   Most of these benefits come from exercising and eating better. I think they're linking their better habits and accomplishments to one single monolith of not fapping anymore.

     Also concerning these subcultures...
     
     > There’s publicity the other way: sexual dysfunction scares, loss of motivation, preferring virtual porn to real girls, YourBrainOnPorn.com and various internet subcultures, but these movements don’t actually stop people from using. Logically speaking they should, but the simple fact is they don’t. Even the health risks listed from peer-reviewed studies on YourBrainOnPorn.com aren’t enough to stop an adolescent from starting.
     
     > Ironically, the most powerful force in this confusion is the user themselves. It’s a fallacy that users are weakwilled or physically weak people. You have to be physically strong in order to cope with an addiction after you know it exists. Perhaps the most painful aspect is that they place themselves as unsuccessful losers and insufferable introverts. It’s likely that a friend could be more interesting in person if they hadn’t put themselves down for seeking self-pleasure.
     meso repeated this.

     @djsumdog @Kyonko802 The real argument against fapping is that is basically a substance dependency (namely Dopamine). That's it.

     @sun @Kyonko802 @djsumdog It may help, but replacing God with nofap goes a little too far. I mainly want to escape from Internet porn, because it is a waste of time. Also the person most enthusiastic about it I know IRL is a huge asshole.
