( Of course, we have Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions.)ДЄnd now, I'd like to introduce you to my girlfriend Jill (Shakes hands).ДЄnd because this page wouldn't be complete without her: In Ankh-Morpork on Discworld, Rosie Palm, the head of the Seamstresses' Guild, is named as a Shout-Out to this, derived from an old British euphemism, 'Rosie Palms and her five lovely daughters'.ДЇUN FACT: There is a Spanish actress known as Rossy de Palma. In older media, expect references to hairy palms and/or blindness, two widespread myths used to keep boys from masturbating, with keeping boys from masturbating being a major motive for Moral Guardians and their anti-porn crusades. though that's not to say that female masturbation isn't given any attention in fiction (the ' Rumpelstiltskin' tale supposedly had the original message, 'women who masturbate become infertile'). There aren't many ways that masturbation could advance the plot of a story, and because it's generally a solitary activity, there usually won't be any character interaction involved.ДЄlso note that outside of pornography, male masturbation is used far more often than female. Of course, there's a pretty valid reason why 'normal' masturbation isn't depicted very often-it doesn't accomplish much. Male masturbation isn't too uncommon either, though in most heterosexually-oriented works the stimulation is provided by an accompanying girl (note that in cases such as this, the term 'masturbation' is limited to the stimulation of the penis with the hand or male sex toys, with oral and mammary sex being considered leagues of their own) the main exception to this is when a boy is intending to ejaculate soon, in which case solo masturbation is just as common as partner-performed masturbation. Pornographic examples of masturbation can either occur via a person stimulating themselves or by having a partner get them off female masturbation tends to be depicted more often in porn both due to the larger amount of methods by which a girl can achieve sexual stimulation (rubbing, fingering, fisting, placing a vibrating object on the vulva, or sticking a foreign object in the vagina) and due to the perception that most porn-watchers are heterosexual males. Note that while venereal disease tests are frequent in the porn industry, there have been multiple cases of pornstars getting pregnant or infected as the result of a faulty shoot. In hardcore porn, masturbation also tends to be used as a way for boys to ejaculate onto their partners after pulling out, as doing the latter right before an orgasm is incredibly difficult and extremely risky there's no guaranteeing that the boy's semen won't end up in his partner or on their vulva/anus (which is enough for a girl to get pregnant or for the partner to contract an STD, regardless of gender), or that the boy won't end up contracting an STD himself from an accidental creampie. In porn or erotica, it can be used for sexual titillation for the viewers.For obvious reasons, the latter case is heavily frowned down upon. In some other cases (such as the infamous Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse case), it can be used as a form of psychological torture via personal humiliation. The masturbation here would be explained by the shortage of women ( or men), boredom and loneliness. The character masturbating is sexually frustrated, disturbed, perverted, or is a nerd/has no social life.It's aimed at or about teenagers (usually Played for Laughs) and the character is either a horny teenage boy, or another character, usually the parents, think that he's masturbating when he is very obviously ( or sometimes not so obviously) not.

Unlike Nobody Poops or No Periods, Period, where the function is simply not mentioned because it would be Nausea Fuel, masturbation in fiction often fits into four different categories:

However, it's given quite a different treatment in fiction. However, it's not something you'd bring up in polite conversation, since nobody really wants to talk about playing with their genitals. Lots of people masturbate! It's nothing to be ashamed of after all, it's both sexually satisfying and good for your health.
