Naked or clothed? That is the question.

Do you get completely naked to masturbate, guys? Why or why not?

Time and again, the age-old discussion regarding the… er… optimal attire for masturbation would come up online. The topic is popular among gay men as it sparks curiosity and discussion among individuals exploring their own pleasure preferences. Whether to go completely naked or maintain some degree of clothing during solo intimate moments is a question that often arises, with opinions varying widely. Some advocate for going entirely nude, while others find comfort and arousal in being partially clothed.

In this thread, the original poster (OP) initially asked, “Do you guys get naked to masturbate? I always keep my underwear on and just pull it out of the front and my buddy said that was weird and asked why I wouldn’t just get naked so it got me thinking what other guys might do?”

One respondent assured OP, “I’ve jerked off fully naked, only underwear, only boots, fully clothed dick out thru the fly, and over my clothes rubbing my dick.” He then explained, “Everyone is different, there isn’t one main, so definitely not weird.”

This gay man, on the other hand, said it depends on the location, “Only at home. If I am wanking in public, I tend to keep most of my clothes on.”

In general, there are guys who are for masturbating naked like these men who said, “Fully naked. I have been jacking off with my dildo up my butt a lot here lately so fully naked is the most practical way to go.” And this one who replied, “Pretty much always naked… usually do it in bed anyways.”

On the other hand, there are also those who prefer masturbating clothed and it’s usually because of the cold like this gay man who said, “I’m usually cold, I leave a shirt or tank top on and socks.” Meanwhile, this guy revealed, “I do not prefer the sensation of direct skin-to-skin connect at the groins, it somehow makes me uncomfortable.” He added, “I typically masturbate with everything on, and just touch indirectly over my underwear.”

Personally, the choice between going naked or partially clothed during masturbation is deeply personal and subjective. What may work wonders for you may not resonate with another. Ultimately, the key lies in embracing self-awareness and exploring what feels most comfortable, arousing, and satisfying for you.
