Is Masturbation Bad?

From: http://www.faqfarm.com/Q/Is_masturbation_bad_for_you

This can be considered a health question, or a moral question. As a health question it has one answer: "masturbation is normal and will not hurt you physically."

As a moral or psychological question it will generate different opinions. Here are answers from FAQ Farmers:

• No, it's not, and anyone who would tell you otherwise is either uninformed or mean spirited (or they're standing outside the bathroom door waiting to get in.)
  


• It all depends on your personal beliefs. Some religious people consider it bad for your spirit.



• Only if you are doing it to the detriment of other things in your life.



• There is nothing about masturbation that is physically bad for you. There are some religions or parts of some religions which look down upon it, but most thinking individuals realize that is jsut a scare tactic to gain control over others.



• No. It is definitley NOT bad for you. It is a medically proven fact that any sort of "normal" sexual gratification leads to a happier person as long as it doesn't interfere with you everyday life. In addition to purely psychological satisfaction, the human body produces endorphins - the hormone in charge of elevated spirits and positive perception of the environment. Prior to the culminating moment of orgasm, the brain emits a dose of oxytocin - the hormone of the posterior lobe of pituitary. Oxytocin results in the production of sedative endorphins - natural analogues of morphine. Moreover, an orgasm spurs the production of estrogen with women - the substance, which eases premenstrual pains.



• It's good for you and normal.
  


• Some of my best "O" I have given myself!
  


• There is nothing wrong with masturbation AT ALL! It's your body and you can do what you want with it as long as it is in private and doesn't affect anybody else. It relieves stress and tension, surely that's good for you? Happy self-loving!
  


• Agreed. It's all perfectly normal and good, clean fun. What's more, the fantasies you have during masturbation can provide useful pointers to your sexual orientation. :) SOOO, merry masturbation! Relax and enjoy!
  
  
  answer
  MASTURBATION IS NOT BAD FOR YOU.....IF YOU ENJOY THE PLEASURE OF DOING IT AND IT FEELS GOOD GO FOR IT

Personal Note: But don't u think it's lust & a sin since it's lust? Jesus said if a man lusts after a woman in the mind, he has already committed adultery. The bible says to refrain from sexual immorality. To sin sexually is to sin against one's body. Well the opinion is up to ppl. But bible clearly says it's sin even if it's only masturbation.
