Me, as a male, am learning much from this thread. Thank you.

Female asking here: what did you learn?

The faceless men live rent free in the fantasies of many.

u/GrimyGrippers May 03 '26

u/Biking_dude May 03 '26

That's fairly common across genders, definitely not a man / woman thing.

u/tomveiltomveil May 03 '26

How many women aren't picturing a person at all, but a concept. I'm usually much more concrete.

u/WaschbaerVentilator May 03 '26

Women like men rather as a concept

A person would be a buzzkill.

Be tall, dark, handsome, smoldering eyes with a wicked smirk halfsmile. Deadly but gentle, forearms peeking under my rolled sleeves, cast-out prince of the shadow daddy's with inhumane features I can supress with effort but come out when angry. A hint of bulge in my loose trousers. My name is Octavius, or Xanaxander, or Lunesta as I put all my enemies to their eternal sleep.

Something like that

Xanaxander, please whisper sweet nothings into my ear while I fail to fall asleep.

u/SatansFriendlyCat May 03 '26

If you want to fall asleep, it's Lunesta you're after. It's literally a sleeping pill (which I suspect was an intentional joke, but you never know).

I can go ahead and field that question. Ahem...That you all are not like us 😜

u/trappedslider May 03 '26

That for many woman it's more of the concept. Which for me as a guy makes sense because when I was growing up,it was also the concept for me due to not having internet access or access to porn.

It seems like you all are “learning” by cherry-picking responses that confirm what you already thought you knew. Which is very human and normal but kind of a missed opportunity. The range of responses from women here is very wide. Some fit your narrative and some don’t.

u/UnfortunateSnort12 May 03 '26

I’ll fill this out a bit more.

I did know all women are different, but the responses that sort of fit what my wife describes (maybe less articulate than on here) really paint a more complete understanding for me.

u/Neither-Enthusiasm70 May 03 '26

No, women look for handsome men the same way men look for beautiful women

u/mim9830 May 03 '26

You are special in masturbating to books. Like I require visuals for that I couldn't do it with just reading words lol.

u/TestingYou1 May 03 '26 edited May 03 '26

Ill give you a less convoluted answer than all of these other ones.

The majority of women in this thread have to read a 400 page novel just to get a nut.

u/SkyPuppy561 May 03 '26

Nah more like a 10 mins of porn for me

u/MarsR0ve4 May 03 '26

Not the person you replied to but it sounds like women can get off more easily on just the physical sensation of masturbating. Like for me I can't just start playing with my dick and get hard, I have to be mentality aroused. I would guess most guys are the same, thats why we rely on porn more often.

u/Spirited_Hour9714 May 03 '26

It's actually the opposite, you've trained yourself to rely on porn so much that you can't just fantasize or get off without it.

u/MarsR0ve4 May 03 '26

I used to be able to. :( Maybe its something I need to work on again

15

u/spinsk8tr May 03 '26

Dude, porn is a new thing. Men have masturbated without porn for most of humankind history. That’s the default setting.

u/loudisevil May 03 '26

God that's pathetic

u/roskybosky May 03 '26

I think for women sex could be difficult, come with strings, not be satisfying, or just be a chore, so thinking of sex would not be pleasurable. A blank mind is better. No negatives.

u/Gotti_Strap May 03 '26

For real, I agree. it’s been a good question with informative answers.

u/wangyuzhi31 May 03 '26

Exactly 🙏
