“But people go on confusing love with sex. Sex may be part of love, but sex is not love. Sex is just a physical, biological attraction, and in sex you remain two. In sex you are not concerned with the other, you are concerned with yourself. You are simply exploiting the other, you are simply using the other for some biological satisfaction of your own, and the other is using you. That’s why sexual partners never feel any deep intimacy. They are using the other. The other is not a person, the other is not a thou; the other is just an it, a thing you can use, and the other is using you. Deep down it is mutual masturbation and nothing else. The other is used as a device. It is not love, because you don’t care for the other.
Self Love is the Best Love: National Masturbation Month

That’s right: masturbation is one of the to practice self-care, relax and treat yourself to a quiet (or not so quiet) night in. And even if you’re a at playing a solo sex concerto, there’s always new ways to jazz up your technique and change up your me-time. Plus, May is Masturbation month — so it’s a particularly great time to celebrate.
This all totally makes sense when you think about of getting to know your body and what exactly will get you off in any given situation: You’re way more empowered to take control of your pleasure, whether you’re on your own , breaking in or making use of your shower head or something else . You also have the knowledge that you totally can control what makes you feel good and give it to yourself just-because. As sex coach tells SheKnows, “There are a myriad of benefits to masturbation including a feel good hormonal bath that the brain douses the body in, a deeper sense of self love, a better understanding of our own pleasure, and, well, amazing orgasms!” You really can’t go wrong.
