Is masturbation harmful?
Written by Jason Evert   
Tuesday, 02 February 2010

Despite what many modern sex educators may say, evidence shows that masturbation is harmful for both men and women. If you have ever taken a class in psychology, you probably learned about Pavlov's dog. Pavlov was a guy who rang a bell every time he was about to feed his dog. By doing this, the dog came to associate the bell with food, and would begin salivating at the sound of the bell. This is known as a trained response.

The human mind can be trained in the same way. In fact, the pleasure center of the brain is the most easily trained part of the human mind. This place in the brain is called the Medial Pre-optic Nucleus (MPN), and when the body experiences great pleasure, as in a sexual release, this part of the brain is rewarded. According to the research of Dr. Douglas Weiss, when a person experiences sexual arousal, the brain releases endorphins that help train the MPN to associate pleasure with whatever the person is doing, looking at, smelling, and so on.[1] Unconsciously, a person forms a bond between a particular image, scent, or person and the feeling of sexual pleasure. (That's one reason they put perfume samples in porn magazines).

During sexual pleasure, this bond is further solidified by the release of a neuropeptide called oxytocin. This also creates a bond between people during a sexual act. If a person is alone, it still creates a mental bond with whomever he is fantasizing about. However, this bonding mechanism is damaged through casual sexual arousal.[2]

This scientific discovery sheds new light on Paul's words: "Do you not know that he who joins himself to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, 'The two shall become one flesh.' . . . Shun immorality. Every other sin which a man commits is outside the body; but the immoral man sins against his own body" (1 Cor. 6:16–18).

When a person experiences sexual pleasure while masturbating and lusting after another in his imagination, he is training his brain to be stimulated by fantasy images in his own mind. If this is what a person's brain identifies as the cause of sexual joy, then where does this leave his or her spouse one day? A spouse is not a fantasy image that you act upon, but a real human being with his or her own personality, feelings, emotions, etc. Yet instead of being able to take joy in the actual person in the marriage bed, the individual trained by masturbation may be driven to find stimulation in inner fantasies even while trying to make love to his or her spouse. Sometimes men and women may look beyond their own imagination to adultery, strip clubs, pornography, or a disordered lust for one another to satiate their desires. Sometimes, the habit of masturbation continues within marriage in order to take care of sexual "needs."

Now, this does not mean that you are doomed to a dysfunctional marriage if you have ever experienced sexual pleasure with anyone other than your husband or wife. However, it does mean that you will have obstacles to overcome that those without such a history will not struggle with. The brain can be retrained, but it will take time according to how well-entrenched the habit of lust has become.

This should show us that God's plan for our sexuality is stamped into our anatomy. When people live according to God's truths, their bodies will associate sexual joy with their spouse. God has designed our bodies to ensure that a married couple will be physiologically drawn toward each other. Their minds have been trained that way. As the Bible says, "Let your fountain be yours alone, not one shared with strangers. And have joy of the wife of your youth, your lovely hind, your graceful doe. Her love will invigorate you always. Through her love you will flourish constantly" (Prov. 5:17–19).

    I just deleted a post from this page because it offered a link to a soft core porn site. Sorry buddy, you can do most
    thing, but you can't do that. Feel free to post again without the site name.
  • filipea.
    I think this happen to me every time when I look at a beatiful, or sexy woman on the street etc...I think porn hijack
    my brain..because I can't look to a strange woman without shame, it's like I was view porn. But I hope that God will
    help me with this.

    I don't know exactaly how to explain this, but I think it has some assosiations with the porn
    effect in my brain...

    great article.
  • Gee  - Do you hide it when you are doing it.
    If you are masturbatiing alone, it only mean that you don't want anybody to see you doing it. If you where to get
    caught masturbating, it would be shamefull. Just ask yourself, Can I masturbate in public and not be ashamed? If you
    are masturbating and hiding it must be bad. If is good, you want everybody to know and share it. If you don't want
    share it and keep it hidden then it must be evil.

