A doctor is warning men to please stop masturbating with banana peels.
The warning comes after the trend emerged on Reddit. According to guys familiar with the practice, the goo from the peel works as a lubricant and produces a similar feeling to receiving oral sex. Or something.
The sensation is purportedly enhanced if you heat the banana up in the microwave first.
One Redditer reports: âI have been doing it for years and itâs great. Itâs the closest thing there is to a BJ, trust me Iâve had hundreds of them.â
How about we take this to the next level?

Just to be super clear: Queerty does not encourage or endorse this behavior. And neither does Dr. Diana Gill of the online prescription service Doctor-4-u.
âYou could develop a rash and sores on the penis which can be painful and might lead to infection,â Gill cautions.
In the threat of sores and infections isnât enough to deter you, Gill says it could also cause an unexpected allergic reaction.
âA person with a banana allergy is more likely to be allergic to other substances such as latex or other fruits and vegetables,â she explains. âSo if youâre allergic to latex condoms you may also be allergic to banana skins.â
The banana trend emerged after it was recently revealed men have been putting toothpaste on their penises to last longer in bed, which experts also caution against.

Wow, who da’ thunk a banana peel could have this use. The stuff you learn reading Queerty, wow! What about flesh jacks and other masturbation toys? As for me and being UNCUT, my full FORESKIN provides me plenty of lube, and as a benefit, my orgasms are huge and EXPLOSIVE.

Love your response đ

First of all, it is extremely odd that you make every post of yours about foreskin, regardless of the article!!
Smegma is a combination of decomposed epithelial cells and perspiration (judging by its chemical composition). Obviously its evolutionary function is lubrication, but it is not produced from specific lubricating glands, as none have ever been found in research.
And if not cleaned regularly it stinks!
That’s why it is colloquially referred to as cheese.
Foreskins can be attractive or really ugly, just like every other part of the body. I’ve seen both.
As for “huge and explosive orgasms,” there is also no conclusive research showing uncut men have stronger orgasms. Clearly you have no way to objectively evaluate that in yourself, as you have never had someone else’s orgasms so stating yours are stronger than usual is meaningless. Interviews with men circumcised as adults for medical reasons are inconclusive. Some say their sexual response is reduced, some say it is unaffected. One Belgian study found a minimal difference in penile sensitivity, most studies find none.
The only reason gentiles began circumcising in the US is because Kellog, the cereal magnate (buying into the myth of decreased sexual response), was rabidly anti-masturbation and convinced people that it would curb the habit. Obviously it does not.

Lube and hand – keep it simple, keep it safe.

Do it! You wonât regret it. After you try it post a follow up. It was mind blowing.
Miles Crown
Well NOW you tell me. I just threw out two soft bananas last night… hmmm… did my husband take out the trash this morning….
Andy.R
OR, you could get a real BJ from someone! How about that crazy idea?!?
Smith David
@Andy.R..don’t be silly. That’s far too easy.
Max
who wants all that banana pith over their own junk?

If I didnât read this I would never have known about it but I did and I was tempted. Having said that, it felt beyond great and Iâll do it again and take my chances. At my dorm we always have bananas in the common area. Iâll be having a second go of it later today. Anyone not tempted now isnât normal.

I’ve never been a fan of combining food and sex in any way so I’m good.
Smith David
You guys, I’m being bullied by my neighbors two cats. I’m concerned that I shouldn’t hang in there and it most definitely won’t “Get Better”.

Toothpaste on your peen?
That’s one sure way to make sure your partner brushes his teeth… đ

I suspect this is exactly how toothpaste was discovered to have this effect. The things some guys have to do to encourage good hygiene! đ
IanHunter
Can we still screw a watermelon?
Doug
No explanation as to how this is done. Do you cut a hole in the top and go in toward the banana? Do you just use the banana skin and wrap it around your dick?
JessPH
Juts use the peel. Google “banana masturbation” and check out the videos. LOL

Anyone who tries this and gets a rash deserves to get a rash. Maybe itâll teach them a lesson in common sense.

I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and guys were doing it with a banana back then. Who knows how long this has been happening with horny teens. No one has died yet
temppublicname
Itâs no worse than using the whole banana for penetration, I suppose. đ
