8. May Make Prostate Cancer Less Likely
Getting down may help ward off prostate cancer.
Men who ejaculated frequently (at least 21 times a month) were less likely to get prostate cancer during one study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
You don’t need a partner to reap this benefit: Sexual intercourse, nocturnal emission, and masturbation were all part of the equation – it’s great for guys to have options.
It’s not clear that sex was the only reason that mattered in that study. Lots of factors affect cancer risk. But more sex won’t hurt – and if it does you’re going it wrong (or right – whatever floats your boat as they say in the classics).
