Preschool masturbation

Preschool masturbation

Share

Link copied

Preschool masturbation is a childhood activity in which a child plays with his/her genitals (sex organs, private parts) as a way of comforting him/herself or for sexual arousal. Children usually discover masturbation by accident, and continue to do it because it feels good to them. Preschool masturbation is generally considered a normal habit.
