January '15 No-Fap Challenge vol: the entire year is too much

To be honest i never believed the no fap movement and always thought it was placebo...BUT i figured id give it a try and see whats it about to find out the results for myself... and even if no fap doesnt work according to that article you can still learn a lot from no fap like i have myself... first off its not normal to look at pr0n all day everyday and fap to it and its just a bad habit in general... what no fap does is make you more willing to pursue women and be more social because you have no other way to get your "rocks off"... AND you start to realize that pr0n takes up so much times that you can be more productive doing other things than staring in front of your computer all day

The article isnt against NoFap. As it states, it could have a incidental positive impact. (self control maybe) Although, it does state that the effects of masturbation and porn are vastly overstated. People think about sex everyday, whether it's about your GF/Wife ect. or a porn star, you have mental images. There is nothing wrong with masturbation, what may seem "a lot" to you, may not be to someone else.


While I was in undergrad (about an hour away from my then GF now wife, I saw her once a week) and away for internships (for months at a time) I would fap damn near everyday. When my wife would come see me for a weekend, my pipe game was still on point and never experienced erectile dysfunction. That's why in the article he states that the effects of porn and masturbation and the main motivator of "NoFap" is overly simplistic.
 

That doesn't even make sense..

Not to yiu but the science guy...

Too much of ANYTHING is detrimental to your health.

I don't think he insinuated that isnt the case, but the subjectivity of it. People say "A lot of porn is bad for you", but high levels of evidence has suggested otherwise. How much is "too much"?

I hear what you trying to say and from your perspective pr0n/fapping everyday for you is not bad... BUT for other people they use it as a crutch and wont even try to get a girl OR get some boody and have no incentive since they can just fap and look at pr0n for that fix

If you start watching a porno and within three seconds you have a boner but when you have a naked girl in front of you you can aroused, you may have a porn problem.

That's what i think the article was missing. We're in a day in age where there's so much high speed high definition porn. I don't think there's even been any research done yettosee how high speed internet has contributed to this pandemic of porn addiction.

I see what youre saying, but that is debatable. Reason being is that a lot of men have performance anxiety. Seeing a naked woman in person (and intimidating for the non experienced or if you really like a chick) is different than seeing one on a computer screen. Someone who hasn't had a lot of sexual interaction may be insecure about the way they perform and may not get an erection.

I think the variable of "high speed internet" and super HD 4K porn is trivial. It's a similar argument people in Colorado and Washington state were using to legalize marijuana. Correlating access and availability with increased addiction/use. Which so far has not been true.

High speed internet has a HUGE impact

Literally hours upon hours of varying degrees of porn through a few clicks ...

Compared to a few videos on vhs


How hard was it to find a did with Asian ****** porn ?

Pretty tough

Now, you can get that easy... And going to the extremes with fetishes, searching for more shocking and hardcore stuff is why high speed internet has a huge effect
 
From personal experience I definitely knew when I was watching too much porn and fapping too much. Sex just wasn't as satisfying

I'm skeptical of how damaging it is mentally and I'm mainly doing this to become more disciplined
 
Idk about y'all but that penis size thread got me itching for that fap

That's such a small niche, though. If you are into that kind of stuff, you are going to get access to it regardless of the means. This generation is a technology generation. Kids spend hours upon hours playing video games, some have even died from getting blood clots for sitting for so long without taking breaks. To me, that is more of a threat to health than porn. Also, kids today communicate differently. They rather communicate via Facebook messenger, Twitter DM, ect. They sit in the house all day, become bored and fap. That isnt the fault of high speed internet.

Look at it like this. You know your body better than anyone else, so you know what makes you tick. Truth be told, and orgasm is an emotional thing you have between you and the chick. Sex satisfaction will be dependent on your feelings for the girl. Do I have science to validate that? No, that's from personal experience.

I can't seem to go a whole month without ******* up. Last time it was 2 weeks, and today I gave in after 9 days... And today I saw a girl I really wanted to mangle [emoji]128532[/emoji][emoji]128532[/emoji][emoji]128532[/emoji][emoji]128532[/emoji][emoji]128532[/emoji] She probably smelled it on me. I feel like crap. And tomorrow is the Big 12 at my job. Going to be around all kinds of girls that are going to know I just fapped [emoji]128542[/emoji][emoji]128542[/emoji][emoji]128542[/emoji][emoji]128542[/emoji][emoji]128542[/emoji] I was doing so good too. Feel like the epitome of fecal matter right now.

I didn't follow through for February but I'm back on as of this monday. I believe that would put me 3 days in. LOL no where near my current best of 90.

I'm gonna go semi-hard mode though. Meaning that no masturbating, no porn, no sex UNLESS she asks for it. Otherwise I'm not trying for it.
