It is a thing normal people do. Masturbating.

Why OMG? Women masturbate, as do men. Why are you surprised?

Unnecessary though. Yes all humans and animals do it. But why do artists love to show/discuss bodily functions? We get it. You want to destigmatize everything. You are just so cool that you dare to put it in a film. Please.

If I want to see someone masturbating I want to see it for real. Not some fake actress pretending to do it.

It's meant to show how overworked and deprived of pleasure she's been. I mean, come on, she literally hasn't been fucked in years.

Her husband died on the way to the hospital giving birth and was to much of a mess to date.

It's also meant to show how all-consuming her son is on her life/time.

This is lost on prudish type who find any mention of sexuality "unnecessary".
