Summary

A survey by Superdrug Online Doctor reveals the most common household items people use for masturbation when sex toys are unavailable, with preferences varying between men and women.

Abstract

The article titled "Quickie: What Household Items Do People Use for Sexual Pleasure Most?" discusses a survey conducted by Superdrug Online Doctor involving 900 men and women. The survey aimed to identify the most popular non-sex toy items used for masturbation due to the unavailability of traditional sex toys. The results indicate that both men and women frequently use items such as pillows, shower heads, and fruits or vegetables. However, there are gender-specific preferences: for instance, a higher percentage of women use shower heads compared to men. The article also notes that a significant portion of the respondents, 41 percent of men and 30 percent of women, have never used household items as sex toys, suggesting a reliance on more conventional methods of self-pleasure.

Opinions

  • The survey suggests a degree of creativity and resourcefulness among individuals when it comes to sexual self-pleasure.
  • There is a notable difference in the types of household items used by men and women for sexual purposes.
  • The article implies that while many people improvise with household items, a substantial number prefer traditional methods of masturbation.
  • The use of certain items like candles, hair brushes, and pens or markers indicates that individuals may select objects based on their texture, shape, or other sensory properties.
  • The survey's findings challenge the assumption that everyone engages in sexual experimentation with everyday objects, highlighting a diversity of sexual behaviors and preferences.

When your hand just won’t do but you don’t have any sex toys around, how do you handle self-service?

You may have to turn to regular items around the house to do the job, but which ones?

To find out the most common non-sex toys people use for masturbation, Superdrug Online Doctor conducted a survey of 900 men and women. This is how men ranked the items researchers asked about:

  • Pillows (21 percent)
  • Shower heads (19 percent)
  • Fruits or vegetables (19 percent)
  • Candles (14 percent)
  • Hair brushes (11 percent)
  • Pens or markers (10 percent)
  • Toothbrushes (8 percent)
  • Mattresses (8 percent)
  • Blankets (8 percent)
  • Tool handles (6 percent)
  • Beer or wine bottles (5 percent)
  • Toilet plungers (4 percent)
  • Makeup items (3 percent)
  • Remote controls (3 percent)

For women, the household items were ranked this way:

  • Shower heads (42 percent)
  • Pillows (25 percent)
  • Fruits or vegetables (18 percent)
  • Hair brushes (14 percent)
  • Toothbrushes (13 percent)
  • Candles (13 percent)
  • Pens or markers (10 percent)
  • Mattresses (8 percent)
  • Blankets (8 percent)
  • Makeup items (5 percent)
  • Beer or wine bottles (4 percent)
  • Tool handles (4 percent)
  • Remote controls (4 percent)
  • Toilet plungers (2 percent)

Lest you think that everyone questioned is getting freaky with anything and everything that hasn’t been nailed down, keep in mind that 41 percent of men and 30 percent of women reported that they’ve never used any type of household item as a sex toy. I guess they just handle horniness the five-fingered old-fashioned way.
