"Mutual masturbation" is misleading
Although an increasing number of people misuses the word "masturbation" to describe manual stimulation of genitals regardless of who does it, the original meaning of "masturbation" clearly points out that it's a sexual act performed on oneself. Therefore, the term "mutual masturbation" is self-contradictory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A31A:E140:1E00:DDF9:816D:E0F2:E884 (talk) 15:42, 31 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Incorrect. The etymology of the first part of "masturbate" comes from "manus" = "hand" in Latin. The always-great Etymology Dictionary says so here -
 * https://www.etymonline.com/word/masturbate?ref=etymonline_crossreference
 * So, any sort of hand-based sexual stimulation would count, the hand's owner isn't implied. Where'd you get your "original meaning" from? Nice IPv6 address btw!

 * Well, whoever authored this article believes that tribbing is somehow different from frotting. In reality, though, they mean the same thing: literally rubbing [genitals]. Only difference is that one refers to females and is derived from Greek, while the other refers to males and is derived from French. Not really rocket science. Looks like the author or the patroller of this article has watched too much so-called lesbian porn and believes that those lesbians are masturbating. Normally, masturbation means using one's hand (or, occassionally, someone else's hand). Anyway, good luck learning about human sexuality by wacthing "lesbian porn". Bye. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.252.60.247 (talk • contribs)
 * What in the world are you going on about? Tribbing and frotting are two different things, by your very own admission. They are both frottage, but are different types of frottage. And as seen, tribbing is not in the "Mutual masturbation" section. It's in the "Exclusively non-penetrative" section. And so is frot. Yes, it's currently not mentioned in the "Frottage" section, but it doesn't need to be. The section tells us, "Frottage is the general term for the act of rubbing any part of the body, including the buttocks, the breasts, abdomen, thighs, feet, hands, legs and sexual organs against the sexual organ of another person; this is done whether naked or clothed and is more commonly known as dry humping or dry sex. When frottage includes genital-genital rubbing, it is sometimes called genito-genital or GG rubbing." Obviously, that includes tribbing. I should remove your post as a WP:Not a forum violation.

Why it was not removed?
Why did no one delete the painting of a monk having sex with a woman? I thought it would be considered offensive material in Wikipedia since there are a lot of Catholics in Wikipedia who would be shocked to see the painting, the monk is naked and having sex with a woman which is against Catholicism --Eddiitt0 (talk) 16:35, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
 * WP:NOTCENSORED, "Attempting to ensure that articles and images will be acceptable to all readers, or will adhere to general social or religious norms, is incompatible with the purposes of an encyclopedia." I see you also posted this on 4 or more article talk pages. --GRuban (talk) 16:47, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

I posted this on 3 talk pages because I want to know why didn't Catholics delete images from the articles? I'm not Catholic myself but I thought maybe some Catholics would say that Wikipedia is misrepresenting Catholics and saying that monks love doggy style and like to masturbate, are you Catholic? --Eddiitt0 (talk) 17:34, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Read the link I posted. We don't delete images solely based on whether or not they are offensive or whether or not we like them. --GRuban (talk) 17:38, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

New section
Hey, everyone! I would love to know if the new section "Manual sex" and its source are good enough for this article? I created this because most people understand "mutual masturbation" as either two partners watching each other stimulate their own genitals or simultaneously stimulating each other's genitals. Please let me know if I need to fix anything! Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 23:48, 26 June 2023 (UTC)

Better mention of Kunyaza
Hello! I think Kunyaza should be mentioned under the Non-exclusively non-penetrative section, given kunyaza involves a non-penetrative and a penetrative phase in progression. This would open up conversation and help readers learn about other methods to reach full satisfaction. 108.46.18.172 (talk) 18:28, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

"Hookup culture" section does not seem relevant
Apart from the sentence "," nothing in that section appears to have much to do non-penetrative sex specifically. If anything, hook-up culture should be its own article, or part of another article on "dating culture" as a whole. Sparechair (talk) 11:35, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
