#masturbation

I am fucking fed up of these self-help people preaching to either do one of the following:

If you are addicted to porn, erotic fiction, sexting as well as the masturbation attached to them, your addiction is the problem and not the fact you're masturbating in itself.

I have personally tried to avoid masturbating in the past and hit the lowest point in my life. I had almost no sex drive, I felt like nothing had a point, not even sex and I was empty as fuck.

When I either have sex (won't specify when I have done or how often, it is irrelevant, I am focusing on ejaculation here) and masturbated, I have personally experienced a surge in masculinity and feeling more focused and energetic in daily life. When I masturbate/fuck either super too often or super too little, I experience sex consuming my mind and a feeling of being emasculated, less energetic, less 'oomph' and 'fire' to me, I would not even say it is feminine, it is just emasculating towards and emptiness.

I really wish people did solid scientific research before thinking your sperm doesn't die anyway and even force-releases by wet dreams if you refuse to masturbate (unless you're depressed with barely any libido and sperm production).

As for females and the no-fap movement, I'm not sure how it works and feels for them as I was born assigned and cisgender male.
