stroker
One who caresses
A stroker is someone who strokes—literally, one who moves a hand smoothly over a surface.
In slang, stroker refers to someone who masturbates (from *stroke* meaning to manipulate the penis).
It also describes a sycophant or flatterer: someone who strokes egos rather than bodies.
In automotive contexts, a stroker is an engine modified to increase piston stroke length for greater displacement.
