Is it normal that i feel guilty/dirty after masturbating?

I don't masturbate that often, maybe about once a week. I feel good immediately after, but after a while I feel guilty. Like I'm somehow less a good person and I'm betraying the whole pure-and-innocent thing. I'm a 17 yo girl, if that matters.

    There is nothing wrong or "impure" about masturbating. It is a natural tendency that almost everybody has participated in. It helps with stress, relaxation, and even helps ones self image by making you feel closer to your body!

    it's probably the age / maturity factor.

    not surprising for someone who is young to feel conflicted about seeking sexual pleasure and then feeling that it's wrong later on.

    when i was that age i wouldn't have ever even admitted that I was masturbating. but these days... these days i know my body's desires and needs, and am not afraid to attend to them.

    If you grew up in a religious household it is definitely normal. Religions like to make people feel guilty for normal human behavior and force people to ignore their natural urges to an unhealthy degree.
