You’re lying in bed, feeling bored and horny. As usual, on these days, you look for sexual release. However, your girlfriend isn’t around, you have no toys available, and doing it with your hand is now boring.
Now you see that pillow near you, wondering how you can beat your meat with it.
You search the internet, but there’s only a little information available. Most guides are about pillow humping for women, and you are a man. But don’t worry. I got your back bro.
In this article, you will learn how to pillow hump like a pro and walk away with a grin on your face.
Do Men Hump Pillows?
I know what’s going on in your head. Although there are tons of guides on pillow humping on the internet, most are focused on female readers, but what about male readers? Because of this, you can’t help but think, ”Is it normal for men to hump a pillow?”
The short answer is yes. Many men do it, but not everyone. It all boils down to your personal preference.
As for one Reddit user, ithrewitontheground9, he said that he just couldn’t do it the traditional way as his hand didn’t feel good on his manhood. As for others, they have their own reasons. The common ones are:
Curiosity and Self-Exploration
Pillow humping often starts during adolescence. Teens try to figure out what feels good for them, driven by curiosity about their bodies and sexual pleasure. As a teen, you’re not entirely free to explore your sexuality with a partner, so this is the safest way to explore yourself.
Simulating Having Sex With a Partner
Compared to your hand, having a pillow, particularly a body pillow to hump with, gives you that feeling as if you’re having someone against your body. The pressure and friction can mimic penetrative sex.
Stress Relief and Relaxation
Pillow humping is a form of dry humping.
WebMD describes dry humping as a form of masturbation where the person grinds against an object or another person’s body without penetration. But in this case, you’re doing it by grinding a pillow.
Because it’s a form of masturbation, you’ll get the same benefits from it as well. No sexually transmitted infection (STI), no fluid exchange, and no pregnant girlfriend, just your own wetness.
Form of Foreplay or Long-Distance Sex
Many men also do this with their partners as a form of foreplay. It can add spice by giving each other a live show or maintaining excitement while they’re away.
So, if you feel like humping that pillow, go for it. It’s completely normal. But if you want the best experience, read on.
How to Have a Comfortable Experience During Your Session
Of course, if you’re gonna do it, you want everything prepared, and that includes your environment and yourself. It ensures that no one will disturb you and that you will have the best experience possible.
1. Prepare Your Space
Create a stimulating environment. First, make sure that your door is locked. You don’t want someone barging in catching you humping your pillow. Second, set the mood. You can do that by dimming the lights.
If you want, you can also have your visuals prepared, your computer, television, or phone to watch something naughty and amp up your mood.
If you’re doing it with a partner, ensure that both of you are comfortable.
2. Be in a Comfortable Outfit
You can go completely naked if you want to, just double-check if that door is locked. If you want the best experience, try clothing with a thick material, like jeans. You can try different clothes to see which provides the best experience.
3. Use Lube
It is up to your personal preference, but it’s highly recommended since too much friction can injure or irritate your skin. Choose the right lube that’s best for you.
4. Cover Your Pillow With Pillowcases
You don’t want to use your pillow as a masturbator and then put your face on it when you sleep, right? Unless that’s your thing. No judgment here. And of course, unless you slit it for a penetrative experience.
But if you just want to hump it on the surface like a gorilla, you need to cover that pillow with multiple layers of pillowcases to protect it from bodily fluids.
5. Use Toys
Just a pillow can do the job, but if you realize that pillow humping is your thing now and that you would want to enhance the experience, using a toy can take it to the next level.
6. Explore Erotic Content
You can watch porn, listen to erotic audio, or read adult magazines for an immersive experience. If you don’t have these around, use your imagination.
7. Talk Dirty
If you are with a partner, you can give each other a live show or talk dirty while you do it.
8. Enjoy the Experience
This is why you need to ensure that your environment is properly set. You don’t want to do it while worrying if somebody might barge in. You also don’t want to hold back because you’ve just realized all the mess you can possibly make when you’re about to climax.
Here are other suggestions by Mr. Underwearbulge
Tips on Techniques and Positions for Maximum Pleasure
Although there’s no exact angle or position to hump your pillow properly, of course, I have suggestions that you can try and see which works best.
Missionary Style
Position the pillow under your pelvis and lie on top of it. Thrust forward mimicking the missionary position. You can also slit the pillow for a penetrative experience. Adjust the height of the pillow to find which position is the most comfortable for you.
Spooning Position
This is like spooning a partner, except you replace your partner with a pillow.
What Are the Best Pillows to Use for Humping
Although you can choose the pillow texture and firmness that work best for you, there are a few considerations you might want to check out.
Water-Resistance
Because you’re gonna make your pillow wet, don’t use a pillow filled with grains, unless you’re planning to dispose of it often. When you get these pillows wet, mold may grow over time.
Ease of Cleaning
You might want to consider using a pillow that you can easily toss in the laundry after use.
Texture
Avoid pillows with rough fabric textures because grinding against it can cause friction burns and might even injure your penis. If you want, you can place a soft towel or cloth over it to soften the texture.
Also, it’s best to use a firm pillow, because it will give you the best experience.
Size
You can go for a throw pillow, a regular pillow, or a body pillow. It’s up to you to choose depending on the position you want to do.
Safety and Hygiene Tips
Although it’s generally safe to hump a pillow, you should still do it with precautions. Consider the following safety and hygienic measures.
Clean up
After every session, toss the pillowcases in the laundry. If the pillow itself is washable, the better. Toss it in the laundry too.
Use a Clean Pillow
Don’t use other people’s pillows. Treat a masturbation pillow like a toothbrush or underwear. Using other people’s pillows can put you at risk of infections.
Use a Lube
As mentioned, too much grinding or friction can irritate your skin. Therefore, consider using lube. If you don’t like it messy, take a break instead.
