Porn dudes11/25/2023 ![]() ![]() This hit the front page of a popular forum on Reddit. NoFap was founded in June 2011 by Pittsburgh web developer Alexander Rhodes after reading a thread on Reddit about a 2003 study, (which was retracted in 2021 due to overlap with another published article in Chinese), which claimed that men who refrain from masturbation for seven days experience a 145.7% spike in testosterone levels on the seventh day. The purported science behind the group's activities is said to come from anti-porn activist Gary Wilson, "an Oregon man with no scientific training or background, who has made a career peddling pseudoscience." Īs of September 16, 2022, the NoFap online community has more than 333,000 registered members. The group's views and efforts to combat pornography addiction have been criticized as simplistic, outdated, and incorrect by neuroscientists, psychologists, and other medical professionals. Other reasons for abstinence include religious and moral reasons, self-improvement, and physical beliefs that are not supported by medicine. While reasons for this abstinence vary by individual, the main motivation cited is attempting to overcome addiction to pornography, or other compulsive sexual behaviours. Its name comes from the slang term fap, referring to male masturbation. NoFap is a website and community forum that serves as a support group for those who wish to give up pornography and masturbation.
