is there an evolutionary reason to this? first of all, its not just humans who masturbate.. there are bunch of animals who do it .. dogs hump all the time .. horses do it as well ..
now going into the possible reasons .. one reason which is proposed in general is that it is the process to get rid of old semen in the body to be replaced by freshly produced ones which would have higher odds to fertilise the egg ..
or may be this is our way of fighting evolution .. humans were sexually polygamous where in a male would mate with a group of females .. in the recent past we have moved from sexually polygamous to being socially monogamous .. and may be masturbating (by watching porn or fantasising about different women) is a way of men to stay faithful to their partners while satisfying their need to be sexually polygamous..
or may be the only relation of masturbation and evolution is that the former is the product of sexual urge and the latter needs sexual urge to succeed ..
