Masturbation is clearly an activity for all seasons, but summer brings with it some opportunities for some season-specific solo fun. A man who has been following good penile care guidelines will be well positioned to take advantage of these opportunities and add a little more spice to his solo sex sessions.

Some of the suggestions below involve outdoor masturbation. It’s important, of course, to remember that public masturbation can get you in trouble with the police, so men are advised to limit their outdoor petting to private places.

cool it down

As every man knows, masturbation relies heavily on friction. Penis rubbing, whether vigorous or more practiced, creates friction of varying degrees, which in turn stimulates the sensitive nerves in the penis and produces the sensation that makes masturbation so irresistible. But friction also produces heat, and on a hot summer night, a little extra heat is the last thing a man needs.

If you are involved in a long pleasure session, remember to remain calm. Spread your legs apart (especially if you are lying down or standing up). If you’re sitting down, get up from time to time to let some of the midsection heat escape. If you’re masturbating outdoors, spreading your legs can allow a nice breeze to add a tickling sensation that also heightens pleasure.

Cool it down – again.

A more fun way to keep cool is to point a small fan directly at your crotch while you masturbate. Not only will this cool the balls down, but it can also add a little more stimulation which can be quite exciting.

Calm down, one more time.

Many men know that the masturbatory experience can be enhanced by a sudden change in temperature, usually by applying very cold water or ice wrapped in a towel to the balls near ejaculation. This feels even better and is even more appreciated during the dog days of summer.

Non-lubricating lotion.

Summer is the perfect time to walk outdoors in buckskin. Guys considering this should make sure to apply sunscreen to protect the sensitive skin on the penis. If he’s alone while outside, a man might be tempted to use that lotion for lubrication. Be aware, however, that sunscreen is not made for this purpose and if it enters the urethra it is likely to cause a burning sensation.

Be hoarse.

Corn on the cob is a summer treat, but don’t throw away the husks after husking the corn on the cob. Wrapping the shells around the penis provides a very different masturbatory sensation that some men find intensely pleasurable. For an even more unusual experience, keep the corn silk and use it during solo fun too.

Enjoy a melon.

Watermelons are also in full swing in the summer and can provide some juicy fun for a man. Just make a hole of the right size and depth in a melon, insert your penis and simulate intercourse. It’s a bit messy, but it definitely provides a kick.

Take the decisive step.

Masturbating in the shower is one thing; masturbating in a lake or ocean is quite another. The sensation that occurs when masturbating with the penis completely submerged in water is truly unique. (Again, be sure to enjoy this activity only when you’re alone, not while others are around.)

Of course, masturbation in the summer can still be practiced in the same way as in any other season of the year. Whatever the season and whatever the method, it pays to regularly use a top-tier penis health cream. (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) to maintain masculinity in top form. Those who masturbate frequently and/or roughly should definitely choose a cream with Acetyl L Carnitine, which helps protect the penis from desensitization due to excessive rubbing. A cream with L-arginine is also a good idea. L-arginine is an enzyme that helps create the circumstances in which the blood vessels in the penis can relax, opening them up for the blood flow that is key to a strong erection. Taking steps to maintain penis health will only improve your sexual encounters with yourself.
