Agony Aunty Callie	Some Religions regard masturbation as a "Sin" sometimes referred to as "self abuse" and can be viewed as "Taboo" or "Dirty" it is common for the ignorant and uninformed to preach against it to induce fear and guilt as a means of controlling the behavior and thoughts of others.It is often taught that it causes all sorts of nasty things to happen, like blindness, hairy palms, promiscuity, perversion, and even madness or mental illness or cancer and other terminal illnesses. This is completely untrue, masturbation does not cause ANY illness; physical or mental. It is a natural part of sexual development, and unless there is an infection or injury to the genitals, it will not harm you in any way. As to it being a sin, I suppose it is if you adhere to the belief that it is a sin, and it is not if you don't adhere to that belief, it is all relative to what you believe within your self. I think that the harmless self pleasure of masturbation pales in comparison to all the truly awful things that human beings seem to do to each other. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
