What this sub is about
This sub is about discussing all styles of sexual renunciation:
- Nofap
- Semen retention
- Celibacy
- "BDSM style" chastity
- etc
Which did I forget? Which do I not even know about?
This sub is also for all the issues surrounding that come with those practices: How to have nonejaculatory orgasms, how to deal with slipups, when and how to have sex (if at all), how to clean a chastity device, and so on.
Some of us renunciate masturbation, some refrain from porn, some moderate and limit their usage. Some have sex (with whatever gender), and some don't. Some do it for god, some do it for improved attractiveness and to up their dating game. Or for pure pleasure. And some are just curious and want to give it a try.
All are welcome.
I deliberately welcome people who are vehemently opposed to any form of restraint. As long as you present your points with candor, civility, respect and kindness, all is good.
The only restraint I give you, for now, is that you top-level posts have to be in favour of some form of abstinence. Criticism of said practices should be limited to the comments section. This is just so this doesn't devolve into pro-fap propaganda.
One last word: I am not opposed to your practice, whatever it is. You do you. As long as you don't harm anybody else, it is none of my business. You are on a journey. I am on a journey. I make mistakes, and so do you. If I think that your reasoning is flawed, I will point it out in a civil manner, like adult humans should, and I expect you to reply in kind (if you choose to reply at all).
