This might sounds nasty but I seem to be sweating from my butt when I masturbate. A lot. I usually lay on my back and slip my penis through my boxer-briefs. My sweat has been so bad that it's going from my butt and on to my bed sheets. So when I'm done my boxer-briefs and my sheets are wet. It's becoming a problem. I didn't used to sweat this much. I just turned 18 a couple months ago, if that matters. I don't seem to sweat more in any other places, just my butt.

It's not unusual for guys to sweat from their face, back and butt during masturbation or during sexual activity of any type.

There's probably a biological reason for it and of course, the intense physical aspect may play a part. But it is considered normal.

maybe you can do it sideways? give it some air? like lay on your side instead of your back?

Not nasty, I'm pretty sure it happens to a lot of guys

I was on a forum once, looking up something I was curious about (I really can't remember where or what now) and I am almost CERTAIN there was a thread started about this topic. And there was an explanation of why this happens to some guys -- I remember them saying it was common but I think they had reasoning about why it happens (which if you have my type of personality, you are probably wondering why).....

nevermind, I just remembered what I was searching and how it was related.

This was happening to me for a short period of time, when I wasn't masturbating and seemingly for no reason. It had been shortly after I had initially started "exploring" that area of my body so I thought I had done something wrong. Either way it didn't last long, it was so short term I had forgot till I started writing this. But I do remember them mentioning that it happened often to some while masturbating. Maybe try google searching it -- I will check after and if I can find the link maybe I can get it to you some way.

Cheers

Don't worry it happens to me too. If it gets really bad you could just masturbate in the shower.

When I was around 19, my sweat gland went absolutely berserk. I'd sweat like a mofo even when I wasn't really being that active, or it wasn't that warm out. I'm assuming it was just some late part of the puberty process, because it eventually righted itself. I remember thinking I was going to live the next sixty years in a pool of my own sweat.

You might just consign some old piece of clothing (or go buy an old beach towel at a used clothing store), and put that under you when you masturbate.

It's a good thing!!! Really!!! There's a great book from the 60's or 70's called The Naked Ape that describes sexual acts in purely anthropological terms. Sweating during sex is completely normal. I believe that it actually releases pheromones that will intensify the sexual experience for your partner. My opinion is if you're not sweating, you're not doing it right or intensely enough.

Good memory- we have had a couple of threads about excessive sweating- usually underarm sweating but not specific to during sex, though. Sweating is a pretty common problem- it seems to run in families and often is more related to anxiety or social phobias. There are some people who do have a condition called hyperhidrosis that can have many different causes.

NOt to get off topic but for those who are interested in general sweating issues, the link is above.

OP here: Thanks everyone! I've started putting a towel under myself when I masturbate and it works well.

Yes, happens to me as well. Just in general though, it may have something to do with the fact my room is an oven (metaphorically), though.
