Do Semen Retention & NoFap Really Attract Women (increased Attraction)
Note: This is a two part series. Part 2 will be found further down on this page!
Ever wondered if semen retention really do attract women?
Or if NoFap helps with women attraction?
Or could it be that it's quitting porn that makes people more attracted to you?
Well, you just found the biggest retention / NoFap attraction article on the web.
Let's get started...
Do Semen Retention & NoFap Really Attract Women?
As a middle-aged man who has been looking into this for 10 years by now, I'm absolutely certain that there are, in fact, not just one, but many reasons behind why guys can start experiencing an increase in attraction on NoFap.
You have to stay with me during the whole video here because I'm going to talk about the more theoretical and mysterious reasons later on that will blow your mind.
But first, let's start with the more obvious ones that aren't really that mysterious, and that real science actually can explain.
How semen retention and NoFap can increase female attraction...
I mean, we all know what happens if we fast from eating food for a while. Your taste buds become more sensitive, and when you start eating again, food tastes amazing.
Even normal foods without spices.
Same thing happens when you stop numbing your dopamine system with all kinds of crazy adult content as well, you start finding normal-looking girls more and more attractive.
This is nothing strange at all.
When you stop blasting your dopamine system with super potent porn you start finding real life girls more attractive again - Obviously they respond to that...
In fact, this one is easy to explain by real neuroscience.
And if you start noticing women more, then obviously they are going to start paying attention to you more as well. That's just how nature works.
Another reason is confidence itself...
Confidence is another reason behind the NoFap attraction...
Yes, we all know that confidence is an attractive trait, especially women find confidence to be at the very top of the list when it comes to attraction.
And when you stop over-consuming porn, you get a better functioning dopamine system with more dopamine receptors.
And with a better functioning dopamine system, you have less anxiety and more energy, which instantly translates into more confidence as well.
People who are more confident and dominant have more dopamine receptors...
And by the way, they have even done studies that show how leaders and more dominant people have more dopamine receptors in the brain. And again, leaders and go-getters tend to get more attention and attraction as well.
Yes, indeed, studies have actually found a correlation between dopamine receptor density and social status in both animals and humans.
So, it's actually real science I'm referring to here and not just .bro science'.
And for many people, the confidence thing is also affected by the psychology behind their porn use. I mean, when you stop doing things you need to hide, you instantly become a more confident man who has an easier time looking people in the eye without having to flinch at all.
Just think about it…

The psychological part of doing something you need to 'hide'...
What signals are you sending your subconscious brain when you frequently do an activity where you have to pull down your curtains so that no one can see you, and then you spend the next two hours with your pants around your ankles, jerking it to all kinds of nasty porn categories?
Well, then when you stop doing things like that and there's nothing more to hide. Of course that's going to start to lift your confidence as well, at least on a subconscious level, even if you don't notice it.
A change in hormone levels?
And as if that wasn't enough, then we could potentially see a change in hormone levels when guys retain as well. Now, the jury is still out on that one.
At least there aren't many studies on it, but studies on rats have, at the very least, shown how excessive busting causes a decrease in androgen receptors.
Androgen receptors and retention...
You should know that androgen receptors are small receptors that testosterone itself binds to in order to be able to do its job properly and give us all the effects of testosterone. And the same studies also show how those receptors upregulate and grow denser with abstinence.
If I remember correctly, it took the rats about 14 to 15 days to upregulate the androgen receptors after the rats had been bursting to exhaustion.
Now, those were animal studies, but it's highly likely that busting too much has the same effect on humans.
It would not be strange if biology had made it so that women can pick up when something is going on with hormones in a male...
And here's the thing...
It wouldn't surprise anyone if biology had made it so that women pick up on things related to testosterone, as it's truly the king of male hormones, right there.
Now, what's even more of an attraction factor is that NoFap is what we call a keystone habit, meaning more often than not, NoFap also leads to other good habits in life.
NoFap is a keystone habit that often creates an upward spiral. And people notice...
Yes, guys who go on a NoFap journey also start doing other good habits, and before long, they have actually started to make significant improvements in several areas.
Now, obviously, people will start noticing if you quickly start improving yourself and you start leveling up in life, especially women who have an inbuilt attraction mechanism to status will notice things like that.
Yeah, so these are things that are easy to understand, and they can even be talked about on a pure scientific and psychological level.
Semen retention and female attraction will continue in part 2...
But now, it will get even more interesting here...
However, in order to not make this video too long, I will continue to speculate about an idea I have about semen retention and the mysterious women attraction phenomenon in part two.
