Not a damn thing wrong with it.

The Bible never specifically mentions masturbation or states whether masturbation is a sin. There is no question, however, as to whether the actions that lead to masturbation are sinful. Masturbation is the end result of lustful thoughts, sexual stimulation, and/or pornographic images. It is these problems that need to be dealt with. If the sins of lust and pornography are forsaken and overcome - the problem of masturbation will become a non-issue.


The Bible tells us to avoid even the appearance of sexual immorality (Ephesians 5:3). I do not see how masturbating can pass that particular test. Sometimes a good test for whether something is a sin or not is whether you would be proud to tell others what you had just done. If it is something you would be embarrassed or ashamed about if others found out, it is very likely that it is a sin. Another good test is to determine whether we can honestly, in good conscience, ask God to bless and use the particular activity for His own good purposes. I do not think masturbation qualifies as something we can be "proud" of or can genuinely thank God for.



The Bible teaches us, "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God" (1 Corinthians 10:31). If there is room for doubt as to whether it pleases God, then it is best to give it up. There is definitely room for doubt in regards to masturbation. "For whatsoever is not of faith is sin" (Romans 14:23). I do not see how, according to the Bible, masturbation could be considered glorifying to God. Further, we need to remember that our bodies, as well as our souls, have been redeemed and belong to God. "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's" (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). This great truth should have a real bearing on what we do and where we go with our bodies. So, in light of these principles, I would definitely have to say that masturbation is a sin according to the Bible. I do not believe that masturbation is pleasing to God, avoids the appearance of immorality, or passes the test of God having ownership over our bodies.

There is nothing wrong with masturbation. The Bible says a man should not "spill his seed," which is a reference to ejaculating outside a woman's body, for the simple reason that, at the time the Bible was written, it was a wide held belief that semen was actually the entire baby, and that when it was inside a woman, it would become a child... like baking a cake in the oven.

If people use the Bible as their belief on masturbation, then they should also be against using condoms, since that allows the semen to die without reaching the vagina. They should also be against NOT ejaculating on a regular basis into women (aka being promiscuous) because semen that isn't used get broken down and reabsorbed into the body, thus killing the sperm.

Masturbation is a grave sin. Human sexuality is a great gift from God. It is for fostering the love between husband and wife and for procreation. Whenever it is used for anything less than these two reasons, it is sinful. That's why the word 'masturbate' is used to describe this action. The word itself means ' to abuse or misuse'. Sexuality is meant to be given as a total gift of yourself to your spouse; masturbation is a very selfish act.

Masturbation is a natural human instinct. It's self pleasure aka self gratification. It means that you love yourself. If you ask any psychiatrist or psychologist they will tell you the same thing. If you feel guilty about it it's because of your religion.

Normal. Ignore the Christians calling you perv (you see they repress their sexuality only to have it explode elsewhere in
life). Asking this in the R&S section is asking for trouble though.

it's quite difficult when you have claws, but yes, for humans it's harmless. Just don't forget to wipe the keyboard afterwards.
