'''Fapstinence''' or '''NoFap''' is a [[PUA|dating strategy]] used by [[Feminization|"low-T"]] and [[love shyness|love-shy men]] on the [[inceldom spectrum]] that consists of avoiding [[masturbation]] and pornography consumption. Fapstinents make essentially pseudo-scientific arguments that abstaining from masturbation will increase their [[testosterone|T levels]] and increase their [[confidence]] and, consequently, their ability to do cold approach or warm approach women. | '''Fapstinence''' or '''NoFap''' is a [[PUA|dating strategy]] used by [[Feminization|"low-T"]] (short for low-[[testosterone]]) and [[love shyness|love-shy men]] on the [[inceldom spectrum]] that consists of avoiding [[masturbation]] and pornography consumption.

Many of them also believe that women are directly attracted by the greater "animal magnetism" that high-T men apparently exude, essentially making materialist, secular, and empirical arguments for celibacy of different degrees, based on very preliminary research that they misinterpret to support their beliefs. This secular approach may be one reason why no-fap has taken off where traditional [[religion|religious]] admonitions against "sins of the flesh" have failed. | Many of them also believe that women are directly attracted by the greater "animal magnetism" that high-T men apparently exude, essentially making materialist, secular, and empirical arguments for celibacy of different degrees, based on very preliminary research that they misinterpret to support their beliefs.

Nofappers are a subset of the [[manosphere]] entirely focused on fapstinence. These nofappers often congregate on various platforms titled NoFap. They believe that semen-retention will help with [[confidence]] levels, assertiveness, [[Reproductive success|success]] with [[dating]], and other behaviors associated with being high-T. | Nofappers are a subset of the [[manosphere]] entirely focused on fapstinence.

Another subgroup of the fapstinence effort, is the group No Nut November. The main goal of this group is to avoid ejaculating for an entire month, typically the month of November. This month was largely randomly chosen, so there is no fixed commemoration. However, it has largely the same end goal as the other major fapstinence group, NoFap, although each adherent has slight differences in its manifestations. As a counterpoint, Destroy Dick December is by some embraced to make good for the previous month of abstinence.<ref>https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/destroy-dick-december-masturbation-challenge-meme/</ref> | Another subgroup of the fapstinence effort, is the group No Nut November.
