Throwback wank

A masturbation session done when thinking about or looking at pictures of someone from your past. Could be an ex-girlfriend from a few years back, your high school geography teacher, or anyone you no longer interact with.

With no clubs open and no chances to meet new people, all James could do was knock out a few throwback wanks every night.
