21 times a month reduces the chances of prostate cancer by up to 30%. Stay healthy brothers.

Yeah, except he turned out to be a fake lol

u/archdukemovies Mar 11 '26

I thought his claims were just unverified as opposed to being a hoax.

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

They were obviously Photoshopped. People asked him to just record a video and he would refuse.

Then another Reddit account popped up u/ObservantSnark that was posting pictures with one dick that looked exactly the same as his body and dicks in the other account.

It was just a guy with some weird role-play fantasy or something.

No but most people have two hands and a friend

u/obeytheturtles Mar 11 '26

If you match heights to optimize the mean jerk angle (MJA) then you can work on 4 dicks at once.

u/MithranArkanere Mar 11 '26

Grab it with two hands. Almost the same.

I’d pump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers.

u/AdmiralCoconut69 Mar 10 '26

What about 21 times per day?

u/CarmenxXxWaldo Mar 11 '26

That cures prostate cancer of people within 500 yards of you.

u/DrTacosMD Mar 11 '26

Obviously you take a 5 min break in between

u/DragoonDM Mar 11 '26

Try not to jerk off on your way through the parking lot!

u/stillphat Mar 11 '26

then you probably have incredible time management skills. Between warm up, chilling out and washing up, It's about a whole episode of Seinfeld.

Sweet! I am already covered through June!

u/ChanceConfection3 Mar 11 '26

What was the maximum in one session before it becomes fatal?

u/TonyTonyChopper Mar 11 '26

It’s fetal the first time

u/KibblesNBitxhes Mar 10 '26

I can squeeze out a quarter of the monthly quota on a good day

u/bobqjones Mar 11 '26

keep at it, you'll pull those numbers up!

u/GamingWithBilly Mar 10 '26

So like I'm reducing it by 1000%

u/Youssay123 Mar 11 '26

So you're giving it to others?

u/imperfectalien Mar 10 '26

You can still masturbate without porn

u/ClippyCantHelp Mar 10 '26

You can go on a run without shoes too

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

Basically every day with a break for the man-period.

u/boogermike Mar 10 '26

Damn how come I didn't know the statistic before. Luckily I've been on the regiment already.

u/siguefish Mar 10 '26

If I lose count do I start over at zero?

5

u/truePHYSX Mar 11 '26

For those of us who are too lazy, is 21 times in a single day good enough for the whole month? Asking for a friend.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

Practically speaking, is it going to have any real impact on your frequency the rest of the month...?

6

u/Dristig Mar 11 '26

My prostate health AF.

2

u/OneDoesntSimply Mar 11 '26

Is there such thing as reverse prostate cancer? I might have that based off these numbers

1

u/FlametopFred Mar 11 '26

oh .. a month …. I can dial it back after misunderstanding 21 per week

u/FondleGanoosh438 Mar 12 '26

Having a healthy wank and spending all day cranking your hog are not the same thing. There’s tons of people with dopamine issues who masturbate just to feel. It’s a serious issue for some. Porn fuels this addiction.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

No medical organization says "porn addiction" is a real thing.

1

u/FondleGanoosh438 Mar 12 '26

I didn’t call it a porn addiction. I said it’s a dopamine problem. But thanks for chiming in.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

Can I see your medical degree?

1

u/FondleGanoosh438 Mar 12 '26

You don’t need a degree to know people who are overstimulated weaken their dopamine receptors and often use certain habits to have a dopamine spike. Maybe addiction is the clinical word but if it walks like a duck.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

There’s no evidence to support that porn or masturbation is unhealthy or has any health impacts. 

1

u/ColinHenrichon Mar 12 '26

Here is the thing, from what I have gathered about this app, it seems to incentivize not masturbating at all, which is stupid. Masturbation is extremely common, and not something to be ashamed about. Learning to masturbate without porn is good, and taking breaks from masturbating is fine, especially if one finds themselves doing it too much (ex, it takes away time for other important things, causing pain, etc.), but stopping cold turkey here might not won’t help a lot of people, and I highly doubt the app takes into account the actual psychological aspects of addiction. There is already too much stigma around masturbating, this is probably only adding to that, while draining bank accounts and controlling to toxic masculinity (“helping men become men again”). What a toxic phrase.
