🚨 What happens when shame becomes the foundation of sexual education?
In this episode of TwoX Labs Podcast, Dr. Erika Miley sits down with Dr. Nicole Prause, a neuroscientist and leading researcher on sexuality, to break down the rise of the manosphere and NoFap culture—and the real damage these movements are causing. Yes TwoX Labs is about cis-women and assigned female at birth people, and this episode is important for providers to know what some of their cis-male clients/patients are exposed to and how it is impacting their cis-women partners.
🔍 NoFap, semen retention, and other anti-m*sturbation ideologies have gained massive popularity online, promising men control, power, and "masculine success." But what does the science say? Dr. Prause dives into how these movements spread misinformation, increase shame, and reinforce toxic masculinity—harming cis-men's mental and s*xual health in the process.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ The origins of NoFap and how it became a gateway to misogynistic ideologies ✅ How the manosphere weaponizes s*xual shame to control men and fuel anti-feminist narratives ✅ The real impact of NoFap culture on mental health, relationships, and sexual function ✅ Why cis-men are at risk for sexual dysfunction and self-hatred from these beliefs ✅ What therapists need to know when working with clients impacted by manosphere ideology
🎧 If you’re a therapist, educator, or just someone trying to understand the impact of s*xual shame on cis-men, this episode is a must-watch.