That video is going to be even more interesting, I'm telling you guys. Oh man, because hey, I'm the first one to admit that that idea cannot be proven. It's not a concrete thing.
But man, I find it absolutely fascinating...
Semen Retention / NoFap Attraction PART 2
Note: you can find links to what I'm talking about in the end of the video further down in the text
Welcome to part two of the NoFap attraction series.
Let's continue talking a bit about the fascinating retention attraction phenomenon.
Does NoFap increase female attraction?
Okay, so I'm going to speculate a bit here, and as I said in the first video, this one is going to be much more abstract and not so much rooted in science as the last time. But man, stay with me here because that makes it even more interesting.
So let me start by asking you a couple of questions, and I'm leading up to my idea here, so stay with me as I'm building up to the point.
Are you able to spend time with yourself?
How many of you are spending a lot of time with yourself?
Now, before you think of an answer in your head, I'm not talking about being alone. I'm talking about spending time with yourself.
Look, as soon as people have one or two minutes over, they escape by distracting themselves with something.
Now, I'm guilty of this myself, so it's not like I'm pointing any fingers here. But just think about this, as soon as you have five minutes of extra time or you are a bit bored, you instantly pick up your phone and start scrolling, right?
Be honest with yourself here!
And five minutes is even pushing it here. For most people in today's world it's more like one minute. We simply can not spend time with ourselves without reaching for the phone...
- Food
- Music
- Social media
- Drama
- Internet
- Porn
- Alcohol
- Etc...
Not even just for one single minute.
I mean, seriously, be honest here.
How often do you just spend mindful time with yourself, where you are just observing your thoughts and just being aware and present without doing or distracting yourself with anything?
I'll tell you, for most people, it is almost never.
We just don't want to spend deep time with ourselves.
Okay, so next question, listen up now...
What signals are you sending your subconscious mind if you always run away from your own company?
What signals do you think you are sending your subconscious mind if you always run away from yourself as soon as there is one minute without anything to do?
If you never want to spend even just four minutes with yourself, what signals are you sending your subconscious mind then?
The signals you're sending your subconscious mind if you always run away from yourself is, of course, that you are not worthy of spending time with.
That's right, and here's the deal...
If you don't want to spend time with yourself, then why would anyone else want to?
Have you ever heard the phrase "as within, so without"?
Ah, see what I'm getting at here?
If you make your subconscious mind think that you are not worthy of spending time with, and if reality is but a mirror reflecting your inner world, then you can bet your boots that no woman is going to think that you are worth spending that much time with either.
At least not to the point that they start feeling some mysterious retention attraction energy there.
Reality is but a mirror reflecting your inner world...
Reality is but a mirror reflecting your inner world, and I have personally started to believe that this is especially true when it comes to your subconscious mind.
And here's the real kicker, so listen up now...
The ultimate form of self-rejection is when you take that fundamental part of you that is designed to make you go out there and reproduce, in other words, your sexuality, and you use that to escape into chasing porn clip after porn clip on some adult website.
That is the ultimate form of escapism because your sexuality is the strongest force in human nature.

Your sexuality is the strongest force in human nature...
So, if you make a spectrum out of this, where the left side is running away from yourself by distraction, and the right side here (*see video) is spending time with yourself, being aware and present, then fapping to adult sites would be all the way over to the left here.
And of course, we also have all the other distractions like...
- Alcohol
- Smartphones
- Drugs
- Social media
- And on and on....
This is what happens if you start spending more time with yourself...
But now, let's look at the other side.
What are you doing when you are meditating, for example?
Well, that's right, you are listening to your thoughts and your feelings, just being aware.
You are spending time with you.
Or if you take a walk in nature without distracting yourself by listening to a podcast, again, you are spending quality time with you.
Or when you are doing stuff like retention or fasting, you know, where you get urges to eat or release, but you just listen to those urges without escaping, again, you are spending time with you, without escaping the urges and without escaping you.
You see, urges are a part of you, and for once, you are not escaping. You are not escaping yourself.
For once, you are actually spending time with yourself.
You reinforce the self-notion that you are worthy of spending time with - And it moirors outwards..
And let me ask you this..
What signals are you now sending your subconscious mind?
Well, that's right, you are sending signals that you are a creature worthy of spending time with, and now people around you will start spending time with you as well because, remember, reality is but a reflection of your inner world.
So, this is actually when people around you will start to sense that mysterious semen retention attraction that so many guys have experienced on NoFap.
This is why the NoFap attraction gets amplified by self-care...
And this is also why so many guys say that the NoFap attraction seems to get amplified if they also implement things like meditation, fasting, or just plain work in nature, being one with everything.
