Well, I commonly hear articles being thrown at me from studies about why porn is bad for you. Most of them, I prefer not to read because I can so easily see the propaganda giants pushing their own message behind it, "Date women, make them happy, buy them stuff, get married, you'll be happier." It's a false fairy-tale that really does not reward the single man in most cases.
Where are the studies that compare brain health of a man having sex with a woman, compared to a man who watches porn instead? Are there not women who are so addicted to sex, that they insist on having it with their man every day, multiple times a day? How is this safer than porn? Are the stress levels on the brain of a man being pulled around by their balls every day going to be more dangerous than a happy, rich man who gets to enjoy spending his time doing whatever he wants?
Look, I remember how Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory ended. The little boy living in that crappy town ended up being the envy of the world, because he could live isolated as the world's most self-indulgent introvert.
Anyways, I'm not being fully serious. Thanks for the article. I always like reading your spin on social dynamics.
From experience I can tell you that women are more attractive, but you also get more assertive, establishing boundaries and calling shit out feels natural.
You don't suddenly get needy when you are not jacking it. At least I don't.
I like socializing and having sex of course, and I push for that, but if some girl or dude treats me like shit or I don't like them I am gone, no matter how big and blue my balls are.
The biggest "introverts" in the world were calibate - they were not shy personalities, they were very social.
Shakespeare, Tesla & Newton for example.
You don't need to masturbate to focus on something.
