Flee, imagine if every time you had sex there was a 1 in 100 chance the Quake would be erased from history
More like "if a 100 people had frequent sex for a year, 1 one of them would have Quake erased for them at the end". If you'd go by people having sex twice a week, that'd be one unlucky fuck out of 10,000 - with the possibility of lowering that further by doings things like pulling out or being aware of when the woman is most fertile. I'll take those odds.
then you're a silly person
For having a single video game erased for me? Verb, I would gladly have Quake erased with 100% certainty just to have a healthy sex life with my girlfriend.
i repeat my assertion

Does that include sex or what?
It's up to you, but I think having sex is sort of going against the spirit of the idea.
Eh, if sex is included I already failed anyways. Seems kind of pointless too.
i'm sitting here cracking up at the idea that it is pointless to avoid doing pointless things
But there's notable health and relational benefits to it, hardly making it pointless anymore. It also seems inconsistent with your whole philosophy to be so against suffering but then reject pleasure.
benefits that can surely be achieved elsewhere and in higher quantities
masturbation = 10-30 minutes of time wasted for 3-5 seconds of pleasure; that doesn't seem very efficient
and i don't need to talk about the risks associated with intercourse
I know the risks about intercourse but realistically speaking relationships generally require some level of sexual activity to survive. It's pretty essential.
The risks are also pretty minimal in many relationships. Don't have STDs and use some form of protection, and the risks are almost completely gone.
the safest sex possible is 98.8% successful (over the course of a year of sex)
if every time you had sex, there was a 1 in 100 chance for your head to explode (or something equally horrific), would you still do it
That's not how that statistic works. "For example, when used correctly the male condom is 98% effective, but that's not to say there is a 2% chance of becoming pregnant every time you use one. A 2% failure rate actually means that for every 100 woman using the contraceptive method for an entire year, two will experience an unintended pregnancy."
this was specifically noted in the post
not entirely sure how you missed that when it's two lines long
Because you then went on to say "if every time you had sex, there was a 1 in 100 chance for your head to explode (or something equally horrific), would you still do it", which is a wrong interpretation of that statistic. And as I pointed out in that other comment, that'd be more like 1 in 10,000 depending on how often these people had sex.
given that it was the second line, you should've taken that as a mistake rather than a misinterpretation—i don't think most people would've been confused by that the point is, 1 in 10K = unacceptably high odds

But we're not talking about your position or about whether you think it's a benefit. We're talking about me and whether I should consider these things (any more) beneficial than what I'm currently doing. i'm speaking objectively, not what i think if i were talking about what i think, then i would be 100% on your side the stupid parts of my brain are agreeing with you, but the smart parts of my brain aren't, and that's what i'm trying to utilize in this discussion i am biologically hardwired to enjoy sexual activity, but i choose not to be owned by biological impulses You also didn't really respond to what I asked for. Of course there's other things you can do that give similar benefits. But is there something as quick, effortless, cost-efficient and fun that does the same thing? Everything you've listed takes more money, time or effort than sex all while being much less enjoyable. this is just false it's not something that i can easily prove i think there's a degree of closed-mindedness and willful ignorance that i think you personally need to get over in order to see my point here

Gee
If only you can get all these benefits from some activity that only takes 1O minutes a day
several of the activities i described take even less time and either way, risk of pregnancy should scare the shit out of you to a point where it nullifies the time spent achieving the pleasure

that's a pretty naive thing to say maybe that would be true in the 19th century, or in fucking china, but not today in the first world

You like sex, that's okay. But its benefits are minimal and can be achieved elsewhere via more intellectual pursuits, and none of those more intellectual pursuits have risk of pregnancy, which is the worst thing that could possibly happen ever. 
to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to be celibate

Verbatim needs a girlfriend badly. I don't mean it in a disrespectful way, most people here do. Shit I know it'd make me a better person.
yeah, i wouldn't mind i remember telling you awhile ago that the main reason i didn't have one is because i didn't consider myself "adjusted" enough, but i think for now, i feel like i'm at a point where i could start actively pursuing that kind of thing again, maybe it's gonna be extremely tough, though—assuming i meet the right girl, and she happens to like me, the relationship cannot happen if she wants to have children, is religious, or has a negative opinion about veganism like i'm okay with the idea of dating someone who disagrees with me about a lot of things, because i've discovered over the years that i'm actually attracted to that sort of thing, but there are certain things that i cannot compromise on

You are welcome to substantiate the same benefits you'll get elsewhere with the same amount of effort. I'm particularly interested in things like improving your immune system, lowering the chance of prostate cancer, ridding yourself of disease-causing toxins building up in your urinary tract, reducing the risk of erectile dysfunction, improving the quality of sperm, relieving tension, helping people sleep and so on. I very much doubt that you'll be able to find something as easy, fun and quick that does all of those things at once. first of all, no you're not secondly: - Re: Immune system improval—Fruit is fucking delicious, and eating lots of it (while cutting out less healthy foods from your system, like meat) can help improve your immune system. Quick, easy, fun. Exercise helps too, but that's an acquired taste in terms of how much fun you have doing it. - Re: Prostate cancer prevention—Once again, plant-based diets can help reduce your odds of prostate cancer, because fats absorbed from plants are much healthier than the fats you absorb from animals. Giving up meat may not be quick, easy, and fun for you, but it has the added benefit of being ethical, which obviously beats out everything else. - Re: Prevention of bacteria build-up—Literally just urinate. Drink lots of water. Bathe. Wear loose clothing. I really don't think there's such a colossal risk of this sort of thing happening, assuming you have decent hygiene. - Re: Improving sperm quality—This is not a benefit, lmao - Re: Relieving tension—This is by far the easiest. There's so many things you can do. You already play video games. You already consume lots of media entertainment. Maybe not so much anymore, since you're a busy guy, but still. That should give you some ideas. Get more rest. - Re: Helping sleep—Okay, you know what? If you were to masturbate exclusively to help you sleep, I actually wouldn't begrudge you that. Sleep is a tough one if you're not getting enough of it (or can't), and I think spending 20-30 minutes is a fair trade for getting your 8 hours of rest. But that's it. That is the only worthwhile benefit that can't easily be replicated elsewhere. You like sex, that's okay. But its benefits are minimal and can be achieved elsewhere via more intellectual pursuits, and none of those more intellectual pursuits have risk of pregnancy, which is the worst thing that could possibly happen ever. And if all you get out of 30 minutes of sex or masturbation is 3-5 seconds of pleasure then you're doing something wrong. masturbation is 20-30 minutes of sheer boredom for one brief spike of intense pleasure the only reason i would encourage celibacy is pregnancy, as no amount of pleasure can justify it The argument also seems to apply to just about everything. If you make the argument that video games aren't pointless because you get something out of it, then I'm sure there's things that'll achieve the same benefits.
it's all about cost efficiency if there are things more efficient in terms of entertaining myself than playing video games, watching movies, reading, writing, or even listening to music, i'm all ears from my position, all of those things are a better use of time than masturbation

There's a myriad of benefits to doing these things that are not exclusive to doing those things you're intentionally grabbing the short end of the stick, is my point

Kinda disillusioned with Nolan a bit. I used to think he was a fucking god when I was fifteen, but as right now, the Dark Knight is the only thing he's made that I still love.

That was a god movie

what's wrong with rian
he has made three movies, none of which are particularly outstanding unless you're talking about his breaking bad episodes, i don't watch tv shows
