This is about suggestive content (not necessarily porn).
How significant of a setback is it to "peek" or consume suggestive content during a period of abstinence from p/m/o? Specifically, I'm inquiring about anything from pics of bikini models (on Instagram, for example) to artistic nudes such...

I would like to discuss a topic that's been on my mind and gather some thoughts on this.

New member (as of today).

I hate it. It's been creating a drift between men and women. And it's so sad and frustrating that most men learn to objectify women since a very early age, we accept it and move on. It's so unfortunate how sex is present in everything and porn became so normalised. It's a really awkward...
Men are conditioned from a young age to view women as objects. This is dehumanization.
We do not dehumanize women because we look at pornography, seek out prostitutes, masturbate, or act out in any way; we do those things because we have already dehumanized women.
Our thinking got us here...
I just found this site, I wish I would have found it long ago.
I have successfully quit pornography and masturbation for over 5 years. It can be done, it can be sustained.

I had a wet dream that night, and in the dream I had sex without having PE.
I've suffered with PE for some years now, I last less than 1 minute, and I also always had PE in my wet dreams. But in my dream last night, I didn't have PE. I was able to control it.
I've been at NOFAP for 62 days...

I've been awake since 4am (or at least that was the time I looked at the clock). It's now passed 7am here.

Hello!
I registered just to write this message, because despite adopting the nofap philosophy, I do not usually use forums, social media, etc.. Mainly due to my religion-based morality, I have been trying not to practice masturbation. I've never been "addicted" to pornography. I saw it a few...

Introduction

5.using smartphone more than half an hour usually...

Once again today I PMO'd. It wasn't from an urge that just came about during the day. I planned it to be my last relapse before I give NoFap another shot. See the past two years I've had PMO-free streaks of four months and six months. Looking back it's unbelievable I've had that much success...
