In light of a recent scandal...

In light of a recent scandal which involves a famous and very young girl, whos video showing herself masturbating
got uploaded and spread through the net, I would like to ask a serious question. Lets juz say that in a different scenario, not connected to what recently happened, is it really not okay for a 12 year old girl to masturbate? Lets take in mind
that that is the time when puberty hits. A 12 year old girl (or boy for that matter) masturbating, does that really mean they need guidance? Or they werent guided in the first place? What is guidance? Is masturbation really a sin? Or is considering it a sin juz a by-product of religion and its zealotry. Lets not mention the famous girl's name here to prevent further damage to her.

sus with this generation kids are now open to website and all, they are very hyper when it comes to that kind of matter. bisan pa cguro sa inyong mga paligid ang mga bata krn mas prone na sa mga *** vids.

Girls who begin masturbating at an early age are probably victims of molestation by either anyone close to them or any of the family members. let's not however limit ourselves to that possibility because if we try to consider the generation today, every teen or worst ,every child is prone to indulge himself/herself in any kind of sexual activities. Yes, it's definitely part of growing up , but taking a video of herself doing it and just eventually "lose" it? no sense of responsibility , just plain stupidity.

Its part of growing up! Personally, I started when I was still 9... and from a conservative and religious family, and I was born in the 80's. Like what the hell are people bashing for saying that shes still 12 and shes not supposed to be or shes not capable to do that act. Like WTF!!? Are you people retarded? As long as shes not playing some guy's schlong then let her be happy. The problem here is someone uploaded a video with a minor masturbating and showing her private parts, which translates to child porn. If this happened in the US, the mother*cker who did this would have his ass banged up by now by the FBI. They have very strict laws against child exploitation.

she was exploring her own body, I think that is normal and healthy at that age.

she was curious about her biology. she even studied her fingers.. taking a closer look a couple of times... so innocent, trying to learn more about her anatomy.

i do not see erotica in her movements from 0:10 to 0:22... just normal curiosity of youth. not much different from an ObGyne performing an internal exam. looking at her fingers at 1:07... as if saying to herself... "what is this stuff?"..and decided at the second look at 1:29 that... "ah, ok..."

what is scandalous is sharing the video with the public.. and making her fodder for gossip as if we are holier than her... and proselytize about our versions of morality upon others.

now to your questions:

is it okay to masturbate at 12? yes it is.

what is definitely not okay is to upload a private video up in social media. that is a heinous crime.
