Okay, here’s my blog post about whether masturbation causes acne, written from a personal, practical perspective:
So, I got curious about this whole “does whacking it cause pimples” thing. I mean, you hear it whispered about, right? Like some old wives’ tale. I figured, the only way to really know is to test it out myself. Not exactly scientific, but hey, it’s my face.
My Little Experiment
First, I had to get a baseline. I spent about a month, keeping my, uh, “activities” to a minimum. Like, maybe once a week, tops. I watched my skin carefully. Took some pictures (yikes, nobody else is seeing those!). I made notes of any breakouts. My skin during this time? Pretty average, honestly. Some small zits here and there, nothing crazy.
Then came the, uh, active phase. I bumped things up. We’re talking every day, sometimes even… well, you get the idea. I kept the rest of my routine the same: same face wash, same moisturizer, same questionable diet. Didn’t change nothing.
The Results (or Lack Thereof)
I did this for another month. I kept taking those awful close-up photos, and kept jotting down notes about my skin. And guess what? Absolutely nothing changed. My skin was pretty much the same as it was during my “low-tide” month.
- Phase 1 (Low Activity): Normal skin, occasional small pimples.
- Phase 2 (High Activity): Pretty much the same. A few zits, nothing major.
Now, I’m not a dermatologist. I’m just a dude with a face and a, well, you know. But for me, personally, jacking off didn’t seem to have any impact on my acne. It’s probably different for everyone. Maybe my hormones are just weird. Maybe I got * knows?
My takeaway? This whole masturbation-acne connection seems like a load of bunk, at least in my experience. It’s probably more about your overall hygiene, your diet, and your genetics.I just kept doing what I was doing.
