okay ive recently gone vegetarian.
i used to masturbate maybe once every one to two weeks. now, i cant seem to go 2 days without masturbating.
i know masturbation is healthy but im still very scared about it being a sin and if my friends do because if they dont i feel like im messed up or something.

second, masturbation is NOT a sin. as many believe it is, really, it is not. i've done research, argued my christian and catholic friends, and have come to the conclusion: it's not a sin.
and it's very normal for 14 year olds to masturbate. there's nothing wrong with it. i just wouldn't go around saying "i masturbate!!". some people think it's gross just because they haven't experienced it, or it's just not their cup of tea.

The increase in your urges could be due to a number of things, like where you are in your menstrual cycle. With the fluctuation of hormones comes an increase in sexual appetite for many women. It could also be that you are just getting older and feeling more sensual.
Masturbation is a normal and healthy response to sexual urges. It's also the safest sex you can have - no worries of consequences, after all. Most people masturbate at some point in their lives, and many masturbate throughout their lives.
You need to worry more about your own ideas about what feels right for you, rather than comparing yourself to your friends. I will say that many of your friends probably feel very similarly, but each of them will have to work out how they feel emotionally.
In my opinion, which I share with medical professionals, you're not messed up. You're a normal, healthy teenager. Masturbation is a good way to enjoy your body, and an excellent way to learn about what pleases you. This can help you in the future if you decide to have sex with a partner.

But if you would like to stop or slow down on it, try just to go a few days with out it. I know it will be kind of frustrating, but just wait because the less a girl masterbates, the less you want it. Weird huh? I thought it was just me but Ive heard from many other girls the same thing. So if you want to cut down, the first few days of not doing it will be hard but just remember it will only get easier from there.
oh yeah and your diet probabily has no effect on your sex drive so dont worry about that. [ smokedank123's advice column | Ask smokedank123 A Question ]
solidadvice4teens answered Sunday February 4 2007, 10:14 pm: You are a normal 14-year-old girl and need to relax. Masturbation is normal and something teens do a lot at this age whether they are male or female. You have nothing to fear whether you do it once a week, twice a week or a few times a day.
As long as it hasn't consumed all of your time or is at the point that you can do nothing else or you ignore friends or won't go outside in favor of doing it you are fine. It's not a sin or wrong and doctors will even tell you as much. If you enjoy doing it great if not then don't.
As for your friends, believe me they're doing it too but are too embarassed to say so as girls don't really talk about it like guys do. Rest assured you are normal. It's not really about what your friends are doing or like. It's about you and what you feel comfortable doing and exploring your own sexuality. Each person does that differently.
