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. You have the right to masturbate and to make choices about your own body, including when your partner isn’t in the mood for sex.

The part worth separating out is **your masturbation** from **what happens when he enters the room**. If he unexpectedly walks in, you don’t automatically have to stop because masturbation itself isn’t a betrayal or something you need permission for. But once you know he’s there, it becomes a shared-space/consent question too: if continuing means he’s being made to watch or participate sexually when he doesn’t want to, his boundaries matter as well.

Given that he already knows you sometimes masturbate in the shower when he says no to sex, that can actually be a healthy way of handling a libido mismatch: he gets to say no without pressure, and you still get to take care of your own sexual needs. Neither person’s sex drive has to dictate the other person’s body.

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 get to choose whether to masturbate in private. Being in a relationship, including one where your partner has a lower sex drive, doesn’t mean you lose bodily autonomy or need permission to masturbate.

The important distinction is **privacy versus involving her**. If you’re alone in the shower and she happens to walk in unexpectedly, you haven’t done anything wrong simply by masturbating. Once you notice she’s there, though, whether you keep going can become a consent/boundary issue if she’s now being made an unwilling audience. A reasonable move is to check her reaction or say something like, “Do you want privacy, or are you okay with me continuing?”

And her saying no to sex does not mean you shouldn’t masturbate afterward. Masturbation can be a healthy way to handle mismatched desire without pressuring your partner. The reciprocal point is that her “no” to partnered sexual activity should remain completely respected, just as your choice about your own body should be respected.
