Fapstronaut

Fapstronauts, of course, are easy to make sport of.

“Some Fapstronauts are here to improve their interpersonal relationships, whether it be for a marriage, a relationship, or single life,” Rhodes said.

Meanwhile, r/NoFap’s front page encourages new fapstronauts to visit the subreddit r/Fapstronauts which serves as a noticeboard connecting r/NoFap users with accountability partners.

The website NoFap, an offshoot of a popular Reddit message board founded by a now-retired Google contractor, provides community members (“fapstronauts”) a program to quit “fapping”—masturbating.
