23 Household Things To Masturbate With That Are Pleasurable & Practical

When it comes to pleasuring yourself, there is more to use besides your hand. If you don’t have a toy, then try these things to masturbate with.

When it comes to masturbating, we’re usually given two options: hands or sex toys. Do you ever wish there were other things to masturbate with?

Our hands never let us down—they’re always there when needed. But sometimes, the whole masturbating-with-our-hands routine gets a little dull. It’s normal to want to spice things. Plus, our hands can’t get deep into the good parts.

We also have toys. And toys are great, but not all of us have one of our own. Maybe you’re scared to buy a new toy because you don’t know which one to get, you live at home and are nervous about your parents finding it, or your toy inconveniently ran out of batteries *it happens*.

Whatever your reason, it’s completely understandable. [Read: How to masturbate and experience pleasure in new ways]

But first, let’s talk about the benefits of masturbation before we talk about the many convenient household things you can masturbate with, that are lying all around the house!

The biggest benefits of masturbation

Self-pleasuring, or masturbation, is touching and rubbing parts of your body for sexual arousal and pleasure. You can explore your own body alone, or you could do mutual masturbation with another person.

Masturbation is extremely common at all ages by both males and females. It’s a healthy way to explore your body, figure out what feels good sexually, and how to achieve an orgasm.

Getting sexual pleasure through masturbation is a very normal part of most people’s sexual experiences. How often someone masturbates is different for each person though. It could be anywhere from several times a day, a week, or once a month. Some people don’t even masturbate at all.

How often you do it isn’t a problem unless the time you spend doing it is replacing other parts of your life causing it to be unhealthy and unbalanced. [Read: Chronic masturbation and how to stop your hands from lingering too often in your pants]

Now let’s get into the health benefits of masturbation.

1. Releases sexual tension

We don’t always have a partner around to fulfill our sexual needs at any given moment. So, all you need is yourself if you want to let some of that sexual tension out.

2. Lets you explore your sexuality on your own

You know the parts of your body that are the most sensitive. And you can experiment with the best ways to make yourself feel good – and then share that with your partner.

3. It can be done whether you’re single or in a relationship

Masturbation is for everyone, regardless of whether you’re single or in a relationship. You don’t need to wait to find the perfect person to experience sexual pleasure. [Read: Going solo – The 15 sexy benefits of masturbation]

4. It helps you relax and sleep better

Because masturbation can reduce stress levels, it also helps you relax and get better sleep at night.

5. It releases endorphins which cause you to feel a sense of well-being

When you have an orgasm, your brain releases neurotransmitters called endorphins. These are the “feel good” hormones that give you a sense of well-being.

And now that we have a brief understanding of why masturbation can be a good thing, let’s talk a walk around your house and pick up the best household things to masturbate with and leave you with a pleasurable orgasm!

The 23 best and most convenient household things to masturbate with 

So, then what are your options? Well, don’t assume you’re stuck. There are plenty of things lying around your house that you can masturbate with.

You don’t always need a sex toy to get the job done!

1. Showerhead

If you’ve seen almost any chick flick, you’ll notice the showerhead being used as a masturbation tool. And, in reality, you can actually use it.

If you’re looking for a clitoral vibrator, then a showerhead is your best option. Get yourself comfortable in the shower, turn the water on, and have a good time. [Read: How to make shower sex sizzle and have a really good time]

2. Spatula

You can use it to make cake another day. Right now, you’re going to use it to masturbate. The spatula is a great tool to use during foreplay. If you’re getting yourself aroused, either alone or with a partner, take the spatula and spank yourself with it.

You can use the other end as a dildo, just make sure it’s thick enough. [Read: Naughty tips for a sexy spanking]

3. iPhone

Your iPhone does more than you think. Aside from social media and connecting you to friends and family, your iPhone can also act as a vibrator.

The beauty of the iPhone is that you can create your own vibration. Now, it’s not great for clitoral stimulation, so, you may need to send in a complaint to Apple.

4. Back massager

After giving yourself a back massage, why not use it as a vibrator. The beauty of the back massager is that it comes with a variety of different settings you can play around with.

If you want a stronger setting, you just hit the switch, and you’ll be that much closer to reaching orgasm. [Read: 15 common household items that can be used sexually]

5. Wii remote

Who thought your WII remote could be so magnificent. All this time you thought a Wii was time-consuming. Well, now you have a reason to love it!

A Wii remote is a pretty good masturbation tool. It vibrates, which is a plus, but find a good game to play it on, or else the vibrations can be a little weak.

6. Electric toothbrush

Here we go. The electric toothbrush gets the job done. If you enjoy using vibrating dildos, then you’ll like the electric toothbrush.

