Jesus loves masturbation. ]
While masturbation is not condoned by the church it is neither considered to be a sin.
In a survey I read published in a Christian newspaper the survey reported that 85% of us masturbate. That most organized religions do not condone the practice, including Christianity and the Catholic church, neither is it a sin as it is not addressed in the bible.
Masturbation is a good safe way to release built up sexual tension brought on by puberty. It also allows you to explore your own sexuality in the privacy of your bedroom. To find out where you like to be touched an how you like to be touched. Masturbation is also part of foreplay for sex although it is generally called mutual masturbation as one partner is masturbating the other to stimulate them for sexual intercourse.
If you wish to masturbate then go ahead. As long as it is not an all encompassing part of your life to the exclusion of everything else go ahead. Explore your body and enjoy yourself.
Just remember to assure your privacy by locking your door so you are not intruded upon. Then set the mood by turning down the lights and playing some soft music if you want. ]

perhaps this site will help you. I don't know whether it is or not. Though I have heard many things on whether it should be or shouldn't be. I suppose read this and decide for yourself. ]
