So... is menstruation a sin? Same exact situation going on there.
Pshaw!
You can't be serious. Menstruation is an inevitable process that does not involve either fantasy or pleasure.
Masturbation is a voluntary act whose purpose is to satisfy lust by fantasy-driven pleasure.
Masturbation in boys is not the same thing as menstruation in girls. It's the same exact thing as masturbation in girls.
Obviously.
And it's gravely sinful, according to the Catholic and Orthodox Churches. Always has been, going back to Jesus saying that if one looks at another with lust in the heart, one has already committed adultery in the heart.
Girls don't hide the fact they are menstruating from their parents. They do hide the fact that they are masturbating. So do boys. This is because everybody knows from the beginning that it's a serious sin and something to hide.
It's such a squidgy subject that nobody here wants to address it. It's embarrassing and hidden, because it's sinful, and everybody knows it.
