The NoFap meme needs to die.

[Enigmatic93]

In just about every male dominated community the meme of NoFap has reared it's ugly head. I fell for this stupid meme for a month and got none of the superpowers it promised. Call me a conspiracy theorist but I feel like NoFap is a giant ploy to make men more thirsty for women and give women even more power over them than they already do. Just like, prostitution and sex robots, women see pornography and mastubation as a threat to their power in the sexual marketplace. NoFap has no scientific evidence behind any of the so called "benefits" aside from that study proving that there's a slight increase of testosterone after 7 days and that it then goes back to baseline. Regarding the whole dopamine thing, they have simply extrapolated from animal models of substance addiction and sexual behaviour and applied them to humans.

Obviously if you're watching porn all and wanking like 8 times a day you're clearly addicted and you're going to see benefits when you quit, but that goes for just about anything. If you're like a normal guy and watch porn and wank for a few minutes once a night before bed, nothing is going to happen. 

I feel like  NoPorn/NoFap has blown up into something dangerous that will ultimately end up creating more sexually frustrated men that will end up doing stupid shit to relieve their sexual frustration.

And no incelman, not fapping does not make you forget about that fact that you need women. If anything it will make you do stupid shit that you regret doing and will make you even more frustrated.

porn is the problem, not masturbation.

I know from personal experience that fapping every day gives me ADHD and increased libido, while prolonged abstinence (>15 days) makes the ADHD disappear and strongly reduces my libido

I guess everyone is different.

Yeah that's weird. Most people report wanting to fuck their couch after a couple weeks on NoFap. Myself included.

Ugliness is the problem.

I am extremely horny during:

- The first five days of nofap
- The 10th day (no idea why, but this is always a big barrier to cross)

Then it's like an oscillating curve, I have no sex drive most of the time (which is an exhilarating feeling) and some days there is a strong libido outburst that is very hard to resist, but eventually goes away when your brain realizes he ain't getting his fix

My record is 73 days. I relapsed because I was very stressed out due to an exam, and wanted to quickly reduce my anxiety. I regret having done that, since according to legend, you can fully eliminate your sex drive after a certain amount of months.

From an evolutionary perspective it may make sense: when you can't get sex, your brain focuses on survival instead (in the forlorn hope that your luck may turn at some distant point in the future), and the best way to survive as an omega ape is having no sex drive.

/r/NoFap is full of broscience and stupid PUA/TRP nonsense. "A girl looked in my general direction for 2 secs, Nofap works!". Pornfree is much better imo.

Exactly. People here who believe in NoFap should reasd the nofap subreddit. It's full of r/trp esque cope. I'd never want to associate with a movement that aligns itself with pua tier cope bullshit.
