I'm not going to go deeply into why sexuality is a crucial part of being human for most people and why discovering and learning about one's own sexuality plays a major role in making a person feel complete. It's a topic that enough people should be able to tell you about should you wish to learn about it; it's really basic knowledge for anyone looking into human psychology.
One thing that is apparently not obvious to you is that even if you disregard the entire sexual identity issue sex requires practice and knowledge. Women who are not familiar with masturbation have a much harder time climaxing than those who do. People who are not familiar with their own bodies have a much harder time communicating their needs to their partners than people who are well aware of their own needs. In brief, sex life is significantly improved when you and your partner are intimately familiar with your own sexuality and able to express it. And since the sex life is directly related to the emotional well-being of a couple it plays a major part in the happiness in the relationship.
That was to put it very briefly; I've not even touched on all the trauma that's related to people feeling sinful if they are not allowed to explore their own sexuality - which is really the biggest problem of them all when it comes to making masturbation a no-no.
As for objectifying women, where did that come from? You brought up pornography, not I. Masturbation is not pornography. And for the record, pornography is merely playing out sexual fantasies in visual form. Erotic literature and non-photographic art that is all strictly fiction is nothing but an extension of the sexual imagery in a person's mind. It's a natural, unharmful thing.
