>>8103787It's legit, I think. As someone who bought the bullshit they taught us in middle school about how "masturbation is harmless", and as someone with a fair amount of intelligence but who is also feckless, I think I can describe the harms fairly well.
I believe our bodies imbue a part of our genetic material into our ejaculate, and whenever we bust a nut we lose just a little bit of ourselves. Maybe it's our DNA or whatever, all that "junk DNA" that they tell us serves no purpose that they haven't entirely figured out yet.
I first made the connection between masturbation and bad health in my late teens. I thought it might have something to do with my creaky joints, receding hairline and late-onset of puberty. I looked a bit like a basedboy. I noticed that whenever I masturbated I was tired as shit the next day and didn't want to do anything.
So I took action. I cut way back on masturbation, ate healthier and began exercising, and within a couple years I looked much more manly and was more driven to succeed and I joined the military shortly afterward to jumpstart my life.
While I was in the Army I didn't entirely cut masturbation out of my life, but I still noticed the connection between masturbating and not having as much energy at the gym. I was in amazing shape though and I ate healthy and slept well.
I was in such good shape that I wanted to go special forces and went to the assessment and selection, and that's where I came face to face with the genetic damage I had done to my body.
Whenever I exerercised or ran my joints might be a little achy, but I could take a day off to get over it. At the special forces tryouts though you had to go hard every day, and by day 7 my hips, knees and ankles were so inflamed I had to tap out and go home. I was too young to have such terrible joints, but there I was.
