My girlfriend came into the bathroom while I was masturbating. First I didnt notice she was then and then I thought should I stop or keep going. She has lower sex drive than me and she kind if knows I do it in the shower when she says no.  Its a man's right to choose if he wants to masturbate in the shower correct?

Yes—you generally have the right to masturbate privately, including in the shower. Being in a relationship doesn’t mean your girlfriend gets to decide whether you can masturbate, and a mismatch in sex drive can make masturbation a perfectly reasonable outlet.

The important distinction is privacy and consent. Once you realized she was in the bathroom, continuing while she was present could involve her in a sexual situation she hadn’t agreed to participate in. At that point, the considerate move would usually be to stop or ask whether she was comfortable with you continuing.

So: **your body and masturbation are your choice; exposing someone else to the sexual act is where their consent matters too.** Her saying no to sex also doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong by taking care of yourself afterward.

My boyfriend came into the bathroom while I was masturbating. First I didnt notice he was then and then I thought should I stop or keep going. He has lower sex drive than me and he kind if knows I do it in the shower when he says no.  Its a womans right to choose if she wants to masturbate in the shower correct?

Yes. Masturbating is a normal form of sexual autonomy, and your boyfriend having a lower sex drive doesn’t mean you have to suppress your own sexuality when he doesn’t want sex.

The important distinction is **your right to masturbate vs. involving someone else without their consent**. If you’re alone in the shower, it’s entirely your choice. If he unexpectedly walks in, you haven’t done anything wrong by already being masturbating. Once you know he’s there, though, whether you continue openly becomes partly about shared boundaries and his comfort too—just as you’d want your boundaries respected if the situation were reversed.

It may help to talk outside the sexual moment: “Sometimes when you’re not interested in sex, I masturbate, including in the shower. I want to know how you feel if you accidentally walk in—would you rather I stop, or are you comfortable with it?” That lets masturbation remain yours without turning differences in libido into shame or conflict.
