I should try it. It did absolutely nothing for me. I didn't like it at all and it didn't feel right so I haven't done it since.
heading towards 15-16 and havent stopped since
It's interesting to see the varying ages in this....
I had fantasies and stuff when i was 5-6, but never considered touching myself. It just didn't occur to me that it might be enjoyable xD. then when I learned about sex i tried poking around down there and didn't find it interesting (I didn't know about the clit at that point....). I remember vividly a conversation with someone in high school that "girl's can't jerk off. there's nothing to jerk." I told her to explain it to me if it was possible and she refused, and I thought I had won LOL.
It wasn't until I was 18 or 19 that I figured it out for real (coincidentally the first thing that got me off was gay porn) and though OH, so this is what the hype is about. My sex drive has been kinda insane ever since :angel: >:-)
I was four! I've heard from a handful of bio women that they started that early. I remember getting turned on by watching trashy daytime talks like "Guess who's a man and who's a woman" and "sexy scandals" and stuff like that, then going in my room and humping my teddy bear. I didn't pack, though, because it was a while before I knew there was even such thing as a penis!
You're totally not weird! But I think you've probably figured that out by everyone else contributing similar responses! You're not weird if you start at 5, 10, 16, 25 or 40. <3
I started around age six too. I think it is pretty strange, at least for me. Because I didn't start puberty until I was 11 or 12.
I started really young too, at about 6 or something like that, I dont know how I figured it out :P And I didnt fantasise about sex (since I didnt know what that was) I actually fantasised about being able to pee on a tree haha, wow...interesting. Weird stuff turned me on when I was little :-X I used to use my pinky or thumb and pretend it was a penis...and then one day this stuffed arm ripped off my sisters doll and it was perfect :D I used to try and tell my little brother a little later on when I was 9 and he was 4 that some girls did have penis's and that I was one of them.
But then again, I kinda dont think Im completely normal because I can masturbate in a way that feels really good...without needing to take my clothes off, without needing to use my hands or have anything touching me :-\ Its just a pushing motion through some random muscles inside my body or wherever. Whenever I ask about it on other forums, people tell me its impossible...but there must be others out there who know what Im talking about? Its always been that way. Im way too scared to put anything inside of whats down there so I learned to do this instead. I dont even know if you would call it masturbating, all I know is that it feels sexually good. I guess it can come in handy at times tho. I can "masturbate" at school in class and no one suspects a thing ;)

Nothings impossible when it comes to orgasms. There are certainly people who can get off by thinking of things that turn them on and flexing (I used to get pretty close that way in the back seat of the car on road trips with my parents- Uhoh!) But there is even a lot of study lately into achieving orgasm by yoga and breathing- so don't believe them when they tell you it's impossible. That you do it is proof enough!
I was 11 I think, I don't remember doing it before puberty. I didn't do it regularly till I was 13/14 though as I felt guilty and wrong afterwards but I got over that.
Most of my masturbation involved things that didn't require I actually touch myself, like waterjets. That began before I can remember...0_o
My sexual fantasies consisted of bondage-type scenarios. I kind of figured that sex wouldn't occur for me without force...at which point I realized that that turned me on. I remember that starting in kindergarten.
In middle school (around puberty actually) I began dry-humping. I stopped doing that out of shame and fear, however.
Now that I'm actually in a sexual relationship for the first time, I like very light penetration...this hasn't changed my plans to get sewn up down there later in life, tho ;) We dapple in light bondage and dominance/submission... SLOWLY ACHEIVING PARTS FOR A STRAPON! YUSSS.... >:-)
10 or so. I tried earlier, but couldn't get it to feel good until I read some sex ed material that explained how what I have is like a mini penis, and tried interacting with it like that (holding on to it like a 3-dimensional organ) instead of just rubbing it on top like a button or something.
I also did the sock thing.
