NoFap can change our values and beliefs. Did it changed yours?

    I always thought that masturbating was Ok and normal, every animal in the nature did it etc., etc. Now, since I found NoFap I don't quite see it like that anymore. And I dropped a really strong Christian belief because of that, since I was born in a Christian family.

    I feel that NoFap might change my values, and even my religion. Did something similar happened to you? (same question as the title, more explained)

    I'm pretty new to it, but so far I speculate:

    -I'll stay more grounded in reality when not looking at porn/other women and concentrate on my own relationship
    -As a result of cutting off PM, and severely limiting social media, I will not look at the "perfection" on screen and compare myself to others or think about what I don't have
    -I'll have more time/energy to devote to other endeavors
    -I'll have less shame and more intensity, at least anecdotally, I feel this way after five days
    -I will no longer be a slave to the sexuality of women; I will be in control of my own reality and realize that they have nothing I need/want, and therefore nothing to fear (I sometimes don't like talking to strange women, even when I have to, because I always feel that there's this ambiguity of "Are you going to try to make a pass at me?" and them reacting with some kind of passive evasiveness. With the thought being nowhere in my own mind, the possibility not even being there, I feel more free to just witness what is sometimes rudeness from women and just shrug it off). It's not the women themselves that I feared, but rather how I had to hold in my displeasure of the smugness and sometimes downright rudeness as defense mechanisms, in some interactions. I think I will be who I want to be, and I will speak how I want to speak more without fear of having to care about how others react; I may even dialogue with people about what I'm witnessing and bring it to "open air."
