You can stop watching porn and jerking off and you will feel a lot more energy and other health benefits.

It actually works. Called semen retention if you want to find out more about it.

    If semen retention was actually true then you could just get a vasectomy and you'd never lose your semen again no matter how many loads you blew.

    Imo the benefits are all psychological. That's why some people report it changed their life while others say nothing happened.

    Im certainly not saying it changed my life. Some people are also saying that the eyes start to glow. :) There must be some reasonable thinking going on as well I think.

    But yeah, I noticed higher physical energy after a week or so. Its simply because the body loses energy when you jerk off, so if you dont do it, you have a lot more. I dont know, its not psychological to me, not that part. I can feel more energy, thats all.

    Started having daily 30 minute fast walks to balance it out a little bit but still feel like moving much more now.

    There's zero scientific evidence for that, to the contrary in fact, regular masturbation is important for long term prostate health.

    There are so many books written about the Middle Earth... I guess elves are real!

    The fact that their name is 1984 makes me think they missed the point of that book. LoL

    You're not wrong. People are downvoting because that's the perspective of the audience here. They're only here for a minute while they're taking a break between porn sessions. They're probably incapable of getting hard in the presence of a real woman. They're probably overweight and out of shape and have low self-esteem and poor social skills. That's what porn does to people.

    I downvoted it because it's pseudo-scientific nonsense

    Signed, fit man who has hours of le sexy sex with 3d girls and also watches porn and ejaculates average once a day

    So what now? I suppose I'm an outlier? Or just lying perhaps? Oh wait I've got one! If I didn't watch porn I'd have triple sexier sex, right?

    Bro why the mean attitude

    There's a lot of reason to downvote besides that, and I didn't even downvote myself.

    If it's real it should be very easy to produce peer-reviewed results showing that conclusion.

    Unless such evidence is presented, believing "semen retention" is anything is about as founded as believing in crystals or astrology.

    Porn is kinda like alcohol. It's poison & the worst drug & most people are addicted to it so it will never be illegal or frowned upon. Oh but wait, there are some jurisdictions where those things are indeed illegal and/or strongly limited/regulated. Because they are powerful & harmful things.
