Good News For You Geezers - Not So Good For You Younguns...

In a study published this past January in BJU International, researchers found that frequent masturbation in young men raised the risk for prostate cancer but that frequent masturbation in older men lowered the risk. Sexual intercourse did not affect prostate cancer risk.

The researchers theorize that it may not be the masturbation itself which is increasing risk of prostate cancer in men who masturbate frequently in their 20s and 30s. Men who masturbate more may do so because they have high levels of male sex hormones -- and young men genetically predisposed to have hormone-sensitive prostate cancer will be at higher risk if they have more male hormones. In men over age 50, the researchers theorize, frequent masturbation helps drain the prostate of fluids that may contain cancer-causing substances.

Won't having frequent sex drain the fluids the same as jerking off? I think these researchers ain't getting any.

Well, I'm double fucked. When I was in my 20's, I would have fucked a rattlesnake if I could have talked someone into holding its head - hell, I still would. Now that I'm a married middle aged guy, I'm as celibate as a Buddhist monk.

I might as well go ahead and dig a hole.
