> Scientists regularly comment on the misleading use of their research by NoFap to monetize (Mascherek et al. Citation2021) and on NoFap’s non-evidence-based practice (Shahinyan et al. Citation2023). NoFap has responded with dozens of legal intimidation letters or lawsuits to scientists, media, and scientific organizations (e.g., Plummer Citation2020) and attempted to prohibit scientists from collecting data concerning NoFap (Gałuszka Citation2020; Prause and Binnie Citation2023).
The feeling is mutual, apparently. Weird how this movement demonizing masturbation is seen as "demonized" by a study documenting violent outcomes from the movement. Is the tradition of shaming men's sexual desires so sacred that we should overlook its violent extremes?
By appearances, they've done considerable research to back up their claims. Do you have evidence that they're being dishonest, or are you just smearing them?
- akomtu 3y agoThis is a political hit piece masquerading as research. If I cared enough, I'd start with finding out who funded that "research".
