1. Are Humans The Only Animals Who Masturbate? Aptive apes and monkeys, as well as other animals, have been seen fondling their penis with hand or foot (or even taken into the mouth). In one study, young male chimpanzees were noticed handling each other's penis. Other limbs can be used to, such as with free-living spider monkeys and baboons, who use their tails. And elephants sometimes employ their trunks. http://www.allaboutsex.org/animalswhomasturbate.html[New Window]
2. Masturbating There is no reason to be afraid of masturbating. It is a perfectly normal and natural thing to do. It helps you relax and relieves tension. Women who can bring themselves to orgasm by masturbating are more likely to have an orgasm during sexual intercourse. http://www.pleaseyourlover.com/masturbation/[New Window]
