It has health benefits, and is one of the best feeling things outside sex itsself. There's no good reason not to. Even if you want to be a good christian, just join the sect that centers around having sex with Jesus.

Masturbation five or more times a week is very good for men. Twenty-one times a month is the threshold for best results. Harvard Medical School New Scientist (both articles link the same two studies). It would seem to me that following natural law ought be make you healthy not increase your risk of cancer.  So, it would seem to me that unless a guy has a woman readily available at all times that masturbation is a very good thing. Naturally good in fact.
As I read your prescription for prostate health I am reminded of the song from Blazing Saddles "I'm not a wabbit!".
Quote:Lili Von Shtupp: [singing] Here I stand, the goddess of desire / Set men on fire / I have this power. / Morning, noon, and night, it's dwink and dancing / Some quick womancing / And then a shower. / Stage door Johnnies constantly suwwound me / They always hound me, with one wequest. / Who can satisfy their lustful habits? / I'm not a wabbit. / I need some we...
[Takes a breath]

Assuming you're straight, pro tip:
European porn stars are more attractive than American porn stars, on average. Too many American girls have had too much work done.

Give it a try. It feels like
That would be a waste of time for me.

Jesus doesn't like it when you lie. I'm sure he doesn't like it when you rub one off either.

A simple online search will tell you that Christians do not all agree on this subject. Nor did any of the sites I looked at use the Genesis verse (38:9) to support their opinion, which is a case of someone having sex, not masturbating. The specific act is coitus interruptus, and in Genesis 38:9, it was done to avoid impregnating his [dead] brother's wife, as he did not want to produce children for his brother. See:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se...ersion=KJV
(You can select alternate translations at that site.)
So it really has nothing to do with masturbation, and many Christians are sensible enough to see that. Some were sensible enough to observe the fact that the Bible does not mention masturbation, and so their opinions on the subject involve making inferences from other things that are stated.
