This was a case of deliberate premature ejaculation, not masturbation. Or was it a case of withdrawal-- a form of birthcontrol (albeit a not very effective one), ie, malthusiamism?
Wasn't it the Shakers who disappeared because they eschewed intercourse? They probably never heard of Malthus!
There is a small community south of Portland, Oregon called Wanker's Corners. When the power goes out there, they fire up their generators made by the Onan Corporation! Yes, there really is such a company!
Now, to quote the Biblical Onan, "Oh! Oh! I'm coming!" Onan ejaculated.

Ipse is an emphatic adjective in Latin and means amongst other things "the very" or "the ____ itself".

Bill protests: Dear CK: are you suggesting a gangbang? For shame!
I don't remember saying that you should get a grip on each other.

I had not heard this word, so googled it. In amongst the lists of other words for the practice (makes perfect) was the phrase "ménage à un" which caught my eye. [All sorts of other phrases rather than "caught my eye" sprang unbidden to my mind but were all too apt]

someone recently coined the word 'ipsonym', naming the thing, itself.

"onani" certainly means wanking in japanese.
there's also the action: why does gesturing an enthusiastic wank mean that the other person is crapping on?
and why SHOULDN'T jackie look?

In reply to:
Why shouldn't Jackie look?
Please! Jackie is a southern lady. Ladies don't know anything about such things. The details of horsebreeding, who's laying up with whom around town, bastard relatives and exactly how they came to be begotten, and such like, yes, but not wanking.

Ipse is an emphatic adjective in Latin Emphatic, or reflexive? I thunk it was the latter. Being a solipsistic wanker, I doubt that what you say on it will matter, since only I exist anyway!
