        Coffee is acidic. If you’re brushing right after coffee, you may be damaging the enamel of your teeth (acid + scrubbing is not a good combination). And it can’t grow back; once you’ve lost it, it’s gone forever.

      Considering the rest of their lifestyle, there’s very little chance that they were masturbating a sensible amount. A period of abstinence is a great way to normalize their masturbation habits.

    You don’t want to do a job interview while being backed up with five days of semen you’ll come in your pants if the interviewer says something nice.

    Cold shower? There are no bonus points for effort. Just take a shower if you can.

    Extra levels of suffering suck and don’t add anything to the experience. Basic self care is a good start. Trying to prove something to a straw man in the mind is silly.

      Probably got the idea from the manosphere. That being said, actually sticking to that particular habit is something to be proud of, and is completely harmless… when you are that low, anything you can be proud of is a win.

        the manosphere

        What about Seneca? Stoicism? What do they have to do with “the manosphere”?

        Cold showers feel great.

          4chan is a bit of a manosphere hotspot. It’s why some people’s alarm bells are ringing about the nofap-part, too. If we assume that the post isn’t actually real (as is common on 4chan), it might even be straight-up manosphere-derived nofap propaganda.

          You’re not wrong, but we’re talking about pond scum here. I doubt there was much Seneca involved
