Despite female sexuality being so suppressed in our culture, masturbation is something that lots of people - irrespective of their gender - indulge in. But masturbation with a vulva is so less talked about that a lot of myths prevail in society. Swipe to bust some of them!

1 MYTH - Women don't masturbate.
FACT - This is like calling a duck "tiger". The truth cannot be farther from this statement! In fact, in a survey by a popular social media platform, it was found that 82% of Indian women masturbate!

2 MYTH - Women have to be taught how to masturbate.
FACT - There are many instances where women have discovered masturbation as young as 5 years old. Self-pleasure is almost always self-discovered!

3 MYTH - Women in relationships don't masturbate.
FACT - Self-pleasure is not a replacement for partnered sex. Women masturbate - whether or not they're in a relationship! In fact, mutual masturbation is quite a fun activity!

4 MYTH - Masturbation can cause health problems.
FACT - Quite the contrary, actually. Masturbation releases chemicals like dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, etc, that have many health benefits like relieving stress, better sleep, & a boost in confidence.
