Fapping! What they WON’T tell you in school.
Manage episode 306535232 series 3003828
In this episode we talk about NoFap. If you don't know, NoFap is an internet community based around quitting porn and masturbation as a result of addictive or other self-destructive behaviour. It's certainly a controversial topic, and we try to imbue it with nuance by addressing what we consider to be a very real issue and then attempting to interpret it through the lens of sex positivity. Whether you're onboard the NoFap train or not, this episode will likely challenge your beliefs so we invite you to venture forth with an open and compassionate mind. We hope you enjoy.
