The point of intercourse is bond cementing, and intimacy in union - as well as cementing further through the possibility of a child resulting. The whole brain is wired to want that.
While some may find their hands yield certain stress relief results of stimulation with better efficiency, a healthy mind is going to prefer intimacy every time. Not because it's guaranteed to give more efficient output. But because the soul desires companionship - not just stress relief. And furthermore, intimacy leads to something no amount of self-handling can produce: validation.
The things one will do, will excuse, in pursuit of even a little validation, are a critical component of defining the human experience - for better or worse.
Perhaps we can agree to disagree on the child rearing part. I've NEVER wanted to be a parent and knew this from the age of 15. Even though humans are designed to reproduce, I don't believe that every single one of us feels compelled to multiply. LOL. There's lots of folks taking up the reproductive slack for me :)
@loveslongnails : Psychological barriers can, if strong enough, override biological compulsions. I wanted to be a parent. But the winds of life denied me the option. That being said... I would choose a woman I can embrace in my arms, wrap myself around her as a protective blanket, and kiss in the morning... that, I would gladly prefer to have. Even if she cannot perform certain other tasks with as great of efficiency as I can do for myself. To deny her a role just doesn't seem right. Though, there needs to be a her, for me to even have a choice.
I can understand that.
Though touching myself can offer a certain degree of of pleasure it does not substutee for the experience of exploring a new lover. An intelligent enthusiastic lover with whom is you can develop a 6th Sense of rhythmn & synchronicity. That is something very special?
Lol I just hold out for the orgasm. Anything else doesn’t do anything for me

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!Hard to compare this is just very different. I answered half.
But sex is really not just about the orgasm
This poll is about masturbation
I say probably at least a 6.
Yeah I understood that. Masturbation is relatively limited in what you can do before orgasm. When having intercourse what happen before the orgasm is as enjoyable as the orgasm, and for me it can change how I feel the orgasm itself
I guess 10. I don’t think the orgasm for me is really more pleasurable. At some point you want the release/relief and in that situation the orgasm becomes satisfying. It’s a different sensation but I wouldn’t say better than intense stimulation around the glans.
The moment right before is better!
Young lady you really like those topics
To me there's no comparison as for a woman I couldn't answer
An orgasm is way better than physically stimulating my genitals. I physically stimulate my own genitals for the purpose of having an orgasm.
I saw your update to the question, but I'm still going to compare lol:
I would rather a woman physically stimulate my genitals than give myself an orgasm
There's ejaculation and there's orgasm in my opinion. Self masturbation is something that is better than nothing, but no where close to the same feeling as intercourse...
I think you mean to ask "which way is more pleasing when reaching orgasm? A) manually or B) hiring an assistant. Answer It deends on how good a particular individual is with their hands. Some girls can really suck a cock and that is the best way. Make sure you have a proper seal with your mouth and the then suck hard not too hard , but within reason for comfort. Also remember to Pace yourself. No fifteen minuet blowjobs so take your time thirty minuet minimums are a good deal to start. For two for too five for for tree too too Dave call me I'll help you get it right
More pleasurable.
Yuck only plebs use their hands lmao
You don't use ur hands
I don’t like using my hand.
Can I ask why you don't like it
I just don’t I never have I’m fine with my vibrator
No..
I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE
Lol hands. Yeah technology has given us toys. Haven’t used my hand in some time. As it compares to sex, yeah technology is getting close. I have had sex with my girlfriend in almost 4 years. getting to the point with better technology, why even bother asking.
Vaginas always top hands. Tongue, in between.
Sometimes I think the adventure is better then the treasure...
Nothing replaces the feeling of stimulation by a woman...
Masturbate never can be better than pussy sex , but if any time I do it in alone because of unpresent of my partner , I will say it's less than half pleasure ☺️
More than half
Love having my balls stimulated and nipples played with
I'd say stroking my wiener is about 82% as pleasurable as the orgasms I receive from it.
Higher tbh
