Broken hands masturbate

This post is part of Mashable's Masturbation Week. May is National Masturbation Month, so we're celebrating by exploring the many facets of self-love. Look, we've all been there. Here are our ten favorite stories of masturbation gone wrong from the depths of Reddit. Hopefully you can't relate to any of the horrors below.

When it comes to masturbation, simple equals safe. But since variety is the spice of life, plenty of guys have decided to shake up their masturbation routines with exotic techniques or foreign objects. Spoiler alert: This usually does not end well. Take, for example, the year-old man who decided it would be fun to constrict the flow of blood to his penis—similar to what a penis ring is designed to do—by sliding a plastic bottle onto his Johnson. You can see where this is going. They have no idea if the man suffered any long-term effects because they never heard from him again—presumably because he was too embarrassed to answer their follow-up calls.

May has cum, which means International Masturbation Month is here. Sex ed has failed us all. I had the pleasure of spending this month curating and writing posts covering all types of topics around masturbation.

If I have some spare time and want to relax, I usually spend it watching Netflix or doing a face mask. I like it on occasion, but I can happily do without. But when some science-y types recommended masturbation breaks at work — as in wanking in the office during work hours — as a way to improve focus and be a happier, better employee, I was intrigued. Maybe I was missing out on all the benefits masturbation could bring.
