In the early nineties, I was very young and very poor. I didn’t have a lot of toys and or attend fancy hobby classes. Our living room, kitchen and bedroom were encompassed in one tiny room, in a house that we shared with a family of six.
My mom was a ‘room wife’ and my dad was a government servant – the conscientious kind, which meant no extra income through bribes.
Maybe it was the lack of resources, lack of friends or grahon ka dosh (I am a rabid Scorpio), but at an age when kids discover the alphabet and develop their taste buds, I discovered orgasms... by myself.
There is scientific research to prove that children can develop an interest in their bodies and sexual functioning from as early as infancy. Each child is unique and develops at a different rate. So while I began playing with myself at five, my friends played with just dolls well into their teens. Some others still don’t play with themselves.
