I've talked a long about Mark Manson lately on this forum. He has the best books i've ever read and they lifestyle/relationships oriented. I read Models: Attract Women Through Honesty before starting NoFap. It was 2-3 years ago. A few days ago I got its Audiobook and started it over again! Guess what.... Mark Manson is clearly against PMO!! I couldn't remember it because it was before I knew anything about NoFap and I didn't pay attention. I am so happy right now. Note: the book is worth reading. Check out the part in his book about porn.
Love Mark Manson myself. I read his book " The Subtle Art Of Not Giving a F$%^" and got his books Models as well. His blogs are awesome too, I do not agree with him 100% of the time, but I enjoy reading them nevertheless. I read what you have published here and agree 90% what Manson said about porn and masturbation. However, masturbating on real women can lead you back to porn according to my experience. I believe it depends how long one has abstained from porn might be able to pull this off. Different strokes for different folks, no pun intended.
Well yeah but dont forget that he published this book back in 2011 when NoFap wasn't even a thing! I bet that today he knows a lot more abou this.
dude thats an awesome post! More respect and admiration towards Mark Mason!!! I'm curious, have you tried his masturbation diet??? does it work?
I did NoFap hard mode for 100+ days. Then had sex. Then went another 100 days hard mode. Since then I masturbate to imagination only every week or other week (just by pure coincidence). I must say that after you complete your reboot it works. It takes off some pressure but not fuck you up like PMO. I usually ejac within 1-2 minutes whereas before NoFap I would masturbate 30-60 minutes with my iron grip before I could cum! Its all about moderation. Do a full reboot first. Then do a scheduled MO session imo.
hmmmm that sounds right man. I guess following that diet right away would not be feasible. I tend to overestimate myself all the time.
