I agree that 'semen buildup' can't be the 'force' behind wet dreams. But there is nevertheless a statistical connection between masturbation rates and wet dream rates. ON AVERAGE, people with less frequent waking sexual outlets have ON AVERAGE more wet dreams.
Virtually everyone who averages 3, 4, or more wet dreams a week doesn't masturbate at all.
Almost everyone who masturbates many times a week has no more than a few random wet dreams over a lifetime, if any at all. A few people fall somewhere in the middle of masturbation and wet dream frequencies.
Look at it terms of percentages. On average, many people who don't masturbate have 5,000% to 10,000% more wet dreams than people who masturbate 10 times a week. On the other hand, frequent masturbators have up to 2,000% to 5,000% more total orgasms than people who have high wet dream rates and don't masturbate.
There are no doubt exceptions, but this is the case in general.
My theory is that the 'brain' tends to go with what it's used to, and it's hard to get it to change. It would be hard to make all Italians give up Italian food and eat only Chinese food. It would be equally hard to get all Chinese people to give up Chinese food and eat only Italian food. Both groups would get 'hungry' for some 'real' food like they used to eat. |
