In my opinion, there are no negative aspects on masturbating. It is a natural human act that mostly everyone does. If you are having religious convictions, this will be a matter that you will have to decide on your own.

well, it feels good...and it can prevent testicular cancer (if you're a guy). However, the chances of you getting caught could be high if you don't have your own room. Also, have a kleenex at the ready.
if you're a girl the orgasms are longer and stronger so its even more enjoyable! It takes between 00:05 and 45:00 depending on you.

Honestly, I think this all depends on your point of view, towards masturbation. This often depends on one's religion, but everyone's opinions are different. Here is some information on masturbation, so you can learn more about it, and decide for yourself.

Despite what a lot of us may have been told by our parents or others, masturbation does not cause physical injury or harm to the body. I'm sure we’ve all heard plenty of myths about masturbation. Some may include blindness, growing hair on the palms of your hands, becoming impotent, developing a mental illness, reducing libido, the list goes on. But I assure you that none of these are true. They have all been tested and proven to be false by the medical community. Though masturbation has no physical consequences, you may need to watch out for some of the mental consequences masturbation can bring to you. For example, if masturbation occurs within a marriage or relationship, where masturbation replaces having sex with your partner, it could potentially damage the self-esteem of him/her. Mainly, masturbation may have negative social consequences if you become preoccupied with self-pleasure to the point that it interferes with your day to day activites. In the end though, masturbation is considered to be a natural and safe way for men and women to express sexuality and may help promote self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-confidence. Just remember that masturbation is in no way unhealthy as long as it doesn't interfere with other things such as school, work, dating, etc. It is a completely healthy addition and offers a way for you to enjoy your own body. Masturbation can help you learn more about what you might want to try with a partner as well. Sharing what you know about your body with partners can enhance your sexual relationships. Mutual masturbation, where you masturbate while watching your partner masturbate, can be very arousing. Masturbation is a fun alternative to other types of sexual pleasure that holds no risk of pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases.
POSTIVES:
- May help to reduce stress & release sexual tension.
-May help a person become more comfortable with his or her own sexuality
-Eliminates the potential possibility for pregnancy or transmission of STDs.
-Being self-aware of one’s body and sexuality may better prepare him/her for sexual activity with a partner.
NEGATIVES:
-Frequent and vigorous masturbation may produce skin abrasions or superficial bruising/temporary discoloration.
-Masturbation may become an obsession or addiction.

There really aren't any negatives if you're safe about it (in other words, don't share sex toys, don't use anything dirty or not intended for sexual use, etc.)
The benefits are many. First, it's a great way to relieve sexual tension without going out and actually having sex. Second, you get a better idea of what works for you and what feels good, along with what doesn't. This knowledge can help make sexual intercourse better, too, because you can help your partner give you more pleasure.
Masturbation is nothing to be ashamed of, and assuming you do it safely, there is no reason not to. Find what you like! Enjoy it, and renew your appreciation for your body.
