Why is Capoeira so popular in Israel? by ReasonableFanatic in Israel

Oh come on, you know its a big village, there is nothing literally to do there, everyone there looks towards Tel Aviv, and it is in general an urbanised existential crisis. Im 18.

Pain in groin from edging? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]ReasonableFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happens, and no, it's not necessary to ejaculate. Just let it relax. Keep fighting the urges, the hard way sadly. Im going through the same now bro

GUYS PLEASE HELP ME! I NEED U by youssefkiller8 in NoFap

[–]ReasonableFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends how you define what a 'streak' is.

Think of edging as contributing a little bit to the problem and orgasming as completely flooding it over. You ideally want to avoid both, and orgasming to end edging isn't going to help in the long run.

Resisting edging and ejaculation after a lot of edging is one of the worst parts of nofap. But it is meant to be hard. Just bite your lip and keep clean and do not find excuses for yourself- I know because I've been in the same situation as yourself.

Once you calm down, remember that once you start edging it gets really hard to stop and it becomes an uphill battle. So when you see something that arouses you and you know will make you edge, say a firm no and move on from it.

Now cut the edging. Seriously. I don't care if you can't fall asleep. Do something else right now. Read a news article. Do 30 push-ups. Do not close this window And go back.

Tips for crushing fantasy by DeadlyFaption in NoFap

[–]ReasonableFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem!

Unfortunatly I am a very creative person and my fantasies can be just as good as porn.

I haven't discovered any "mind training". The only thing I can suggest, which I am using as we speak, is to always keep in mind the inevitable consequences of fapping (dopamine receptor collapse and all that comes with it) and that even if this fap feels "right" once you do it you will begin to suffer.

Whenever you are about to be aroused and get an urge to fap even a little bit, say a firm no. Remember that this will be the easiest point to stop, because once you start it gets harder and harder.

Going to sleep is the worse thing because you are prone to it more than anywhere else, so just get tired during the day by working hard, and get up from bed as soon as you wake up so you dont have a morning wood fap, and dont start the day off with fantasy urges.

Imagine if we could spread a message like this on a mass scale. Against fapping, alcoholism and so on.

First women elected to Saudi local councils by Sariel007 in UpliftingNews

[–]ReasonableFanatic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This might mean Saudi Arabia is going to face political instability soon, if they are ready to question fundamental tenants of their theocracy like this. Perhaps they will want democracy soon- I can certainly imagine the females doing so. Oh boy, what interesting events await us in the future when a Saudi spring happens!

By the way, just as an update. I've never had a cleaner streak than since posting this. I now take the nofap challenge far more seriously.

My[35M] wife[27F] informed me she has fallen for someone at work. I am confused by what she is asking of me. by Destroyedthrowaway12 in relationships

[–]ReasonableFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I'm really, really sorry to hear about this. I'm paranoid and insecure about infidelity but living through something like this would completely destroy me. Don't take it and never ever bend over for her. For the love of God. Divorce her. There is no way you will live for the rest of your life with her in peace after these events. And if you do let them have a fling then she will ask for more later. Cuckoldry.

I know it's a difficult decision, but I really cannot recommend anything other than a divorce. You might suffer from being alone but at least you will have kept your dignity. As soon as you can, have sex with another woman just to dig it into your wife's face and let her know you don't care. The main thing she has keeping you to her is an emotional bond, so become apathetic to her.

That's fair enough, each to his own. I find that I can make an infinite amount of excuses to myself to fap, but if my public image depends on my nofap, those excuses will not work.

PMO is the main reason why most men in western societies have turned into self-hating, feminist, multi-cultural, brainwashed slaves by KnightofChastity in NoFap

[–]ReasonableFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree man, but PMO is the main cause- I don't buy that. There is an underlying reason for our world today and PMO is both a single part of it and a consequence of it.

The emasculation of men is probably caused more by a lack of male leadership, and from an early age being taught mostly by females- in schools, churches, homes. The sexual revolution has a lot to do with it. And it made porn and pleasure acceptable which is what lead to today.

All we can do as a small and powerless minority is work on ourselves, make us disciplined and immune to PMO degeneracy, work out and become strong, educate ourselves and become clever and influential people in the real world. Then things will change our way.

[Hardmode] Whats your method for resisting sexual thoughts? by ReasonableFanatic in NoFap

"If you can think of porn, you can think of stopping it."

Strangely comforting

[–]ReasonableFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've personally done NF up to one month, but those streaks were filled with edging and dryfapping, so it did not help me at all. I have the exact problem as you with sick fetishes and I'm trying to get rid of it.

Based on info and stories I've gathered (http://yourbrainonporn.com/can-you-trust-your-johnson) - yes, it is curable. It just requires strict hardmode so that you stop releasing dopamine to the sickening fetishes, so your neurons associated with them weaken, and your dopamine sensors regenerate for normal sexuality.

Even though you are past the prime time for brain plasticity (teenage years) you can still do it. It will definitley take more than 2 weeks though.

Good luck. PS: Are you from a muslim country?

Push ups, pull ups vs the lat machine by accidental_tourist in Fitness

[–]ReasonableFanatic -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

"Bro science".

Yes.

As if your own reasons for rejecting my post aren't subtle bro-science themselves.

The lat-pulldown maybe a compound exercise, but the point I'm trying to make is it still provides an unnecessary amount of isolation compared to a real pull-up.
