-- The Sex Shed has unveiled the results of its latest survey on masturbation habits.
This study asked over 1,000 adults how they prefer to masturbate, uncovering surprising insights into regrets, habits, and bold choices people make during their intimate moments.
While masturbation is widely accepted as a normal and healthy part of self-care, the survey revealed unique trends in frequency, techniques, and adventurous settings that reflect evolving attitudes toward solo play.

The survey reveals that while nearly 30% of respondents wished they had explored anal play earlier, 97% of them were men.
Additionally, 15% of respondents regretted not incorporating sex toys like vibrators, strokers, or dildos into their solo routines sooner.
