24 of the spiciest emoji for when you definitely mean masturbation

May is National Masturbation Month, and we’re celebrating with Feeling Yourself, a series exploring the finer points of self-pleasure.

There’s something inherently a little silly about using tiny cartoon images to simulate sexual acts. 

But we all know the usual sexting suspects by now — eggplant emoji, peach emoji, pointing finger at OK hand symbol emoji. Yawn. Where are the quality masturbation emoji? 

The world’s most recognizably phallic veggie may still reign supreme, but it’s time to retire the ol’ eggplant for a while. It’s time to use other elongated food items — may we suggest the banana? Or maybe a bit of meat? 

And there are also so many options for vaginal masturbation! All you need to do is get a little creative.  

To help you out, we’ve compiled some emoji that are perfect for subtly sexting your date, having a laugh amongst friends, or quickly alerting your roommate to steer clear of your room for the next hour.
