New trend 'nutmaxxing' shows men taking extreme measures for 'enhanced ejaculations'

Ladies and gentlemen, a new sex trend has emerged on the internet – one that involves men consuming various supplements in order to 'optimise their load'.

Strangely named sex and relationship trends are nothing new in the era of late-stage internet we're currently living in; with phrases such as 'roaching', 'spider-webbing' and 'snowmanning' are just a few examples which have cropped up across the past couple of years.

However, this latest one arguably takes the cake.

Enter 'nutmaxxing'.

Likely inspired by the trend 'looksmaxxing', nutmaxxing is all about men optimising the amount of ejaculation they can produce while having sex.

Interest in nutmaxxing and nutmaxxers traces back to a deep dive explored by GQ last month, with the phrase since spreading like wildfire in the weeks since.

Nutmaxxing explained

For anyone who's interested, the online nutmaxxer community lives on the subreddit r/CumBiggerLoads, a 47,000 person strong corner of the internet where men get together and share tips on how they can optimise their load.

Contributors using their bodies as test subjects have since determined a 'perfect recipe', which will apparently have you shooting 'monster loads' or 'Spider-Man webs'.

Now that you're aware about what nutmaxxing is, the natural next question is 'why?'.

Why are men spending their money ingesting numerous supplements, measuring how much spunk it helps them create and then sharing a rundown of the experiment online for anyone to read?

Well, mainly because why not but it's also part of a wider trend of 'self-optimisation', apparently.

One man, named Mike, interviewed by the outlet explained that he began experimenting with the output firing from his loins during lockdown, when he was quarantined with a girlfriend who was turned on by being fired on.

"I feel drained. I feel exhausted. I feel like I can’t satisfy this girl," he said "After once or twice a day, not much is coming out."

Explaining that this is what led him to nutmaxxing, Mike added: "Probably for like six months, I was experimenting with just different stacks [combinations of supplements] I would read about on Reddit."

While the dedication to maximising their load has certainly brought an online community together, research as to whether it's actually possible to increase your volume of cum isn't is thin on the ground.

"There is certainly a lot of interest in ejaculate volume," Dr Michael Eisenberg, a professor of urology at the Stanford School of Medicine, told the outlet, going on to add the data around using supplements is 'mixed'.

So it might be worth waiting a little longer before trying this one out at home.
