I grew up in a very religious Catholic household. My parents had seven girls, so they never really felt the need to talk to us about sex , porn and masturbation. They grew up in a time when porn wasn't widely available for young women, so they wrote it off. The church taught us that those types of things were forbidden. I don't know about other churches, but I'm sure that some of them preach the same. Now that I'm older and have been masturbating and watching porn for half of the years of my life, I don't see anything wrong with it. It's always spiced up my sex life with my lovers, it's never made me antisocial, and it's actually taught me how to be one with my body and how to enjoy myself. Although I agree that too much of anything is bad , I've started to wonder if masturbation and porn addiction are just myths made up by religion. (I'm not longer religious)
