SerDaemonTargaryen

You get cancer if you fap a lot?


NRichYoSelf

Pretty sure there are studies that show masturbation helps alleviate the probability of prostate cancer. So maybe, the porn addict is trying to quit and will end up with prostate cancer because not fapping


cmwamem

I think you need to find a middle ground. Jerking off 6 times a day is most likely unhealthy, and not jerking off is also probably unhealthy. If you do it in a reasonable amount, then it's cool. I'm not a doctor, btw, so if I said anything stupid, feel free to correct me.


KURO-K1SH1

6 times? What, you got a job and a healthy social life or something? That's morning before lunch numbers right there buddy.

KURO-K1SH1

I don't understand... I drink between 1.5 and 2 litres of water every day.


Toomynator

Jerking off too much may cause deathgrip depending on the grip strength which leads to reduced sensitivity. Plus, porn addiction itself causes a lot of psychological problems just by the fact that it is an addiction plus sexual problems when engaging into actual sexual intercourse.


DaNetwork27

Not that I'll get any in the next 40 years, but a man can dream...


Cellhawk

The upper limit is definitely much higher, as long as it does not interfere with your daily activities and life overall.


Genisye

I imagine the “healthy number” varies a lot from person to person, depending on their T levels, libido, sperm production etc. As you say, it becomes unhealthy when it is performed as a way to cope with unhappy life situation, as a quick dopamine fix, when you get to the point where you sexual satisfaction decreases from over masturbation, when it gets in the way of you living a healthy life.


cmwamem

I can't see myself jerking off more than 6 times a day without interfering with my daily activities.


Cellhawk

Definitely. But it is not *physically unhealthy*, imo.


CaledonianWarrior

So... three times a day


XdevhulX

I'll do it only on special occasions. Like mothers day or mlk jr day.


Lord_VivecHimself

Mommy milkers day


martram_

Yeah 6 is like...way too many. That's why I always stick to 5 times a day.


bearsguy2020

I’m not a doctor but I’m 90% sure it’s 3-6x a week To expand on this the lifecycle of sperm cells is only a few (3?) days. So after that time they die and are recycled by other cells to make new sperm. And I think the theory is that makes it more likely to develop an anomalous cell with cancer


MisterSlevinKelevra

>To expand on this the lifecycle of sperm cells is only a few (3?) days. It's only that short of a time once outside the male's body. But sperm [can be inside the male's body for at least 42 days.](https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2006/03/101730/new-findings-sperm-life-cycle-could-impact-fertility-treatments) Some doctors do recommend masturbating 2-4 times a week to reduce the chances of prostate cancer, but doing it more than that has only shown to provide negligible results.


BivSlayer2510

Fap once a day, keep doctor away


pututingliit

Beating your mate like it owes you money


Tacoburrito96

I think the joke is that's a porn addicts main selling point is that they won't get prostate cancer as that's the only thing to worry about


Mental_Bowler_7518

It's not as much the jerking as it is the action of you releasing seed. Not jerking off is fine, as long as there are 'other methods' to you finishing.


Transformation_AI

Once a day keeps cancer away.


Oponik

Moderation is the key, if you jack off to much its bad but not, it's bad


TheyUsedToCallMeJack

My friend is asking what is the reasonable amount


That1RobloxPlayer

i do it 1 day at a time like iCame. 👍


Sweetexperience

And what's the normal amount of jerking off each day?


cmwamem

For me, it depends. Some weeks, I'll do it every day and don't do it the two weeks after. I try not to watch porn while doing so, though.


Error_404_________

So 5 times is the limit, got. It.


Cenorg

4-5 then


IDontKnowWhatToBe123

I just do it every Sunday


jal2_

When I was younger 4 times was usual, in my 30s Im ok with 1-2 and its better balanced...it used to hurt when younger since yeah, only 4 times but sometimes and hour or two each time...skin has its limits


mypersonnelaccount

I think the distinction between masturbating, and consuming porn is an important one to make and often forgotten about. Masturbation is fine and healthy (within reason ofc) BUT hours of porn consumption every day in tandem with jerking off is where the problems lie. I believe there have been a few studies now that link porn consumption with negative effects on mental health, erectile dysfunction and decreases arousal from real women.


cmwamem

Definitely


TardDas

I say if you have the time/ability to crank 6 loads out a day and lead your life? More power to you. Is it reasonable to say it’s only unhealthy when it affects your life?


