It's okay to masturbate because it's natural.
Thoughts? Does this qualify as a fallacious argument or not?
(full disclosure, I haven't given this a huge deal of thought. In fact, I'm still making dinner.)
Well yeah, if you carry on like that dinner may take a very long time. (Hope you washed.)
Doh, beaten to the punch. Well played, Beccs, well played.
Does masturbation require a rationalization? If you wanna, go ahead. If not, lets eat.
