Fighting prostate cancer one tug at a time.

Link.

I know I’ve been doing my best to keep my prostate healthy!

The downside is, you’ll go blind.

So, is it just that, or does the real thing help, too?

I will live FOREVER.

“More than five times a week.”

Hmmm.

Lucy, let the client know I’ll be taking a half-day on Friday…

They say that intercourse mitigates the benefit because of the risk of STD’s.

I’m doing my part to keep my prostate healthy. Although to be honest I would still do it even if they said it caused prostate cancer.

Well it’s funny how all the old medical literature used to go into how debilitating it was. Young men were going to waste from the perfidious activity.

Well if you are in a stable relationship this is probably not much of a risk, and the frequent ejaculation flushing out carcinogens is the key, regardless of actual stimulus.
I am off home to ask my wife if she can help out with my new ‘Healthy Prostate, Happy husband’ program.

Hmmm, I read about a study … gosh, it must have been 20 or more years ago … that showed a high incidence of enlarged prostates and other prostate problems among Roman Catholic priests. I drew my own conclusion from that.

Yet the prostates of former altar boys are surprisingly normal.

If not a little bruised.

Heh. Reminds me of this joke:

The queen of England was visiting one of America’s top hospitals, and during her tour of the floors she passed a room where a male patient was masturbating. “Oh my god!”, said the Queen, “That’s disgraceful, what is the meaning of this???” The doctor leading the tour explains, “I’m sorry Your Highness, this man has a very serious condition where the testicles rapidly fill with semen. If he doesn’t do that five to ten times a day, they would burst and he would most likely die instantly.” “Oh, I am terribly sorry” said the Queen. On the next floor they passed a room where a young nurse was giving a patient a blow job. “Oh my God”, said the Queen, “What’s happening in there?” The Doctor replied, “Same problem, better health plan.”

I masturbate all the time to keep my prostate healthy. As a woman I feel the health of my prostate is one of the most important issues I will face in my future. Okay, so I don’t have a prostate, I just like touching myself and would like to have some kind of health benefit for it. :smiley:

Why is this news? There was a report saying exactly the same thing back in 2003.

As a matter of fact, the article you linked with seems to be using the same data (just rounded):

So. This is what it takes to convince the Straight Dope that Fox News is a credible source of information.

Scanning past this I read that as “sexual hobbits” and went to a very bad place.

Great, now I’m giving carcinogens to my sheets, my towels, the walls,my girlfriend’s body parts, the shower drain, the sink, the computer monitor, the mailbox, the door knob of the grocery store bathroom, the coffee pot at the office, the role of $1 bills I give to the homeless, and my roommate’s leftovers.

Too bad I’m too tired to do anything about it.

“Researchers told the BBC last week that the prostate produces one of the fluids involved in ejaculation and that frequent masturbation appears to flush out carcinogens.”

Next week’s headline: Researchers have determined that smoking spooje may cause cancer.

ETA: Ah, beaten to the punch.

How in the hell do you find actors to play $1 bills to give to the homeless?

If your spooje is smoking after you masturbate, I think you should go see your doctor straight away.
