2024 marks 15 incredible years of bators making BateWorld their home online!
In recognition of this milestone year, we’re making some big changes to benefit every BateWorld member, and sharing our thoughts on what it’s meant to devote our time online to destigmatizing masturbation. In our current climate, a mission to reduce the shame men hold about their bodies and their penises is an uphill battle.
BateWorld’s Story
BateWorld started in 2009 as a home-grown solution to the disappearance of smaller sites and forums serving men who weren’t afraid to tell the world they loved to masturbate. Today, we’re still a small team of LGBTQIA+ guys who practice what we preach. BateWorld was here for us when other sites removed us or vanished entirely, and we’re making sure BateWorld is around for the long haul.

Investing in your community
One of the best ways you can help ensure BateWorld is here for years to come is by supporting with a Premium membership

Help us Celebrate
From now until the end of the year, we’re collecting testimonials from BateWorld members who want to share what being part of this community has meant to them. Simply record a short message (landscape orientation, 4K resolution, and well lit) and upload it to your BateWorld profile with #BateWorld15 in the title. We’ll feature as many as we can on the site, The Bator Blog, and our social media accounts.
