Masturbation could bring hay fever relief for men

Spring is here and with it come the woes of hay fever. Never fear,
however, as there may be a quick and pleasurable treatment to clear
those bunged noses, for guys at least – a well-timed ejaculation.

That's what Sina Zarrintan, a neurologist from the Tabriz Medical
University in Iran proposes, anyway. The logic behind the proposal is
based on the fact that the nose and the genitals are both connected to
the same part of the nervous system that controls certain reflexes –
the sympathetic nervous system.

A blocked nose is caused by swollen and inflamed nasal blood vessels,
irritated by an infection or pollen in the air. But during
ejaculation, the sympathetic nervous system constricts blood vessels
across the body. That should soothe the swollen nasal blood vessels,
freeing the airway for normal breathing, according to Zarrintan.

He hasn't yet performed clinical trials to test the hypothesis, but if
it works, it could have many benefits over decongestant drugs,
Zarrintan says, which have been known to contribute to hypertension.
"Furthermore, if used for more than two or three days, they can
actually make congestion worse," he adds.

Take as needed

He suggests masturbating or having sex whenever the symptoms are bad
enough to warrant another ejaculation. "It can be done [from] time-to-
time to alleviate the congestion and the patient can adjust the number
of intercourses or masturbations depending on the severity of the
symptoms," he says.

The theory is not without its critics, however. Mohammad Amin
Abolghassemi Fakhree from Tabriz University in Iran, believes the
disadvantages of ejaculation outweigh the possible benefits.

"There are some limitations in using ejaculation or masturbation as
treatment of nasal congestion, such as not being applicable out of
home and not having any sex partner", he writes in a response to the
proposal.

No-one has yet argued that it makes your palms hairy.

Getting the prostaglandins out of body by any means is always
beneficial and more natural than inhibiting them with drugs such as
NSAIDs.

Sex has been recommended as a "Home Remedy" for
sinus congestion for at least 100 years, and probably longer.
Interesting that someone from Iran "rediscovered" that...

Smile, then you make a self fullfilling prophecy of it, no?

The role of nutrition in sex as a practice, or lack thereof, is a proper
area for discussion. Unless one would rather avoid what is a problem area.

Everything boils down to sex even if the religious people are in
denial (in fact they are the worst hidden perverts) ... From the
scientific (biochemical) point of view sex is the same as exercise or
excretion of processed food ... You can never understand and uncover
the molecular basis of aging unless you include the procreation/
reproduction in your analysis.

Boy Scouts' 'Perversion Files' released, several local men involved

A bombshell for the Boy Scouts of America as twenty years worth of
secret files on men suspected of child sex abuse in the organization
now open for the public to read. We're learning some are from Central
PA.

The Oregon Supreme Court ordered the release of the "perversion
files."

They contain names of over 1200 scout leaders and volunteers accused
of child sex abuse between 1965 and 1985.

The Boy Scouts say the purpose of the files was to keep child
molesters out of the organization. But abuse victims say the documents
didn't protect them.

“I do want to speak for all the victims that can't speak,” stated an
emotional Tom Stewart. “Scouting does have some good points. However,
right now it's a very dangerous program for young boys.”

The Boy Scouts of America President admits the organization did not do
enough to prevent abuse.

They now use computer background checks on all volunteers. As we said,
a number of people on that list are from our area.

Study: Masturbation May Prevent Prostate Cancer

Men who frequently masturbate appear to have a lower risk of
developing prostate cancer, Australian researchers reported.

Researchers from the Cancer Council of Victoria found that men who
masturbated more than five times each week were one-third less likely
to develop the cancer.

The study surveyed 1,000 men who developed prostate cancer and 1,250
who did not, and all were between the ages of 20 and 50, according to
a report on Monday on the gay and lesbian news site PlanetOut.

Researchers told the BBC last week that the prostate produces one of
the fluids involved in ejaculation and that frequent masturbation
appears to flush out carcinogens.

Sexual intercourse may not have the same effect because it increases
the risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease, which could
raise the risk of cancer, the Web site reported.

BBC super-pedophile Jimmy Savile was a ''devout Catholic''

Savile, who described himself as a devout Catholic,was made a Knight
Commander of St Gregory the Great by Pope John Paul II in 1990 for his
charity work.

Knight Commander of St Gregory the Great by Pope John Paul II in 1990
for his charity work.

The honour is awarded to Catholics, and on occasion non-Catholics, who
have demonstrated “pre-eminent” service to their faith, community, or
the work of the Vatican.

Other recipients have included Rupert Murdoch, the billionaire media
tycoon, Sir Matt Busby, the former Manchester United Manager, and John
Hume, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Northern Ireland politician.

However, senior Roman Catholic clergy in Britain feel that the Vatican
should look at whether it can do something to recognise its disgust at
the “deeply shocking” series of allegations of child sexual abuse made
against the former Jim’ll Fix It presenter.

Church sources said there was no established process to remove a Papal
honour posthumously because the award dies with the recipient.

The last time that I checked, a Catholic priest equates to being a
pedophile!
