Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Why would your body respond to a perceived glut of mating (your body cannot tell the difference between intercourse and masturbation) with erectile disfunction? That would be a negative response spiral that would ensure extinction. It's actually the other way around: if functions of your body aren't getting used, they get cannibalized to save energy. This is why people with penises get erections at night: your body is ensuring it still works. Same reason why nocturnal emissions happen. Your body will ensure you can successfully mate even if you aren't mating on a regular basis.
Your body absolutely reacts differently to sex than masturbation. I'm not defending this idiotic no nut stuff but there's no need to state misinformation.

They must be relating it to refractory period somehow...
(Not agreeing with their conclusion, trying to imagine what they are "observing")
wait so I can commit to not working out so hard that I actually cannibalize my body fat? Pog
It would cannibalize your muscle, it's called atrophy
Only if you also commit to not exercising your mouth.
So.. No blowjobs then?
It's like literally one of the most basic functions of the human body...
