Well, actually it is,...
Masturbation Linked to Cancer
Men who masturbate frequently in their 20s and 30s have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer.
Researchers at the University of Nottingham surveyed 800 men, about half of whom had suffered prostate cancer, and found that the more sexual activity they had engaged in as young adults, the more likely they were to have been stricken with the disease. While a higher rate of intercourse did contribute to this discrepancy, most of the difference was attributed to self-love.
On the other hand (pun intended), the same study suggests masturbation and sexual intercourse past the age of 40 may actually reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
Despite previous links to blindness and hairy palms, we fully expect masturbation to survive this latest PR problem.

Uh .... right. I guess that prostate cancer should be epidemic among band-camp kids then, right?
They told me I'd go blind (I stopped as soon as I needed glasses)...they never said I'd get cancer!
"BA" Thanks for this handy warning. Was this study done on a Bell Curve? Realist age 41
Geez, it's bad enough that your wives or gf's tell you no, now you have to tell your hand no as well!
Sorry, couldn't help myself. :p
So the moral of the story is once you start you have to keep going strong to reverse the damage...
Just gotta keep it up, I guess... It's like working out!
