Anon tries to keep his hands busy
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Ok, which religion is masturbation positive though? Islam, Judaism, Buddism, ... ?

This is a tiny fraction of the religions that sometimes or always allow masturbation. I'm not seeing any indigenous American, Australian, or Austronesian religions in this article.
TIL, thanks for the link and excerpt.
Thanks for keeping an open mind. A lot of people are taught from childhood that Abrahamism is representative of all religion, and they stick to that even when the truth is in front of their face. This state of affairs was manufactured, it didn't used to be like this. People used to be a lot more accepting of religions they didn't understand. In fact, before the Roman Empire, most people believed in the gods of every religion, and that was normal. And I can also assure you the ancient Greeks didn't have Christian reservations about sexual pleasure. They had their own set of rules, but it was a different set.

Unitarian-Universalists don't have a problem at all with masturbation, and they encourage you to explore and accept your body. That sounds pretty masturbation positive to me!
