Is it true or not true that masturbation is self abuse?

several years ago i was reading a book and i came across that piece of information that back in the victorian era in England when queen victoria was the queen of England that people had that belief about masturbation and i want to know the truth about that because that question has a direct correlation to me and my life.Is it true or not true that masturbation is self abuse?
Yep that's what they thought in Victorian England. Doesn't mean it's true. Nowadays we have more knowledge of psychology, physiology and human sexuality and masturbation is now recognised as a normal and healthy activity.





Ironically, the machines that were invented in Victorian England to cure women of masturbation are just huge vibrators that lead women to 'hysterical paroxysm' - or orgasm. Doctors used a technique called 'pelvic massage' on such women too - basically, fingering.Is it true or not true that masturbation is self abuse?

Hmm.. Victorian era? I wasn't aware we were from there?


Start reading up on information that's more recent and logical.


Good Luck.
No of course not! There's a reason why that information you got pertains to the Victorian age, and belongs there only. It's outdated and ignorant. Back then it was a sin and remember there were even beliefs that it could make you go blind.
False. Masturbation is not harmful to you. In fact oral sex is a for of mastrubation.
It is referred to as ';Self Gratification'; not Self Abuse.
It can be .Look at how David Carradine died.


It leads to too much fantasizing and makes it harder for people to have a real relationship in real life.
