Unless there's a hidden commandment that says: Thou shalt not spanketh the monkey

...or some other scripture, I guess its fine.

no, i don't think it is but if you feel guilty about it, don't do it

It could've been 1 of the 5 commandments that Moses accidentally dropped. [/MONTYPYTHON]

That happened in History of the World, too.

You'll go blind and get hairy palms. Just kiddin. Masturbation is very healthy and also the safest form of sexual gratification. Depending on your preferences, you can get creative and invite your partner to join you. I personally prefer to be alone. Everyone does it and if they claim not to, 98 percent of the time they are lying.

Maybe if you're a guy. It's very common for girls not to mastu|2bate, especially if they're - whaddyacallit - good girls. Highly doubt good girls make up only 2% of our population - they were ubiquitous at my high school.

I'm gonna have to disagree, girls do it, they don't talk about it like men do. I have loads of experience around woman, gay and straight, and I've heard enough to know for a fact that most woman lie.

Yeah, well. I don't.

And many of the girls I know, for that matter. We like books and anime better.

Well, I used to think girls were icky had cooties, but I grew up...

most girls don't m@sturbate though. not like they never have or ever will, its more like why do it yourself when someone else can do it for you?

That's just a cover...

Besides, guy STILL do it, even when they HAVE someone to do it for them. On impulse, and/or as a matter of convenience.

According to the Catholic Church it is a sin because you can't reproduce from it. They made that rule up before they knew that there are 500,000,000 sperms in every ejaculation (and a woman makes about 200 eggs in her lifetime) so no matter what happens, the vast (and I mean VAST) majority of sperms and eggs are going to miss out.

More to the point, they say it is a sin because it's a pleasure they can't control otherwise.

It is a sin. You are giving into the pleasures of the flesh, and you are obviously lusting after someone, lusting is also a sin(1 Thessalonians 4:3-8). Take a look at some scripture and maybe talk to a youth minister to get some advice(: PRAY!!! God is there, he will listen!

Thanks to gtowncrystal for expressing so clearly what's wrong with religion. A youth minister! ROTFL! Like he doesn't w nk himself silly too (but with LOTS of guilt), whatever he says.

hugh7 if you are truly savedand want a relationship with JESUS CHRIST who died for you and not just in it for religion a good youth minister is going to know that it is wrong. God bless and I encourage you to take a look at some scripture(:

I am not lost and have no need of being saved thank you very much. No do I want a relationship with anyone who died for me. (I consider the Atonement a disgusting doctrine - like whipping boys in the Middle Ages, or scapegoats in ancient times. How could you trust anyone who killed his only son?)

Calling lust a sin is creating a thoughtcrime. We are attracted to whom we are attracted to, and denial is futile. The Epistles to the Thessalonians were written by Paul and Sylvanus and Timothy. Who the heck was Sylvanus and why should we listen to him?

If God made masturbation a sin, why did He/She/It put our hands at just the right level for it?
