Billie Eilish Explains Why She Should Have A 'Ph.D. In Masturbation'

Billie Eilish had some serious thoughts on sex and self-pleasure in a new interview with Rolling Stone.

I should have a Ph.D. in masturbation, she told the magazine, where she went into great detail about why her me-time matters.

TMI, but self-pleasure is an enormous, enormous part of my life, and a huge, huge help for me, the Bad Guy singer shared. People should be jerking it, man. I cant stress it enough, as somebody with extreme body issues and dysmorphia that Ive had my entire life.

Eilish told Rolling Stone how masturbating in the mirror has helped her tackle those issues, saying that watching myself feel pleasure has been an extreme help in loving myself and accepting myself, and feeling empowered and comfortable.

Partly because its hot, but it also makes me have such a raw, deep connection to myself and my body, she said. And have a love for my body that I have not really ever had.

I got to say, looking at yourself in the mirror and thinking I look really good right now is so helpful.

Elsewhere in the interview, Eilish said talking about sex is literally [her] favorite topic. 

The What Was I Made For singer told Rolling Stone she finds the subject more empowering than salacious, saying, People are so uncomfortable talking about it, and weirded out when women are very comfortable in their sexuality and communicative in it.

I think its such a frowned-upon thing to talk about, and I think that should change.
