Guys are going to dispute this forever
My take is that there is a good reason ancient armies forbade their soldiers to sleep with their wives in the weeks before a great battle. These guys have been saying this shit for thousands of years. I'd venture its from personal experience. Their men were more hungry and vicious when they were brimming with testosterone and sexual vitality.
Ancient chinese believe in life energy (chi) and spirit energy (shen). It is like a ladder. Testosterone and other chemicals in your body accumulate and synergize, growing your chi. As a person's chi grows, it gets transmuted into Shen over time.
Sidenote: A tangible, physical sign of healthy shen was believed to be shiny, glinty eyes. Something that in todays world is also recognized as a physical sign of healthy testosterone levels. So maybe it isn't all mumbo jumbo. Its crazy to think they pretty much had this figured out over 2000 years ago.
Ancient indians believed masturbation negatively affects the lower chakras, which are responsible for both the physical and spiritual side of sexual desire.
This many people saying this shit for this long of a time has to have some merit somewhere, just my opinion.
