Is *** Necessary?
The Benefits Certainly Seem to Outweigh the Risks

Oct. 14 — Fans of abstinence had better be sitting down.


”Saving yourself” before the big game, the big business deal, the big hoedown or the big bakeoff may indeed confer some moral benefit. But corporeally it does absolutely zip. There’s no evidence it sharpens your competitive edge.

The best that modern science can say for ***ual abstinence is that it’s harmless when practiced in moderation. Having regular and enthusiastic ***, by contrast, confers a host of measurable physiological advantages, be you male or female. (This assumes that you are engaging in *** without contracting a ***ually transmitted disease.)

In one of the most credible studies correlating overall health with ***ual frequency, Queens University in Belfast, Northern Ireland, tracked the mortality of about 1,000 middle-aged men over the course of a decade. The study was designed to compare persons of comparable circumstances, age and health.

Its findings, published in 1997 in the British Medical Journal, were that men who reported the highest frequency of orgasm enjoyed a death rate half that of the laggards.

The Many Benefits of ***

Other studies (some rigorous, some less so) purport to show that having *** even a few times a week has an associative or causal relationship with the following:

Improved sense of smell: After ***, production of the hormone prolactin surges. This in turn causes stem cells in the brain to develop new neurons in the brain’s olfactory bulb, its smell center.

Reduced risk of heart disease: In a 2001 follow-up to the Queens University study mentioned above, researchers focused on cardiovascular health. Their finding? That by having *** three or more times a week, men reduced their risk of heart attack or stroke by half.

In reporting these results, study co-author Shah Ebrahim displayed the well-loved British gift for understatement: “The relationship found between frequency of ***ual intercourse and mortality is of considerable public interest.”

Weight loss, overall fitness: ***, if nothing else, is exercise. A vigorous bout burns some 200 calories — about the same as running 15 minutes on a treadmill or playing a spirited game of squash. The pulse rate, in a person aroused, rises from about 70 beats per minute to 150, the same as that of an athlete putting forth maximum effort.

British researchers have determined that the equivalent of six Big Macs can be worked off by having *** three times a week for a year. Muscular contractions during intercourse work the pelvis, thighs, buttocks, arms, neck and thorax.

*** also boosts production of testosterone, which leads to stronger bones and muscles. Men’s Health magazine has gone so far as to call the bed the single greatest piece of exercise equipment ever invented.

Reduced depression: Such was the implication of a 2002 study of 293 women. American psychologist Gordon Gallup reported that ***ually active participants whose male partners did not use condoms were less subject to depression than those whose partners did. One theory of causality: Prostoglandin, a hormone found only in semen, may be absorbed in the female genital tract, thus modulating female hormones.

Pain relief: Immediately before orgasm, levels of the hormone oxytocin surge to five times their normal level. This in turn releases endorphins, which alleviate the pain of everything from headache to arthritis to even migraine. In women, *** also prompts production of estrogen, which can reduce the pain of PMS.

Less frequent colds and flu: Wilkes University in Pennsylvania says individuals who have *** once or twice a week show 30 percent higher levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A, which is known to boost the immune system.

Better bladder control: Heard of Kegel exercises? You do them, whether you know it or not, every time you stem your flow of urine. The same set of muscles is worked during ***.

A happier prostate? Some urologists believe they see a relationship between infrequency of ejaculation and cancer of the prostate. The causal argument goes like this: To produce seminal fluid, the prostate and the seminal vesicles take such substances from the blood as zinc, citric acid and potassium, then concentrate them up to 600 times. Any carcinogens present in the blood likewise would be concentrated.

Rather than have concentrated carcinogens hanging around causing trouble, it’s better to evict them. Regular old *** could do the job. But if the flushing of the prostate were your only objective, masturbation might be a better way to go, especially for the non-monogamous male.

Having *** with multiple partners can, all by itself, raise a man’s risk of cancer by up to 40 percent. That’s because he runs an increased risk of contracting ***ual infections. So, if you want the all the purported benefits of flushing with none of the attendant risk, go digital. A study recently published by the British Journal of Urology International asserts that men in their 20s can reduce by a third their chance of getting prostate cancer by ejaculating more than five times a week.

Risks of Too Little, Too Much ***?

While possession of a robust appetite for *** — and the physical ability to gratify it — may not always be the cynosure of perfect health, a reluctance to engage can be a sign that something is seriously on the fritz, especially where the culprit is an infirm erection.

Dr. J. Francois Eid, a urologist with Weill Medical College of Cornell University and New York Presbyterian Hospital, observes that erectile dysfunction is an extension of the vascular system. A lethargic member may be telling you that you have diseased blood vessels elsewhere in your body.

“It could be a first sign of hypertension or diabetes or increased cholesterol levels. It’s a red flag that you should see your doctor.” Treatment and exercise, says Eid, can have things looking up again: “Men who exercise and have a good heart and low heart rate, and who are cardio-fit, have firmer erections. There very definitely is a relationship.”

But is there such a thing as too much ***?

The answer, in purely physiological terms, is this: If you’re female, probably not. If you’re male? You betcha.

