Comment on Why I won't be participating in No Nut November

  Basically people who believe in pseudoscience about “retaining” being good for you (which is the opposite of what medical research has proved) and/or a sign of mental fortitude, nonsense like that.

  To make matters worse, there’s a lot of overlap with “men’s rights” and other organized misogyny groups such as Proud Boys and toxic masculinity peddlers such as Andrew Tate and the like.

  TL;DR: It’s silly at best, and deeply problematic if not downright harmful in many cases

    I’m going to nut extra hard to counter those who refuse to.

        If there is a god, then I want them to shower blessings upon anyone who puts Olivia Munn in my message inbox.

  Originated in the same country that invented cereals and crackers to discourage masturbation. Masturbation bad. Pedophilia and rape ok.

  Right wing puritan sex-scared propaganda campaign.

  Apparently, if you avoid doing a thing for a brief period of time, it is a demonstration of self-control and virtue. Thus, you are a better person and can nut, drink and eat uncontrollably for the entire rest of the year. I don’t personally believe in such practices. Do anything whenever you feel like it, but in moderation.

    While self control, doing difficult things, and fasting are good things to do, this is a very different situation. No nut is an obsession for a chunk of the nebula of Right wing, Christian, white nationalist, and Incel communities. (For the people jumping to “not all”, shut up. You’re just in a different part of the Venn diagram or are disingenuous. Also you still suck.) Making it no nut November is the really toxic parts of the manosphere getting others to do stupid stuff and doing stupid performative stuff.

  I think it was mostly an excuse to post jokes, but some people do believe being repressed is a sign of a stronger person. Or that “self care” is bad in some way - most of that comes from the lingering religious shame many were brought up with.

  Used to be a joke playing off of “No Shave November” until parts of the internet took it with no irony, just like it always does.
