Masturbating against corona - and being alone

Quarantine, working from home, hoarding - life has changed dramatically with the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus: Plus travel and contact bans. It all adds up to quite a lot. "Social distancing" is the order of the day - also for your own sex life. There's only one thing that helps: it's up to the woman - and the man. No wonder, you have to get through this time somehow. Now you might say, well, how else are you supposed to do it when there's no partner around?

That's right. Masturbating satisfies the body - when you are sexually active, dopamine is released, which makes us feel braver and more positive about the future. At the same time, the feeling of pleasure gives us a happiness boost, which is important in these times. Masturbation is not just about sex, but also about the lack of closeness and hugs from a partner. Dating platforms are currently experiencing high growth, because you can start looking around - for the time after corona. You have to keep yourself busy somehow and let's be honest: at some point, you won't be able to see the 1,000 banana cakes anymore, no matter how delicious they are. It's better for your figure to focus on yourself anyway instead of piling on heaps of corona kilos. And anyone who still has their mother in their ear: "You don't do that!" should know: Yes, you do - and now more than ever!

Couples also do it themselves

This is indeed surprising: does your own husband ever hit your vagina? According to a survey conducted by sex toy manufacturer We-Vibe, sexual behavior has changed. 1,200 couples in a relationship were surveyed: it came to light that over half of couples (54%) prefer to do it themselves rather than with their partner. 73% of couples living apart from each other also feel like having solo sex - whether this is due to longing or spicy sex games via video calls, who knows ... Anyone waiting for a spectacular marriage proposal will have to be patient. Couples argue more often due to physical proximity. 78% of respondents can even imagine that the number of separations and divorces will increase due to the crisis. In addition, there is less desire to deal with plans for the future in these times. So a solo quickie in the here and now is the better option!
