I'm thinking of responses to largely theistic statements that masturbation is bad or wrong because it's a sin or whatever other justifications they use.

It very well could be an appeal to nature rather than a naturalistic fallacy, I guess I'm not that knowledgeable about the difference. Is the appeal to nature not fallacious?

And, yes, Beccs beat you to it. :p

As always... as should be expected of a smart person.

Thanks, but the bolded part is a little inflated, methinks; sometime I'll have to tell you about the incredibly stupid argument I had with my best friend about Indiana Jones. I was not a smart person during that argument. Angel
