[Guest man2man4u40]

I knew there was a good reason that I couldn't do this enough when I was a horny teen...

I hope sucking cock does the same for throat cancer. }(

Damn! I just read this article on Netscape News and raced over here to add it to the recent threads on masturbation, but of course someone beat me to it. If the theory is good, then I should have a very healthy prostate indeed.

More PC Bullshit

 

I strongly supsect that this has more to do this the effects of stimuation of the prostate and orgasm than the healing power of the hand. Sex is good however you get it. But that is not PC.

This even made Jay Leno's monologue last night.

 

His comment: "If masturbation helps prevent prostate cancer, THERE WOULD BE NO PROSTATE CANCER!"

RE: More PC Bullshit

 

Actually, the study didn't look at frequency of sexual activity in general, because although getting fucked may stimulate the prostate, it introduces complicating factors, such as infections or damage from being pounded. No one ever caught an infection from masturbating.
