I know this term only from a "South Park" episode in which it was made
quite clear that "finger-bang" is the activity that I've known as
"finger-fuck" since the Creation.

BTW, is the question re *male* terms for female masturbation? *All* the
terms that I know for this activity are used only by guys, in my
experience, with a single exception: "jill off." I came across it first in
a feminist essay somewhere - Widener Library? - somewhen - the '70's? - and
entirely missed the connection with "jack off" till *very* recently, about
2010, after I'd come across the term here and there on the Web.

I haven't checked either Google or the UD.

Vo women even *need* a special slang term for masturbation? Which reminds
me, there's the semi-unisex - I don't know whether women use it, but I've
come across used by men to refer to the relevant activity, irrespective of
the sex of the actor - clio, "bate."

Then there's "mistressbate," which I've just made up, this very moment.
