Semen retention has been practiced for thousands of years, and by some of the most remarkable individuals who have ever lived. It's no meme. The benefits are real and better than CNS stimulants.
Nofap as a forum is a meme because of their tepid lukewarm approach and vulgar speech which only induces one to failure.

The balls don't get heavy with abstinence, and to think they do or even laugh at this is an ignorant view of anatomy and physiology. When you ejaculate your scrotum does not "empty"; it is not a bladder. Only 3-5% of the semen is comprised of sperm, which comes from the testes within. "Blue Balls", vasocongestion, only arises during prolonged arousal where the body gears up for release increasing the production seminal fluid and speeding the migration of sperm up the vasa deferentia in expectation of soon release. The discomfort experienced, is from interrupting this, effectively leaving the systems temporarily overloaded, which is best remedied with release. Had abstinence been practiced mentally and stimuli avoided, the entire episode could have been averted. It arose, not because of an accumulation of semen but rather the process of arousal, which was provoked and entertained by the individual, and such actions defeat the point and benefit of abstinence in the first place.
One can be abstinent indefinitely without any discomfort. The genitals actually feel lighter with prolonged abstinence.

I genuinely feel sorry for people who fell for the NoFap meme. When you get so desperate about the state of your life that you actually believe not touching your dick will change anything. It's like a 7 year old little kid with cancer putting all his faith in astrology
it's sad

>When you get so desperate about the state of your life that you actually believe not touching your dick will change anything.
Sexual activity is the most important goal as far as evolution is concerned, which is why it provokes immense pleasure; behind that pleasure a cocktail of neurochemical, hormonal, and physiological changes occurring behind the scenes, affecting the body and mind more profoundly than any other "natural" action. Arousal itself affects working memory; sexual activity squanders limited dopaminergic pathways to be obsessed with something that is never satisfied beyond 30 minutes, and in fact, often is reinforced, until most people are but worthless dicks for brains; after the act is completed, there is a rebound of prolactin, which remains substantially elevated for 16+ hours following release, where it continues to adversely affects dopaminergic neurotransmission in prefrontal cortex long after the refractory period has subsided.

You are a fool to think that nothing happens and that sexual activity can be engaged in with impunity. Not touching it, and eschewing all sexual activity, is a life-changer.

Quitting this has been the biggest burden lifted in my entire life. The benefits of sexual abstinence are more profound than CNS stimulants.
Before, I had dozens of books that wanted to read but didn't. Sure, I got through life just fine but I accomplished very little beyond what I had to do, and whatever I did do required mostly discipline. With resolute sexual abstinence, I do not need discipline. I have boundless motivation and energy. I can write, I can read. I listen to courses. I do many things. When I'm not abstinent, I do very little, my entire life is a frustration that gets in the way of momentary release. You have never experienced the immense benefits it provides and are left bewildered. You are a carnal bugman who cannot even begin to contemplate why anyone would want to give this up, or how it possibly can make a difference.
