SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY -- A how-to guide for better masturbation that hangs in Skidmore College bathrooms is steaming up the campus in more ways than one.

The Your-Body-is-a-Wonderland edition of The Racy Reader, published by the college's Center for Sex and Gender Relations, encourages masturbation as "a great way to relieve some of the stress that comes with classes, finals and the never ending homework." The poster shows a map of the body's erotic zones and offers suggestions for heightening self-pleasure.

Students created 300 copies of the "restroom reader" with the help of a college administrator. Fliers were placed in bathroom stalls in dorms, classroom buildings and the college library. The poster invites male and female readers to "think up your fantasies."

Like college kids need to be taught how to masturbate.

Hell, if anything such a “top down” order might inhibit the activity. :-D

Now, if I were a PARENT who sent a kid to this school, I seriously re-think continuation of my hard earned dollars to such an institution.

College students need help finding the fun parts on their own bodies?

This deserves a one-lifted-eyebrow stare of incredulity.

You work hard, save your money to send your kids to college and then they come home with a masturbation problem while the administrator has his giggles.

What’s next? Instruction how to chug beer? Or stare at boobies? Good lord. If you need instructions for these things, maybe college isn’t your thing.

Not just that, but a great way to develop that self-absorbed, atomistic, self-satisfied sarcastic ennui colleges have been known for turning out.

“An advocacy program staffed by trained students” - You mean you have to try out for this team?

LOL all! The jokes just about write themselves.

The instructions state: "Spend time thinking about what really gets you going, and spend your day thinking about situations that get you turned on..."

It seems to me when I was 18 or 19 years old it was all I could do to NOT think about what gets you turned on (women of course).
