The pleasure of complaining about being persecuted, when practiced by people who aren't actually being persecuted.
In an orgy of martyrbation, the fundamentalists complained that they were being persecuted for not being allowed to use tax dollars to promote their brand of religion.

You see, when a good red blooded American nut job will go on a rampage, killing innocent people, and then blow his own brains out, or go down in a shootout with the SWAT team, he's generally pissed off...and he s not saying "God is great" before he kills those people....not like those MARTYRBATION puppets that think theyre doing god's will every time one pops.

Using one's religion to be perceived as a victim, beg for donations, or to appear more righteously pious than others. Often used in conjunction with the case of the sadz.
Tony Perkins and Bryan Brown are martyrbating again against the "evils" of homosexuality.
The anti-gay/religious right organizations are having funding issues again, time for another round of martyrbating.

A combination of Martyr and masturbation. Used to refer to people (usually christian Americans) who pretend to be persecuted despite being a majority. Usually martyrbators will talk about hypothetical situations in which their religion or ideology becomes illegal or otherwise banned by the government.
Bob posted on face book him pretending to take a mugshot saying "when Christianity becomes illegal". He lives in the middle of Tennessee this is just martyrbation.
