Based on my reading of the Bible, I interpret it to be wrong if it detracts from a healthy family relationship. Otherwise (say for a single person or someone with an impotent spouse), it is certainly preferable to unfaithfulness. Nevertheless, I do recognize that being "preferable" doesn't in and of itself make it "okay." Our sexual urges are biological, and I don't think God would bless us with strong urges if he wished us not to find release in a harmless manner. However, in some cases, masturbation could lead to indulgence in pornography or worse. I guess my answer is, it is okay, so long as your motives are pure. | ||||||
