MORE women than ever before are taking time out to pleasure themselves, a survey revealed today.
The poll reveals nine out of 10 are regularly taking time out for some solo action - the highest number ever.
Sessions
And two-thirds of women admit to pleasuring themselves three times a week, with women in London finding the time for four sessions every seven days.
The Gossard Big M Survey confidentially quizzed more than 1,000 UK women aged 18-30 with an extensive questionnaire to find out all about their sexual attitudes, habits, fantasies and practices.
‘ One of the best things about pleasing ourselves is that it gives us more confidence when we’re intimate with our partners ’
The survey results clearly show how women’s attitudes and practices have changed over the decades - 92 per cent of women admitting to touching themselves this year, compares with only 74 per cent in 1979 and 62 per cent in 1953.
Leading woman’s coach, Jessica Chiver, said: “It’s no wonder more and more women are self-pleasuring when you look at how liberated we’ve become in other areas of our lives and the shot of mood boosting hormones orgasm gives us.
“One of the best things about pleasing ourselves is that it gives us more confidence when we’re intimate with our partners - we communicate better and feel more satisfied which is good for everyone.”
