Recent studies have shown that most boys begin masturbating to orgasm between the ages of 13 and 15.

Option A is incorrect as Kinsey's report on adolescent masturbation showed that both boys and girls engage in masturbation. Option C is incorrect as frequent masturbation was believed to be harmful in the early 20th century, not beneficial. Option D is incorrect as masturbation is a normal and healthy part of adolescent sexual development.
