Nothing harmful: Issues related to masturbation are clouded by religious and personal issues of sexuality. Most comments about it are personal or come under the category of "old wives tales" Masturbation is not harmful unless it becomes an obsession, interferes with normal activities or is a reflection of mental issues of which masturbation is simply one symptom.
