As far as the question itself- That the practice exists within religions has nothing at all to do with health.

Jesus said one grows closer to God through prayer and fasting. That has a lot to do with health, by my reckoning.

Frankly, depriving yourself of something makes you more cunning.

I broke my roller, thus depriving myself of cigarettes. On the second day in a winter storm, I carefully whittled a pipe from a tree limb. I would have not bothered otherwise.

Deprive yourself of pussy willingly, stupid as it sounds, to the effect of honestly working on your inner game, is pure genius. Taking a break for a few months or a year to make serious cash, lift serious weight, and try fistfighting at bars or conquering your fears (again, self-honesty is CRITICAL) is the smartest thing one can do. A woman around while you are fighting your OWN demons and conquering your inner bitch is liable to reault in felony arrests.

Think like Diogenes. I bet he pulled some serious Greek pussy in his day.

Women are master manipulators. Why not step back amd learn HOW to manipulate like a woman through observation? Why not step back and cultivate masculine virtues? Take a week long vacation alone?

Go on a three day bender in a foreign city with nothing but 200 euros and wake up in a gutter or alley each morning in a random town with your shoes nibbled by mice?

Go out one night with the goal of getting wasted and high with the intent of finding a cop and calling him a nigger to his face?

I have done completely fucking retarded things to conquer my fear and shame. Why don't you? I fear fuck all. If twenty guys ran at me with pipe irons they better have brought their own body bags.

I make no secret of my long stretches of celibacy that puzzles friends and family alike. Even while dispirited I kept talking to people and watching gamesmen at their craft (listening to gamesmen too) only greatly increased my personal brand of ruthlessness and cunning.

Much like the rags to riches parable, oftentimes the wealthiest of men came from humble origins. They know themselves.

My thought: moderation is best.

RE: Abstinence from Sexual Intercourse
From a physiological perspective, there have been tons of studies done which show without any doubt that regular sex is highly beneficial to one's health and longevity. I'm guessing too that sex with someone that you like and enjoy confers the highest benefits as opposed to 5am one night stands which involve a whole bunch of other unhealthy actions which would negate any benefit you would get from the sex.

Unfortunately, most of the frustration comes from the pursuit of sex from flaky, unreliable females or from women who you've been fucking for a while and are starting to demand more from you. The pursuit is what gets most guys distracted and discombobulated and I think this is the reasoning behind abstinence advocated by pretty much all religions. Periodic abstinence is good from a disciplinary and focus perspective. Ultimately, I agree with the guys here who have said that moderation and balance is key, just like it is in all other aspects in life.

But there is no doubt about the health benefits from regular sex.

Ha. His thread on window screens was one of my favorite forum moments. Also liked his posts in the wagon thread where he talked about his love for the taste of bourbon.

Hades, your advice is absolutely ridiculous and would get most guys thrown in jail, but I'd love nothing more than buying you a beer and hearing some of your stories.

Hell man, me too! I would bring a case of Wisconsin's finest!
HMU via PM. I'm not that far away and gas is cheap as hell. I have school in a month or so ... ?

Yeah we could totally talk about all the crazy ass shit I've done. Holy hell, so many drugs and madness and mayhem.

I like to listen too, I figure you have great stories. We could totally wingman and slay the night!

Cheers man, Hades.

RE: Abstinence from Sexual Intercourse
If it has purpose, in my opinion, TEMPORARILY "going MGTOW/Monk", has value.


As many probably know, I have started several low capital business ventures
(and most of them are doing fine). That takes a lot of my valuable time, effort and money.


When I add the gym and meditation to the mix I simply do not have time for girls. I will eventually, but not right now.


In short, I would simply would not be a good boyfriend (or fuck buddy - I had to ditch mine, sadly) because I can't invest any time/money into any relationship.


When financials, and by body, get much better (and I am confident that they will), then I will get back into the SMV market. Until then...I am out.


I am by no means a MGTOW, Game denialist or whatever. I just believe that any man needs to do "monk mode" at least once in a lifetime, when he is trying to achieve something worth pursuing. You are entering a cocoon, and when you eventually leave it, you will be an unstoppable force of Nature. You will be doing one step back, and, after some time, five steps forward.

I found this site recently:

http://celibrate.org/index.php

It doesn't look like it has been updated in a while, though.

If only you knew how bad things really are.

Fuck that site. Can't do it. You need some sexual outlets where you can get your rocks off. Why would a red blooded male purposefully be celibate other than MAYBE religious reasons?

Sex keeps you young and your body functioning right.

Maine and Canadian lobsters are the same animal. Prove me wrong.

RE: Abstinence from Sexual Intercourse
Also take into consideration is the expression of sexuality healthy or unhealthy. Is it quickies late at night after a alcohol binge at a night club. Or is it two healthy individuals practising Kama Sutra techniques and having multiple orgasms. The quality of the sexual experiences should definitely impacts an individuals overall well being. The better the sex the better impact it has on everything else.

RE: Abstinence from Sexual Intercourse
In my "Blue Pill" days I could have gone for months, sometimes years without sex.
I would just live my life, as I had stuff to do, which were (to me) more interesting.
No, I'm not talking about video games or porn. It was not ubiquitous in my early twenties.

My thought exactly.
Males need sex. If we get "too much" we are spent (heh!). Not enough and revolutions start.

As a Jew - The Jewish religion preaches to have sex, during marriage. It is also the duty of the husband, and of the wife.
As I understand - almost all religions practice having sex as part of marriage.
The abstinence is reserved for specific class (monks). In Judaism it is frowned upon.

Today, with the help of game, I get it regularly. amazing how when I was younger I had less sex than at my age now.