    When a person steals he or she does not announce it. He or she
    does in secret or it stelth. The person knows that stealing is bad and evil.
  • George  - Do you hide when you are having sex with your wife
    Hi Gee,
    When i'm having sex with my wife, I don't want to get caught by anybody. I can't have sex in public and not be
    ashamed.
    Does this mean it's bad ?
    Thanks in advance.

    I see a difference in the sense that marriage, people assume you will be being physically intimate, and NO ONE has a
    problem with married couples recommitting to each other through sexual intimacy. In the sense of masturbation, yeah sure
    people do it, some people don't have a problem with it, mostly cuz they don't see the problem with it, and don't try to.


    George, I see what you mean about trying to label something because of how it's done, hidden means bad. I don't know
    if you were supporting porn/masturbation or not with your post, but I appreciate the challenge, and not just saying
    something is bad due to the circumstance we do it in. I do not believe porn and masturbating are healthy things and I
    steer clear from them, however I do agree that there is more logic to the reason why porn and masturbating is bad, than
    just it being in secret. I don't think that these things being in secret helps the cause either...but I think there are
    better arguments than that stand alone.

    I really like the information given on this site, about the research that has
    been done! Thank you for making it available to have a strong pillar in the foundation of Christ to stand on!

    Peace
  • Gee
    Hi George,

    If I were to have sex inpublic with my spouse, I would be supporting the pornography industry. My spouse
    and I would be just acting for the public to view. Where is the love in that? Just think about it pornography is
    nothing but an act. Porn actors and actresses are the acting. There is no love, is just acting. There's no love in
    viewing pornography or masturbating, it can not give or receive love. Having sex with a spouse where there is a
    giving and receiving of love, then is it is good.
  • Paul  - What does the Church teach?
    I have had a quick scan through this website and nowhere can I find any reference to 'gay' pornography. Some, if not
    all of the arguments against men looking at pornography seem to be based on the premise that men only look at 'straight'
    porn. I expect some readers will immediately pass this off as all homosexuals are 'objectively disordered' and that
    all gay sex is 'intrinsically disordered' so it doesn't need to be dealt with here. However, many of the reasons given
    for not masturbating also seem to make an assumption that men who masturbate are 'straight' and will eventually
    marry.

    The priest and theologian James Alison says that "the deepest tradition of Catholic faith, which you see
    well represented in Aquinas (teaches) that there is really no such thing as an intrinsically evil desire. The notion
    that human desire is intrinsically evil, is something which has no place (in the Church), actually the doctrine is
    forbidden by the Council of Trent", (www.abc.net.au/rn/encounter/stories/2010/3029756. htm).

    With reference to
    masturbation the Catechism is quite clear in its teaching, it is "an intrinsically and gravely disordered
    action" , just like gay sex guys! However, the Catechism goes on to say that one should "take into account the
    affective immaturity, force of acquired habit, conditions of anxiety, or other psychological or social factors that can
    lessen, if not even reduce to a minimum, moral culpability." It is my experience that most Confessors I have spoken
    to take the view that men an...
  • Nobody Important  - Excuse Me
    I find the entire nature of this website to be absolutely abhorrent. Why do people like you feel the need to constantly
    denigrate people with whom you have absolutely no connection? Yes, I do watch porn. I also masturbate. I'm also a
    completely well-adjusted and productive member of society. I don't have a lesser opinion of women. What's more
    astounding is I'm perfectly capable of carrying out physically and emotionally satisfying sexual relationships because,
    contrary to what you and your colleagues apparently believe, porn and masturbation haven't demolished my mental link
    between reality and fantasy. I'm not immoral, and I'm completely offended by your website's insinuation that I am.

    If
    I were to stoop to your pathetic level, I'd call you all hypocrites for criticizing people whose sexual practices you
    disagree with whilst simultaneously preaching the benefits of something as shallow and without long-term benefit as the
    Catholic religion. But, I'm above that. I'm a nice person.