Dr. Claire Bailey of the University of Bristol says there is little or no risk of a woman’s overdosing on ***. In fact, she says, regular sessions can not only firm a woman’s tummy and buttocks but also improve her posture.

Dr. George Winch Jr., an obstetrician/gynecologist in Elko, Nev., concurs. If a woman is pre-menopausal and otherwise healthy, says Winch, her having an extraordinary amount of intercourse ought not to pose a problem.

“I don’t think women can have too much intercourse,” he says, “so long as no ***ually transmitted disease is introduced and there’s not an inadvertent pregnancy. Sometimes you can have a lubrication problem. If you have that, there can be vaginal excoriation — vaginal scrape.”

Women who abstain from *** run some risks. In postmenopausal women, these include vaginal atrophy. Winch has a middle-aged patient of whom he says: “She hasn’t had intercourse in three years. Just isn’t interested. The opening of her vagina is narrowing from disuse. It’s a condition that can lead to dysparenia, or pain associated with intercourse.”

As for men, urologist Eid says it’s definitely possible to get too much of a good thing, now that drugs such as Viagra and Levitra have given men far more staying power than may actually be good for them.

The penis, says Eid, is wonderfully resilient. But everything has its limits. Penile tissues, if given too roistering or prolonged a pummeling, can sustain damage. In cases you’d just as soon not hear about, permanent damage.

“Yes,” says Eid, “It is possible for a young man who is very forceful and who likes rough ***, to damage his erectile tissue.” The drugs increase rigidity; moreover, they make it possible for a man to have second and third orgasms without having to wait out intermission.

“I see it in pro football players,” says Eid. “They use Viagra because they’re so ***ually active. What they demand of their body is unreasonable. It’s part of playing football: you play through the pain.” This type of guy doesn’t listen to his body. He takes a shot of cortisone, and keeps on going. And they have *** in similar fashion.”

There’s a reason the penis, in its natural state, undergoes a period of flaccidity: That’s when it takes a breather. The blood within it is replenished with oxygen. “During an erection,” explains Eid, “very little blood flows to the penis. During thrusting, pressure can go as high as 200 mil of water. Zero blood flows into penis at that time.”

To absorb oxygen, the tissue must become relaxed. “If you do not allow the penis to rest, then the muscle tissue does not get enough oxygen. The individual gets prolonged erections, gets decreased oxygen to tissue, and could potentially suffer priapism,” adds Eid. (We recommend you get a medical encyclopedia and look it up.) “The muscle becomes so engorged, it’s painful. Pressure inside starts to increase. Cells start dying. More pressure and less blood flow. Eventually the muscle dies. Then there’s scarring. That’s why it’s considered an emergency.”

Sana kinuha ako as Volunteer sa Study nila, har~har~har~

[eyescube]

here are some info. i could share when it comes to human ***uality...

click on the graph... entitled frequency of intercourse on Couples

[eyescube]

part 2

heres an attachement that depict a graph frequency on doing the so called "sariling kayod"

[ortitzrl]

its a shame pilipinos still dont know about how not to ejaculate and recyxle their sperm from the penis upto the brain and down to the solar plexos.if nofilipinos done it ,then they mess 1/2 of their life.
your sperm will only be ejaculated to the woman you want to get pregnant.so dont waste that preciuos power. The sperm is power man.It create humans, dont you believed it?really ,you mess 1/2 of your life!
if there is no woman around, just recycle your sperm it is still there inside you.
Again you dont know how?
You really messed this time whole of your life.

[uls]

its been proven in studies that married men live longer than single/separated/divorced men. maybe its coz married men are happier, get more ***, and they got someone to take care of them

[Flagg]

Well of course it is necessary! It is also good for the economy!

[ts1n1ta]

*taas kamay* uhh... question lang... How do you recycle sperm???

Recycle sperm from the penis to the brain?

Pwede bang paki-explain nito hindi ko masyadong maintindihan.

[Jun aka Pekto]

I agree with those findings. I get it a couple times a week and don't need no stinkin boner pills.

As for recycling sperm. I thought it referred to a female using it as a mike.... Although there's no way the spunk is going to reach the brain. The stomach, maybe. But the brain?

[Flagg]

Sir ortitzrl, curious lang po ha, how do you do that? Do you.... Yaiks!!! Ayoko makita!!! Wag po, wag po!!!!

[wren]

to me, good *** and a good massage are the best stress relievers. if you get both at the same time, i'd say you're in heaven on earth. why do you think those oriental massage places are so popular?

[oldblue]

Pwede bang paki-explain nito hindi ko masyadong maintindihan.

hehehe ako man natatalinghagaan (tama ba spelling)

Kailangan pa bang i-memorize 'yan?
Dont know about you guys but I had a long session last night.
And I'm still quite high, hehehe

*taas kamay* uhh... question lang... How do you recycle sperm???

based on my understanding of what the poster said. this is how recycling should be done...

a. during the point of almost ejaculating, pull out or withdraw;
b. ejaculate using the "mariang palad" method.... put it in a container or something.
c. use a straw;
d. snort it.

it goes directly to the brain...

[margaux]

naguluhan ako sa grammar :bwahaha:
