A: I have friends who have told me that they take an old stuffed animal and cut a hole into it and masturbate with the stuffed animal, don't know how well it'll work for you.
Also have heard that an empty toilet paper roll works as well for some people.
A: I find it VERY flattering usually...and most of the girls I know do as well. Go for it, if they don't like it, oh well right? Not really loosing anything.
