NoFap
NoFap adalah situs web dan forum komunitas yang berfungsi sebagai kelompok pendukung bagi mereka yang ingin berhenti dari pornografi dan masturbasi.[2][3][4] Namanya berasal dari istilah prokem fap, merujuk pada masturbasi pria. Alasan untuk menghindari ini berbeda-beda pada setiap individu, dan termasuk alasan agama dan moral, perbaikan diri, dan keyakinan fisik yang tidak didukung oleh obat-obatan.[5] Pandangan dan upaya kelompok tersebut untuk memerangi kecanduan pornografi telah dikritik sebagai hal yang sederhana, ketinggalan zaman, dan tidak benar oleh ahli saraf, psikolog, dan profesional medis lainnya.[6] 'Sains' yang dikutip di NoFap dikatakan berasal dari aktivis anti-pornografi Gary Wilson, "seorang pria Oregon tanpa pelatihan atau latar belakang ilmiah, yang telah membuat karier menjajakan pseudosains."[7]

So why are men doing it, and what happens when they do? "Why" can be answered two ways: some see a medical problem in chronic masturbation, others a spiritual one.

Despite the evangelical tone, NoFap is fundamentally different from traditional campaigns that view masturbation as an assault on religious values. Instead, it is developing as a secular movement popular among young men, many of whom identify as liberal and atheist. The majority of NoFap members are men in their teens and early 20s, though there are women, too, says Alexander Rhodes, the 23-year-old web developer from Pittsburgh who founded the movement two years ago. He estimates about 60 per cent are atheists; the site is also home to a fair number of Christians and some Muslims, all in broad agreement that porn is harmful.

. ISSN 0004-0002. PMC 7300076 . PMID 32356083. We recently published a paper titled "Abstinence from Masturbation and Hypersexuality" (Zimmer & Imhoff, 2020) in which we tried to explore correlates of men's motivation to stay abstinent from masturbation. In motivating the study, we pointed to existing discourses around the topic and cited different protagonists within this debate (e.g., the Web sites "nofap.org" and "rebootnation.org").

Is there any way that masturbation can cause harm? Seventy years ago, a child might have been told that masturbation would cause insanity, acne, sterility, or other such nonsense. "Self-abuse," as it was then called, has enjoyed a long and unfortunate history of religious and medical disapproval (Caroll, 2013). The modern view is that masturbation is a normal sexual behavior (Hogarth & Ingham, 2009). Enlightened parents are well aware of this fact. Still, many children are punished or made to feel guilty for touching their genitals. This is unfortunate because masturbation itself is harmless. Typically, its only negative effects are feelings of fear, guilt, or anxiety that arise from learning to think of masturbation as "bad" or "wrong." In an age when people are urged to practice "safer sex," masturbation remains the safest sex of all.
