What about the opposite? Does anyone wear a mouth spreader? Seems to be popular enough on Japanese vids ...

Most likely so nobody recognizes them!

Not to knock the idea, but what does it add?

@rigel added medical aspect I guess. Eh maybe it doesn't add anything

It provides anonymity. Sort of like during Covid-19.

I actually liked the anonymity a facemask provided and not to be vain, but looking at myself in a mirror it made me look less old and covered my mouth/teeth, not my best feature. I felt more confident in a mask I could 'hide' behind.

Seeing others in a mask, I can take or leave it when it comes to erotic aspects. But I think having a mask on makes me feel freer in openly experiencing sexual activities.

I don't especially use one when by myself though.

Not quite sure what an n95 mask is but I sometimes like to wear an older type tight fitting rubber anesthesia mask with a soft re-breather bag when I masturbate.

No I do not. Masks do not do anything for me.

I do use N95 when I clean the barn or any other dirty area. I wear a painters respirator when working outside. The cold has an affect on my lungs and there is just enough warmth that the breath gets warmed up.

@Tingue77,

Retired BC US MD here. No, I do not use a surgical, N95 or other medical mask while masturbating. Interesting wide-ranging group of answers so far. Not a criticism by any means, but just my curiosity - why did you ask the OP question in the first place? What brought it to your mind and what were you thinking the members might reply? Current influenza season plus COVID-19 still being around? Thank you,

Eric

P.S. Since the prior answers ranged from practical to medical to fetishistic or kinky, anything you were originally thinking probably makes sense.

Wearing a mask while masturbating never crossed my mind... also @ericmacson: what you said below are my thoughts too.

Mentally imagining being a surgeon might be a reason to wear a mask. To enhance the feeling of realism a bit.

@agracier I don't get it - maybe I'm bit slow. How would imagining being a surgeon enhance or relate to masturbation??

I don't know specifically. I mean, people imagine all kinds of things while masturbating, like fondling feet during which you might fool around with some high-heeled shoes or something. Or men masturbating while wearing female clothing to enhance the experience.

Say your thing is surgery, then putting on a mask might enhance the imagination of whatever type of surgery you imagine going on.

I was positing it like a thought experiment ... what might a mask enhance?

Bingo!!

I get it now. A mask could be a Fetish object that turns you on. Hadn’t thought of that way.

That's a good way of putting it: it becomes a fetish object. Short and simple.

I bet that masks as such are more frequent than prior to covid. In fact, I do see quite a lot of imagery made with masks on and nothing or little else. Especially in Japanese made porn material.

If I wore a mask during orgasm, I would probably hyperventilate! I definitely don’t see a positive side.

That's true, I probably would hyperventilate too, but it is probably like the erotic asphyxiation phenomenon. Apparently deprivation of oxygen heightens the sensations of an orgasm.

So, in the end, using a mask might be safer than the methods we read about, like tying a rope or choker around the throat.

I've read of celebrities dying with a rope or bag around their heads, but not with a mask. So, aside from the fantasy aspect playing out in the head, there is also the oxygen deprivation issue that heights orgasms.

Why would a mask cause you to receive less oxygen? I wear a painters type double filter respirator whenever I work outside in the cold. I have never experienced any hyperventilation with that. Shoveling/pushing snow or moving wood around can be strenuous.

Besides hyperventilating turns some on. Pushes them over the sexual edge.
