The Truth behind Masturbation

Do you remember when the word "masturbation" was almost a naughty word? In fact, 15 years ago a U.S. Attorney lost her job because she made a public statement to the affect that masturbation is something that should be taught. A lot has sure changed since then. Or, has it really? Although surveys state that the majority of boys and men have masturbated at some time in their life-many on a regular basis, how many are willing to actually admit to this fact?
