What’s Up With Masturbation?

Some of the generally accepted benefits of masturbation include the following:

1. It is a good way of relieving sexual tension that can build up over time, especially for people without partners, or whose partners are not willing or available to have sex.
2. It is a safe sexual alternative for people who wish to avoid pregnancy and the dangers of sexually transmitted diseases.
3. It is necessary when a man must give a semen sample for infertility testing or for sperm donation.
4. It is a standard prescription given by sex therapists to treat sexual dysfunction in an adult, helping a person to experience orgasm (often in women) or to delay orgasm (often in men).

The big question here is: Can a Christian masturbate? Is it morally right or wrong? Those who argue against it claim that masturbation is unnatural, and may result in God’s judgment on the body later on in life (in the form of physical ailments). Others claim that it is an irresponsible means to attain sexual satisfaction without the “burden” of commitment. Spiritual giants like C.S. Lewis and John Calvin were both strongly against it.

That's the new blog of Ps. Kong Hee, very extensive and insightful, would help many people to find answer for the questions they have.
