So basically I'm in college now and I've set this "rule" down for myself where basically I can't jerk off anymore.
I'm just wondering if there are any positive/negative effects that may come of this.
Thanks

Why stop? I understand the constraints of sharing a room with someone you (possibly) don't know and the awkwardness of getting caught, but it's a natural form of release and is actually quite healthy. Masturbation takes care of those sexual needs, of course, but it's also great for reducing stress and anxiety levels, at least for a little while. If you're worried about getting caught at it, why not just do it in the shower, or during a time when you absolutely know for sure that your roommate is in class or something?

Jesus will love you more now.
Ok...now for a serious answer: It'll decrease your sexual stamina. Regular masturbation keeps it high and just quitting all together puts you at risk of seriously disappointing your partner.
Don't worry there are no really serious negative effects. The sperm that gets produced will just die off after maturing and get recycled in the body so don't think its like holding your pee in and sitting around with a full bladder.
Great question by the way.

I'm not a guy but I'm sure a big negative is going to be you'll be a little more stressed and tense. A positive would probably be the fact that you have self control not to masturbate. Good luck.

Lets see the negative thing is that you may just get horny and want to nut but dont start freaking alot of girls cus that may not be good. So hey it's your choice. I'm in college now also but i dont masturbate at all but i'm not about to have sex with every dude i see.

Effects: I found if I go too long without having an orgasm my chest gets tight, my hands shake, my eyes start to cross and I can't think straight. I start rationalizing all the locker room bull**** about its OK to lie, she really wants it etc. I also start to get mean as a rattlesnake about to shed its skin. Thanks but I'd rather masturbate. And, anybody who tells me I'm sinning if I do is likely to be lucky if all they get is a broken jaw.

I think if you stop you will get distracted in your studies because you will possibly get agitated and backed up and feel like that is all that is on your mind. I personally don't think there is any reason to stop. Plus, if you stop and have sex with a girl then you won't last long.

I can't think of any positive effects, but it would make me more stressful if I quite masturbating.

it may make you get up enough nerve to talk to more girls, so that you may forget about the need for the rule in the first place.

Why would you ever stop if you enjoy it? It's actually good for you, I think there is a lesser rate of testicular cancer in men who are more sexually active.
