Ask The Batemaster: Dry Stroking
I know you say it’s good to stroke with lube, but I love dry stroking! I’m circumcised, and my penis is still really sensitive. What’s wrong with this picture?

I’m in my early 30s and still live with my loving parents, who are very religious. I masturbate a lot. We don’t talk about sex at all. Is it a good idea to try?
My best friend and I love to masturbate together. I know he does it a lot with other men online. How can I persuade him to stick to me as his only bate buddy?
Bruce, you often talk about self-pleasure as a form of loving yourself. Isn’t loving yourself just selfishness? I mean, at the expense of other people?
Word choices matter—sort of! This is a good question, and it brings up the basic issue of language and how the words we choose relate to things.
I'm straight and like to bate with other straight men. How can I hook up with other straight guys who only want to bate with me and not do other gay stuff?
Recently we stopped to mutually masturbate by a gorgeous waterfall. We were off the trail, but this couple came by and saw us. Could we get in trouble for this?
I drive cross-country a lot. During these long road trips, I love to masturbate, sometimes for hours while I drive solo. How safe do you think this is?
I still feel some guilt and shame after I come. Even though I know better—I should not feel this. Why? Why just then...?
My penis seems really small to me compared with lots of guys. I'd like to bate in person, but I’m afraid they’ll think I’m small. What can I do about this?
I love to kiss guys while we bate together. It’s so incredibly hot this way! But I also like sex with women sometimes. So. What IS this?
My buddies say masturbation is not real sex, that it’s only for losers… and I have to wonder, how do I handle this? How do I convince them how great it is?
