    If you've started a reboot, you'll not be edging.. which is prolonged M sans O.

    Edging has multiple definitions but one outcome. The outcome or goal of edging is to elevate dopamine in the brain for prolonged periods which is the most harmful form of self pleasure in pmo. It can be watching porn without masturbating. It can be masturbating to porn for prolonged sessions where you hold off orgasm. Basically when you're watching porn and masturbating and you avoid orgasm and then start again to prolong your session, some people edge for hours. Some people use the term to refer to calming down during sex and avoiding orgasm and starting again but that isn't what we are talking about. It's basically stopping right before orgasm and starting again and doing this over and over, or watching porn without masturbating. Go to Yourbrainonporn.com and do the research for yourself and look at the science behind the harm it is doing and how it is causing sexual dysfunctions.

    Just to clarify ... you can edge without porn. Edging is a type of masturbation; doesn't have anything to do with porn.

    In any case, don't do it.