Guys, I have been thinking a lot about this lately, and as a middle-aged man thinking back on my life, I can remember certain individuals who people just wanted to be around and spend time with.
A story from my own life and my first experience with NoFap attraction...
For example, my first girlfriend had a brother that everyone wanted to be around. Guys respected him and wanted to be his friend. Wherever he went, women always looked at him and gave him a smile, and he wasn't even super good-looking or anything.
Heck, even animals loved him.
Yeah, my girlfriend at the time and I had a dog, and that dog was absolutely crazy about him.
And you know what?
I felt it too.
I just wanted to be around him, and I remember thinking, "What is it with this guy?"
Now, this was 26 years ago, way before there were any NoFap forums out there. In fact, the internet was just rolling out. And of course, as the years went by, I almost forgot about my first girlfriend as well as this guy.
I didn't know what was going on back then...
But today, when I'm thinking back on my life, I remember that my first girlfriend told me that his brother did a lot of meditation.
And at that time, I hardly even knew what meditation was, and I just thought that sounded strange and almost stupid.
I remember that she also said that he hardly watched any movies at all and spent most of his time out in nature.
What does this mean then?
Well, in other words, he spent a lot of time with himself on a very deep level, without escaping. And sure enough, when I'm thinking back on it now, if I had to describe what he had with one single word, it would be "presence".
Presence is a big factor behind NoFap attraction...
So, it's not so much about women attraction since guys wanted to be around him as well.
Heck, it's not even people attraction since dogs went crazy about him.
It's just plain and simple attraction.
Now, this was just one example. Over the years, I have met several men like this.
Another example from my life...
For example, one time during a music gig when I played the trumpet a few years ago, I saw someone that I first thought had to be some kind of celebrity since he had so many people around him all the time.
But no, it turned out that he was just an organist that was supposed to play with us during the gig.
And he had that exact same thing, that super deep presence and strange vibe around him.
NoFap + mediation + fasting...
And later on, when I got to know him, I learned that he too practiced NoFap, he does intermittent fasting, and he does a lot of meditation.
Ahaa...hm...
And I can see more and more of things like this. Also, about two months ago, I published a video where I shared one of my personal experiences with this whole NoFap attraction phenomenon.
I will link to that video at the end of this one, so I won't go into detail about it here ***
*** Se post ==> Dopamine Detox + NoFap = Attraction
But let me just say that in that video, I talked about me doing a 48-hour fast from food and where I also started to do a dopamine fast, by basically unhooking from all technology for two days.
I did the ultimate self-care...
Yeah, that's right. I just took two whole days where I meditated and went for walks in nature all day long. In other words, I was spending deep, deep time with myself, being present, not escaping anything.
I must have meditated maybe 20-30 times during those two days as well. And in addition to this, I was riding on a good retention streak.
And in that video, I share how, when the fast was over, and I went out shopping for some clothes, I experienced one of the strangest evenings of my life. Almost everyone looked at me in the store, complete strangers.
I experienced amazing NoFap / retention attraction...
Girls were smiling, and to be honest, I felt like some kind of mini movie star. And this even happened before I started to think deeply about this theory I have shared with you today.
After that evening, I really started to do some deep thinking about it.
And of course, I will continue to think and wonder because I'm not claiming I have solved anything here. But at least I gave you the spectrum here and the concept of you running away from yourself versus spending time with yourself for you to think of.
And I'd like to end by asking you, if it really is the case that reality is but a reflection of your inner world, how much are you going to keep polluting your subconscious mind with the dopamine industrial complex that we have in today's world?
That's just a question!
You can't keep polluting your mind with low value dopamine, like online porn...
Oh yeah, guys, it all starts with you leaving the porn behind for good. That is the absolute biggest piece of this. At least, that is something I'm absolutely 100% certain about.
And I'm also convinced that dopamine and dopamine receptors play a big part in this whole attraction phenomenon.
And the thing is, it is very, very, very hard to be a grounded man with a lot of awareness and a strong presence if you frequently keep numbing yourself and escaping into the nasty world of adult sites.
If you need help with quitting porn...
And if you didn't know by now, if you need help with this, I highly recommend you check out a free webinar / online course where Josh Hudson, a licensed therapist, talks about a specific habit construction therapy method that is designed especially for people who want to stop watching porn for good.
You know, I would say that that system is the best system you can currently find out there. At least, I haven't seen anything like it since it's designed in a way that it actually removes most of your urges to even watch porn in the first place, and naturally, that's going to make it so much easier to quit.
You can read full reviews of that course and the HCT method in any of the following articles here...