It gives off a strong vibration, and you’ll be able to insert it inside of you. [Read: The best homemade dildos that work perfectly for when the moment strikes]

7. Ice cubes

Aside from masturbation, use ice cubes in many different ways when having sex. They’re pretty versatile. If it’s a hot summer day, use an ice cube to cool your genitals off. It’ll give them a tingling sensation that’ll get you in the mood.

8. A pillow

Though a pillow doesn’t vibrate, it does do the trick when you need to grind against something. Plus, it can be used as a prop to help you reach orgasm.

It’s soft, you’re not going to cut yourself, and all you need to do is grind against it. [Read: Pillow humping – How to hump a pillow and the best ways to do it]

9. Washing machine

You can use whatever you’d like when masturbating on top of the washing machine. Whether you use your hands, a sex toy, or one of these items on the list.

Crank the machine on to spin cycle and take a seat. Let the machine do the rest of the work while you feel the vibrations going up your body. You can also give this a try if you’re with your partner as well.

10. Bathtub faucet

The showerhead is definitely more practical and functional when you’re looking for things to masturbate with, but if you don’t have one, then a bathtub faucet can do the trick.

For women, lay on your back with your legs against the wall as the water hits your clitoris. Just make sure the water isn’t too hot. You don’t want to explain this in the emergency room. [Read: How to finger yourself – 14 exact steps to touch yourself and start cumming]

11. Banana peel

If you have a male partner who’s into mutual masturbation, give this a try. For men, a banana peel can work wonders and make a pretty good replica fleshlight. And you were going to spend $200 on a fleshlight? Umm, no!

Just munch on a banana and use the peel. Cut the tip of the banana, make a small slit, and insert your penis inside. [Read: Mutual masturbation and 14 ways to connect intimately]

12. A towel

If you’re trying out mutual masturbation, this is a great option for a male partner. Take a towel and place it in lukewarm water.

Wring it out and use it to mimic the vagina during masturbation. Sure, it’s not the exact same thing as the vagina, but it’s a different sensation. 

13. Immersion blender

Make sure you remove all the blades before using it!! But once you do, you have yourself a pretty great dildo. The downside is you’ll need to plug it in before using it, that is if you want the vibrating sensation. Put a condom on it, turn it on, and you’re good to go.

14. Hairbrush

Ah yes, the classic hairbrush. Don’t use the end with all the bristles. Instead, flip it around and use the head of it to masturbate with.

If you want to use the bristles, you can run them across your body and feel the sensation go through your inner thighs and bum.

15. Candle

As strange as it might sound, some people look at the wax sitting on their dining room table and wonder what it would feel like to masturbate with.

However, actual sex toys are made of silicone, which is pretty safe for the human body. So, you might want to cover it with a condom first.

16. Pen or marker

Well, a pen or marker can be used if you are looking for something small to masturbate with. Obviously, it’s not as thick as a real penis, but that doesn’t mean that some people don’t like using it to create some self-pleasure. [Read: Female masturbation – 17 facts about the naughty secret]

17. Mattress

Similar to the pillow option, you can also use your mattress. It’s not uncommon for women to use more than one masturbation technique at the same time. You can touch yourself while simultaneously grinding up and down on your mattress.

18. Blanket

If you want to stick to the bed products when you masturbate, then you can also try using a blanket. You can roll it up like a pillow, and then put it between your legs and do your thing until you get off.

19. Makeup

And you thought that makeup was used just to make yourself more beautiful! Well, it can also be used to make yourself orgasm.

Some women use their lipstick or mascara in place of a vibrator. You can also try a foundation brush handle. Whatever works for you. [Read: 12 fun ways to masturbate and experience pleasure in a whole new way]

20. Bottle

Beer and wine bottles don’t just hold alcohol anymore. You can also use them as a sex toy. Because they have a skinny top to them, they can be inserted quite easily. But you might want to think about using lube and a thick condom as well.

21. Tool handle

If you don’t have an extra beer or wine bottles handy, maybe you have a tool laying around your house that you can use. Most tools have a good-sized handle that can be inserted. This sounds like you would need some condoms and lube to go with it though. [Read: How to masturbate – 14 sexy self-pleasure tips for women]

22. Remote control

Remote controls come in all shapes and sizes and perfect things to masturbate with. And believe it or not, some even vibrate, like the ones you use for video games.

It’s not exactly the same as a real vibrator, but it’s worth a shot if you have nothing else. Just remember to clean it first and use a condom because they have a LOT of germs on them.

23. Toilet plunger

Now, you might think that masturbation and toilets don’t really go together, but you could use the handle of the plunger if you really feel like it.

It may not be the best choice, but hey, to each their own. Just don’t forget to put a condom over it because you don’t want to get any splinters if it’s a wooden handle!
