I haven't. I think the idea is as ridiculous as healthy drinkers attending Alcoholics' Anonymous.


:curious:

The idea isn't ridiculous if you want more confidence in pulling girls, it also shows a massive willpower.

Trust me it takes a lot of effort to abstain :rolleyes:

There's no credible evidence that it enhances your confidence.

I'm sure it does take willpower, but then this isn't a good reason to do it unless you have something to prove to yourself or others.

Are you saying you chain-masturbate? If that is the case then, consistent with what I've already said, fapstinence may be a good idea, though I think professional help is likely to be more effective.


No... how would I be able to chain-masturbate when I experience deep remorse following each session? Regardless, I'd never seek professional help on this topic anyway, when fapstinence may as well just solve all my problems.

Alright, I know you're not a science guy so I'll try explain in layman terms. You don't need credible evidence that it enhances confidence, the science behind this fact is actually quite simple.

As you know a mans body is full of the hormone testosterone which is responsible for loads of things including sex drive and libido and muscle growth etc. anyway if you abstain from masturbating for at least 6 days your hormone level spikes increasing sex drive and libido.

Now imagine a young male craving for sex with high levels of testosterone pumping in his body at a club, and a guy whos just jacked off 5 hours before going to the club. Who do you think is more likely to approach the girl?

Now I'm saying that one person will be more confident than the other guy but abstaining definitely will increase your desire to talk to woman and to try and bed them :yep:

Have you gone for a week without masturbation from a lifestyle of masturbating every other day? The extra horniness makes me soooo much more confident around women. Although confidence maybe the incorrect word.

If you don't have the willpower to masturbate without porn how are you going to muster the willpower to go without both?

Let me know when they are finished :smile:

The fact that I am not studying a science subject at university is not reason to believe I do not have a strong understanding. If you are a 'science man' yourself I would have thought you'd appreciate the important of empirical evidence before jumping to such conclusions.

I understand the argument. I do not accept that it is credible when it does not have any evidence to support itself. Increased levels of testosterone =/= increased confidence, and even if it did, it would be incredibly pathetic to have to feel you needed to go to such lengths to be summon the courage to talk to a member of the opposite sex.

LOL, Don't give in brother!
My instagram feed, which I will never be able to abstain from, is full of sexy big breasted and curvy ladies in lingerie but it's all good :rolleyes:.

I can masturbate without porn with ease but it's just not as pleasuring and so I don't see the point. I believe going without one is the same as going without both.

I do't need to. It is extremely rare for me but it would be fun :yep:

I have been staring at your picture speechless and in awe for the past hour or so. That deep gaze in your eyes, your perfect smile, all of your features just seem to all come together so well, almost angelical in a sense I suppose. The reason I am writing this is to let you know that I think I have found the most beautiful woman to grace us with her presence on our planet, and I am of course talking about you. I know this might mean absolutely nothing to you, and you probably get many of these types of messages/posts on TSR and in real life BUT please understand that I am being as genuine as ever when I say that you are the ultimate dictionary definition of perfection, and I hope that one day God can bestow me with a woman as beautiful as you, I would be forever grateful. I hope that this message finds you well, I do not care if I get a response to this, I am just simply stating the obvious and had to let you know how I really felt.

Of course I do, but this isn't something you can carry out empirical evidence on. If you are a 'Law Man' yourself you will understand you don't always have the empirical evidence you want when trying to convict someone of murder.

You can't just dismiss the argument because of no empirical evidence when such evidence cannot be obtained so easily. Oh really? So people with social anxiety who have confidence issues who can barely speak to the same sex are pathetic? I think you just called the whole of TSR pathetic :wink:

You just ruined my innocent veiw of you:sad:

do you think that guy realises you're a guy:lolwut:
Masturbation is definitely a natural human process and has been for centuries but I don't think many people realize how strong of a hold pornography has over their lives, especially since it's seen as something wholely natural in the western sphere.

I'm going to see how long I can last, in.
