@hideki@histoire It may have "cured" his depression if fapping so much made him feel guilty for not having a relationship or something like that.
I find silly the obsession some people have with porn and fapping, but we probably didn't evolve to trick our sexual needs with porn and masturbation. It's probably healthier for our brain to have a relationship, and a proper family when we are past 30s.
@deadheat@hideki@histoire IDK, one of our closest animal relatives, the bonobo, is known for copious masturbation so there's actually an argument to be made that we did in fact evolve to masturbate a lot
@wiggles@deadheat@histoire i'm reading that the bonobo is the most horny AND most peaceful kind of ape ever, that's an interesting correlation don't ya think?
@hideki@wiggles@histoire Comparing us with apes from another evolutionary branch because people like their degenerate behavior is even more silly than no-fapping.
@wiggles@hideki@histoire I have read this argument unironically, especially in progressive media.
They like their sexual behavior, but what really fascinates them is the notion that bonobo society is a natural matriarchy, and try to suggest that feminism has an evolutionary basis. It's so stupid and pure junk science.
@deadheat@hideki@histoire God damnit why do the Wokies ruin everything? I'm not even safe while making my Bonobo masturbation jokes? What is the world coming to
@endlessmike@deadheat@hideki@histoire obviously the masturbation frequency of Bonobos must be closer to humans' than chimps' masturbation frequencies are to humans'
It gives my libido super powers but that's about it
And I dunno, if you do it that often it may. I dunno the psychology behind it tbh
