Masturbation

I didn’t expect most of the comments made on the handout given in the lecture to be made by women. I was shocked! I tend to associate masturbation with males rather than females. This may be because it is more acceptable for men to openly talk about masturbation, whilst woman may be criticised more for it, therefore don’t openly admit to it. Similarly to how it is more acceptable for men to sleep around, but when women do it they’re stereotyped as hoes! I found an interesting article on whether it is now acceptable for woman to masturbate. www.guardian.co.uk/world/2000/nov/21/gender.uk
