These are some wild takes I have only ever seen on lemmy. I mean you can argue about the need for public proclamation, but “nofap” has a lot of self-esteem, social benefits. There are two different worlds, one where you fep, the other where you are giddy and horny and fepless.
Pretty sure you can comfortably argue the whole thing. No doubt there are benefits both sides depending on the individual and their circumstances, but I have never heard anyone outside internet even mention “nofap” or equivalents. I know zero people who would’ve even just mentioned it. So anyone I have ever known would also have these “wild takes”. Pretty sure none of them are in lemmy, and it’s not much wider a set if I include those that realistically could be but I just don’t know. So I’ve only ever seen your take in memes about incels and now, in lemmy, right here.
You could argue that the stigma on Masturbation fuels the self esteem etc problems and the improvement once people address it.
If it works for some, great!
Btw not saying there isn’t a lot of rotten stuff about the porn industry, sexy-economics and stuff. Still, just gaving a good wank is great.
