You can try to convince them that wealth is not a valid condition for happy marriage. Marriage conditions are good faith religion and good manners. It might take you time to convince your parents mainly your father, but you have to try your best.

You can also request good persons who are respected by your parents to try to talk to your parents to convince them.

Wassalam.

No. Masturbation is a sinful act and we are not allowed to commit it under such excuse. Masturbation itself is itself a sinful act, and it can never be permitted for a Muslim female. There are many things mentioned in Quran and authentic Hadeeth which help avoiding falling in sexual sinful acts like:1. Fasting which helps a lot in controlling sexual urge. 2. Avoiding things which increase sexual urge like photos, films, music and songs.

3. Remembering the pious females who are the best models for us like lady Fatima, lady Mariam, lady Zainab, lady Ummul Baneen and other pious females.

4. Remembering the punishment of the sins and great reward of the piousness in this life and hereafter.

There are narrations that do mention some of these things, but most of our esteemed scholars do not mention it as one of the makruh acts during intimacy, meaning that they might not hold that level of authenticity. 

You must refer to your Marja' taqleed on this, but whatever the case is, it is not haram, nor even firmly established as 'makruh'.

It is important to keep the respect of women not to bow in Ruku' and prostrate in Sujood in front of men. Men should not see the women bowing down or prostrating. The rows of women should be behind the rows of men.

It is always good to give gifts to people to encourage them to do more good. It is not good to give tips to every one even if they are not deserving. Wasting money is not good. Keep your gifts for those who deserve it.

Shia man is allowed to marry a Muslim woman from any Muslim sect as far as such marriage will not harm his faith and religious practice. If your mother is disagreeing, then you need to do everything you can to convince her and make agree without forcing her. You should never cause anything which hurts the respect or the feeling of your parents.

The Qur'an does not express these negative ideas about women. Also, the Qur'an makes everyone responsible for their own acts (that is, men cannot blame women for their actions). It also conflicts the kind and respectful way that the Prophet (S) treated his womenfolk and female sahabah. Therefore, narrations which appear to contradict the Qur'an and Sunnah can be set aside.

This particular hadith is not in any strong source books - it appears to have been taken from Jami' al-Saghir by al-Suyuti (15th century, Egyptian, Sunni) - so it can be set aside as not having any evidence to support it as an authentic statement of the Prophet (S). 

As for where it came from, possibly someone said it as a reflection of the age-old tensions between men and women in life and it became attributed to the Prophet (S). These types of negative views about women and religion existed for a long time before Islam and could have come from there.

Islam does not accept accusations but asks for concrete evidence to stab lush whether the person committed a crime or hot. Muslims must follow Islamic Sharia.
