Growing up sex wasn't something openly talked about. Looking back at it, i definitely could have asked but hindsight is 20/20. I took sex ed in elementary school and heard about masturbating from my classmates. One day (in middle school) I finally mustered up the courage to ask my dad about masturbation and if he did it. And to my surprise he said he did it pretty much every day and that *all* boys do it. He explained how to do it then went in his night stand and got a bottle of clear oil and handed it to me. He told me go ahead and try it while he went and cooked dinner.
I went back to my room did it and it felt amazing.
