It is okay to masturbate.
Sexuality is a physiological need, not an addiction put into you through subliminal messaging (unless you're some kind of ace). In fact, it is also good for your mental health.
Like many things, it’s only healthy in moderation. If you’re one of those reddit dudes janking it three times a day yet say they’re not addicted, it’s very likely an addiction.
