The Science (yup) of Male Chastity
You might not have considered it, but have you ever thought about how Ā your sex life affects your mood? On some careful research and thinking Ā about your own behavior, you might come to conclusion and discover a Ā relationship between sex and mood. Indeed, upon some in depth research Ā we have concluded that the relationship between oneās mood, and sexual Ā activity and orgasm are not considered to be the greatest of mysteries. Ā Indeed, there is a well-researched scientific basis on understanding the Ā biochemical mechanisms that occur before, during and after sexual Ā gratification. In this article, we will explore the relationship between Ā the brain, sexual release, and the science behind male chastity. This Ā in turn, may help you answer some of the questions that you might have Ā had which concerned male chastity, or they might lead to a flurry of Ā research whereby you can explore male chastity in new and profound ways. Ā As we have mentioned elsewhere, to reduce male chastity to the denial Ā of orgasms is simplistic and doesnāt accurately reflect male chastity as Ā a whole.

The brain is a complex organ and we understand that it is driven by a Ā number of varying neurotransmitters which we can hold accountable for Ā changing our moods throughout the day, and indeed over the course of our Ā lives. But there are only a couple of these neurotransmitters which are Ā also involved with sexual activity; these three being dopamine, Ā prolactin and oxytocin. Men and women can be said to have distinctly Ā different patterns and responses to these neurotransmitters and the Ā argument behind that is that it centres on our ability, needs and Ā desires to procreate as well as to raise our off-spring so that they too Ā can survive long enough to procreate. Why donāt some people feel this Ā need or urge? Well that relates to the fourth factor which is the Ā concentration of receptors for those neurotransmitters and this in Ā particular relates to how the human body handles dopamine.
Letās break Ā down these three neurotransmitters and how they affect our body, and our Ā responses to sexual activity before we move on to how that relates to Ā male chastity. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
What is Dopamine? Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Dopamine is commonly associated with the brains reward and pleasure Ā centers. It can cause feelings of pleasure if we partake in certain Ā activities, such as sexual activity, the consumption of calorie rich Ā foods, the ingestion of drugs, or other behaviors such as shopping and Ā gambling. Dopamine is often referred to as the addictive hormone ā Ā people with low dopamine levels have been shown to have higher risks of Ā suffering from addictions. Surprisingly, it is dopamine which is also Ā partially responsible for Parkinsonās disease which sees people with a Ā dopamine deficiency potentially developing the illness. The intense Ā pleasure that we obtain from orgasms is as a result of dopamine flooding Ā our reward centers in our brain during sexual activity. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Normal/Elevated Dopamine Levels: Normal levels of dopamine can result Ā in motivation, contentment, an ability to gather pleasure from Ā finishing tasks, optimism, kindness and good natured feelings towards Ā others and bond with them as well as a healthy libido. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Low Dopamine Levels: Lower levels of dopamine can result in Ā depression and an inability to function within the world due to a lack Ā of ambition and drive, it can also result in an inability to feel Ā certain emotions such as love, and often manifests itself into impaired Ā judgement, lack of remorse and social anxiety. Low dopamine levels also Ā adversely affect the libido. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
What Is Prolactin? Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Prolactin is an interesting neurotransmitter and it is named after Ā its ability to affect lactation levels in women. This neurotransmitter Ā has over 300 uses within the body, but itās effects on the orgasm are Ā well researched in comparison to other uses. An orgasm, through either Ā physical sex or masturbation, will result in a large amount of prolactin Ā being released into the body. It is this chemical which results in a Ā better mood following sexual activity, and can last for over an hour. Ā Prolactin and Dopamine rely on each other for context and control when Ā it comes to sexual activity. Prolactin in men directly affects the Ā refractory period before they can maintain an erection and engage in Ā sexual activities again. The older that you get, the more prolactin is Ā produced in men. Males with a deficiency in prolactin are often able to Ā engage in sexual activity multiple times within a very short amount of Ā time, or they will not lose their erection after climaxing. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Excess levels of prolactin are commonly associated with irritability, decreased testosterone, and a substantial loss of libido. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
What Is Oxytocin? Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Often call the love drug ā oxytocin is responsible for the feelings Ā of trust, connectedness, closeness and protection. A burst of oxytocin Ā is produced during orgasm and it is often attributed to the afterglow Ā that we feel post sexual activity. Oxytocin is released during all forms Ā of intimate activity, which includes touching, hugging and caressing. Ā After orgasm, in men, the levels of oxytocin quickly plummet until they Ā are below where they were before sexual activity, whereas in women it Ā will lower itself much more slowly, often remaining higher than it was Ā initially. The reasons for this remain largely unclear, though Ā speculation exists that it is linked to ideas of empathy and is a Ā necessary part of bonding, child birth, and child rearing, this also Ā means that post orgasm that women are far more likely to let their guard Ā down and fall in love. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Normal/Elevated levels of Oxytocin:- This is the love drug after all and as such elevated levels will result in strong and powerful feelings of emotion, a sense of devotion and Ā closeness, an increased sense of positivist, and feelings or protection and responsibility. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Low Oxytocin Levels:- Sees a reduction of feelings of attachment and connection, it is also Ā responsible for low libido and depression, as well as a reduction of Ā empathy towards others. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
How Does This Affect A Man In Chastity? Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
We just spoke about how an orgasm results in a substantial drop after Ā an orgasm in a male, with the females drop occurring more slowly in the Ā sense of a plateauing effect. What if we were to avoid this sudden drop Ā by removing it all together? In detailed blogposts by Sarah Jameson on Ā her male chastity blog, she details how after each orgasm there Ā would be a period of time where her partner, John, would not be as Ā engaging in the sense of serving and helping, as he was before his Ā orgasm. She timed this sensation to last for a period of between 7-10 Ā days and she has used this tracking to expand the periods as to which he Ā remains caged. If we switch John to engaging in sexual activity once or Ā twice per week, which could be considered to be normal, then the levels Ā of the neurotransmitters which we have just discussed would never Ā really stabilize and as such it would be a continual roller coaster ride Ā of emotions.
