AleksandarNakic/E+/Getty Images I masturbate a lot, like four times a week. I’ll get all settled and comfortable, my head will clear and I’ll be feeling myself. Literally. Sometimes I do it in the shower. I’ve been known to have a Jill-off session on the sofa. Although I’m not a spontaneous person, there are times I wake up in the middle of the night and I’m in the mood… so that’s always fun.
