How much of a toll are you talking about here?

Well, 24 hours have passed. I'm kinda high-strung. Could be the sugars or lack of whacking off. Who knows...

How much of a toll are you talking about here?
In a front-page story on December 3, 1992, the New York Times reported startling scientific research that seems to confirm the ancient Taoist insight about the toll that sperm production takes on a man's body. "These results are the last thing I had expected when I started doing the experiment," said Wayne Van Voorhies of the University of Arizona. "They were so startling that I did the work over four times to make sure I got it right. They basically say a lot of our preconceived notions [about male sexuality] just do not hold."
Dr. Van Voorhies was studying simple but revealing worms called nematodes. What, you may ask, do worms have to do with your sexuality'. Well, these nematodes are not just your everyday, garden-variety worms. "The genes and biochemical processes nematodes use," explains Dr. Philip Anderson of the University of Wisconsin, "are the same as those that humans and other mammals use." In scientific studies, nematodes are frequently used in place of human subjects.
Dr. Van Voorhies tested three kinds of male worms. The first group of worms was allowed to mate at will, which required frequent sperm production. On average, these Don Juan worms lived only 8.1 days. (Nematodes, in general, don’t live very long.) The second group of worms was not allowed to mate at all. These, shall we say, monastic worms lived an average of 11.1 days. But even more startling, the third group, the multi-orgasmic worms that did not constantly have to produce sperm but were allowed to mate at will, lived close to 14 days – over 50 percent longer than the worms that needed to continually produce sperm!
The Times concluded: "The new work suggests that ceaseless sperm production takes its toll on a male, perhaps requiring the use of complex enzymes or biochemical processes that have harmful metabolic byproducts." The Times goes so far as to suggest that "the difference in life span between men and women just may be linked to sperm production. Women on average live about six years longer than men." There are other theories to explain the disparity in life expectancy between men and women, including differences in lifestyle and in hormones. Whether or not the production of sperm actually shortens your life, it certainly saps your strength.
Over two thousand years ago – long before experiments on nematodes – the Taoists described the importance of not ejaculating in the Discourse on the Highest Tao Under Heaven: "If a man has intercourse without spilling his seed, his vital essence is strengthened. If he does this twice, his hearing and vision are made clear. If three times, all his physical illness will disappear. The fourth time he will begin to feel inner peace. The fifth time his blood will circulate powerfully. The sixth time his genitals will gain new prowess. By the seventh his thighs and buttocks will become firm. The eighth time his body will radiate good health. The ninth time his life span will be increased." Ancient texts exaggerate to make their point, and it is unlikely that the above benefits occur in this exact order or at the exact specified time. However, it is clear that Taoists have long known the importance of conserving semen.

Had a girl over tonight who's just a friend, but she's been looking to get laid since she broke up with her bf. I missed my window of opportunity tonight, didn't actually notice it till 5 or 10 mintues later
Unless such an opportunity strikes again, I'm sure I can do this quite a while. I did it for 3 and a half months when working at a kid's ranch in the middle of nowhere between nothing but forests and hills. Also pretty much did the same while treeplanting for 3.5 months, but it's pretty easy in that circumstance.

I've got a question:
What's the longest anyone here has gone without ejaculating?
That is, no wanking, no sex, and NO WET DREAMS?

I'm abstinent and do the Tantric penis exercises, but I can't seem to go more than a couple weeks without a wet dream.
Do all the contestants know wet dreams count?

Can I still get in on this, it sounds like an interesting challenge. Not really interested in the money, I just doubt I will last very long.

it's morning and it doesnt even matter. So how many people are left?
