Male masturbators often get treated as a joke or a secret, and neither is fair. They are simply a tool for pleasure and a bit of self-care. Here is a calm, practical look at what they are and how to get the most out of one.
First, it is completely normal
Masturbation is one of the most common things people do, full stop. In a large US survey, the clear majority of men across every age group reported masturbating, and more than 80 percent reported it over their lifetime. A separate national study found that 44.8 percent of men had used a vibrator. In other words, you are in very ordinary company.
Looking after your own pleasure is part of looking after yourself.
It can be good for you
Beyond feeling good, there may be real upsides. A large Harvard-led study that followed nearly 32,000 men found that those who ejaculated more frequently had a lower risk of prostate cancer over time. It is an association rather than a guarantee, and it does not apply to every type of cancer, but it is a reassuring piece of the picture. Add the everyday benefits for stress and sleep, and a little solo time looks a lot like self-care.
Meet Leo
The KUNDZSI Leo is a premium masturbator with a soft textured inner sleeve and a discreet outer shell.
Quiet, rechargeable and easy to clean, it is made to feel good and to disappear into a drawer afterwards.
How to use it, step by step
Step by step
- Charge it and give yourself some unhurried, private time.
- Use plenty of water-based lubricant, inside the sleeve and on yourself. With a masturbator, more lube is almost always better.
- Ease in gently and let the texture do the work, without forcing the pace.
- Adjust the grip, angle and any speed settings until it feels right.
- Follow the build at your own rhythm, there is nothing to prove.
- Afterwards, rinse the sleeve well and let it dry fully before storing.
Beyond the sleeve
A sleeve is not the only option. A compact piece like the KUNDZSI Ovo is discreet and travel-friendly, and plenty of toys work just as well shared with a partner. Variety is part of the fun.
