Beating the Odds

It has come to light that men who ejaculate more than five times a week are a third less likely to develop prostate cancer later in life. Recent studies show that cancer-causing cells in the prostate don't build up in men who masturbate regularly, particularly in their 20s. That's masturbating, not sexual intercourse; with fucking there's always that possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted infection, which increases the risk of cancer. A researcher puts it simply: "It's a prostatic stagnation hypothesis. The more you flush the ducts out, the less there is to hang around and damage the cells that line them." Now here's a picture – go flush those ducts. (BBC News)
