Female masturbation might just be one of the last taboos for modern sexuality.
In fact, many choose to view female masturbation as something similar to fairies, or fat-free chocolate: just a wonderful figment of our imagination that doesn’t really exist.
Well, it does, and recent years have seen a major swing towards normalising and encouraging women to become familiar with their own bodies.
Here’s what some of your favourite celebrities have to say about it.
Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria was quoted as saying she never enjoyed sex properly until she discovered vibrators and masturbation.
"You get better at sex when you know your own body. How are you going to expect a man to know your body when you don't know what pleases you? It's really important to have a healthy sexuality and to be open about it. It's not a taboo. It's normal."
Amy Schumer

To clarify - too much information referred to telling the whole world personal private habits and the word Yuk referred to that.
I was interested to see which 'celebrities' felt it necessary to inform all and sundry, and I only recognized one name, I'm pleased to say, and that was Halle Berry. The insignificance of the others can be explained by their desperate claim for attention.
Too much information!! Yuk!
Maybe you found the article more titillating that you're willing to admit, Annette, since you:
- Clicked on a title that clearly sets out what the article is about. 'Nine celbrities preach the joys of masturbation' is a title that leaves absolutely nothing unclear as to the contents of the article
- Obviusly read all nine comments from the celebrities
- Thought about it enough to be grossed out about it
- Took the time to comment
Life pro tip for you: if you think reading about masturbation is going into the TMI territory, don't click on articles that are obviously about exactly that!
I masturbate at least once a day. I have my technique down to a very fine art.
Thought i would share as you claim to be freaked out, but still read the article. I sense you actually being really interested in the topic but (as usual) prefer to default to negativity.
I am happy to give you tips to become more comfortable with your own body and sex drive. Masturbation is very healthy, and feels great too! ;)
Fair point Zepgirl but inaccurate. I was interested in the 'let it all hang out, no modesty, no self respect, no mystery, no private thoughts' just blatant self promotion and grandiosity which passes for 'fame' these days; and it was all there, just as I thought it would be.
As I said, Yuk, and titillating? You've got to be kidding.
So you knew exactly what it was going to be, and still read the article?! I retract nothing in my comment above.
