You don't need an exposure kink to get off on a bit of attention.

What's the allure of masturbating in public?

Everyone loves jacking off, right? For most of us, it's generally a fairly solitary activity - something we do by ourselves, when we're alone.

But some guys really get off on masturbating in public. What's the appeal?

Grease up and let's get to grips with this important subject.

Why do some guys masturbate in public?

There's a difference between public exposure that harasses people or could be described as predatory, and the kink of getting your cock out and getting off in public.

Jacking off in public isn't for everyone, but guys that are into it report that it's a combination of the rush of exhibitionism and the risk of potentially being 'caught' by someone.

For most of us, getting naked in public is a bit of a taboo. Getting hard and jacking your cock in public is next-level.

Is it illegal to masturbate in public?

The relevant laws depend on where you are in the world - some places obviously have stricter rules than others. In general, if you get your cock out and start jacking off when there are other people around, then that's going to be breaking the rules.

It's a good idea to do a bit of research as to what the specific rules are in your part of the world, just so that you know where you stand.

For example, in some parts of the world, getting naked is only an offence if it’s causing offence or distress to other people. So, jacking off in a bathhouse is not a problem but if you start jacking off in the steam-room at your gym then you might have an issue if someone complains to the manager.

If you’re by yourself in the woods and it’s just you filming yourself to post some sexed-up clips to your Alt, then where’s the damage?

How to masturbate in public

A good starting point is to try and understand or pinpoint what your motivations are for wanting to masturbate in public.

It might be as simple as getting horny and needing to scratch that itch. If that’s the case, then just find your nearest toilet cubicle and get down to business.

However, if you’re spending time thinking about masturbating in public then there’s probably a bit more to it. What is it about masturbating in public that is pushing your buttons? Is it the exhibitionist thrill? Is it the risk of getting caught? Do you just need some fresh content for your subscribers?

Getting some answers to those questions will help to shape your plan of attack.

Scenario 1: I need some fresh content for my subscribers

This is probably the easiest scenario to tackle. If you need to film some content, then just plan out the scene. For example, you may want to film yourself getting naked and jacking off in the woods. From there, it’s just logistics – find the location, figure out the camera position, get naked and get to work.

Scenario 2: I like the rush I get from the risk of being caught

This scenario requires some spontaneity. The biggest thrills will come if you approach every public space with the thought in the back of your mind of – I wonder if I could jack off here?

What you’re wanting is to push the risks to the limit before actually getting caught.

If you’re jacking off in the gym changing rooms, you want to have your towel handy in case you hear footsteps approaching. If you’re down the back of the bus, you want to keep your rucksack close to strategically shield you.

Scenario 3: I like the exhibitionist thrill of jacking off in front of other people

This scenario is perhaps the trickiest to pull off as you need people to see you and you need to be fairly confident that they’re going to be cool with it. That’s going to be much easier if you’re at a gay beach or a cruising spot than if you’re whipping it out on a crowded train.

Getting people to watch you while you’re jacking off in public is the scenario most likely to land you in trouble with the law – if you’re showing your cock to someone and they’re not into it, they could easily point the authorities in the direction of your erection.
