Reading about this month and starting to think about it, it occurs to me that masturbating, at least in my experience as a guy, is a bit like eating and being horny is a bit like being hungry. With hunger, at different times we can be completely satisfied with no interest in food, we can be a bit peckish such that if we were doing something else that held our attention we would probably continue and not stop for food but if we are bored we may snack, and we can be properly hungry where getting something to eat takes priority over other things. Then, just as being hungry allows as to enjoy the flavours of food when we eat, so being horny gives us a chance to enjoy the pleasure of orgasm.
So does that make No Nut November like Ramadan? Actually, NNN is much more extreme. Ramadan does not require those who observe it to eat nothing at all for the whole month, just to fast between dawn and sunset. Why would someone do NNN? I can think of more useful challenges. Then, for me, if I go a whole day and into the next day without cumming, I start to get a bit edgy and am more likely to get angry or impatient so masturbating is actually good for my general mood.
