The start of the month of November was marked by a peculiar development among the online crowd as a number of people prepared to partake in a sort of annual celibacy challenge.
Known as the “No Nut November”, with the “nut” in this case being slang for ejaculation, the event encourages men to endure thirty days with no sexual release.
