Is porn addiction real? Is "Death Grip" real? I see a lot of people talking about these like they're real thing but I'd always thought they were made up by Catholics and Mormons to shame people out of masturbating. And then "NoFap" formed out of the miasma of religious trauma and poor sexual health education and things just kind of mutated and spread. Any thoughts? Preferably with studies by atheists to back them up?

    So uh

    My bf has really calloused hands and it uh, caused some callouses on his uh, yeah. So he stopped and it uh, yeah, is better at doing things. He didn't even really do alone time that much he's just that calloused. Is fun when he grabs you though. So it is possible to lose sensitivity through overworking the skin but it comes back.

    But people really blow things out of proportion on this issue. Some of the NoFap people describe it as having super powers or feeling strong or whatever. That's all nonsense for sure, they're just placing their confidence in something silly. Its like saying you are an overconfident sex god when you have yellow shoe laces on. No, Jim, you're just a white guy that gets away with a lot of dumb shit because you're a white guy.