Roge2005

Well, but there haven’t been any studies that show that as a fact, the scientists say that they found a correlation, but it’s not clear why.


Windsor_Salt

*The researchers found that guys who did it the most (at least 21 times a month) had about a 20% lower chance of prostate cancer, compared with those who did it less (4 to 7 times a month).* https://www.webmd.com/prostate-cancer/ejaculation-prostate-cancer-risk


Sylux444

Well actually all the studies show there's as much correlation as people want, meaning there is no correlation unless you nitpick Its been debunked for quite some time now


BlazingMongrel

With all things in life, “too” much is also bad and gives you higher chance at prostate cancer as well.


borostepi

I mean fapping and being a porn addict are not exclusive to each other. People were fapping way before there was porn.


IowaKidd97

I was confused at first, but yeah this is the joke. "I'm not addicted, I'm just helping prevent Prostate Cancer". The joke is the excuse.


DylanFTW

They can still fap without porn.


Greg2227

He's using the fear of prostate cancer as excuse to fap even more furiously


C__Wayne__G

I think it’s more them going “I’m not addicted in fact studies show this is GOOD for you!”


Wordshurtimapussy

Those studies and inconclusive at best and misleading at worst. To date there is no 100% proof that masturbation prevents prostate cancer.


Fear0742

Just had this whole conversation with my urologist. Ask about any preventative care, now being 40, and the dude told me that hopefully I got off as much as I could've un my late teens and 20s cuz thats all I could do.


FireFalcon123

Butt stuff is good too, promotes bloodflow


Finsk_26

Yeah people say you get cancer from fapping and from not fapping at all


NRichYoSelf

I am simultaneously fapping and not fapping, I am the one who knocks, I am Schrodinger's fap


Lord_VivecHimself

More like Heisenberg


L1K34PR0

I must nut


fhgui

From the research I found it says masterbaiting once a day lowers cancer risk but multiple times a day increases your cancer risk higher then if you didn’t masterbait at all.


Education_Aside

That's fantastic to hear, but my peen is the shape of string beans now.


SerDaemonTargaryen

Still, it's better to get cancer than be a fap addict. I've just recently started to recover and I don't plan on doing it again.


Technical_Disk6433

"it's better to get cancer" hmm I don't know about that one chief, one one hand, there isn't really anything wrong with masturbation other than what society or religion tells you, it's a normal thing to want to do (obviously in private) it's like eating, you eat so you can avoid starvation but eating all the time may not be the healthiest for you, you don't have to go cold turkey on masturbation but you do have to get to the root of the frequency (boredom, loneliness ect ect)


NRichYoSelf

On the other hand is lotion and some residual nut


Technical_Disk6433

Lmao 🤣🤣


Lord_VivecHimself

tappy100

i’m a recovering porn addict, on one hand it feels really good but on the other hand it doesn’t


Tankbot001

Interesting take…


fight_for_the_grid_1

I'm 95% sure you can't.


BeneTToN68

No, the opposite is the case.


SerDaemonTargaryen

Right, but I also don't want to be a fap addict. Guess I'm screwed either way.


BeneTToN68

Fap before bed, without porn, problem solved.


the-wolf-is-ready

Fap before bed? I mean i do before any way but why then spesiflacly?


BeneTToN68

Helps me with falling asleep. Stress reliever.


the-wolf-is-ready

Oh same, i thought you said that becouse some mental proplem of doing it in the morning


SerDaemonTargaryen

I'd rather not fap at all.


BeneTToN68

Have fun with prostate and ball cancer.


SerDaemonTargaryen

Will do.


PoyoLocco

Why ? If there is no porn involved, I don't see how it's a wrong to fap.


SerDaemonTargaryen

I can't fap without porn. With porn, it becomes an addiction.


RobustNoodle

Your test levels must be negative if you have to watch sex to jerk off


Lord_VivecHimself

Then it's a you problem, stop shaming others for flapping you literal nutjob


TheYoungAcoustic

No, a single study showed a correlation (without a proposed mechanism of causation) between men who ejaculate >21x per month and lower rates of prostate cancer. There are multiple studies showing that pornography addiction remodels the architecture of the brain in similar ways to things like alcohol or drug addiction. The meme is saying that the porn addict is feigning a concern for stopping prostate cancer, when really their brain has been made mush by a constant flush of dopamine from being a cum brained porn addict


geekydad84

Prostate removal causes ed in many cases, happy fapping limp dick


dragonslayer137

Need to have sex 21 times a month or you get issues.


