If god disnt want us to masturbate why did he make our desire for women so strong and the urges so intense especially at a young age
Since when does desire equate to something being right? Why did Paul encourage people to only marry if they can't control their sexual urges? I mean, if you can masturbate and its ok, why marry then?
How is it possible to masturbate without lust? Lets face it, that's really what it comes down to. A selfish desire to please yourself at the expense of a womans body.
Some people have strong desires to kill. Look at serial and mass murderers. Should we just assume since they have such strong desires then it must be ok?
I believe much of our sexual desires are pushed by culture. Culture tells us sex means nothing. I've seen men and women with t-shirts that say 'its just sex'. You can't turn on a tv show, or movie, or even walk through the grocery store without seeing some sexy woman. Sex is everywhere, tv, movies, online, real life. Maybe its not our desires are so naturally strong, but we live in a culture that feeds our desires and pushes them beyond what they were intended.
