hey fit, i have a theory i'd like to test out, but i need some help in coming up with the data to support/refute it.

post your:
-IQ
-how much nofap helped you out in terms of confidence, drive, motivation, and general mood, on a scale of 0-10, with 5 being no discernible change (so if it made you feel terrible, put 0, if it made you feel great, 10).
-how masculine you would consider your genetics to be (jawline, hairiness, shoulder width, etc), again 0-10 with 5 being 'average', 0 being 'i could pass for a female' and 10 being stan smith / archer

okay, faggot.

i see a pretty sharp divide in people's results with no-fap. seems to be split (hard to tell how evenly, but plenty of voices on both sides) with many saying it works, and many saying it does jack shit.

similarly, i've noticed the same type of divided response with people that have used testosterone. many report increased feelings of wellbeing, motivation, drive, etc. many, however do not.

supposedly no-fap works by causing endogenous testosterone production to increase, so these two things would, theoretically, be due to similar mechanisms of action (obviously with vastly different magnitudes).

i am trying to find some sort of explanation for this, my best guess is that some people respond positively to more testosterone (again, just on the 'mood' related effects), and some do not.
>>
>>36844577
But that assumes that nofap increases testosterone levels and we have no proof of that. That one study that showed a little increase on the 7th day and then drop does not count.

What do you do about that?

>140

>>
>>36844597
well there is no 'proof' of anything no-fap related, it's all just a bunch of conjecture and extrapolation from very limited data.

but from those who do say it positively affects them, all the typical androgen effects are there. 'i felt more aggressive', 'i was hornier', etc are what i keep reading from proponents of no-fap.
>>
>>36844577
to continue, since iq and masculinity/testosterone levels are inversely related, i was thinking maybe there is some sort of connection here.
>>
>>36844577

this type of study can only be done by blood tests, measuring test and comparing it to questions asked.

also, no-fap doesn't increase testosterone. It makes it peak, but that's only one study kind of done that doesn't go further. Does the peak cycle? does it keep coming back? or does it peak once and that's it? Testosterone also peaks after ejaculation for a time. It also jumps after exercise, eating certain foods, and for lots of other reasons.

And some people DO respond to testosterone more than others. Some people get HUGE mood swings. Some get nothing. People who don't have their mood altered might get a huge gain in muscle mass from test, while the moody people gain less.

There are so many factors and the only way you'll be able to figure them out is by actual science, not 4chan. go to college.

Did nofap for 4 months and It taught me a bit more confidence. However it's mostly placebo but it helped. I now fap every 1-2 to keep the horniness down.

IQ: I dont know, and there are barely any methods to measure your IQ, which is why you should never ever fucking trust people who start a IQ-fight / discussion.

NoFap: 10 fucking 10, it cured my autism.

genetics: Prolly a 5

Let me correct that for you:

>There are so many factors and the only way you'll be able to figure them out is by testing it yourself.

Fuck studies, fuck science. I just test out shit myself and see if it works.

This is how i cured my autism, its how i made hair gains and its how i made muscle gains.

Hairiness being having less hair on your entire body = being more masculine. as in accordance with the theory of evolution and the human sweat system.

I strongly believe this is learned behavior. We live in an intellectual age, where memorization and test-taking ability is associated with meekness, and thus boys that show promise are browbeaten and taught that it is not ok to act out in a masculine fashion, they also have the intelligence to recognize the feminized social structures around them, and due to a lack of masculine ideation and role models they are afraid to act.

Intellectual giants, spiritual and physical cripples.

i don't doubt that happens to some degree; i do think there is a feedback loop involved. but you really sound a lot like 'girls are just as strong as guys, it's just that they've been conditioned by society not to work out blah blah blah' sociology retards.
>>
>>36847236
Actually, I just believe that with the judeo-masonic, political revolution of 1789, weakness and meekness has become a virtue (contrast the regal, strong Jesus Christ of old, with the false cuckold image we are given today) where managerial, verbal types ("""intellectuals""") become the ideal.

Whites are smart enough to recognize these social structures, and that it is in the path of least resistance to do so. Just monitor the response when a spiritual aristocrat like Mr. Donald Trump steps out compared to how autistic verbally masturbating managerial types like a Marco Rubio are received.
