Since we all participate on this board it goes without saying that we enjoy sex.

I was watching my local news earlier today and I heard something very interesting.

It seems that several Doctors have determined that  having sex regularly is good for your health, both men and women.

It seems that having sex regularly ie 3-4 times a week is good for the heart. Thirty minutes of fairly continous sex burns off 230 calories, and is equivalent to 30 minutes on a treadmill.

In addition, having sex regularly releases endorphins that help combat depresion, as well as release of built up hormones.

But here's the kicker. Having sex regularly helps build up the immune system.

Now don't shoot the messenger. I saw this on TV.

It just one more reason these anti prostitution laws are ludicrous.

So, ladies, it seems that you are providing much more of a public service than we all realized. For that I thank you.

If you do not know him he was a fighter in the 1940's. He used to have to crunch to make the weight limit at the last minute before a fight. He used to have sex with his wife in a steamroom or sauna for quick weight loss. However, this is said to be dangerous for both parties.

only to conclude the obvious.

Just like something I heard on the radio a couple of years ago, that said research had finally concluded that holding and cuddling an infant is shown to comfort them. Well, no shit!

Are we not humans anymore?
I don't remember who or when, but someone asked me ideally, how often I would like to have sex, and I answered at LEAST once, maybe twice a day, and it was disputed! Ridiculed, thrown out!

i saw the same story on CNN ... actually the real kicker is that the study found that the men who "cheated" on their wives with a mistress did NOT show signs of stress reduction or a lowered risk of heart disease etc

so it appears there was an "ethical" slant to the results of the study ... evidently if you have sex aplenty with your S.O. you'll live long and prosper and yada yada yada ... but if you cheat on her then you will not reap the benefits of sexual hyperactivity

relationship guilt at work
