Taylor Momsen 'gives sex advice'

Taylor Momsen has revealed that she thinks all girls should masturbate to prepare themselves for sex.

The 17-year-old singer and actress said that many girls have bad sexual experiences because they do not know enough about their bodies.

She told The Guardian: "I'm a promoter of masturbation. Don't sleep around - learn yourself first.

"Guys do, but girls don't. And that's why girls have so many bad experiences. But you can know your body, know yourself, know what feels good."

Momsen explained that girls should not fear sex because it is part of "human nature".

She added: "You don't have to give yourself away to have sexual relevance. Because I don't think sex is something people should be afraid of. It's part of human nature, so I don't think it should be shameful - particularly for girls and young girls."
