Should I not?

[Some Guy]

My parents are Mormons. They do not like anything about sex. Would that make it wrong for me to masturbate?

I am new here.

Do what you think is right. You live in a free country, just because your parents are Mormons doesn't mean you have to be a Mormon. My parents are Christian, and I'm not the least bit religious, because I see how stupid it is.

If you think it's okay to masturbate, then go ahead. Your parents don't ever have to figure out until you're out of the house, at which point they can't do anything. Masturbating doesn't hurt anybody.

[timofy18]

whatever tou feel is right thats what you should do

[MoveAlong]

Well I hope you're not thinking that because they don't like anything about sex, they don't like masturbation, since sex and masturbation are two different things (although one can assume that because they don't like one, they won't like the other)

Annyyywayyyyzzz :P It probably would make it wrong in their eyes, although if you like it and you enjoy it, I don't see the problem. It's your decision and it's your choice to make, man!

yep this is sound advice :D my parents were raised to think that masturbation was bad but they dont have a problem with me doing that as long as i do it in private

[Some Guy]

My parents told me that I should never touch myself unless I am washing it or going to the bathroom.

Well do what you want...
But if you do, then make sure it is in private and remove all traces of evidence because they might get stressed at you if you don't

[Crazysam]

Its your choice dude just as Zach said masterbation and sex are two completely different things! At the end of the day its your hand and your penis so what ever you do with it (providing its legal) is your choice and entirley up to you.

[Some Guy]

I am not saying I want to. I am just saying would it make it wrong for me to masturbate.

Do you believe it's wrong? If you do then don't do it. If it's just your parents and you think differently then do what you want.

[Some Guy]

I think it is wrong but sometimes it gets tempting.

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you

Listen to George.

no its not wrong to masturbate unless YOU think it is

[Silverfist64]

Wow. They told you never to touch yourself excpet for washing and going to the bathroom! I wouldnt last a day their. Do what you want. Dont let your parents control how you feel and what you want to do. Do whatever you want. If i were you though Id do it whenever their not home or asleep. That way you have as much time as you need.

[Cap'nCrunch]

If you are a Mormon, then masturbating would be against the principles of Christianity. But, I guess it's up to you to decide whether or not it's "wrong."

[Some Guy]

I just did it a little and felt guilty about it. I will not do it anymore.:D



But sometimes I want to.:(

This is a tough one. Determining what is 'Wrong' is a very personal matter, and I doubt anyone here can (or frankly should) be offering you counsel on personal morality.
I suppose the best thing to do is either ask them directly and have a conversation about your feelings and urges, see what they say. They actually might be more understanding than you think, even if they have a problem with masturbation. Or, you can reflect on your upbringing, your values, what you've been taught, and arrive at your own conclusion based on this.
The most important thing isn't so much if it's ok to masturbate or not, it's finding out how your family (and your religion) feel about the normal sexual urges everyone has. It sounds like it might be important to you to get thier ideas not so much on masturbation, but more importantly, human sexuality. Masturbation is, afterall, just the 'result' of the universal sexuality we all have coursing thru our veins. Feeling 'shame' over masturbating or touching yourself isn't as important as coming to terms with natural biological sexuality. There's no shame in that. Perhaps your folks can help you come up with different ways of reacting to those natural urges that don't violate some of your religious beliefs. But also don't lead you to feel shame and guilt over something that's essentially normal.

im not racist or tring to be racist and erase this if u think its racist, but theres mormons for u, but still, if u think its right then go ahead, they can't kill you just because you broke their 'rules' and because your being a teenager.:D

[Some Guy]

How is that racist? Has nothing to do with race.

[Unknown_kid]

my parents are mormon too, thats why i went to church and got babtised as a christian, then never went to church again, so i ddint feal as guilty.
