Recovery Story Specifics

Honestly, it doesn’t surprise me that we are seeing more and more of the “instant gains” crowd. The current generation have greater access to porn, which sets their brain up for failure, greater access to pills that guarantee you’ll gain 4 inches overnight, which we all know doesn’t happen, ever, and a constant indoctrination of Marxism ideals leads them to believe everyone should be equal because government makes it so. I can’t really blame them for wanting something quickly and easily but there should come a time, when the reach the mental age of 14, when they realize the only way to achieve greatness is by putting in an equal amount of “great” work. I hope we can change that narrative but it will take, you guessed it, more work.

I think a central part of the issue is that some people don’t think there’s actually a real chance that they could really hurt themselves when they are doing too much.

I mentioned on another thread that I heard about jelqing from someone else who hadn’t ever done it and tried it as a joke, thinking it wouldn’t do anything. I constantly needed to keep waiting for my erection level to go down, but then figured that, since it couldn’t possibly do anything, it wouldn’t matter if I continued to jelq with a full erection. I never came across any of the forums when I looked it up briefly before trying it, and never saw anything about safety or possible risks. I did see something that said, “Forget magic pills, dangerous pumps, or surgery with knives. Jelqing is completely safe and naturally using only your hands.” I didn’t see any reason to think any differently, aside from doubting it would really work.

Each urologist I saw, who should be ashamed of themselves, told me jelqing fully erect was the same as masturbation, and wouldn’t do anything. Some day, when the truth comes out about how jelqing does work, is not the same as masturbation, and can be dangerous if done improperly, they will be shamed.

The best remedy for the instant gains crowd, I think, is to do whatever possible within reason to ensure they realize the seriousness of the risks, especially if those risks might seem unlikely for certain exercises.

The LSJ Protocol

Alright, look inspirit99. I get you’re not happy. I have read your story. You have linked it countless times. But smearing the forum and linking your new and very clever (actually just spiteful) protocol thread as many places as possible isn’t going to be tolerated.

If you don’t like it here, think everything we do here is bad/foolish or what have you…then that is totally fine. I respect your opinion.

Leave the forum if that is how you feel. Point blank.

No one logs onto this forum for your silliness. We do not owe open shots a voice on a free platform. This is a PE forum. You can complain EVERYWHERE ELSE. Here, it’s just irritating. Period.

So do PE…or leave. It is a PE forum and isn’t a hard call. Not going to warn you again.

I will heed your warning and won’t link it anymore. That protocol is designed to call out a lie propagated by a different forum, which was designed to serve their own interests, and that creates confusion for those with injuries seeking real answers.

I think he provides good information. He shouldn’t be banned for speaking his opinion. Just my two cents. Us fellow injurers need as much information as possible. Please don’t ban him.
