Fellatio & Breast Cancer
*LOL*  ....The guys are gonna love this one
(BW) -- Women who perform the act of fellatio on a regular basis, one to two times a week, may reduce their risk of breast cancer by up to 40 percent, a recent study found.
Doctors had never suspected a link between the act of fellatio and breast cancer, but new research being performed is starting to suggest that there could be an important link between the two.
In a study of over 15,000 women suspected of having performed regular fellatio over the past ten years, the researchers found that those actually having performed the act regularly, one to two times a week, had a lower occurance of breast cancer than those who had not. There was no increased risk, however, for those who did not regularly perform.
"I think it removes the last shade of doubt that fellatio is actually a healthy act," said Dr. B.J. Sooner of the Hopkins School of Medicine, who was not involved in the research. "I am surprised by these findings, but am also excited that the researchers may have discovered a relatively easy way to lower the occurance of breast cancer in women."
The University researchers stressed that, though breast cancer is relatively uncommon, any steps taken to reduce the risk would be a wise decision.
"Only with regular performance will your chances be reduced, so I encourage all women out there to make fellatio an important part of their daily routine," said Dr. Inserta Shafteer, one of the researchers. "Since the emergence of the research, I try to fellate at least once every other night to reduce my chances."
The study is reported in Friday's Journal of Medical Research.
In 1991, 43,582 women died of breast cancer, as reported by the National Cancer Institute.
Dr. Len Lictepeen, deputy chief medical officer for the American Cancer Group, said women should not overlook or "play down" these findings.
"This will hopefully change women's practice and patterns, resulting in a severe drop in the future number of cases," Lictepeen said.
Sooner said the research shows no increase in the risk of breast cancer in those who are, for whatever reason, not able to fellate regularly.
"There's definitely fertile ground for more research. Many have stepped forward to volunteer for related research now in the planning stages," he said.
Almost every woman is, at some point, going to perform the act of fellatio, but it is the frequency at which this event occurs that makes the difference, say researchers.
The reasearch consisted of two groups, 6,246 women ages 25 to 45 who had performed fellatio on a regular basis over the past five to ten years, and 9,728 women who had not. The group of women who had performed fellatio had a breast cancer rate of 1.9 percent and the group who had not had a breast cancer rate of 10.4 percent.
"The findings do suggest that there are other causes for breast cancer besides the absence of regular fellatio," Shafteer said. "It's a cause, not THE cause."

As a scientist, I have to agree strongly with the last point that it may be one cause of reduced breast cancer. Really guys, don't get too excited on this one <g> First of all, it's just a correlation (association vs. causation), and second of all, women who perform a high rate of fellatio are probably generally sexually active and less sexually inhibited. Research already indicates that people who hold in their emotions and deny their own needs are more likely to develop cancers of all kinds.
Still, not a bad thought... *smile*

With those doctor's names I expect Sharni to jump out and yell, "April Fool!" Of course, it's not April. Hmmmmmm.
Nice thought, though.

Sure wish I could convince my wife of that. I surly would return the favor just on the off chance that it had the same affect on males!!

Gees, thanks for the good news Lilith! Killjoy!
I suppose the next thing you're gonna tell us is that staring at boobs DOESN'T increase our lifespan?

Ok, Ok, let's keep in mind here that it's not necessarily FALSE - it's just that the study was never actually DONE!
