is it just wanking? If so, why are people talking about it

Edit - turns out that yes, it is just wanking lol

Edit Edit - honestly, I find it strange that so many of these things have special words. 'edging' , 'creampie' , and now 'gooning'. These are all very mundane activities, lads

I predicted that when the word “gooning” goes mainstream most people will think it just means “jerking off” and I still think this is the most likely outcome. Legibility confers high-level recognition but not empathy.
