How to Masturbate Quietly & Discreetly

Whether you have roommates, still live at home, or are in some area that is less than private, you probably have come across a time when you are dying to masturbate but you aren't sure how to do it quietly. This is especially relevant if you use sex toys to masturbate, because sometimes they can be quite loud. So, read on for some ideas on how to masturbate quietly.

1. Use Your Fingers (Or Your Hand)

While it may seem fairly obvious that masturbating with your fingers (or hands if you have a penis) will seriously cut down on any extra sounds that a sex toy may make. Then, the only sounds you need to control are your own sounds of pleasure! This is good if you need a temporary fix, are doing some impromptu solo-play, or just don’t have any toys on hand, this is the most discreet way to play. But, we know that there's a good chance you're here because you want to know how to masturbate quietly with a toy, so check out the next tips if that's you!

2. Use a Cover-Up Noise

If you find yourself in a situation where you want to use a sex toy that is, let’s just say less than quiet, then you need to find ways to cover up the sounds. This is where cover noise comes in. Pretty much any “normal” extra noise can be a good cover for the sounds of sex toys. A television show with some action scenes, your favorite playlist, or just putting the radio on will do. Just keep in mind that some cover noise may not work as well, let’s say classical music with a lot of lows. Choose wisely!

3. Take a Shower With Your Toys

The bathroom is probably the most private place in the house. Not to mention running shower water can be a pretty handy cover for a buzzing buddy. So, why not take your waterproof toys into the shower with you? Hey, let’s face it, shower fun is, well, fun anyway. There are a variety of waterproof toys you can use to get dirty while you are getting clean. Or, you could opt for the shower fake out – but then people may wonder why you are never wet when you come out. Either way, the shower is a great place for playing on the sly.

4. Muffle The Sound With a Pillow

My personal favorite way to hide the sound of sex toy play is to muffle them with a plump pillow. This can be used if you are on your stomach or your back. Although, if you are laying on your stomach then you get the added buffer of your own body covering the sounds. On your back you can lay the pillow over your pelvis as you play. The best toys for this type of sly play are bullets or small vibrators. Obviously, if you are trying to thrust the toy internally your pillow may not stay put, but this is a good option if you're using a vibrator.

5. Buy a Quiet Sex Toy

Alright, I know this one might sound obvious to some of you, but a great option to cut down on masturbation noise is to simply buy a sex toy that's quiet. So, for you men out there, buy a masturbator that does not vibrate. Or, if you're using a prostate massager, again, opt for one that does not vibrate. That will save you a lot of worry of others hearing you. For those of you with a vagina, this can be a little bit trickier because chances are you really need the vibrations. But, there are vibrators out there that are made specifically to be quiet. So, just do your research before purchasing. Read about the toy, read the reviews and find a toy that's well known for being quiet. Below is our Paris Nubby Clit Vibrator, this is our best selling quiet vibrator in the store!

    Not uncommon to want sex later in life. Seem to get more excited and can do the job with your toys. Oh what fun I can enjoy.


  • Danni

    I have moments of wanting to discrete and other times, I just don’t care. Before being a crossdresser, I pleasured myself outdoors usually in the summer, especially when it is hot and humid…memorable moments. But now I have enjoyed vibrators, I have done it with others watching me, and by myself with no care of the throbbing of my toy, and my orgasmic moans.

    I love the the feeling, and when I do love myself with my toys, I love what it does to me and for me.


  • Mr Dicky

    I have a 14 inch cock and I love to have it sucked off or jerked off. When I cum it’s a lot I like to come on my partner’s tits and her pussy I masturbate at least two times a day with or without her is that normal


  • Surfer Dude

    66 years old male, I have masterbated since learning how at 12 years old. Masturbating as a teen was ussauly with friends I camped and in campsite showers. Masturbating with a friend in shower was more of the excitement of getting caught. That thrill is fast way to cum and pleasure my self. When I started dating my dates would try to jerk me off. Typically had to give tips to hit my p spot. As I got older and with various partners, I would ask them to let me cum on face or tits. Realized my partner wanted to cum we slowly came to have best climax when in public. Parks, beach, campgrounds, school, plus church. Just learned to keep the explosion quieter. Life is good
