Is there any good reason why you shouldn't masturbate, other than religious beliefs? Also, if it is sinful to masturbate, why do we have such a strong need to do it? If it's so godly to refrain from sexual activity, then why are there so many religious leaders out there that are molesters?

There is nothing objectively wrong with masturbating. It's a perfectly normal way to relieve sexual tension, and monkeys have been fapping long before humans even existed.

By the way, I just found these two articles, and they're both interesting reads:
Traditional Sexual Ethics
Buddhist Sexual Ethics
Until you get married and find out that's one of the few joys to have left in life.
Alright, I'll just start a new topic on H/A that only deals with my personal problem.
Religious beliefs aren't good reasons, last time I checked.
And no, there isn't a good reason. If you are in the same room as me and I fucking know that you're rubbing one out, god damn it I will be pissed. And confused at your lack of social grace. But I am not a confrontational person in this respect, as history has shown.
No need!
Also yeah, you're not going to go blind or deaf or grow hairy palms or anything.
Pretty much every male has masturbated, and most do it regularly. Females not quite as high a percentage, but it's not harmful at all to either gender and is generally quite enjoyable.

Then when your married you're allowed to have five-way, latex apparelled, sadist, abusive sexual intercourse that involves a midget and his donkey.
Stat.
*cough*
I remember reading a poll in Scientific American or something to the effect that 89% of men and something like 65% of women said they masturbate.
*shrug*
Hitler fapped, Ghandi fapped, Stalin fapped, Neil Armstrong fapped... in space.
So 19% of men and 35% of women are liars.

My girlfriend's developed a huge crush on David Tennant. She keeps showing me YouTube clips of him in random scenes from random shows and going, "Ooooh! Isn't he cute?!?"
I guess he is pretty hot, isn't he?
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
The rest were too busy masturbating to comment.
That is because masturbating girls are hot.
...
I had to teach my ex so much crap.
I think you mean 11.
And I don't doubt that at least a couple percentage of those people are telling the truth.
Ghandi was really weird about it. I'm almost certain he didn't fap. He practically suffered a nervous breakdown when he found that he had a nocturnal emission one time.
My buddy asked him one day what "BATTLE M" meant and the dude just stammered and said, "Um, it's a bad personal habit I'm trying to kick."
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
How does that even work
Does he drop trou and begin, and then looks down at his wrist and goes, "Ohhhh, right!" and stops?
Because frankly
I don't generally look down
It was that good?!
From what I remember from my human sexuality classes it's still not as prevalent as with men though, particularly in the southern and east asia, the middle east and the northern areas of Africa, or for first-generation immigrants from those countries/cultures. I think (although I'm trying to find this figure and failing) that less than 50% of middle eastern women surveyed had ever masturbated, and the amount that had ever actually had an orgasm, period, was even lower.
Oh, yeah, I don't doubt that. The social stigma/feeling of danger for women in places like that is much worse, plus if they've had FGM they're not going to have an orgasm, period. I mainly meant American/Western European/Australian women, and I should have clarified that - sorry.
And each was a greater person for it.
Ladies and gentlemen, a toast to masturbation. Raise your hands in the air, and then stick 'em down there.

Then there's my friend "Charlotte", who once had some friends over to her dorm room in college for a movie. One guy sat on the lower bunk bed, said "Hey, what's this?" and yanked on a power cord that was hanging down from Charlotte's upper bunk. Boy, was he startled when a big pink vibe landed next to him.
So... you and your friend, Charlotte was it?... You both like to masturbate and are open about it yes? Do go on...
(wait.. this is the D&D thread right and not the H/A one?)
1] It can be over-used/abused (like anything really). That guy that sits in the basement watching porn all day. Don't be that guy... and don't sit on his couch or touch anything. In fact, it's just best not to go over there anymore.
Same with pot or beer or video games. I don't see nothing "wrong" with them, but don't think it's healthy to drink or smoke your life away. I don't find it a 'sin' and ain't going to preach about it; but feel that people where put on this planet for more then uncontrolled self-indulgence.
2] For me, if I crank out a few in a short time I get all lazy, tried and unmotivated to do anything. So in that sense, I find it "objectionable" in that I feel like I should be doing more with my day then just relaxing after a few good wanks on my crank.
That make sense?
