mrpokie answered Tuesday July 15 2008, 5:51 am: There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Don't listen to Barney or whatever his name is... I'd bet my life that God could care less if you masturbate. There's nothing on the ten commandments about touching yourself, and anyone who tries to tell you it's against God to do it is full of crap. Do it all you want, and have fun!

amber_x answered Sunday July 13 2008, 10:08 pm: That doesn't mean your addicted to sex,
Your actually just addicted to pleasing yourself/being pleased.
Get a boyfriend, It may be a little better. [ amber_x's advice column | Ask amber_x A Question ]
solidadvice4teens answered Friday July 11 2008, 9:57 pm: Masturbation is not adultery. Just so you know Webster's Dictionary defines adultery as "voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and a person who is not his or her spouse." This clearly isn't that.
You aren't a sex addict either. What you are doing is normal even if you do do it 2-3 times a day. You aren't hurting anyone or yourself either.
The only time it's wrong/bad is if it's ALL you are doing and nothing else. For example, you lock yourself in your room and don't emerge to be with friends and do normal activities. Other than that you're a normal male or female dealing with hormones and urges the only way you know how without sex.
You're also in good company as 70-75% of women do it statistically (all ages) and 90% of males. Doctors, pediatricians have even gone on record to say it's natural and perfectly fine if you do or do not do it. So don't worry unless it's all you ever do and you don't lead a normal life apart from it.
That's where there's something wrong. You haven't reached that so you're fine no matter what anyone will say religious or otherwise that it isn't.
Most people you know including friends and classmates likely do this as much as you do but don't talk about it openly. It's almost universal with teens from every piece of information, book and human sexuality course I've been in or read.
It's only a problem like I said above if it's all you seem to ever do or want to and you aren't leading a normal social life or doing activities and getting out of the house or your room. It's not an addiction or health problem otherwise. [ solidadvice4teens's advice column | Ask solidadvice4teens A Question ]

barneyrocks answered Thursday July 10 2008, 8:49 am: Actually it is bad to pleasure yourself, it's considered adultry. And every time you do it and when you're tempted, Satan's cheering you on. And this addiction could lead to bigger things when you feel what you're doing isn't pleasuring you anymore and you want more. And that lust in your heart is bad, you need to get rid of evil desires. And do you ever feel after you get an orgasm or w.e, that your desire is gone? See your hormones are taking over, eventually you'll drown in this pleasure and like other bad addictions, years will pass fater than you'll know and you'll miss something out there that would've been great because you're high on sex. My advice to you is to stop before it's too late :[ [ barneyrocks's advice column | Ask barneyrocks A Question ]
bigflirtbabe answered Thursday July 10 2008, 2:53 am: hey, practically everyone touches themselves. If you like to do it to the point where you're doing that instead of other things that you're in trouble. But if you're addicted to touching yourself it's not like you can give your self STDs or anything. It's fine. When you actually have sex you'll be wowed!! lol
