What does /r9k/ think of nofap?

Where is the scientific evidence to support it?

The picture says it all. Why would a person purposely lower testosterone? Fapping takes about 5 minutes a day but it feels good and is just as basic a part of daily hygiene as brushing your teeth or getting 8 hours of sleep. Ignore physical needs at your own risk. If s person wants to lower testosterone nofap doesn't even lower by that much. Andro blockers are more effective.

Fapping reduces the risk of prostate cancer and testicular cancer, by flushing out old fluids.

9 out of 10 doctors recommend you brush your teeth and fap afterwards.

>>38530272
Nofap is recommended for a lot of different reasons, I disagree with all, some more than others.

people today truly are getting more and more desperate to find a magical way to "solve" their shitty existence

>>38530337
yet here you are browsing r9k huh?

>>38530381
Nofap has its charms though. Doing something to fix your life is hard and requires a lot of effort. I can't blame them for wanting an easy fix, just don't do something. Requires no effort. If only it had any kind of benefit, I would be all over such a solution.

>>38530381
people back then didn't jerk off to porn on a daily basis

>>38530448
>masturbation was discovered in year 2007, and plunged the world into an eternal darkness where people had orgasms now and then

>>38530427
Stopping masturbation is way harder than you think it is if you're like most of the cucks on this board which is why it works. It's like saying no to one of the most powerful drugs your body is willing to give you for free on demand.

A lot of men rather stay home and watch porn instead of trying to get laid. This takes away power from women since we no longer need them and therefore they came up with nofap. I mean just think about... the goal of nofap is to cuck yourself so hard you just have to get a woman, even a fat and ugly one, just to achieve sexual release. I, for one, will continue fapping until my dick falls off.

'nofap' is a gimmic. People preach it for the same reasons people preach pseudosciences because they think it should/ has resulted in favourable results.
However, daily or even more regular fapping has negative impacts on the mind and how sex is percieved.
Just fap in moderation (maybe once every 2-3 days or whenever urges strike and if you're really worried about testosterone do 3x15 full crutches with 10 second rest after every fap to increase testosterone levels

>>38530519
It's not the teensiest bit hard. Have you ever done it? I often go a few days without realizing I haven't fapped in a while. If people do it on accident then you can't call it hard. It's like saying no to something that doesn't have any addicting qualities. It feels good, but so does having a nice dinner. Just like food you know it's good for you but when you're too busy or tired it's easy to find it pushed back a couple days. Fortunately the body can go longer without fapping than it can food.

>>38530481
If you can orgasm to some 10/10 grill without making any effort than why would you even bother to go outside or do anything about your life.

>>38530619
Is this a serious question? Men are different from women, we have a refractory period. Besides that I lose interest in sex after orgasm for a couple days. I go outside and do things with my life because I enjoy it. Why would you make any effort or bother to go outside when you can lay around inside not fapping all day?

>going outside and doing shit with your life
wtf are you even doing here get out

>>38530295
There isn't any, there's a study that says you gain a negligible boost in it after a week of nofap but even that starts diminishing as your body readjusts. The rest is just broscience of faggots claiming that it motivated them to go out and find a woman since they can't just fap to relieve themselves, if you're a robot you're not going to actually do this though, you'll eventually just get frustrated and go back to jerking it since if you had the ability to get a girl you probably would have done it before going on some meme, it's really just for normies in a slump.

>>38530272

Honestly i only fap when i dont see my girl for 2 - 3 days and i get horny.

Regular sex feeds all of your apetites anon!

>>38530618
Sounds like you have low sex drive, a symptom of low test btw

>>38530381
What do you expect when woman are all just fucking chads through tinder and not bothering to date like they used to, what are people supposed to do but look for a magical cure to a problem that won't go away until the birthrate drops so low it's unsustainable and the government steps in?

>>38530337

Not OP but i fuck my gf, better than masturbating

>>38530743
I'm sick of this rebbit shit. Do you even know what a neet is? We aren't pathetic wagies and normalfags like you.

kys

>>38530774
I haven't been tested yet, but I'm sure it's low. For about 6 months I experimented with test, 125mg/wk of ug testosterone enanthate. I felt like a totally different man. I'd love to get back on it but lost my source and 2lazy to get another. I'm not about to try and purposely lower it even more by doing nofap though.

I have nothing to really offer a woman so why stop now ?

