I notice Nofap has become very popular in recent years despite its faulty logic.
Nofap is a classic situation of correlation being confused with causation.
Many Nofap followers/practitioners claim that it will give you more energy, allow you to become more focused, confident with women, productive, and improved social skills.
These Nofap folks know very well that there are large groups of men in society that endlessly masturbate and have little social skills and confidence with women.
However they are intentionally grandstanding and gaslighting the situation to suggest that it is the choice of endlessly masturbating that is causing these men's personal deficiencies.
Again excessive masturbation and sexual frustration is possibly correlated to having poor social/dating skills, lack of dating skills, xyz but it is not the CAUSE of it.
This is similar to the marketing tactics used by PUA course guys who try to convince you to buy their courses to get better at talking to girls.
Most of us here know the evidence of genetics, upbringing, and environment have the utmost influence on human development.
Many Nofap theories claim masturbating lowers testosterone but this is not true:
I have had to go a week without masturbating once due to excessive travel and obligations....it was quite literally a painful experience as I got blue balls and extreme sexual
arousal. I know that mike tyson used to jerk off before fights because he needed to calm himself and he would still dominate opponents.
Bottom line: I think it is a stupid movement for stupid people
