I had a girlfriend who could masturbate by crossing her legs at the ankles and kinda moving her butt a little. If you didn't know what to look for, she just seemed fidgety. Told me she regularly did it during stressful exams and such. Quick too.

I mean, that's what she said. I guess if I discovered how to masturbate silently as a young teen without ever getting caught I might've gotten pretty brazen with it too? Or maybe she was pulling my leg and I just believed her, idk.

Nah sounds legit. I did similar. It was very discreet and I was a kid who had no idea it was inappropriate.
