Let's not start the cult of /r/nofap here. And no, you are not suddenly more charismatic and confident. You are just not reeking of cum all the time, something achievable with regular showers as well.

No fap is retarded, but watching less porn isn't. You can do pretty much anything you can imagine to excess.

The no fap community is definitely overexxagarating the pros of not masturbating, but in it's core they are supporting a healthy cause. Never been an r/nofap guys but they definitely helped me a bit to stop my porn addiction.

You can masturbate without porn, also helps with imagination.

Can't argue with that.

Anything that practices self-control and self-discipline is usually a good thing.

Not really, the whole nofap community was a kind of incel cult

All things in moderation, including my 360 AI enhanced goon cave with haptic feedback USB fleshlight.

Nofap and celibacy cults are pretty toxic, but there is some virtue in self restraint.

I can only speak for myself, but my mood tends to be better after a week or two without orgasm.
