オナニーをする Explanation: This is the colloqiual term in common use. I believe the previously submitted answer is the 'textbook' form. Also, "sex" is colloqiually referred to as エッチ or abbreviated as simply "H". All of these usages are very common in speech and nonformal writing.

しこる Explanation: In reference to both men and women, Mark's answer オナニー(Onnani)would work. The term マスターベーション is a term that I've seen in Japanese print. More terms are available for male masturbation. These are closer to something like 'beat off' or 'jack off': しこる (shikoru) 千摺り(せんずり)をかく (Senzuri wo kaku) シコシコする (shikoshiko suru) There is also a term 自慰, (Jii) which is more like 'self-stimulation' Hope this helps. I went to Highschool in Japan. This topic came up too frequently among my classmates. |
