Masturbating With a Condom — Why and How to Try It

Ah yes, the Posh Wank. A charming little British term for when you masturbate with a condom on. To those unfamiliar, the very idea might raise an eyebrow. Why on earth would someone need to masturbate with a condom? It’s not like you can get your hand pregnant, or catch an infection when you’re flying solo, right? Is this a normal way to masturbate?

Well, as odd as it might sound at first, there are actually a few reasons why some people opt for a posh wank now and then. In this article, we’re going to dive into the curious world of masturbating with a condom; what it is, why people do it, and whether it might be worth a try yourself.

Masturbating With a Condom Benefits

It goes without saying that masturbating with a condom allows you to get all the wonderful benefits that masturbation gives on its own. Stress relief, prostate benefits, and all the others are still there. Makes sense because you are still masturbating. What does the condom add to the equation? For starters, it might make clean-up a whole lot easier. The condom collects whatever spunk you ejaculate, so really cleaning up just becomes just taking off the condom, throwing it out, and wiping off your penis. Most condoms also come pre-lubricated, so they could also save you some time and effort in adding lubricant or lotion yourself.

Good Practice for Sex

Condoms might also help you last longer. During sex, this is because the condom reduces sensitivity, which can make it take a little longer to ejaculate. That might be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on what you're looking for. If you're new to condoms, you might not be used to the sensations they create during sex. Taking the time to practice with them solo can improve your confidence in both putting them on and using them during partnered sexual experiences. Imagine the next time you get caught up in the heat of the moment with a partner and wowing them by your impressive putting-on-a-condom skills.

How to Masturbate with a Condom

This part is a little more straightforward. To masturbate with a condom, all you have to do is rip open your condom pack of choice, roll one on your erection, and have at it. Now that being said, there might be a couple of technique adjustments that you should keep in mind.

Mind Your Grip

Number one, your grip. During sex, it was found in a study that 7.3% of couples reported that the condom broke during use. Obviously the risks that come with a condom breaking are less severe when it comes to masturbation; however, it is important to keep this in mind when posh wanking. Gripping or stroking too hard may lead to a tear, which minimizes the benefit of keeping things “mess-free”.

Adjust Sensation

The pre-mentioned sensitivity differences between the condom and non-condom wanking are also something to consider. Different stroking speeds or stimulating other parts of the penis/testicles might be something you need to do in order to have a full, pleasurable experience.

Masturbating with a Partner

Some couples enjoy masturbating together. In fact, a small study found that mutual masturbation was associated with positive emotions and greater sexual satisfaction for both partners. Introducing a condom into mutual masturbation can be a fun way to change things up or help with timing so you can finish together. It could even turn into a shared experience rather than a solo act. That’s something you’ll need to explore and work out with your partner.

The TENGA Alternative

Is there a TENGA version of a posh wank? At the time of writing, TENGA doesn’t sell condoms in the West, but we do have alternatives. The closest (and in our opinion, better) option TENGA offers is the POCKET TENGA Series. These items offer all the benefits of masturbating with a condom, and then some.

Summary

Masturbating with a condom can be a great way to switch up your usual routine. It’s also a handy option if you’re not a fan of the mess that often comes with going bare. Condoms help keep things tidy, but they’re not the only solution.
