What is masturbation?
Masturbation is when you touch your penis or vagina because it feels nice.
It is normal. Lots of people touch themselves.

You should only touch yourself in a private place when you are on your own.
You might want to do it at home. Your bedroom is a good place.
It should feel nice and you might have an orgasm.
An orgasm is a really nice feeling inside.
For men, an orgasm might mean that semen comes out of their penis.
For women, the vagina can get wet.
