WOO HOOOOOO!!!!


I hope this is true!

Bedding over 20 women slashes risk of getting aggressive tumours by 19%
Celibacy doubles the risk of the disease, researchers found
Having sex with more than 20 men also doubles risk of prostate cancer
This is compared to men who have never slept with another man
Having one male partner does not increase the risk of the disease


To protect against prostate cancer, take a lover - or 20.
According to a new study, men who sleep with multiple women are almost a third less likely to develop the disease.
Researchers found men who have more than 20 notches on their bedpost slashed their risk of prostate cancer by 28 per cent.
And the study also revealed that men who have slept with more than 20 women reduced their chances of getting the most aggressive tumours by 19 per cent.
Celibacy, on the other hand, doubles the risk of the disease.
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the UK, with 41,700 new cases diagnosed and 10,800 deaths each year.
The findings add to evidence that regular intercourse may flush out cancer causing chemicals as the prostate secretes the bulk of the fluid in semen.
It is the first study to suggest the number of female partners is what matters, rather than the amount of sex, or even masturbation.
But asked if it meant public health authorities will be encouraging men to sleep with many women in their lives to protect against prostate cancer, Professor Marie-Elise Parent replied: 'We are not there yet.'
Another theory for the protective effect of sex is it reduces calcifications in the prostate, a gland located between the bladder and the penis, just in front of the rectum.
Professor Parent, of the University of Montreal, said: 'It is possible that having many female sexual partners results in a higher frequency of ejaculations, whose protective effect against prostate cancer has been previously observed in cohort studies.'

Men who said they had never had sexual intercourse were almost twice as likely to be diagnosed with the disease as those who said they had.
According to some studies, the underlying mechanism of the preventative effect is in reducing the concentration of cancer causing substances in prostatic fluid, or lowering the production of crystal-like balls in the gland.
The age at which the participants lost their virginity, or the number of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) they had contracted, had no effect.
TESTING MEN FOR PROSTATE CANCER 'CAUSES HARM AND MAY NOT SAVE LIVES', EXPERTS WARN
Routine testing for prostate cancer in middle-aged men causes harm and may not save lives, warn experts.
The current blood test results in up to one in five men being wrongly told they have the disease, it is claimed.
Around half are over-diagnosed and given unpleasant or damaging treatment for slow-growing tumours that would not have caused problems during their lifetime.
Treatment for prostate cancer can leave men with significant complications, such as impotence and incontinence.
New guidelines being issued in Canada confirm a growing consensus that routine screening for men does not significantly reduce deaths from prostate cancer but can instead be harmful.
Prostate cancer is different to other cancers in that while some are aggressive, the majority do not cause any symptoms and men can survive without treatment.
But it is not possible to distinguish between the two types using the current blood test for prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a protein produced by the prostate where higher levels make cancer more likely.
Screening aims to identify early stage cancer before symptoms appear.
British experts have decided against launching a PSA screening programme for men because the potential harms outweigh the benefits.
Moreover, just 12 per cent reported having had at least one STI.
The results were obtained as part of the Montreal study PROtEuS (Prostate Cancer & Environment Study), in which 3208 men responded to a questionnaire on, amongst other things, their sex lives.
Of these, 1,590 were diagnosed with prostate cancer between September 2005 and August 2009, while the other 1,618 formed a control group.
Overall, the prostate cancer patients were twice as likely to have had a relative with the disease. But the evidence suggests the number of sexual partners affects the development of the tumour.
On the other hand, gay men who have had more than 20 male partners in their lifetime suffered a twofold higher risk of getting prostate cancer compared to those who had never slept with a man.
And their risk of developing less aggressive prostate cancer - which is more likely to respond to treatment and has a lower likelihood of spreading - increased sixfold compared to those who have had only one male partner, which had no effect on overall risk.
Professor Parent said: 'It could come from greater exposure to STIs, or it could be anal intercourse produces physical trauma to the prostate.'
She said having participants who were open about talking about their sexuality allowed the study to take place.
She said: 'We were fortunate to have participants from Montreal who were comfortable talking about their sexuality, no matter what sexual experiences they have had, and this openness would probably not have been the same twenty or thirty years ago.
'Indeed, thanks to them, we now know the number and type of partners must be taken into account to better understand the causes of prostate cancer.'
The research was published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology

Long after my body has evaporated around it, my prostate will endure.

The thing about prostate cancer is that it's an old man's disease: plenty of men have it, but it generally isn't what kills you.

Post: #4

Long story short, if you don't give your dick what he wants, he'll try to kill you.

Everytime I read such article I ask myself:
What if they're mixing cause and consequence?

For example, maybe that men who have 20+ notches have higher testosterone levels and thus have less chance to have X or Y disease?
(It's just an example, no knowledge about this hormon in here)

Probably mixed causes and consequences. Healthier men who are less sedentary are more likely to bed multiple women.

Exactly - would not see too much into it. The cancer rates of monks are very low too, but they are not exactly world-class Players.

Still - most PUAs & Players are in significantly better shape than their average counterparts. Many lift weights and eat more healthy to attract easier tighter hotter pussy. That counts probably more than the other reasons out there.

So... jerking off every day has the same effect?

Post: #9

The only effect I have noticed promiscuity has on health (supposing no STDs) is creating a weathered or "beat-up" look. This is probably because of the exposure to antibodies from so many different people.

It actually makes men more attractive, it gives them a sophisticated look of having lived a lot, but in women you get quite a fucked up effect. Think of prostitutes who look 10 years older than they are.

supposedly. I've read that something called 'prostate congestion' which is essentially it being all backed up, combined with lack of use makes it weak.

That aside though, this is like a goldmine for prostate cancer awareness. You know that whole 'save the tatas' campaign for breast cancer? "stop cancer, spread your legs' or 'sluts against prostate cancer' with the whole idea for chicks to give it up to reduce men's prostate cancer risk.

I've seen it argued many times within the community that being a slut makes women age faster, but I've never seen the slightest bit of scientific evidence for it.

Until we have scientific evidence to support this claim, I sure hope we aren't going down the path of confirmation bias.

As far as the aging factor with prostitutes, keep in mind that they had several other peripheral things that lead to aging namely:

Most are junkies (which is why they hoe in the 1st place)
Smoking
Drinking
Stress of the lifestyle

if this was true then the men fucking more than 20 men wouldn't have double the risk of getting prostate cancer.

it's a neat correlation but gives no real explanation.

Post: #15

Nonsense - but still:

Just reduced my cancer risk by +1.

"This is probably because of the exposure to antibodies from so many different people."

Hmm, interesting. More elaboration kind Sir.

Looks Like a hype article.
They have been saying that masturbation helps lower risk.
Now having sex with a much of women does it.

Sex with 20 women once vs sex with ten women twice vs.Sex with one woman twenty times.

No difference

I still think that mine is a very obvious and realistic explanation.

I hope I don't have to explain how sex between two men if fundamentally different then sex between a man and a woman.
