According to this (Masturbating Lowers Prostate Cancer Risk - Study ) article, five times a week lowers your risk by one third. Think what a five a day will do.
When I get my new wife moved here, this isn’t going to be much of an issue for me any more, but I’m glad these past 40 years have been involved in very healthy endeavor.

              Good news indeed, thought I was going to go blind!
sidebar  pup needs a “nut job” 9 months old, and not getting any from the 13 yr old bitch at the house. 
135#'s is the cost.  Snip snip.  No puppy cancer?
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
            
            
              And here I was thinking just having tits lowered my risk of developing prostate cancer!

              Ok, y’all are right. The title should have been "Great news, guys !! … "
Maybe it helps you ladies in another way. More study is necessary.

              Q. What is the definition of a tough competitor?
A. In a masturbation contest, he finishes first, third, and ninth.

              Hey hooooonnnnnneeeeeeey!  It says masterbation and not sexual intercourse!  Am I in trouble?
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
            
            
              No, no. You’ll notice that they say from 20 to 50 years old. So, it’s been my prior effort that is the healthy part.
Afterwards, it’s just for the fun of it.
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Shew!!  You REALLY had me worried!!!
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
            
            
              That would have worried me too.

If only Rudy Guiliani masturbated more instead of going after Judi Nathan, not only his prostate might be healthy…he just might be senator.
