Can someone tell me if masterbating is a natural stage of puberty?

Commonplace: This is part of a persons life.Having sex, whether it be alone or with a partner is part of life. Few cultures are open about the subject, but it is the norm not the exception.It often dominates the early adolescent period but may continue through life.

Probably not...: I'm not sure to consider masturbation as a natural stage of puberty. Reaching puberty means becoming capable to reproduce offspring, for which he needs to ejaculate with orgasm to end sexual intercourse, that is, the natural way, leading me to wonder if the peak point of orgasmic pleasure is the natural lure to drive humans and other animals to pursue and fulfill their natural biological duty.
