All of the nofappers I've ever talked to had some serious incel vibes going on, so I guess there's that

The idea is basically stop faping and try and do something else its degenerate to fap so go out meet some girls fuck them if you want or do exercise or read a book or something the whole thing is is to get people off fapping and instead trying to better themselves

It's bullshit, there's no health benefits, it's all broscience.

>>81536 (OP)

It's legit, there are health benefits, it's all science.

>>81536 (OP)

regardless, there are better things to do than paying attention to it unless you spend 25% of your day masturbating.

t. have previously gotten to 120 days nofap, currently fapping daily to degenerate shit

To say abstinence has no effect on you is just outright denial.

First things first, you are very likely to get hornier. Some people are good at translating that desire into incentive to self-improve. Maybe others would see it as a really fucking annoying distraction.

Second, wet dreams/"nocturnal emmisions". I tended to get them a month in, give or take. Not really fun, like a nightmare but messy instead of scary.

Third, I cum a ton when I relapse, and I'm sure you will too. It's impressive.

Of course you will see exaggerated or subjective claims. Don't be an idiot and use your critical analysis skills to think about what people are saying.

One benefit of trying is that it can seriously train your will power. I consider that a valuable skill.

>Is it harming for your health not to jerk off everyday?

Which health? Mental? Physical? I would say it is both beneficial and harmful to jerk off every day. Life is complex.

eg. I don't think about sex all the time which is great for productivity, but I literally jerk off to origami, anthro herms and horror material through years of fetish escalation. Whether that is non-trivially unhealthy or not is really subjective.

Excessive masturbation is bad. Not masturbating at all is bad.

At least in men, masturbating can get rid of old semen and lower the risk of prostate issues. Like, if you don't masturbate for a few weeks and then ejaculate, it can happen that your cum is yellowish and a bit lumpy - that's old semen.

And masturbating too much can fuck with your endorphin levels, your sex drive, and even give you (temporary) erectile dysfunction. You can usually fix this by not masturbating for a month or so.

Oh. I got no sources to back that up btw, it's what my local doctor told me and I'm too lazy to do research.

It's the exit for when your porn addiction takes up more than 12 hours every day and has rendered you otherwise impotent. Other than the other obvious exit, but with nofap you get to live too.

>Is it a jewish conspiracy to drive white men's sex drive lower?

That would be fag kike Milo telling you to hate women. It seems to be working, too.

This reminds me of the cold shower fad.

It's a complete meme. There are benefits to masturbating LESS (especially if it's taking up significant amounts of your time every day), but abstaining completely for [insert arbitrary length of time here] has really no additional effect. It also depends mostly on the person doing it, with some men seeing positive effects and some not so much. Most of the studies and anecdotes I've seen show that testosterone peaks after about a week of abstinence, and then starts to trend lower; so just based on that, no-fap for longer than a week is actually detrimental. Also probably bad for your prostate.

For me personally, after a couple weeks everything just seems to shut down. My libido drops to almost zero, and if I pick up masturbating again later, it's a painful trickle of fluid at first, when everyone says it's supposed to be an ungodly explosion of cum. Like my body just thinks, "Well, clearly you're not using this anymore, so let's just turn off that system and save resources for other things." There is some logic to this, as in many wild animals, whenever it's not the breeding season, they experience testicular atrophy and lower hormone levels. It's entirely possible that the same condition exists in humans, to some degree; when there aren't any mates available, things just shut down.

In any case, it seems that all of these benefits (being hornier, cumming more, exercising self-control, etc) can be achieved by orgasm control/denial through edging. You also can't masturbate for hours on end every single day when you're so pent-up it only takes a few minutes of touching to get you to the brink. The advantage is that it doesn't have any of those other drawbacks.
