I think the physiological answer could be staring you in the face. His masturbation takes care of his desire.
Is he a very stressed person? Under stress, people develop habits. Masturbation is a habit. I remember being the most stressed, depressed, uncomfortable SOB on the planet, yet I could still whip out my porn and feel good for a couple minutes. Maybe the kids are stressful. Maybe he's ashamed of something. Is he religious?
I don't think this is all too complicated... nothing really is. Just look for reasons why he could find some anxiety about sex.
Going off on a tangent.. if he somehow found shame in sex (either by religious teachings or by societal standards) then it would make sense why he would masturbate, but not admit to doing so. Claiming he is prude is a good indicator. Even though you've moved past that hurdle, it's still and always will be his guilty pleasure. The fact that he masturbates will curb his sex drive when the time comes.
Anyways.. just a thought.
