"My muscular mind may manufacture many meanings. My mouth may mutter mystic melodious mumblings, momentarily melting mountainous molehills, magically making mitigating methods. Mit'out more monkeybusiness, 'M' means 'Manager' and baseball practice starts today!"
--Linus to Charlie Brown, 1961
(In response to the question, "What does this 'M' on my cap mean?")
Seriously, if you mean "masturbate" and you are too "nice" to write the word, then I fear your life will be filled with sin. You may wonder if any action you ever do is a sin. This will drive you crazy, and certainly driving someone crazy is a sin.
On the other hand, if you mean "mitigate," Jesus says, "Blessed are the mitigators, for they shall be called the Children of God."
"Blessed are the managers, for they shall inherit the pension fund."
Blessed are the melon eaters, for they shall get plenty of carotene."
--And so on ad infinitum...

Jesus says that you even look at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. The same goes for women. Therefore, check your thoughts while you are performing this act. Very few if any of us could do this act without lusting over someone in our minds. Therefore, it probably is a sin and you should repent (apologize to God and stop doing this act). Don't rely on your own strength to do this but trust the Holy Spirit indwelt in every born-again believer to help you break this sin. Remember, when you are weak then He is strong.

If the next two letters are " ahem" (as) then no.But! Consider what your thinking about while this is going on.Is that what could possibly be a "ahem" naughty?

There are thousands of words in the English language that begin with m. Maybe you should be more specific.
Oh, and if you're talking about masturbation, then you need to grow up and write out the word. I promise God won't send you to hell for saying 'masturbation.'

Yes indeedy. Good Christians must not ahem.
They may, however, adjust their spouse's hem-and-haw.

well i answered a previous quest. about that and truthfully the act itself isn't a sin, its the thoughts before u do it that is, so if u keep your thoughts clean then it should be ok, u know not think lustful thoughts about anyone

You mean masturbate, sweetie? I don't think it is by itself; the danger lies in the various sins that it might lead to.
