It drains you of vital nutrients which are used to keep your brain in healthy order. By masturbating, you are permanently impairing the function of your brain, destroying your motivation and creating a perfect environment for depression based on false expectations of fulfillment.

A person had to avoid having intercourse on quarter or full moons and on days when there were great winds, rain, fog, cold or heat, thunder, lightning, darkness over heaven and earth, solar and lunar eclipses, rainbows and earthquakes. Having intercourse at these times would harm a man's spirit and would cause women to become ill. Children conceived at these times would be mad, stupid, perverse or foolish; mute, deaf, crippled or blind; unfilial and violent.

transcending fragile/anti-fragile paradigm: having regular sex every night with gf but withholding ejeculation and letting your boner peacefully dissapate after your gf has been pleasured, thereby generating highly concentrated levels of Chi energy but without losing any of it in ejaculation, leading one to become a god-king with mastery over all 7 of the worlds.

And you would not need to because the human reproduction rate is slow as fuck and it also generally takes a couple of loads to get a human female pregnant.
