Can I hurt myself if I masturbate using soap?
I masturbate in the shower about three times a week. I like to use the lather from soap or shampoo to get a better feel and to go faster. Can I hurt myself in any way by using those products?
Some things like soap that do not irritate other parts of the body may burn, or sting or cause allergic reactions when applied to genitals. Often the cause of irritation is perfumes or dyes. Simpler, cheaper products usually contain few of these.
Soap can dry the skin of your penis. Apart from that you are unlikely to hurt yourself if you're careful to wash the soap off when you've finished.
You'll know very quickly if your penis starts to feel dry or itchy after using soap products. If that happens, why not vary your masturbation location and try other lubricants like oil, butter (or margarine), talcum powder or a water based jelly.