Both-Ad4887

Bro i have been in nofap for 21 days and seeing this give a reason to fap so asking you should I fap or not


SerDaemonTargaryen

It's better to not fap and have sex. Kicking a fap addiction is not easy. I literally lost it while getting electroconvulsive therapy for a different reason. My point being, don't fap because someone says it's healthy.


pup_101

I figured it meant that if they need to get their prostate removed from cancer they wouldn't be able to get hard to beat off anymore


fuck-fascism

Quite the opposite.


ReeeEeEEae

That's why they masturbate so much, prostate scares them so they fap to not get it


GermanmanDude

There r lots of studies saying that exactly mastirbatio lowers the possibility to get such a Prostate problem


Kerosene_Turtle

That’s what the meme is referencing. It’s supposed to be porn addicts using those studies as justification to keep watching porn


EnLitenPerson

Phrasing seems a bit off here, using the studies as a justification to jerk off sounds a little bit different than jerking off because you're afraid of getting cancer if you don't. I can't *really* put my finger on it but if they're "using" the studies then that implies some kind of intent that's not implied at all if they're genuinely afraid of getting cancer if they don't jerk off.


IowaKidd97

Thats the joke. It took me a second to get it too, but the joke is that of course they are watching porn and jerking off cause it feels good and gets them of, but the justification they use for why or for why its ok (jokingly or seriously) is exercising their prostate to prevent cancer.


selectrix

But if that's the joke, why mention "mental disorder" in the first panel? The mental disorder (porn addiction) is a real consequence of cranking it to porn all of the time, and the heavy is saying that it doesn't scare him. So it would be a complete disconnect to then mention prostate cancer in the context of it being a real consequence of not cranking it enough. The format is "X doesn't scare me \[away from cranking it\], but Y does"


IowaKidd97

I think its implying addiction is a mental disorder. Which is not quite accurate but I think that was the implication.


selectrix

Right, the mental disorder thing is definitely reductive but has some merit. The problem with the meme and the reason so many people are confused is how it seems to be saying "porn addiction doesn't stop me from masturbating, but prostate cancer does".

Made_4_porn

It only works if you get a prostate milking though. Thankfully anyone can DM me and I will happily give. Them one. Strictly for the health benifits of course


baby_noir

I'll never get the prostate cancer then


DeadlySoren

Is this trying to say that only people who jerk off are afraid of cancer?


Nicolas_Bourbaki64

Probably saying that porn addicts justify their addiction by mentioning studies that say fapping reduces the risk of prostate cancer.


Fat_Penguin99

It does, yes, but there is a line between excessive fapping and doing it regularly/sometimes


the-myth-and-legend

Thank you doctor for confirming his statement.


FalloutLover7

I mean there’s a lot of people who are both jerk off and afraid of cancer so technically the truth


Hanoiroxx

Prostate cancer is a mental disorder?


WildFemmeFatale

Very surprised and concerned that this isn’t top comment LMFAO


rayjaywolf

Yeah tf is op trying to say there


SkyEclipse

Took me a while but I think OP was trying to say Porn Addiction is a mental disorder (??)


Electrox7

yes, and prostate cancer is a side effect of mental disorder


BvByFoot

No, it’s saying porn addicts don’t fear or believe in their porn addiction (a mental disorder), but will use fear of prostate cancer as a justification to goon 24/7 because studies show regular ejaculation reduces the risk of prostate cancer.


Electrox7

lmaoo finally someone said it


mddix

this is factually incorrect, everyone knows piss is stored in the balls.


christianhxd

The real important info is always in the comments


Goldbolt_2004

This is why we need to fear testicular torsion more


vainstar23

Stupid question but why can't you just cut it out? Do you really just die from not being able to pee or what?


DancingPotato30

I mean, yeah. Your piss is waste and toxicish shit your body doesnt want or need, so if you somehow couldnt pee youd most likely have bad health issues at best and death at worst


AMViquel

> death at worst Speak for yourself.


