True, but have you considered that if someone was to ask the deeper question as to why it isn’t a sin, that you’ll have to answer that as well. It isnt an easy question to answer especially from those who have experienced sexual trauma or abuse. Just my two cents.
It’s not ok to masturbate however I believe in the point that we have to address the pain that a person is trying to numb with it so that there’s no need for the habit in the first place.
All good points; not receiving the satisfaction that God gives in Jesus by replacing it with a counterfeit feeling of temporary satisfaction in order to soothe pain, hurt, the flesh, etc. is idolatry.
I'd just out right say, no, it's not Ok.

There is freedom in Christ, we can break free from every bondage. We must not settle for less than what God offers.
