My 5 Weeks No Fap, Semen Retention, Zero P0rn Journey!

[soulforge]

Dude, if you talk to the forum with a minuscule hint of with chicks, I can see why you are still hung up on your 24 year old ex that saw right through you.

A sheep in a wolf’s outfit

I are you still upset about me picking on your name and making you feel dirty about your jacking off habits, Relax bro it was a joke, you can't be bitter and emotional, and resentful like that, over a few words.

If you're feelings where hurt, I oplogise.

Will a link to the p0rnhub help you feel better lol

It's crazy how girls notice these things. I had two girls on the train commute to work, give me stares and giggle amongst themselves in a flirty manner, repeatedly looking at me.

It was quite a surreal experience.

Well even Pook wrote about it in his "sexual energy" posts.

@soulforge what's actually benefitting you, the no fap or no porn? Serious question.

I agree porn can be damaging but you do not need porn to jerk off. In moderation, it can actually be good for you, healthy even, mentally and physically, again in moderation.

I just read an article this morning about the benefits to masturbating from menshealth.com. I uploaded it on a different thread but deleted as it was off topic.

You talk about porn and fap as being linked together, like you can't have one without the other.

Not true at all, you can use your imagination when fapping, imagine your hottest trashiest sexual encounter, fantasize! You can put those porn films to shame using your own imagination.

It's been said the brain is actually the most powerful sexual organ in the body which imo is 100% true!

I dunno man you do you and if the no fap is benefiting you, more power to ya..

Watching porn is a different thing and other than providing an escape from the everyday humdrum, there are no health benefits (mentally or physically) that I know of..

No worries mate I will try explain.

By the way, this is something I decided to try out as an experiment, who knows, I might change my mind down the line, but currently I feel the benefits of zero P0rn & no fap.

In regards to your point on viewing P0rn in moderation.

That's like trying to use heroin in moderation lol

We all know that P0rn is highly addictive to the vast majority of men, especially the dudes who are not getting sex on a consistent basis.. Moderation can only be applied by the few, who are strong minded & deciplined & those who are getting sex consistently from maybe a regular LTR.

Most men don't have that level of discipline & neither do they have access to regular vagina.. Therefore P0rn becomes a constant crutch for them.

For me personally, I don't do too bad with the ladies & I don't mind going without P0rn and fap, because I know I can bust a huuuuge load in a chick every few weeks or so.

My personal experience with fapping is, I kinda felt dirty Jacking off on a regular basis. I also felt less motivated to go out and talk to girls and cold approach.

I agree with you, a person can fap just using the imagination, however you're imagination may become your daily addiction to fapping.

Besides going through longer periods of Semen Retention, I have found that I feel more energetic, my workouts are stronger, I feel more confident.. I seem to be getting more attention from females in my daily interactions, my face looks better, so does my skin.

The benefits seem it be worth it for me, for now.

I actually cold approached a girl yesterday and got a date arranged with her Friday night, if things go well, will likely be unleashing a jizz explosion in her & I will just get back on the Semen Retention thing again till I have actual sex again.

Apologies I realize I wasn't clear on that. I meant jerking off in moderation can be beneficial. Not porn.

According to menshealth.com anyway. I can upload the link if you're interested, the article listed about ten benefits, mentally and physically.

Porn is NOT healthy but occasionally can add a diversion I suppose. In a relationship I have found when watched together it can enhance the experience.

Everything in moderation is my motto.

If you want some anecdotal motivation and affirmation, head over to deaddit and checkout out the sub semenretention. Search by Top post then all time.

noticed the habit has been corrupting my mind too and making me very very thirsty with women and sex

I am on about day 5 of no fap I was in gym earlier and this 21y/o HB 7 blonde approaches me to ask if she can use the machine with me

( for anyone unfamiliar with gym ettiequte this is very unusual and means she definitely wants you to talk to her)

Also this is the first time this has happened in MONTHS

Wether women can sense the boost in your testosterone from no fap I don't know , but looking at this thread it would seem others are experiencing a boost in interest too

I had a similar problem. I recall having sex with this HB8, when she left my house, I waited 2 hours and then jacked off to P0RN.

