Masturbation may not be considered NSFW.
As a part of a social sex-periment, an enterprising Spanish porn company allowed its staff to pleasure themselves on the office —with the lucky employees claiming it improved their attitude and productivity. A video detailing their stimulating workplace experiences is blowing up online.
“I feel more balanced in my workflow,” Yeraldine, a social media manager with the adult entertainment firm Erika Lust Movies, told Jam Press of the groundbreaking measure.
Porn purveyor and director Erika Lust implemented the salacious policy last 12 months after noticing that her employees were “agitated” and “performing with less energy” as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
In accordance, she allowed the firm’s 36 employees a half-hour self-gratification session each day — and arrange a masturbation station outfitted with lube, sex toys and screens streaming the corporate’s products. There’s even a bed to reinforce the effect.
“Once I announced the brand new work profit, I’d say my team was pretty amazed at the thought!” porn boss Lust told Jam Press.

The pleasurable — if awkward — perk appears to be paying dividends.
“It was weird at first – it took me a while to settle into scheduling some pleasure time during my work schedule, but now I feel like I can’t live without it!” said Yeraldine. “I feel more balanced in my workflow, and this definitely helped me to have a more relaxed approach to talking about masturbation with other people, even outside the office.”
“The half-hour masturbation breaks literally modified my approach to work life,” said Avril, the corporate’s in-house sexologist. “Who said that we cannot open up an area for pleasure in our workplace?
“I feel more focused and relaxed, and amazed at how my colleagues’ eyes sparkle when getting back from their solo sessions,” she added.

“Masturbation makes you are feeling more relaxed and focused, it’s good for creativity and increases your drive to get things done,” said company boss Erika Lust (pictured). “It helps to decompress and relieves tension and stress.

Others found it the right solution to sexorcize their emotional demons.
“Knowing that your boss cares about your mental health makes an enormous difference in the best way you come to work each day,” said Deborah, a content manager. “I like a workplace where pleasure and wellness are taken seriously!”
‘Principally, it’s the right medicine for a stressful day at work.’
Inside a 12 months, Lust said she noticed a serious improvement in office morale, observing: “I’d definitely say it’s worked a treat. It’s good to see the relaxed faces of my employees coming back to work after their sessions.”
Indeed, studies have shown that the pastime can alleviate anxiety and depression. Meanwhile, UK psychologist Mark Sergeant said in 2017 that a masturbation break could be “very effective at work” and a “great solution to relieve tension and stress.”
“Masturbation makes you are feeling more relaxed and focused, it’s good for creativity and increases your drive to get things done,” seconded Lust. “It helps to decompress and relieves tension and stress. Principally, it’s the right medicine for a stressful day at work.”

Employees even described how they go about their business of their video, with one woman detailing how her “first time was with a pillow.”
Other pleasure-seekers even demonstrated their self-titillation technique on a pillow modeled after a vagina. “And after I’m very excited, I put it inside,” explained one woman while simulating the solo sex act on the plush visual aid. One in every of her male compatriots used a dildo as an instance how he masturbates using “one or two hands.”
“I masturbate and I believe lots of individuals who say they don’t masturbate are probably just ashamed to confess it,” said one person in reference to those that are prudish concerning the practice.

After all, day by day masturbation isn’t mandatory at the corporate. Nevertheless, Lust hopes that, together with easing workplace tension, the exercise will help society shed the stigma surrounding masturbation.
“Within the sex-negative culture we still live in, I see this as a political act,” she said, adding that her employees feel like they’re a part of a “greater, relevant change.”
“What I like essentially the most about working in Erika Lust is that we dare to push boundaries, and the masturbation breaks are the proof of that,” said Sara, who works in PR and media relations. “I wish to think that we’re changing the culture of labor through pleasure, and that’s incredibly powerful!”
Perhaps Matthew McConaughey’s self-pleasuring banker from “The Wolf of Wall Street” was right all along.