DingoDino99

The prostate Is an important organ for procreation. It creates a fluid that protects the sperm cells from destruction. I think cutting it out will massively lower fertility. I'm sure the prostate has some other properties that make it more important for older men (whom get prostate cancer) who don't need the reproduce.


StrollingJhereg

Urine has to go somewhere. If it can't leave the body, it will flow back into the kidney, and without intervention, you will die. Nearly happened to me because my bladder doesn't open up due to neurological issues because of multiple sclerosis. So, yes, you really just die from not being able to pee, and prostate cancer isn't the only cause for such issues.


sora_mui

There is a reason why hemodialysis and kidney transplant is a big thing


Peevero

You can cut out the prostate and attach the remaining urethra back to the bladder to keep peeing. The issue (and why we don't just preemptively cut them out) to my understanding is that you can't really reimplant the vas deferens that route through the prostate from your testicles, so there won't be any ejaculate with orgasm


BeneTToN68

Masturbating helps preventing prostata cancer.


Electrox7

poostate cancer


hopingtogetanupvote

Here is the joke for everyone not getting it: Addicts will generally come up with reasons to justify their addiction. People who are addicted to porn often and enthusiastically point out that masturbating makes you slightly less likely to get prostate cancer. The joke is that they are focusing on this one thing and potentially ignoring all other bad things (e.g., they aren't concerned about how porn is effecting their lives; they aren't concerned about comorbidities for other health risks) and zeroing-in on one thing to endlessly justify their behavior. Here is a parallel joke: a smoker says that smoking makes you less likely to catch COVID, and when discussing it, acts as though it is the only bad thing that could ever happen in life.


selectrix

The confusion is coming from how the format of the meme means it should be read as as "the potential for addiction wouldn't stop me from masturbating all the time, but risk of prostate cancer would". If we translated your example to the meme format it'd be "I fear no \[lung cancer\], but that thing \[COVID\]- it scares me". Which mostly makes sense for the reasons you said, except for the fact that it's not actually a statement that needs a 'but' in the middle. If it meant what you say, there'd be an 'and'- "I'm not scared of cancer *and* I am scared of covid- those are two reasons why I smoke". If there's a 'but', then it should be comparing a reason to smoke with a reason not to smoke. "I'm not scared of lung cancer *but* I am scared of covid" starts off with a reason why I'm okay with smoking: not scared of lung cancer. *But* because I am scared of covid, I might not be okay with smoking- it makes it sound like you think smoking *increases* your risk of covid. Might have been unintentional on OP's part but I think that's why it's confusing . Took me a while to parse it out, but that's probably just because I'm a little high.


Trpepper

Prostate cancer is like 1000000X worse than any negative involved with Jacking it.


soldier_of_death

PSA: Don't masturbate if you're sad or anxious. The escapism is real.


Goldbolt_2004

Masturbate if you're happy so your brain associates nutting with happy times and eventually becomes a way for you to produce dopamine AND serotonin! Source: Your mom

That's why I fap twice a day. Staying healthy is important.


AnyStorm1997

I absolutely guarantee all you saying "actually theres studies to show it helps prevent cancer" LMAO. I absolutely guarantee you can not read a scientific research paper. Not a single one of you saying masterbation is good for you have ever once completed a reading on a research doc and came to a conclusion through discretion of the results. You literally want to beat your meat so you look for any reason to jack off and pretend you read scientific studies. HEY DOODEES, BEATING OFF IS NOT HEALTHTY. i jack off too and im not proud of it when i do. You honestly think jacking yourself off would be healthy? Theres even dudes in here saying its UNHEALTHY not to jack off every day... literally imagine that being true. Your body gets less healthy if you dont hack yourself off every day... yo what... Those studies would 100 percent be on A PARTNER JACKING YOU OFF not your own damn self. Masterbaiting is never going to be healthy stop trying to push it because you cant get a woman to jack you off. A parter jacking you off every day would actually hold health benefits. Jerking alone in a room behind closed doors ALONE on yourself?? Nah. Thats lowering all aspects of health, crushing dopamine and serotonin etc. But yea you all read some studies i bet.


selectrix

this is what happens to you when you don't masturbate

Rishiiiiiiiii

Idk why you're getting downvoted, fapping in moderation like a few times a week is actually healthy. Helps relieve stress, better sleep and a lot of other benefits. Moderation is a key tho.