I found it odd, that even though I am having sex with an attractive woman on a regular basis, I still need P0rn in my life.

With no fap & no Porn, I seem to have found a nice balance.

When I watched P0rn i was always thirsty for hot, kinky sex & if a hot woman wasn't available, I would find it very frustrating.

At the moment, I don't feel overly (thirsty), yet I feel horny enough to have sex.

To put it simply.. I feel horny, but not desperate horny to the point where it's frustrating!!

I feel cool and calm talking to girls on cold approach, without desperation in my body language.

And yeh dude.. I don't quite understand it, it's happened to me twice.. Both occasions girls staring and giggling in a very flirty way.

And on a daily basis now, seeing girls making eye contact for much longer.

Oh yeh I have done that too several times.

Watch Porn with my plate or my girlfriend, I think that's pretty healthy.

However I had this one girlfriend who I used to watch porn with, she found out that I had been watching porn on my own too, and she got annoyed about that.

Lol woman logic that is

I'm not a huge fan of the idea of semen retention, I've seen some evidence that not ejaculating may be a risk factor for prostate cancer.

With this out of the way, there is one huge benefit that I see with this "no fap" stuff, which is the elimination of pornography. I think looking at nude photos of attractive women is normal. However, I believe that when you have such readily available access to pornographic videos is when you get into trouble. I think a lot of men that get into sex addiction or really weird/more extreme kinky stuff is due to excessive watching of pornography. I like to compare it to drug use. For a normal man, seeing an attractive woman with her legs spread and ***** out should be enough to stimulate/arouse you. However, when men start watching pornography they may start getting into a territory where they need increasingly more novelty to get aroused. Hot women with standard sex doesn't really cut it anymore, then the next thing you know they start getting into weird face ****ing stuff, choking or whatever. This eventually loses it's novelty and then even more extreme stuff is needed for arousal. This is where you start getting into men that are literally needing to hire escorts to fulfill weird desires that a normal woman would never be willing to do. Stuff like wanting a woman to wear a strap on and **** them or some other **** where you want a woman to do oral play on your anal area lol........though I question if those men are just deep down homosexual lol.

Anything that eliminates this overly dopamine stimulative activity is a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

Yeh absolutely this.. It's a downwards spiral in degenracy.

I mean the dudes who get addicted to the Teen P0rn, after months/years of watching 18 year olds getting smashed in P0rnography, they must get to a point where they start to think.. ok the 18 year old isn't doing it for me anymore.. Maybe I can find a 17 year old... We know where this is heading right

I haven't watched any P0rn in Seven weeks, definitely my brain feels like it's gone through some rewireing.

Just dawned on me a downside to no fap/Semen Retention... You will find it more difficult to sleep at night.. Your body and mind is so much more energetic and ready to go, that sleeping becomes a struggle.

This is true if you're not watching porn, not masturbating, and not getting laid on a regular basis. You are more energetic and ready to go but that's because your body is desiring the feel of a woman and an orgasmic release within sex.

I think there's validity to this idea but it won't make that much of a difference. It's worth doing no porn/no fap for this reason. However, even when doing no porn/no fap and trying to find new women, it's still a difficult effort. The vast majority of stranger approaches in real life will still fail when doing no porn/no fap. It's possible that a man doing no porn/no fap will be more aggressive in doing approaches (I believe that's been somewhat true for me over time) but approaching strangers is still a very challenging path.

True.. but the reason for doing no fap/no porn should not be Simply to improve your chances with woman.

It should be first and foremost to break the P0rn addiction, which is a very unhealthy habit.

It should also motivate you to have sex with actual females, by meeting them in social circles, cold approach or even online.

The extra attention you might from chicks when on semen retention is just a little bonus, like the cherry on top.

I really think there needs to be a better discussion around the difference between No Fap and stopping the viewing of Pornography. It always seems like the discussion falls in on itself as people talking about them both as the same thing and discussing their pros/cons together rather than being discrete activities to a certain degree. While stopping both can be beneficial depending on the circumstance and person, equating the two tends to muddy the waters regarding how bad Porn can be for dopamine, healthy sense of self etc.. It fails men who might simply benefit from removing the porn from their life while continuing to masturbate (using their imagination etc as others have stated).