>>38530828
Nofap doesn't actually have any effect on testosterone levels, it just forces you to go get your feel good drugs the way you're supposed to like going outside and meeting people instead of sticking your dick in onaholes all day

>>38530912
Because if you did than you would have something to offer? If you work out instead of being a fat autist all day maybe you'll get somewhere in life.

>>38531118
But women also want money and I barely have enough to waste on a woman

Fapping isn't the problem, porn is what causes these problems.

>>38531383
I second this post fuck nofap

a boost in temporary testosterone isnt going to make my skull change shape or make me taller so there isnt really a point is there

>>38530272
There are better ways if increasing test than nofap

>cold showers
>better diet
>more exercise
>having sex (sorry /r9k/)
>getting more sunlight

Too many anime catgirls to worry about that

Fap has nothing to do with this.

Do you wanna more testosterone?
Work out and eat zinc. That's the way.

>>38530974
How is 5 minutes before falling asleep all day exactly? My feel good drugs come in the form of coffee each morning(black) and wine at night(red). People should just fap when they want to and focus on their life instead of worrying about other men touching their own dicks.

>>38530774
Theres a difference between having a high sex drive and being addicted to internet porn. A pretty big difference actually. The difference between your brain telling you to go have sex with a woman or telling you to go look at porn. One is an instinct and the other is an impulse.

>>38532520
Injection is the way. The increase is far higher. Then there is the study that compared weight gain between people who sat around doing nothing while receiving supraphysiological levels and natties who followed a beginner trength routine. Not only weight gain, but the couch potatoes also had higher 3RM than the natty trainers. This was on a low level too, something like 300mg/wk.

>>38533904
>Injection is the way. The increase is far higher.

Are you retarded? Such injections greatly decrease your natural body output, so retards who fall for Testosterone meme and inject themselfs usually get real health later on

>>38533969
>real health problems
Fixed

>>38533969
Why does someone with higher than natural levels care about natural production? Needles are scary and hurty, but pick a long ester and it can be done once a month without much trouble. Every two weeks is what I plan to do, more stable bloods and all that shit. Health problems are a meme, do cardio and watch your bloods.

>>38530272
Bad for robots and its all placebo
The only reason someone might get a woman because of nofap is because they cant relieve themselves, and they go out and seek women. Might also do some dumb things just to get their dick in someones pussy. You don't do this as a robot, obviously. You get frustrated more likely. Worst part is if you buy into this bullshit, you will get depressed and feel like shit when you do fap, and why is that? Because you think all your "progress" is gone and you have ruined everything by that. It's not good for a robot. Fapping in moderation is good, I don't deny watching porn for many hours a day and fapping several times might be bad, although if you have the time and nothing to do and don't mind the time you spent to that then ehh, why not?
I myself feel like moderation is the best, few times a week, sometimes when I don't feel like it I don't fap more than once or twice a week. I used to watch porn for hours and that was kinda shit because of the time wasted for such a thing but in moderation its all good

>>38534099
>Health problems are a meme
Hormonal problems arent a meme, tard.

>Why does someone with higher than natural levels care about natural production?

Because your own testosteron would not be producing without these injections, you would be basically dependant on them.

These injections are meant for people whose testosterone production is already barely existant or non existant at all

>>38534127
>moderation
Fucking lmao, "moderation". Fapping is an addiction. Just like drinking in moderation. You think it's just a glass of win with dinner but then you black out and close thirty tabs of sommelier articles wondering where the last couple hours went. Moderation is the biggest meme ever invented.

>>38534208
Everything you do is an addiction. Literally everything

>>38530272
>tfw all the characteristics on the right but horny all day

>>38534192
What hormonal problems? You mean the 'problem' where you have high levels of test and don't produce them anymore because the body is already getting it? Not a problem, it's the entire fucking point of injecting to begin with. No shit you are dependent on exogenous testosterone if you want supraphysiological levels. If you don't want that then don't worry about it, injecting isn't meant for you. You are wrong about who it is meant for. It is meant for people who want more testosterone. Natural production has very little to do with it. Even bodybuilders inject testoerone, and they usually begin with above average test levels, or at least what is considered normal for men in the 18-120 age range. 18 year old with geriatric test levels? totally normal, but the kid probably isn't happy with it. 190lb bodybuilder with very high test? He's also unhappy with it so he gets on the juice to hit 230lbs. Try reading up on the subject before spewing such nonsense. If you are worried about low natural production you would take something that increases natural production, not replace test which only further suppresses production.

You're a smart guy. We would probably be friends IRL

>>38530272
Over 200 days in. Barely any changes besides you stop being horny eventually.
